libertarianism@lemmy.world•I don't understand the difference between Libertarian and AnarchistEnglish
0·3 years agoIt’s weird whenever I see people talking about anarchy they always seem to forget that humans have family and friends and choose to work together to make things happen without needing an authority creating rules.

6·3 years agoYes to stages!! If I try to do the thing immediately I will get lost in an inception of side quests. So I have tables in every room dedicated to “things that need to go in another place”. Then when I’m going there, maybe I’ll remember to grab one of them 😅
Yes to multiples of things in each room/my car!! Off the top of my head I can think of: phone chargers, cups of pens and scissors, fly swatter, fans, Chapstick, hair ties. If I have to move it, Ive lost it

52·3 years agoBlue blood from a horseshoe crab yes. Blue crabs are also a thing and horseshoe crabs are always referred to with the word horseshoe in front. So calling them just crabs with the word blue in front is a poor choice if one cares about communication.

Socialism@beehaw.org•Disney Is Purging Content to Avoid Paying Workers and Evade TaxesEnglish
10·3 years ago"Disney claims it needs to destroy the content to cut costs on platforms that aren’t making money, but experts say the company is overstating the value of its content — which could ultimately help the company pocket a higher tax break.
In May, Disney told regulators that it will incur $1.5 billion in losses as part of its content purge. Disney’s chief financial officer, Christine McCarthy, told investors Disney was making “excellent progress on our cost-cutting initiatives,” on its May earnings call, including “removing certain content from our streaming platforms.”
How can it be both?

ADHD memes@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Tell me you have AuDHD justice sensitivity emotional regulation impulsivity issues without telling me...English
111·3 years agoI am so angry that they don’t have an easy “report this posting” button. Firstly, you have to go on a computer, you can’t do it at all on the app. Then it’s a tiny bit of text kind of hidden under suggested products and the report form doesn’t allow you to upload photos or anything so it just feels like it’s a throw away form. So I did that and then contacted the customer service bot and you have to be careful how you word it because “I need to report a fraudulent seller” makes the bot respond with prompts about phishing emails or calls pretending to be from Amazon and if you try to go back and start over it remembers what you’ve already said and gets confused and just gives you dead ends… But if you can just get it to give you a customer service rep you can eventually get them to say nice words to you pretending they will investigate an “take care of it”. Which I’m sure is bullshit. Gahhhhh such angry

171·3 years agoThey refused to contact me back with the results of their “investigation”. I asked what I should do if I see the post again and they said to contact them again. I tried to report it to the FTC but I would have had to lie about having purchased it which I didn’t want to risk ruining the report by doing so. I’m half considering actually buying it in order to be able to 😅🤔😬

Science@beehaw.org•Boys experience depression differently than girls. Here’s why that matters
9·3 years agoI really resonate with your comment and also struggled with depression throughout my teens into adulthood until I learned about late diagnosed adhd and how those who fly under the radar for that can often lead to chronic burnout which is very similar looking to depression. Have you ever considered you might be ADHD?

31·3 years agoI’m keeping my normal stimulant medication and adding 1mg guanfacine at bedtime. That’s going to be tricky for me I think I’ll need to put it next to my bed bc I forgot last night to take my first dose which sucks I wanted to start on a weekend. My biggest worry is daytime sleepiness which is why they recommend taking it at night

/0@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Can we get a sorting option for Communities section? Alphabetical at least, if not also newly subscribedEnglish
11·3 years agoI’m an older millennial who missed too much of the computer revolution so I find it hard to follow a lot of the vocab. Voyager shows my subscribed communities in alphabetical order, but when I use Lemmy on browser by signing into lemmy.dbzer0.com the list of communities (subscribed, local, and all) are not. It’s not clear how they are sorted. So you’re saying that the instance does something but has no control over the look of browsing Lemmy, i.e. all instances look the same in a browser. Just trying to make sure I’m understanding correctly. Thanks!

71·3 years agoI’m not being the change I want to see in the world for sure when I say this but I’m definitely scared to be “out” in any way regarding mental health struggles at work. The closest I’ve gotten is talking about anxiety and stress burnout, which I’ve been very careful to do in corporate-speak. I just feel like I can’t risk being seen as “at risk” of not being able to handle my work, even if that means I’m more at risk of that happening than if I was actually being supported. 😭





Interesting, what’s it called
