Or just never taught respect.

I swear I saw a study that basically came to the conclusion that there is a distinct curve in technological literacy where younger generations are used to tech “just working” and not knowing how to navigate anything outside of app-based interface. Take all of this with a handful of salt bc I don’t have source on hand.

As an Ohioan I’ve been so incredibly stressed about this special election. If it passes, I fully believe it will be the reason for an increasingly polarized state where only the special interests get the spotlight and any kind of grassroots efforts from the actual populace won’t have any chance of success.

How much yarn does a project like this take?

I’m also a woman from Ohio and a little worried about how few people I’ve talked to recently are aware of/ understand the magnitude of the upcoming special election.

Issue 1 would essentially take away majority representation in the state and only allow for special-interest and more polarized issues to come through.

I was going to recommend this app as well. The built in timer function is a godsend! Also love all the different recipes and that you can take notes in-app! It was a definite game changer for me when I want to mix things up.

Our metro parks are absolutely incredible!

Growing pains happen and I’m happy to be here to experience the growth of a (hopefully) new successful community! I honestly love all the updates bc it just means that there are real people here who care about the user experience and growing the overarching lemmy experience.
