Can I interest you in Trackmania
I still have my HP PSC 1400, the software is stored on an old drive. This thing still works and is so old that I can refill the bootleg ink cartridges and this thing just takes them. It scans even when the cartridges are empty. It’s a simple device and I hope it keeps working as long as possible
I think it’s completely valid to vote according to your feelings. That’s how you determine what you find important in those you vote for. Drawings are a form of art and the purpose of art is to invoke specific feelings in the consumer - apparently more people enjoyed the first drawing and voted for it, which is completely valid for a competition for “drawings”; it wasn’t a competition for drawing skills, just the pictures themselves.
What I find much more problematic for democracy is misinformation, especially if deliberate by news outlets, politicians or lobbyists. They know how to manipulate feelings to get what they want.
That’s indeed interesting, I never get femme coded stuff recommended and I’m a cis woman gamer… Amazon just wants to sell me faster SSDs
Is this paradise meant to be perfect? It won’t be boring or meaningless, because that would mean that it’s not perfect.

I want to throw in the following explanations I read (I haven’t fact checked them but find them interesting for this post). Women are statistically smaller than men and smaller individuals of a species live longer than larger ones. Men on average have faster metabolisms than women which is said to contribute to faster aging as well.
In apprentice school. We started chatting during the breaks and showed each other memes. Started with Imgur, then Reddit and now lemmy lol. We started sitting next to each other during the lessons as well to show the other more memes. When we finished school we stayed in touch and when my relationship with my ex failed, we immediately started dating. We bought a house and are now a little more than one month married.
so, doing something for yourself or people you care about is labour, doing something in exchange for money is prostitution
