Terrafirmacraft and Gregtech do actually have modern 1.20.1 versions! I am currently actually playing a modpack with some friends called Terrafirmagreg, which as the name implies is tfc and Gregtech integrated, along with a bunch of other QOL and add-ons. It is a very fun, and very very long pack.

Edit: I believe there is a 1.7 version of the pack as well

Lesser evil politics without pushing for better candidates and also doing community building gets you fascism. Just voting for the lesser evil and calling it a day is technically better than voting for the fascist, but not a whole lot as it lets the status quo slip.

Also, what the fuck else are you supposed to do? Be accelerationist and vote for the fascism? Just refuse to participate and and let whatever happens happen? Both of those sound like ways to also get fascism.

I mean some of them legit do (cough Fetterman), and a lot just don't particularly care about stopping it, but that's beside the point, I know the kind of people you're actually talking about. There is still value in electing the lesser evil, and pushing to get better and more progressive Dems in office (that are usually better at pushing back against fascism anyways)

Yeah, he's pretty prevalent on !progressivepolitics@lemmy.world, I argue with him a lot there. Particularly in his posts of random shit BadEmpanada says. It's sometimes fun but usually annoying.

I mean there was some guy at a military event (a YouTuber or smthn I think?) that literally did the helldivers recruiting intro but replaced it with marines

The thing is, oil is an incredible resource with properties unlike any other, so we should stop fucking burning it

If all we we use oil for is solvents and lubrication and such, it would probably be perfectly fine, and we would have enough for centuries.

And hegseth is doing such a good job pissing off the entire military, and none of them are getting paid, and they even threatened to not do backpay....

Surely nothing bad has ever happened to rulers and governments that piss off their military

This post is an explanation of how my personal motivation works, and I am curious how others here relate to it, and if it is a common thing with ADHD.

For starters, I have inattentive-type ADHD, have been diagnosed and on various medications for ~5 years, and am roughly college age for context. I am very highly motivated by other people, basically anything where people are depending on my for something, or will directly help/harm someone depending on my actions. Of course I still have executive dysfunction struggles regardless, but that external motivation helps immensely.

In school this manifested as struggling a lot with homework (often not doing it), but doing very well in-class and with group projects. In my limited work and internship experiences, somewhat predicably, I have done very well as directly working hands-on with coworkers highly motivates me. Unfortunately, personal life progression things like actually getting a job and finding and applying for further education is the exact opposite, and is a struggle. There are of course plenty more examples, but I think that gives the gist of my experience.
