saved. that goes into my “amazing pictures” folder.

they just wrote that to make it more likely that you click on it and therefore give it attention :)

you know what go fuck yourself with your attempt to pitch people against each other by asking leading questions

I think people aren’t hurling abuses at you for just asking a question. It’s more that your original comment “Why does he want a city run grocery store?” sounds like you didn’t even spend 1 second to think about the question yourself.

why would anybody want a city run grocery store? what could possibly be the reason? is it maybe sothat the city can better control what the grocery store does? such as setting food prices? on a politics platform that specifically promised cheaper cost of living for the people? hmmm …

if you had just guessed some response to your own question and then asked for confirmation, i guess people would respond more empathically, as you would have shown that you even thought about this topic for 10 seconds yourself.

this way, it takes you 2 seconds to write the question and other people 5 minutes to write a well-balanced answer, which is just mean and unfair to them.

if they hadn’t asked the question, we wouldn’t have this discussion and i wouldn’t have bothered to even learn something about this topic. so i learned about the project in more detail than if it had only been mentioned in a headline and i forgot to search for it myself.

i personally think that social housing and public transport are more important than a city-run grocery store because especially housing is something that lots of people pay painful amounts of money to, but city-run grocery stores are certainly an interesting concept that could help people to lower their cost of living. which i think is better than giving the money to billionaires.

the body is supposed to have some auto-cleaning function so even if that did happen it should clean itself up after a while.

the master who loves simple things

it takes a genius to see the simplicity in things

They don’t disagree that the pattern isn’t there, they are all just massively biased/stigmatized against any concepts of mental illness or neurodiversity, choosing to view atypical, consistent behavioral patterns as simply indicative of the underlying, quality of moral character of a person.

i think for historical context you have to understand that a hundred years ago people were literally put into prison (“mental asylum”) for being “mentally ill” and they were never seen again.

that stuff scares people. science (“science”) has done incredible harm to a lot of people in the name of “curing” them. they didn’t just give electroshocks to “mad” people or sterilize the gays (btw, what’s that for if they already don’t make children!?!) but many of the “mental hospitals” were outright torture chambers, intending to scare the large masses of population into “correct” behavior.

people have these horror stories passed down for generations, it’s grave stuff and people don’t forget that even if they don’t speak about it consciously. that’s why it is so difficult to remove that stigma around “mentally ill” people because deep down people are still scared about how they’d be treated if they were declared as such. that’s why there’s so many people just insisting that they’re mentally well, even when it’s gravely obvious that they are not.

this is fucked up shit you have going on in your country (not your fault) but also this is not really historically exceptional. laws like these have existed throughout history. just to give a few examples, people in the west today like to complain about how oppressive the taliban are for making women wear hijabs but in europe 200 years ago it was also customary for women to wear some garment around their hair as to not show the hair in public.

yeah noether’s theorem isn’t perfect because it only discusses continuous symmetries. nevertheless, it still applies here.

the symmetries that are associated with the genome are rather broad, actually. for example, if a living organism moves both in time and in space, the genome stays the same, while the proteins in the body might change due to different gene expression (Regulation of gene expression). and therefore the metabolites produced change as well.

everybody likes girls, they’re the best

most people either want to be a woman or be with a woman, for many it’s both

i mean you can already put a link to your blog in your user profile on lemmy. in fact many people do it. (i don’t do it myself because i don’t have a good website to link to)

We need free healthcare. This obviously includes free food because you can’t stay healthy if you don’t eat.

“Fascism” really just means that people are unhappy with the current situation and want change. And that’s ok, understandable even. We need to make sure to stir the movement in a direction that benefits people, instead of making the situation worse.

yeah, exactly. for example, in the sidebar (community description) of lemmy communities.

or in your personal profile description
