Anyone trying to spin this positively is delusional. This was a very, very damning performance by Biden. It doesn’t matter what Trump said or didn’t say. Dems are saying it was bad, donors are saying it, even onlookers from abroad.

I hope they do replace him, otherwise this looks more and more like another Trump presidency. I can’t fucking believe I’m saying that.

Any chance Bernie would step in? Newsom wants future run, though im sure people will be trying to see if he or anyone can step in. He likely won’t risk it.

Dems sticking with an octogenarian was dumb. It’s like lessons never learned. They fight the progressive’s to defend the status quo.

You can downvote, but we will all be wringing our hands for the next five months.

Think they’re so self-righteous, in reality just cruel and evil.

Mossad being involved would not surprise me at this point, that includes his ‘suicide’.

^Holds finger right near your eyeball and says, but i’m not touching you, see, i’m not touching you.

Nothing dumb about it, it’s actually quite on point. They didn’t mention price points or comparing speakers, but that the actual sounds heard from any speakers in a room depends greatly on room treatment (things like reflections, absorption, standing waves). This is where good usage of dsp room correction can help, along with rugs.

The younger kids are using it as well, it’s a problem starting at an earlier age. I don’t see how chat gtp is gonna help those kids learn. AI sellers want us to think differently. But like silicon valley, their kids are not gonna be using it. Sell it to the poor schools as the future!

Yeah, we don’t need higher education, just low skilled workers. That’ll sort things out. /s

But over time looks like the snake eating it’s own tail as AI iterates over everything. Someone will have to create fuzzy AI to dilute the writing down.

https://democracyjournal.org/arguments/the-untold-history-of-charter-schools/ … In the 1970s, deregulation was the name of the game. Efforts to deregulate major sectors of government took root under Ford and Carter, and continued to escalate throughout the 1980s under Reagan. From banking and energy to airlines and transportation, liberals and conservatives both worked to promote deregulatory initiatives spanning vast sectors of public policy. Schools were not immune. Since at least the late 1970s, political leaders in Minnesota had been discussing ways to reduce direct public control of schools. A private school voucher bill died in the Minnesota legislature in 1977, and Minnesota’s Republican governor Al Quie, elected in 1979, was a vocal advocate for school choice. Two prominent organizations were critical in advancing school deregulation in the state. One was the Minnesota Business Partnership, comprised of CEOs from the state’s largest private corporations; another was the Citizens League, a powerful, centrist Twin Cities policy group. When the League spoke, the legislature listened—and often enacted its proposals into law. In 1982 the Citizens League issued a report endorsing private school vouchers on the grounds that consumer choice could foster competition and improvement without increasing state spending, and backed a voucher bill in the legislature in 1983. The Business Partnership published its own report in 1984 calling for “profound structural change” in schooling, with recommendations for increased choice, deregulation, statewide testing, and accountability. The organized CEOs would play a major role throughout the 1980s lobbying for K-12 reform, as part of a broader agenda to limit taxes and state spending. …

Yeah, it’s a marketing thing, with some tax loophole stuff. Charters were pushed by people looking to privatize and destroy public education. Mostly conservatives and neoliberals.

Just reminding folks that just because it’s flatpak’d, doesn’t mean it’s sandboxed. But they probably should add some general click here for more info.

Yeah on the not perfect bit, like Myanmar. All religions are prone to violence.

This is something hopeful, I applaud them 🙏 👏

Yeah, but it’s something that wasn’t there before so it matters. Current and past gens have fucked it ALL up so these kids are part of something positive. And future lies with them.

Greece had been effed since the austerity economics were placed on them due to the great big financial crisis where boys were declared to be too big to fail. Remember only regular working people are allowed to fail.

So better not to add it all??

The problem is what and how history is taught and whitewashed and propagandized. Like teaching school children the upside of slavery.

This is truth. Destruction of public education by conservatives, neoliberals and privateers fits nicely with destruction of workers and unions. It’s control of your population, which is funneled through a view of them as simply future workers for the owner class. I dont know why u would want to be a teacher in a country that just doesn’t give a shit. UK is facing similar.

And if u think majority of those not-for-profit charter aren’t founded by people in it for the money, ive got a bridge and can give u a good price… https://www.forbes.com/sites/petergreene/2021/03/19/report-how-a-non-profit-charter-school-can-be-run-for-profit/

Its like many wealthy people who seek and do get rich off tax payer money, like elon did with tesla.

BJP/RSS - right wing fundamentalist zealots have taken over India. It’s gross, it’s dangerous and frightening. It’s what we hope America will not become with Trump and Heritage types.

Just about all the products sold on amazon.

first and foremost, life is long and you have time. second, you most certainly are not alone as there are many, many peeps feeling exactly as you are. technology has an isolating effect in terms of irl relationships. the porn addiction is a symptom of this and when it all just becomes meat, it makes it harder to have actual physical intimacy with another human being. third, as others have said, you are suffering from depression and then nothing feels good, that’s what is known as anhedonia.

admitting something is wrong is an important first step. talking to someone and seeking treatment would be helpful if you are finding it hard to figure out on your own. the last two cents i have is slow your roll, your being and breathe. don’t dismiss the little things, the small rituals and def get outside.
