I definitely read "sharting" at first glance
If it's free from a for profit company, you're most likely the product
Well articulated! I wish we could operate in that space more often.
Healthy discourse might get us humans somewhere instead of infighting with our neighbors
It's not so much what their interpretation is of the specific article is, it's more that you might find more information from someone who has info that was left out, or maybe another source that has conflicting information.
Could you show us a few not so biased news sources? I suppose this will also vary wildly by topic. A news outlet might be narrative/propaganda driven on one topic, but not about another.
It's so much mess (through corporate ties or money) to sort through, it's hard to trust any of them anymore
Yeah, what a horrible headline lol.
It's about Facebook allegedly stopping it's streaming service to keep one of its largest ad revenue customers happy (Netflix), but also that court docs were unsealed in an anti trust suit, and Facebook may have agreements with Spotify and Netflix, to allow them to read users DM's (no idea why that's relevant but yeah, fuck Facebook! Lol)
It's very speculative though and may not be true. Not that it'd surprise me if it were true either though..
🤷 Does anyone here even use Facebook?
Sometimes there's good discussion though, and it's good to hear different takes.
Having comments also gives less power to the writer, like could you imagine if we all took Fox News or CNN headlines at face value and didn't discuss them?
That's fair, and I'm glad you're in a part of the world that allows you to express yourself freely.
If being on the stage, dressing different, or playing the drums is something you want to go at, I'd say do it. You won't know it until you're in it. There will be some aspects you like, and some you won't. What you perceive and what actually is, are often different.
I've always found that the things I excel at, are the things I'm genuinely interested in. And when I follow those paths for a while, they all have similar lessons. It's like an all rivers lead to the ocean kinda thing.
Counter intuitively though, I also feel more liberated when I'm disciplined about getting little goals done on those paths. When I follow my exact, in the moment emotions, it usually leads me to addiction and forms of laziness. Just gotta push through the bullshit for a bit lol. "Beauty stems from pain" sort of fits with what I'm saying here. Might not be the same for everyone though, but for the past few years I've been excited to get out of bed lol.
Anyways, listen to your heart and you'll feel full. Good luck!
What do you mean specifically when you say you want to explore yourself more? What would that entail?
There'd be hardly any parents left if you could jail bad parents on whim based on a singular observation.
Then many of those kids would be even worse off...
Thinking back to the very "concerned parents" of my childhood, they were usually the over protective lunatics
