Honestly, I am against it. I think we should collectively improve Lemmy and port whatever features make PieFed a worthy alternative. Better mod tools? Get them on lemmy instead. Lemmy's UI is much faster and responsive than PieFed, I have found. I just don't like seeing the community split over and over again. Even if they are federated services, it just splits the community and serves as friction of entry. Choice overload is a really thing, it may lead to decision paralysis and get us fewer and fewer people on these services.

I always wondered if family members of ICE members know that they are members... If I had a cousin that was ICE, I would go absolutely no contact with him, and would let everyone know that the guy is ICE. Wear your shitty mask, but people will know.

Someone should start an ICE database, where pictures of ICE people are posted, even masked. And let people who know them come forward and say "hey. I know the guy in picture X, it is John blabla". Then, bully those pieces of shit out of existence.

I know all about that. Trust me, I hate the guy. His podcast with Zelensky was pathetic. So were his remarks in the podcast episode next to that one.

Having said that: I dont have idols, but if I had, Terence Tao would be one of them. I will listen to the podcast regardless of Lex.

 

Hopefully this is not off-topic. If it is, please remove it.

Terence Tao one of the greatest mathematicians of all time, who normally never does podcasts, recently did a podcast on Lex Fridman's Podcast.

Absolutely agree. Maybe send them an e-mail? Though it shoudln't be too hard to convert using Calibre. Hopefully the resulting file is properly formatted. Regardless, they should definitely provide an .epub version. Shoot them an e-mail!

How do you deal with that age difference? I have a crush (gym crush) that is around 14 years younger than me. However, I don't approach him and I am quite apprehensive of doing so because of the age difference. We do say "hi" to each other and he does seem somewhat interested in talking to me.

I disagree. "street legal" IS anarchy. Anarchy may not be only street-legal, but it also is. Anarchy is anything whose goal is the abolition of hierarchies. Mutual Aid is anarchy. Is mutual aid not street legal? It is.

I think you have the wrong idea of what Anarchy is. Anarchy needs not be "chaos". Anarchy is cooperation.

I found this zine interesting and on-topic for Anarchy. These tactics should be in everyone's mind, specially nowadays.

You have several different formats in the link, pdf, doc, etc.

What is her job? Going around the world with seemingly unlimited funds and giving some interviews? Just sounds like a Kardashian with extra steps.

Yes, she did. She provided mutual aid. She might not have saved the entire world, but no one ever does. She helped a few, and that is more than anyone could say about you.

There is something very weary in people of "high status" or "power". I have never met them, but just seeing pictures of people like Trump make me so uncomfortable. There is something so weird to them. I am an atheist, but there is this intuition/feeling inside of me telling me that they are some sort of devil or a dangerous person. An all around "fakeness" to them.

I have noticed this with people high in the hierarchy ladder. It could just be because I am an anarchist, I despise hierarchies and I have distrust for authority and therefore, I despise them. But ya, I feel so uncomfortable near them. It is like looking at a fake item that everyone is admiring and I am screaming internally: "Do you not see how fake it is???".

Good luck brother! You said "young guy". What is the age difference?

People seem to be rising up, at least. Finally. Hopefully momentum keeps them going and they start organizing a bit better and being more impactful.. Let's start the revolution.
