Apparently I've been listening to the new Gunship album too much, said I was in the top 1% of Gunship listeners.

I think the feature is cool and I'm looking forward to it personally.
Maybe they should have made it opt in, but social features like this on other platforms like discord and stream aren't, so .. eh.
Some of it stems from religious zealotry (marriage is sacred and permanent).
Some of it is a misguided attempt at rectify the 'single parent' problem, believing that two unhappy parents is better than one parent divorced.
Essentially if you make divorce harder, more couples will be forced to work through their disagreements and reconcile.
It's just so hard to see where we transition from here.
We went from a resource economy to a manufacturing economy to a service economy... And now many services are being automated. So what's next?
I'm in favor of the automation but recognize it's going to cause pain in the near future.
I've seen people tout a 'creative based economy', but to be honest LLMs and GANs seen poised to grab that sector before anyone in service can transition to it.
You'd hope all of this would mean an easier life, but so long as capitalism is the name of the game there is zero incentive to spread the benefits among all.
How are they not?
'the allies did worse than the Holocaust' is certainly a hot take.
Same thing applies to humanitarian aid.
If Hamas has hijacked or is operating in those places then they become military targets.
As far as white phosphorus, it depends on how it's deployed. If it's deployed for masking, tracing or identifying then it's legal.
If it's being directly used as an incendiary then that's illegal.
As far as international law goes no this is not a war crime.
If your military takes refuge or uses a civilian center for military operation then that location becomes a valid military target regardless of the risk to civilian lives.
Basically Hamas is commiting the crime by purposefully setting up in these areas. Once they do that then civilian death is acceptable collateral damage, legally speaking.
If you lack social skills you better have some sort of labor relevant skill to replace it with them!
While the tone of this post is mocking, it's a very real thing that having the social skills to match someone else's vibe during an interview can help tremendously with helping the interviewer see you as someone who can fit with the company culture.
I see people who struggle with getting jobs often are lacking in those sort of soft social skills.
Florida here checking in.
Our government is hard at work on this.
Check out this pending bill up for vote during the next session: https://m.flsenate.gov/session/bill/2024/599/billtext/filed/pdf https://m.flsenate.gov/session/bill/2024/599/billtext/filed/pdf
Essentially it makes it illegal to be transgender and have a job in government or government adjacent.

It continues on about not being able to fire people for thinking being gay is a sin and so on, but I don't want this to be a novel.
