The ice cream no longer exists. It hasn’t existed for a long time, and no amount of wishing will bring it back.

I want ice cream, too. But before we can have ice cream again, we need to not die.

It would be cathartic for many of us, though.

That’s what happens when you put people in leadership positions who earnestly believe that empathy is a ‘fundamental weakness’. Ya know, ignoring that empathy is precisely what’s made us successful as a species in the first place.

A few years feels optimistic. I’d wager on by the end of this year, at the rate everything is getting defunded.

I think people vastly underestimate the effectiveness of annual mitigation efforts by multiple agencies that have either already been cut or on the chopping block.

Many of these agencies go unnoticed because they work well, but will be immediately obvious once they’re gone.

I’ve got some ocean front property in Arizona. From the front porch you can see the sea.

We’re not homo naledi. We’ve been living in increasingly modern societies forever, and definitely long enough for it to be more natural to us as a species than shitting in bushes and dying of dysentery.

Anything from the Discovery Institute or the stuff aimed at kids by PragerU is usually a good start. Materials by Creation Ministries or any of the christian textbook companies is good, too.

I don’t have specific video links, but like I said, it doesn’t matter much. If you search for ‘christian curriculum’ or ‘christian textbook’ you’ll see many various examples.

e: they can speak for themselves just fine.

Why am I just now noticing Tesla’s logo looks exactly like an IUD?

Looks like a robot.

They might also get around like sea lions, hard to say.

Some people seem to only not assault others because they might get called out on it, so they assume everyone else is the same way. It’s pretty weird, and they’re really just telling on themselves.

Maybe even supplement with pedialyte if it’s been excessive.

It’s serious. They’ve been threatening this for years, but were blocked in various ways. They’ve spent years breaking all those guardrails.

e: this will show whether all the guardrails are gone (it kinda looks like they are)

This took longer than I thought it would. It seemed like a priority during trump’s 1st term, then it stalled.

Given some of Putin’s comments lately, he seems increasingly restless. I wonder if this is related to that?

It’s really only good in the original Klingon.

I have an older phone and I’m not up to date. It’s probably a ‘me’ problem. Thanks, though!

A very large faction has been weaponising that indoctrination against others, and it’s been increasingly effective.

I am heartened that it didn’t work on you.

Okay, thanks. It doesn’t want to load properly in whatever built-in mobile browser Voyager is implementing.

I might make a community…

That’s certainly what it was at first, but we’re talking about people who have been indoctrinated from birth for generations.

e: I strongly encourage you to watch some of their educational content. I won’t even try to guide you towards anything specific. Just any of it.

Is this federated? I use Voyager on iOS exclusively, and that link doesn’t resolve to a community for me. I searched for those terms on Lemmy and didn’t find anything.

If this doesn’t exist on Lemmy, I might start a community and dedicate my life to it.
