I’m an engineer in the US, and I can tell you that the Imperial unit system is a major pain in the ass. It’s makes no sense at all. 1 meter=100cm=1000mm vs. 1yard=3 feet=36inches. I’ll not even get into slugs for gravity, miles, and pounds. Whoever invented the English unit system needs to be kicked in the balls. It’s probably one of the worst mathematical blunders of humanity.

Also, why does nobody here know that their mindless nationalism is weird? I’ve seen military guys stop traffic to stop their cars in the middle of the road and stand with their hand over their heart towards the nearest flag when they play the trumpets at the end of the work day. ( on a military base) But seriously, why would you stop rush hour traffic to virtue signal your worship of an inanimate object. Those people should not be allowed to use firearms. There is seriously something wrong with that. My coworkers did the same thing, but not while they were driving. It’s beyond bizarre.

It makes you wonder if peaceful societies can ever exist without threat. It’s almost like the most greedy and psychopathic people always endure. That’s why the liberals in the US and Europe will not win against the violent right wingers. The indigenous folks in the US have a word for the white greed sickness. I think they call it watika.

The world wars didn’t even really happen there. There has not even been a war there in the last 100 years or something.

The lady in the picture straight up looks like the SS.

The world ends because a bunch of elderly white dudes want to measure dicks. Yay!

Damn, that’s huge. I didn’t even know there were any.

There were even protests in my tiny town. People have been protesting a lot. Hell, they had a massive one in LA just this week. Anyone who says Americans have not been protesting needs to find different media sources unless the ones used are not meant for international coverage. My workplace is even staging a protest soon.

There are some folks who want to accelerate the total reset and maybe create a UBI. Those are the Dark Enlightment folks (sometimes Dark MAGA), and they are called neoreactionary accelerationist. The intentional destruction of the US gov is the acceleration of the reset that you mention. These are a bit different from the Heritage Foundation and mostly tech bros. They are considered far right, but I’m far left and can’t help but see a lot of truth in some of what they say. I’ve had the same opinion you have for 20 years now, that it would be better to just let this all fall so we can hurry up and rebuild our economy into something that is not a plane with locked engines falling straight out of the sky. I totally know what you mean.

You’re certainly welcomed! Also, what was the book you read in English at 17?

Okay, well that is good to know. If that’s the case, I almost certainly have it from another aspect of life.

From what I’ve read, the other Android OS’s do not work with any US carriers. I think some folks got them to work with a Pixel/T-Mobile/Graphene combo, but that is not only literally buying a Google phone, it is also limiting me to one carrier. I would get a Pixel, but the whole point is to get away from google, not give them more money.

So can google track users if you watch a youtube video on Peertube?

This is a better list than the ones I’ve seen previously. Thanks for sharing.

You’re going to do great! Good luck with escaping the father! Yikes!

You’re not the only user who has mentioned bullying. Were you bullied in relation to ADHD or was it a separate issue?

I rebelled by succeeding, too. It worked out for me.

You’re going to do great! Hang in there!

Do you feel that your early diagnosis and subsequent treatment adjusted your behaviors at a young enough age such that you escaped the rejection sensitivity dysphoria effect?

Edit: Congrats, btw!

I think I have terrible depression and that it is genetic. It could be based on that. This is a good exercise to do because all this feedback is telling me that my lack of desire to have kids could be related to the ADHD, but that ADHD usually does not dissuade folks from parenting much of the time, so therefore something else is likely a larger factor in my attitude about motherhood.
