Yeah I do help locally, I'm lucky enough that I have the means and ability to help others. But that still doesn't change the fact that people can't just cope and hope their way out of food insecurity. Plain and simple, every single one of us needs food, our bodies and minds will go through great lengths driving us to find food, we literally cannot turn off the neural pathways that tell us we're hungry and that we need to eat. You can't "positive thinking" your way put of an empty stomach while your body breaks itself down for energy.

Bold of you to assume I just sit on lemmy all day posting memes. Actually join in a bunch of volunteer service events throughout the year, some through work, other times personally. I also encourage others the vote for candidates who are more likely to bring about positive changes for our society.

So, yes I am being empathetic, and that empathy does actually drive me to take the steps I can take to make other people's lives better. But at the end of the day, all of this work can very quickly be for naught unless we simultaneously fix the overarching systems in place that led to the unnecessary problems people suffer.

God it must be blissful to live without any kind of empathy towards the struggles others go through.

Food insecurity is something outside of most people's control, last I checked, humans can only cope without food for about a week before death sets in.

Yeah that's been the joke since the Witness was first revealed in With Queen just over 2 years ago.

Basically the skibidi toilets take over and start a war in a city, the cameramen form a resistance group to fight against the skibidi toilets. Both sides keep escalating coming up with new counters to gain the upper hand. The cameramen also team up with speakermen and the tv people in their fight against the skibidi toilets.

I mean, the FTC is doing something. It's the courts I'm more concerned with.

Nobody's hating him, we're pointing out his arguments are untrue and pushing harmful rhetoric. People who hate him would be calling for his banning, not trying to argue against his rhetoric.

Sure failure is gonna happen but neuralink hasn't been particularly successful with all the primates that have been tested with for previous version either.

At least the president in Idocracy had the humility and self awareness let the smartest guy in the room advise him on policy.

Yeaaah CW Flash was really inconsistent with its power curves and growth.

blackbelt352 , to Showerthoughts in Metal is made from refined rocks, therefore Metal music is refined Rock music

I always figured it was because metal is harder than rock.

blackbelt352 , to Ask Lemmy in What plot holes could be adequately explained away with a single shot or line of dialogue?

Honestly my head canon is that just like how humans on a hell of an adrenaline rush can do superhuman feats like lift a car for someone trapped under it, superman has basically the equivalent, breaking his known limitations through sheer force of adrenaline.

Kind of like how in one of the early seasons of the CW Flash series, Barry accidentally travels back in time while pushing himself to stop a tidal wave from destroying Central City.

blackbelt352 , to Ask Lemmy in What linguistic constructions do you hate that no one else seems to mind?

So the first thing is definitely pulled from corporatespeak, so you sound very professional like you know what you're doing.

As for a washer specifically, there isn't really a known etymological origin, that's just what they've been called since the 1300s. The thing about English is that it's like 5 languages stack on top of each other and eating parts of other languages for sustenance.
