There's this app called cranky uncle and it goes through things like this and then helps to you learn how to identify them. It was developed by a university researchers in Australia with the aim of improving people's ability to recognise misinformation
Firstly I just want to say that this is really interesting post and I love that you've asked this question. Secondly, as someone who experienced child abuse I don't know where to even start in answering this question because as an adult I'm now in a space where I can actually feel my feelings and express them safely.
I think life is maybe similar to being in a long term relationship. There are times when every little thing life does annoys you or times where it's just eh and you realise you need to actively spice things up. And then there are times when you are completely overcome by joy thinking about how much you love life, how much you've been through together, and how excited you are to spend the rest of your lives together.
If you're looking for a suggestion on spicing things up I highly recommended jumping into some existential philosophy. It's like the intellectual equivalent of a roller coaster I guess.
Or just a classic socialist democracy would do fine. Doesn't even need to be dystopian just you know like what they have in Norway and shit.
His mum was a single parent disability pensioner as well. Another thing he's never mentioned.
I felt this way at first but the more time you spend away from reddit the more you realise how toxic of a place it is. I initially had planned to stay on there because I have communities on reddit that don't exist here. But I just couldn't do. The vibe on kbin / lemmy is just so much better and it feels refreshing to explore the internet in a new way. Reddit feels stagnant and gross in comparison now.
I was lucky to lock in a fixed rate with nectr for 12 months. Otherwise I'd be sitting in the dark.
Hopefully a step in the right direction towards a more sensible approach to drugs overall.
The LNP are seen as the boomer party and it's going to be difficult for them to shake that. Plus making houses more affordable and helping those who are struggling under capitalism doesn't really mesh with their whole vibe. Conserving capital and distributing capital more equally are somewhat mutually exclusive.
I'm having a similar experience in realising how much toxicity I've normalised on reddit. Going back on there now feels so absurd.
They'll be the first to complain when the quality of their reddit experience starts to noticeably decline. I don't know how many people here have used the reddit app, but it's pretty shit. Especially after the recent changes. And personally I don't really want to use an app that limits moderation and has excessive advertising.
