Gracias friend

I’m 37m now. I was with my first gf from age 18 to 24. I was a wreck for years. I didn’t go on a date for at least a year. I didn’t have sex for 2 years. I didn’t get into another relationship for 5 years.

We had kinda been circling the drain for a while, so it shouldn’t have been a surprise at the time, but I didn’t know any world without her and I was scared to end it.

Looking back, it was one of the best things that ever happened to me, but in the moment it was awful. I was a depressed wreck for years.

Every accusation a confession

Anyone wanna post the text here?

That is insane. How many people have to be forcibly dragged out of a government chamber before they reconsider what they are doing?

TIL I’m neurodivergent

Whose getting fewer work hours?

I think playing their games is worse than not playing them. Stop paying attention to them and giving people a reason to want their products.

Benadryl. I have always struggled to sleep.

It’s like they have zero idea what caused 9/11 in the first place.

Sorry are we not still in Iraq?

The year is 1991, the US goes to war in the middle east. The year is 2002, the US goes to war in the middle east. The year is 2026, the US goes to war in the middle east.

You seem not to know history. Mossadegh wanted to nationalize the oil fields so that the people living in Iran could benefit financially from them. The CIA murdered him and then installed the Shah, for the express purpose of letting Western corporations exploit the oil fields.

This exact story line has played out in countless countries for decades. The CIA or some other group has been doing this to the third world for a loooong time. Any time any of these people try to assert themselves to fix their homelands, the CIA has them killed.

These humans are just cogs in a machine. Khomeni did alot of bad in the world but the CIA coup in 1953 is what created the conditions that lead to the 1979 revolution and the Ayatollah assuming power.

Killing Saddam Hussain didn’t fix Iraq. Killing Bin Laden didn’t fix Afghanistan. This will not fix Iran.

The US blowing shit up without careful consideration creates a cycle of violence that has been the history of the middle east for the past century. Doing this one good thing will had to a thousand bad things. The US has created all the terrorists that want to destroy it, and this situation is no different.

The problem will always be capitalism. The 1953 coup was motivated in response to the nationalizing the oil fields. As long as we are beholden to the profit concerns of rich men, these cycles of violence will persist.

Man if only there was a way to design society so that people could walk more.

I tried out Lemmy.ml for a while but then I kept getting accused of being a tankie, so I gave up. Piefed showed up in my reddit feed and feddit.online was the first one I saw.

The last time they installed a regime in Iran they created an enemy for generations.

I’m an Aleve guy

What about all the times the DNC gently massages preferable primary candidates?
