I use 1440, which sums up daily news in a fact-based way and leaves out all opinion. It’s magical. It takes 10 minutes to read and I’m not bombarded by why “libtards are destroying america” or why “this ties back to trump destroying democracy” somehow.
Highly recommend it for daily news.
I’m assuming in a bid to conduct door-to-door preaching is what the title was supposed to say?
Nothing to report or add, I just appreciate you!
There’s a lot of reasons why, it’s the things you listed plus a lot more.
Same, but I’m also not concerned about FOSS, I just want a reliable app and sync is it.
We just have different ideas of what it means to be transphobic.
Ohhhh, that’s why I have to take those monthly security training quizzes, lol. I haven’t seen one on AI deepfakes though, I’m sure they’re coming.
This is easily ignored. Everyone will forget about it in a few weeks and nothing will change
It’s lemmy. Who cares
I know what it means, its just used incorrectly a lot, like it is here.
Ah yes someone has a different experience?? They must internally hate themselves. 🙄
I’m not omiting anything, just adding that some privilege comes along with the sexism.
Why’s that? People like me fine.
I’m a woman in STEM. I only went to a CC, so maybe there’s a difference there, but I didn’t experience much sexism in my time there.
I have experienced it at work, but usually from the younger, unsocialized men. Is it a problem? Sure, but I’ll take that over my bosses being sexist.
Also, along with the sexism does come some privilege. When I do something wrong, I tend to get taken easier on when it comes to punishment. I also am able to form… different (non-sexial) bonds with the higher ups. These dynamics are much different to any bonds I had with female bosses from my previous field of work, and they’re different than the bonds the higher ups have with my male counterparts. I can say that I don’t worry about being laid off or fired.
However, I’m also fairly certain that I have a sharp awareness of these bonds and how to manipulate them to get what I want.
Not trying to poo-poo any sexism claims, just that there’s also certainly a privilege to be had being a woman minority in a male-dominated field.
Interesting, I didn’t think about what for of chaos a disruption to a major geothermal pipe could cause.
Luckily, Icelanders is pretty good about keeping people alive during events like these.
My two was hit hard by the Thomas Fores, and while mine didn’t burn down, I know people who lost their homes to that fire. It’s pretty devastating, but they’re all doing well now. I hope it’s the same for these people.
What’s home insurance like in Iceland?
Specifically, the closing of schools during the pandemic, leading to mass amounts of children not having access to daily reading practice.
Most parents were not able to make up that time with their kids.
Yeah, how often are you looking for an update, OP?
What? Their fries are so good tho.
You’re making up a quiet part that you can’t possibly know is true, that’s the problem. You’re reading into something that’s not there. Again, you do you, but most people outside of the trans activist community aren’t going to agree, including some trNs people themselves.
Agreeing with someone isnt gobbling anything up, it’s just coming to the same conclusion and not believing that transphobia encompasses what she is.
The UK made a hard turn because they saw the damage that treating disphoria physically first and mentally second is having. There were dire consequences. I agree there’s going to be some overreach in response to the overreach from what more of the extreme activists have done. I think we’ll eventually get to a good place and figure it out, but until then, things will get rocky.
This is after Sweden, who was first to start the extreme treatments we’ve seen, pulled back as well.
What a dumb take.
