This is great stuff, thanks!
I’m mostly half-serious.
This is great stuff, thanks!
Thanks a lot for the suggestions!
This comment alone is making me interested in Greek mythology. I’d like to know more. Any reading suggestions toward that end?

Water? You mean that stuff that goes in toilets?
Does anyone have this meme template?
I’ve gotten back into recreational reading. Started by reading very easy material at a designated time (young adult literature and manga before dinner). Also got into the book review side of YouTube for inspiration of what to read next. The former practice built up the habit and the latter gave motivation to read some of the great works out there. Just finished War and Peace and I’m now going tearing through my science fiction backlog.
Hey you, reading this right now. You just drank water didn’t you?
There would be no religious wars, honor killings, more freedom, no religious leaders abusing their powers, no waste of labor and money on religious things, etc. It may seem that we would be more educated and have better understanding.
Removing the word religion from this excerpt wouldn’t remove any of these problems. We would still squabble over territory, resources, and ideological differences. To give a non-religious analogy: if a time traveler went back and killed Hitler, Germany would still retain all the problems from WW1 and the Weimar Republic that were ripe for a dictatorship.
I really don’t like Reddit’s attitude as a corporation. The sense of entitlement from a user driven content aggregator is insane.

Not a Starcraft player, but in my experience (Age of Empires, Overwatch) the solution is to stop caring about your rank and just focus on improving where you can.
Age of Empires 2. It’s like watching a live chess match. The more I learn about the game, the more my own gameplay feels clumsy. Thankfully, the aoe community is larger than ever, even though it’s been 20 years since release.
Israel in particular, yes. Before the debate everyone was criticizing Biden for continuing to financially support a genocide.
But I guess nobody cares about Palestine now.
Also good to note that the Constitution doesn’t mandate the Senate convict the president under any circumstance other than treason.
Shhh, don’t mention other countries. Nothing to see here, just keep listening to the establishment democrats telling us anything other than Biden is impossible. And then four years from now the fight for democracy will continue.
Good domestic policy. Bad foreign policy. Or have we all collectively forgot about the wars?
Edit: You all were very loudly criticizing Biden on Israel a few weeks ago, but fine, I guess Lemmy has moved on.
Guess we’ll have to wait and see. If Biden stays in and young people don’t show up to vote, everyone will blame voters and not the DNC; even though the entire argument for Biden is his supposed electability.
We’re in such dangerous waters right now that we might as well throw caution to the wind and try to get a woman elected POTUS. At least that would energize the base.
What a joke that turned out to be
After the reddit exodus I started creating memes for the first time and posting them on Lemmy. I’ve learned that it’s harder to be funny than I thought. Also a lot of time/effort and I have actually important things in my life that I focus on. Reposting was also kinda fun but what’s the point really
