Maybe there’s a third class. People paid for who they are seem closer to people who are paid for what they have than to people paid for what they do.

20ish years ago…

ELI5 How come paid cable TV channels are now running commercials? Is that not bad for business because most if not all people got it to avoid commercials?

In what way?

I still see children walking alone where I live, but I’ll admit that I can’t compare it to when I was young because I don’t pass by elementary schools before/after school to be able to see them.

I could definitely see it championed by some conservative people. Both ends of the political spectrum can have tendencies towards government control, depending on the topic.

Conservatism is often built upon fear. Also consider all of the studies linking right-wing political views to physiological differences like bigger amygdalas (which play a role in fear).

Some people will be fearful that children need to be protected at all costs, so they’ll do things like this.

Just remember which side is doing things “for the children” as a scapegoat…hide the gays for the children, no drag story time to protect the children, no sex education (even books) to keep the children innocent. No walking alone outside to protect the children.

I’m not saying this particular Karen was Conservative, but I’m saying that she could be. I’m not sure why you’re blaming Liberal people, but I’m sure you have explanations like I do (and I’d be curious to hear them), but I’d wager that the problem is not exclusively tied to either side of the political spectrum.

There’s a difference between a claim and conjecture

adequately explained.

The ignorance doesn’t explain where all the money comes from. So malice it is! Lol

A woman who saw him walking alongside the road—speed limit: 25 in some places, 35 in others—asked him if he was OK. He said yes.

Nevertheless, she called the police.

So it was all that Karen’s fault…

But so do the Stack Overflow users

Why would you want to also make Stack Overflow worse?

Yeah, I think it’s the really the Gambler’s Fallacy, even if OP doesn’t describe gambling. It’s the idea of “It’s my turn for success to come soon – I’m due for my turn!”

That’s really awesome, and I know that rest days are very important.

But uh…I was just making a joke about not going to the gym! Ahaha

I overheard someone saying that rest days can be even more important than gym days because that’s when the body recovers.

My body does a lot of recovering!

Sometimes it helps to take your own advice, like having a conversation with yourself as if you were another person.

Other times, there’s a cloud around our heads that stops that from working.

I hope you find someone to talk to who treats you with the same compassion that you treat others.

Depending on where you live, someone to talk to is probably a phone call away. Give it a try if that’s an option.

Don’t Write Lemmy Posts In Title Case

Actually, I like capitalizing random nouns, so sometimes I might do that accidentally.

Maybe it was a joke that someone used back when she started the job 50 years ago. I could see it being a metaphor for something like the stone tablets that ancient texts were written on…or if she started more recently than that (or the company adopted computers by then), it could refer to information that wasn’t digital.

There’s no need to apologize!

And the other commenter is right. Same meaning for “come in my house”. People will know what you mean, but some immature people might be trying to hide a giggle, haha

English has many prepositions, so they can be confusing. Even native speakers mix them up.

For example…

• “Come in my house” (Ejaculate into my house)
• “Come to my house” (Visit my house)
• “Come into my house” (Enter my house)

So you might say “Come to my house whenever you want” when you want people to feel welcome to visit you any time.

But “Come into my house whenever you like” would be something like… you’re having a party in your backyard, and you want your guests to know that it’s ok to go inside too, and they don’t need to stay in the backyard.

English can be silly like that.

Just so you know, you probably want to say “Come to Europe”.

“Come in Europe” means “Ejaculate into Europe” or “Orgasm in Europe” in many dialects of English.

Which is fine! But probably not what you meant! Lol

Donate to companies like Planned Parenthood who help women access resources for reproductive health and services.

Something like the Internet Archive would also be incredibly important for preserving what politicians and organizations have said (so that they can’t claim they didn’t say something and try to have it erased off the internet).

If money isn’t your strong suit, then I don’t know – I’m not American. But I’ll still comment for the above, and to hopefully help boost this post.

When everyone else leaves out essential details…

They knew it they needed a license, they knew it needed care, but they didn’t take care of it or make any effort to make it legal because…they didn’t want to lose their upload momentum?

Not sure if it’d be the best response, but I’m pretty sure that Trans people (of either gender) face more discrimination than women do. So changing one’s gender would lead to more discrimination in all cases.
