It was definitely on the main page. Their blog link is coming up dry too. Hmm. 🤷🏽

We’ve had 15 bean “soup” on rotation for many years. Our recipe is yummy, feeds a large family for several meals, and it’s definitely affordable.

I can’t even find the announcement for when they got into the legal issue in the first place. It’s like it didn’t happen.

Israel acts with impunity. Western governments and cooperation are directly complicit.

Palestine. Sudan. Ukraine. Myanmar. Congo. And more. Systemic injustice everywhere.

What will it take for global leaders to actually do something? 😖

We don’t deserve this world. 😓

They’re speaking of the standard and default in most map representations.

M’kay.

These days, people video tape everything. Hopefully something will soon be revealed that shows exactly what happened. Even then, it won’t matter to some, but it will help.

Waffles.

Germany most recently. As far as I can see, it’s due to the rise in nationalism and anti-immigration policies. It’s absolutely terrible to watch especially knowing what’s going to happen to most of those people being forced back…

Smashes.

Asinine.

TIL about the Corsi-Rosenthal Box

I hear that welcoming migrants is a great way to address this problem…

😝

It’s possible you’re conflating asocial and antisocial behavior.

Humans are social creatures and we communicate in more than just words. How you respond to people, or in this case don’t respond to people, says a lot to them. What the other person interprets may or may not be true. Frankly, humans are prone to storytelling so they have a tendency to presume the worst. If you aren’t reinforcing otherwise with your words and your behavior, then they will naturally become upset.

I’m really really glad to hear that you have people in your life that seem to care about you, ask about how you are, and provide various things for you. However, even though you may not feel like it for whatever reasons, refraining from reciprocating that behavior will starve out those relationships.

Human relationships are always quid pro quo. If you are receiving, then you will be giving something back. It doesn’t have to be one-to-one and not usually immediate.

If you want relationships of any kind to be healthy, then reciprocating when people invest into you is important. Again, it doesn’t necessarily have to be in the same way or amount, but there does have to be a response. Without that, the relationship becomes unhealthy or eventually over.

On a side note, I’m really proud to see you being forthright and honest with your mental health. I know it’s more commonly spoken about these days, but it can still be hard. I hope that you’re getting help as you navigate through it. You might find that some of the internal healing work you do will also positively affect the very relationships you are talking about in this post.

May your tomorrow’s be better than each today. 💜

For the first question, you might find answers more helpful if you ask the aforementioned people that you’re actually interacting with.

And regarding the second question, it’s probably related to the first. Young people who grew up texting and using social media have adopted abbreviated writing styles. Older people using the same technologies tend to retain more proper forms. Of course, people aren’t monoliths. There’s plenty of young people writing in complete sentences and plenty of older people utilizing short form words.

I tell her to be nice and to love her stuffies, but even the ones that are designed to be super tough somehow always manage to offend her and get their guts pulled out.

Stuffies do not survive long when my dog gets them…

FYI: @[email protected] I figured out the problem and edited the OP to reflect that

I removed all my blocks completely. No change.

I also need to update my previous post to you because when I view the community while logged off from lemmy.ca, I can see all the recent posts.

It’s something specific to my account it seems…
