Jerboa recently introduced it, but you can turn it off in settings.

Such a terrible feature imo...

Sort your comments by controversial and take your pick.

You're an edgelord with insensitive comments including antisemitism and racism. I'd venture to guess it probably had something to do with that.

There's always a choice. Our politicians are just too invested in Isreal's military as a middle-eastern ally.

But Isreal has really demonstrated how self-serving and nationalist they are, and I don't think they can be relied upon in a call to action as an ally.

I wish our leaders would show more of a backbone against Isreal, and withdraw all support for them.

One thing that I have drawn strength from repeatedly in hard times was drilled into me by a great professor in undergrad (psychology):

You cannot experience personal growth without struggling; without hardship.

Think of the people who are sheltered from the real-world and then get a full dose of it and are unable to cope and preserve like others who had to grow up early.

I remind myself amidst struggles that I will be coming out on the other side a stronger and more capable person. It helps me to accept the shit on my plate and refuse to give up.

Yeah it has certainly escalated to an extreme pro-china/russia perspective there, where I've seen them simultaneously claim that the US is entirely responsible for Isreal's genocide and deny the genocide and ethnic cleansing committed by China.

Definitely went full tankie.

What an utterly stupid statement... She's refusing to contribute to committing genocide, but that's not enough for you. You think she should kill herself too...

If everyone refused to contribute to the genocide, then there wouldn't be one either. There's no reason young people resisting conscription should be making futile self-sacrifices. She's already sacrificing her freedom in refusing to participate in a genocide, and spreading awareness and dissidence.

I have a key fob faraday cage/pouch keychain to prevent people from being able to dupe my key fob's signal.

Upgrading your life is not eating instant noodles in general, old man.

I came here for depraved food snacks!

Yeah, I came here looking for crushed uncooked Ramen noodle lazy, dammit!..

The idea that fish do not experience pain is also ludicrous... They possess a central nervous system and can very much feel pain.

I'm also opposed to catch & release fishing for fun/sport for this reason.

Imagine a hyper-advanced species suddenly and painfully yanked you up into different atmospheric conditions where you're desperately unable to breathe.

Is it perfectly acceptable just because they put you back down in your natural environment before you died, with a new painful wound and traumatic experience?

I certainly don't think so...

I have struggled with long covid and it's interaction with my hypermobility EDS for a little over a year now. Derailed my entire life...

Lost my job, strained my marriage so bad and caused my wife (who just doesn't understand) to resent me...

I'm finally getting my life back on track. I am finally going to graduate school, and I am very close to working an in-person job again.

I still am not back to my old self, and I'm not sure I ever will be. Not just with the chronic fatigue and stuff, but my brain function/thinking still doesn't feel normal...

I don't even know how to describe long covid or where to begin. I was someone who never got sick. I was so close to dying for so long. I'm convinced I wouldn't have survived if I wasn't fully vaxxed. For a long time, I wished I hadn't survived.

I'm sorry you're having to move back with family. I hope you start to notice positive change, even if it's so incremental it's almost imperceptible. It was an unbelievably slow change for me, but it eventually became more exponential.

As the kid plays videogames or listens to music, nitrous oxide, an anesthetic gas, is emitted through the snorkel and puts the child to sleep.

Finally!

A humane way to euthanize our children!
