Believe you me, I’ve been trying for years. Tribalism runs too deep in the human condition for there to be any obvious fix.

Maybe not, but they definitely did with television.

It’s not paranoia, I put on a white shirt two hours ago and it’s already stained.

I personally find the children’s poems of Maurice Sendak creepy, but I think that’s intentional. To my mind, it’s Carol King singing “Chicken Soup with Rice” all cheerful that’s misreading the vibe.

I have a lot of original content, mostly Tom Swifty jokes here on lemmy at !tomswifty@midwest.social

Not all libertarian-leaning people are on board with corporatism; IMO freedom is for people, not businesses.

Sometimes! I make mine with onions, peppers, and carrots. My favorite diner doesn’t shred them, just slices them thin. Some places bake them instead of frying them, too. There’s a hashbrown for every occasion, they’re not just tinier french fries.

Like I knew that you would!

I myself am Christian and have never had trouble getting along with others no matter their religious beliefs. The only conflict is when someone thinks their religion or religious precepts should be made law; I have no tolerance for that.

Older millennial here. I came here a year ago.

I’ll point out that many creatures that have seasonal mating still mate for life.

Except, presumably, all the people he beat out for the nomination.

Look, I loved Dave too, but it was fiction.

It is what we make of it, and I need it to be the latter rather than the former.

The Democratic National Committee - the ruling elite of the Democratic Party. I’m saying the people want effective governance but the party just wants power.

Like hell. It’s a ranked threaded discussion forum.

You and I need that. Does the DNC?
