Definitely more of a problem online where everyone is competing to be “right” as if there is any one actual answer.
Even empathetic people still want simple answers and are willing to be pretty cruel to protect theirs.
Oh also really funny comic, love the punchline timing. Can really feel it.
Krauerking@lemy.lolto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•NYC Mayor Adams says Cuomo pushing him to drop out of race to maximize chances against Mamdani3·5 days agoTL;DR: He chose not to cause its easier than facing rejection and getting his feelings hurt, to just pay his own way. And he can pretend he is well liked to people that pay him, for longer.
He struggled to raise money for his re-election and blamed the court cases that were pardoned by Trump for taking up his time. Democratic party cares a lot about what you can pay in for how they help.
By not running as a democrat Adams is automatically in the general election same as how Cuomo is still in and his budget he raises is his. Basically each party can only offer one candidate but anyone can boost themselves for general election and be on it with the funds or signatures. He figures he has them.
Mamdani just won the backing of the party in the party voting. So he automatically gets the votes and money needed to run.

He was literally invited to the DNC but they just didnt give him a speaking position. Hakeem Jeffries has defended him every step of the way.

Yes.

Why did he actually not do anything? Who can say?

He also refused to prosecute Matt Gaetz.

So why does it have to be US news trolling as if it were Reddit?4·8 days agoYou clearly don’t remember him bragging about being the tallest building in New York as the twin towers fell.
Or him being pissy at Obama all the time.
Or him having a huge hit show.
Or him poisoning people with shitty steaks.He was constantly in the news because he as always been desperate for attention and praise. Now he has that and the president seat of the collapsing empire.
I dunno it’s only been like 4,000 years. I think that’s a pretty easy geological excavation to beat it back down some more.
Krauerking@lemy.lolto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can we make the Fediverse more positive and wholesome?1·8 days agoYeah it’s fine to not have the answers. Honestly I don’t think there are any just actions you can take and consequences to figure out after.
I do agree we could probably do more to separate distracting news from useful news since there is a lot of it. And I think that’s a pretty interesting suggestion. And I think that kind of creative consideration is exactly what we need to make actions that we think might work, since it’s smaller than the huge goal all at once.
Krauerking@lemy.lolto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can we make the Fediverse more positive and wholesome?1·8 days agoThere seems to be this concept that humans do their best when under pressure and I really think that is wrong, heck science literally agrees with me and so does history.
When people are uncomfortable and struggling they really just suck. Short fuse, anxiety, and uncreative. But during extremely peaceful and well funded times people prosper and contribute better. Look at how much we got out of the post world war 2 era of just funding and building more that gave us new genres of music and art and it’s from free time and comfort that people can get creative. Humans love to be lazy but get bored quick. It’s the center of all our innovation.
So, I agree that a better world would give us better everything but not really actionable advice for the moment in here though right?
Krauerking@lemy.lolto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can we make the Fediverse more positive and wholesome?3·8 days agoIf you want something great for being funny wholesome and weird while tripping I can’t recommend a sub but I always really like this Jacob Wysocki video and just sketch comedy channels like Door Monster and Chris and Jack, etc…
Otherwise on here I like the comic communities. They have been pretty good.
Krauerking@lemy.lolto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can we make the Fediverse more positive and wholesome?2·8 days agoI’ve noticed that people seem to agree with the person they “think” is winning the argument and turns it into a game of butting heads, when I don’t think that is how social media should be treated anyways.
The whole point is people don’t know what you do and these spaces are supposed to be for coming together and communicating in a digital space instead of a physical space and then you share. But because it’s all practically to an audience people treat the conversation like a gladiator combat where someone needs to speak more confidently and belittle the other as to show their strength and get the upvotes. Or their humor to show they don’t care and are more funny than the other. It’s so competitive.
Honestly the best interactions come from the people who don’t use the platform as much and just talk like a person asking what other people think and responding reasonably. No assumptions of using the platform as a stage, no attempts to “win”, shouldn’t even be thinking you will get the other person to agree with you just that you both leave with more than what you came in with.
And that needs to be especially true for the fact that new younger people will come in and having no expectations of what they should already know or be but welcoming them in anyways is how it will have to continue.

It’s honestly not anything new to not be drinking water just the people doing it are less drunk now.
They really should. Wizards light themselves on fire a lot. More of them should be dedicated to the art of fireproofing themselves.
It was the glasses and the little lightning bolts that gave it away as to all the work put into it. Honestly if you put it on a mug I’d say still leave the nazi and the punch line on a parallel line. It really hits.
And making your own punk/pop art wearables is very classic and if you havent heard Of them your style reminds me a bit of OSGEMEOS though far less surreal.
