Oof. Hard to say. I did it for so long and so early in life that I’m not even sure what would have happened had I not done it.

I don’t like mental meds though. And I don’t think any of them ever helped me. They have always either from making me extremely risky behavior prone or just numb where the days blend together and months go by in the blink of an eye.

I was still a kid. At my first session I opened up hard. I spoke nonstop for the whole hour.

When I was walking out I asked them “now what?” And they replied “Now it’s a long battle”.

That stuck with me.

What are we going to do about it?

Quit whining about it and make a good community outside of those.

Be a good community member yourself.

I see myself coming less and less to Lemmy due to how monotopic this place is. And how aggressively stupid people here can be.

What was the issue there ?

Why don’t you try saying something critical of China but not racist, and see if it gets removed?

Me? Sure.

The Tianamen Square Massacre was shameful.

From what I’ve read, in our instance, it’s being critical of China that gets you banned.

But I don’t know how much of that is people being straight-up racist/xenophobic and then conflating it with being critical.

The European mods actively said they don’t agree with free speech

Uno reverse them and tell them to shut the fuck up then.

Tried it, tons of apps don’t work and battery life was ass.

Same. And it’s not just the amount of content.

The amount of times I’ve had a reply with someone obviously trying to be pedantic and argumentative saying “define common thing” is off the charts.

It’s not a hard problem to understand.

The Democratic Party is a right wing party already as it is. Center-right at best. And they are trying to court the fascist vote.

They brought the Cheneys on stage for fucks sake.

Problem is that Trump does fascism better than they ever could. So they are not getting those votes. But they are alienating the left vote and those people won’t show up.

In addition to that the demonization of men by the online left is pushing the newer generations right.

A random man is not more dangerous than a random bear.

Pushing shit like this in the face of impressionable young people does harm and makes sure they know you do not have their back. So why should they have yours ?

The title is so tone deaf that made me not wanna read the rest of the article.

Kamala didn’t represent hope. She represented the “nothing will fundamentally change” stance.

Nah. But it’s already everything I need it to be.

Badass.

iPhone 16 pro. Too early to tell but this might be my favorite ever.

Previous ones I also really enjoyed were all nexus or pixels but they all inevitably shit themselves after a couple years of use. Most recent one pixel 7 just decided it was gonna drain 6% battery per hour while idling out of nowhere. And nothing I tried fixed it. And I tried a lot.

Mlem looks the best but it feels choppy as hell. So I’m using voyager instead still quite good and runs smooth.

Just proton. VPN + drive + pass is great.

Not often. Mostly because the official app is so unbearably trash.

I was thinking Linux, neurodivergence, and communism.

Of course not. People discuss like three topics in here.

Proton pass.

Used bitwarden for a long time til I lost my 2fa and lost the account. I also lost proton’s 2fa and they helped me get the account back. Been a customer since.
