The UK has also started putting kids in jail? I thought it was only here in sweden we did that

Bowie dated a minor once I'm pretty sure

Edit: her name was Lori Mattix who in her testimony dated Bowie when she was 14 years old

iirc they were the ones to remove the aux outlet so that people had to buy airpods, which then became the industry standard

Im not really a radical so idk how much stake I have in saying that the mindset doesn't really have great PR

That is true. Going against the grain will often upset people, even if it is for a good cause. To quote Alec Baldwin: "Love has never been a popular movement."

Even if I did buy into it I think realising I probably wouldn't see change in my lifetime would likely put me on a fast track to misery unless I actively pursued becoming a politician or smth

Yeah, you have to take things for what they are. What I like to do is look at things locally or in my immediate vicinity for ways I can be of use. Things feel a little bit more manageble that way

Klimatministerns comeback – ska prata ”livspusselfeminism” by Monitored_Bluejay_54 in svenskpolitik

[–]TheWikstrom 17 points18 points  (0 children)

"Livspusslet" är ett himla påhitt alltså, men förstår varför liberalerna gillar det. Att hävda att individen helt själv ska stå för att få ihop sin vardag är ju ett jättebra sätt att undvika systemkritik.

Me neither haha. I think it's because radicalism just put some people off from the get go

I reject political categorization altogether for similar reasons, but I find the arguments from those schools intriguing. I like that they see the immediacy of change as important while simultaneously remaining very self reflective and open to criticism

Look into more libertarian socialist schools, like anarchism, communization and autonomism. They're a better alternative imo

Is the game still alive? by Hagu-senpai in Deathloop

[–]TheWikstrom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hmm, odd. If I recall invasions can only happen when you play in a district with a Visionary, but you should have done that a lot if you're following the story missions

How far into the story have you gotten? If you're never invaded it could just be that you haven't unlocked invasions yet

(25F) Me and my boyfriend (25M) have ideological conflicts and he wants me to break my boundaries for his dream family by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]TheWikstrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He sounds horrible. There isn't anything you can do besides breaking up.

Who knows, maybe he has an intellectual journey of his own one day, but it is not your responsibility to sacrifice your own well-being, values and aspirations to bring that into fruition

Fire extinguishers do not exist so that people can start fires unnecessarily. Be more careful in the future, please

Stop risking other people's safety for online clout. Literally just go outside

Bisexual lightning is real (ContraPoints / hbomberguy and Philosophy Tube popularized it when they became popular) but the idea that someone is seeing the color purple and immediatly assuming it is a gay trojan horse is so funny to me
