The Webster definition is morally bad or wrong.

What morals a person has can vary and can be contextual as well so there isn’t an easy definition. Asking for that really detracts from the point. Which is more what are your morals and which of those are strongly held and which are weaker.

It can take a while to get over a layoff when it’s unexpected, it isn’t so different than a relationship ending. We spend a lot of time at work and often put a lot of ourselves into our jobs.

This could be depression or just delayed grief as needing to find a job on short notice tends to block out a lot of emotion and it can take a bit after getting a job for that block to loosen.

What helps you get out of the funk and what helps someone else get out probably varies. For me a decent walk around the neighborhood/park and decreased phone time are/were very helpful. Even mild alcohol use was a very temporary thing that created a long-term detriment. Society sucks at teaching healthy coping mechanisms.

It isn’t but if it can’t work at that scale how do you convince anyone it will work when it’s larger scale? Showing feasibility is important.

I knew it I’m surrounded by assholes!

I certainly will but I know other parents won’t until the kids learn how to get around whatever parental restrictions and we get Barbie saying some real fucked up shit. That gets them sued.

The issue is potential copyright, the right to be “forgotten”, and of course illegal porn (csam, “revenge”, etc).

Isn’t not doing that part of the draw of foss? That sort of UI/“engagement” is necessary for monetization but is not for foss.

A product getting “sold” is in direct contradiction to it being foss. That’s the viewpoint of money and enshittifiers.

Most people here are specifically avoiding those companies in part because of their “engagement” algorithms.

Doesn’t have to be a straight relationship for “gifts” to turn into “you owe me”.

Isn’t Pinterest just Instagram for food and knickknacks? I never used either…

They were more subtle about it but they’ve been there from the start. Now they’re just more vocal.

Isn’t that pixelfed?

It’s shoes. Fuzzy pink heeled shoes. Had to zoom in.

Probably trying to flush too much paperwork at once.

Recent bail reform means NY doesn’t anymore in most minor cases. You’re either freed til trial or not depending on judgment of flight and violence risk. Big republican talking point because a lot of R judges have just been releasing violent repeat offenders to stir the pot. So Dems are trying to reform the reform to be a bit more feasible and Republicans want to return to previous where even petty theft could have you locked up for years waiting for trial if you couldn’t make bail.

A lot of it is laziness but on the other hand my boss will often cc me on irrelevant emails, rather infamously sometimes forward an entire 20 responses email chain and tell you to read it, and send 8 paragraphs of questions with only one related to me. Frankly, it is overwhelming and a waste of time. I’ve started not responding and my productivity and mental health have improved.

Emails and texts need to be succinct. The higher up the chain you go the more true this is. The higher up the chain the more emails you get think 200+. If someone writes a paragraph you’re skimming for relevance generally.

Tldr; professional communication does not need length. Justify your questions separately from actual bulleted or numbered questions.

Going to prison after 80y of living a full and consequence free life does not make a good point about justice. “Justice delayed is justice denied.” Courts need to move faster and take off the kid gloves.

As other have said Tinder was the biggest shift and the prime reason as stated is there’s a lot of fear that gets removed when you know you’re both there to date and you both at least superficially like each other.

This was before it was enshittified. Superlikes weren’t a thing, you had unlimited swipes and the algorithm tried to get you a match. Post-enshittification the algorithm tries to keep you hooked and paying. So there’s been a slight shift back to in-person but life is busy and expensive.

Shift happened well before 2019/2020.

You’re gonna have to give a source for the victim being satisfied with the outcome.

Depends on who can control the media and the military. The first few are probably not going to last too long because of the shitastic economy they’re going to inherit. Ukraine could get worse if they see it as necessary to prove themselves/distract from the economy or they could pull out so they can consolidate domestics affairs first.
