And it’s a start. Make public transportation easier to access. Find public education better. Don’t sic CPS on parents that let their children play outside.

If someone destroys your reputation with lies, that is character assassination.

If your reputation is destroyed by people stating facts, you’re just getting your comeuppance.

Love the way the local places tend not to have employees that have been so abused they lost all the light behind their eyes.

/makes a small mistake

“Why am I such a piece of shit? I don’t deserve anything nice because I’m the worst.”

I knew a fellow that was in his 80s that worked at the same shitty company I did. It was also pretty clear to me that he just couldn’t keep up. Very sweet guy too. Conscious of racism, opposed a lot of bad policies (and took direct action in his younger years).

He told me one day that he worked there so he could afford care for his wife. Soon after his wife passed, so did he. Didn’t really get to retire.

The Osbournes need to fuck all the way off.

lol. Like making a rent payment solely from the change found in your couch cushions.

I am disappointed but not surprised. The attitude of men here reminds me a lot of default subs in Reddit. People tend to be more civil, but there is so much “but what about men?” when talking about women’s issues or belittling women still. Business as usual on the Internet, but I can see why it would cause women to avoid Lemmy.

I haven’t been back to Reddit, but it makes me miss the small niches where I didn’t see that as often.
