lol. why do I even bother with reddit?
directs them to the nearest public toilet
I’m starting to feel a bit burned out I think. Haven’t had a proper day off since July apart from the odd holiday. I’m starting to feel annoyed by people lol. I take public transport to work and I’m just instantly mad at everyone around me for making noise, being rude, whatever. At work I get confronted with poverty every day and it’s getting harder on my mental wellbeing I feel. I’m annoyed by things the party is doing and in the evenings I don’t have the energy to do anything.
Currently sitting on the train next to two girls being loud and annoying and I have to stop myself from yelling like a Karen I feel.
Also, I have been taking cold showers for like a year now and usually they are fine with a small mental step to take every morning, but the last two days I spend 5 minutes staring at my shower being unable to get into the cold water. I took a warm shower instead. Couldn’t get myself to do it due to stress.
I have a day off this week so maybe it helps.
I hope you feel better after your day off. You have to think about your own health as well it is difficult to help others if you can’t help yourself. Also whenever I travel to anywhere I always have a headset and listen to music maybe it would help to feel less annoyed by your surroundings
Maybe I should start doing that
To add onto what Oppo was saying, try getting noise-cancelling headphones or earplugs. They help me so much when taking public transportation.
People are rude, loud and inconsiderate. It’s not normal not to get annoyed by that. I hope you can get some rest still.
I hope you all have a nice week :D
You too Comrade Oppo . 🫡
You too :D

New emoji just dropped
The Emoji we all needed
How do I use emojis? :littlefriend:
Type “:” and the first few letters and you should see a selection pop up. You can also find it in the “*” category in the emoji picker located above post/comment text areas.
I don’t think that’s a thing in jerboa ):
doesn’t Jerboa have an emoji picker?
If it does then I dunno where it is
Emojis on lemmy are just markdown links to images, you can use them by typing
copy-pasting an image in the text editor should automatically generate the link, you would just have to add what is between quotation marks.Exemple:
=
At that point, what’s the difference between posting an emoji and a picture?
Emojis remove the need to upload multiple images to the server, save you a trip to your image folder, and can easily be used inline as if they are part of a sentence. They also give instances their own flavor.
The way it’s used, the way it’s displayed. If you take that all the way all emojis everywhere are pictures. It’s a sociological difference I think.
Honeslty … Just posting arguments aganst them in with my .ml account so they cannont just hide behind blocking all grad accounts is very enlightening, they more or less ignore everything that is being said and keep trying to come up with a reason why it is not valid … never engaging
I do a lot of that with no expectation that I’ll change the particular person’s mind but rather for the larger audience.
It’s true. Arguing with someone whose mind is made up is to show those whose mind isn’t that there is a better, alternative way.
This belongs on [email protected], but with “loosing” fixed:
I keep struggling with the electoralism that has taken over the party the past few months. I get that elections are coming up and that thy are important but it’s just not what I signed up for. Makes it hard to get motivated.
The frustrating thing is that I have some activism things in mind that we can just roll out with some people which I think would put us on the map in a positive, rebellious way but I feel like my ideas get pushed to the side because everyone is so focussed on elections. And then we do some, in my eyes, cliche petitions kind of things.

I saw this on reddit and want to know your perspectives on Assad.
reddit opinion is not a representation of the people of a country. the people that use those subreddits are mostly americans.
As an example: reddit.com/r/china, /r/japan, /r/korea are all whites or 3rd gen who has visited the country once 15 years ago.
lol r japan and korea are whities who are nowhere close to native populace opinions. it’s so funny.
every single country subreddit is a shithole full of reactionaries.
To add to my previous comments about the polls:
Besides being the fourth biggest party in Flanders, we are also the third biggest in Wallonia and we even remain THE biggest party in EU and NATO capital Brussels
Brazil has ended all diplomatic ties with Israel and has recalled its ambassador.
THIS IS HUGE
News like this makes me wish I had a vuvuzela on hand.
And no other government besides Israel has criticized Lula’s speech.
Because it’s true
New polls again have us as the fourth biggest party in Flanders for upcoming elections.
With around 11% of the votes. Nearly 1 in 8 people is willing to vote communist.
Nearly 1 in 8 people is willing to vote communist.
Hype! Hype! Hype!
That’s fantastic news! Best I’ve heard in a while.
I made a mistake, I engaged with Zionists, I think I am going to lose my mind, its unbelievable.

I am posting more because I deleted Grindr which was practically my only social interaction as my friends are sadly adults with jobs. I appreciate every person interacting with me. Thank you for your labour.
