Should we allow the newly created "politics unfiltered" community to continue posting reactionary electoralist nonsense from clickbait tabloids, or should we show them the door?

    I just saw the post about Trump being the favor over KKKamala, and it was literally just the suggestion of some Australian politician. I think it could be argued that actual polling has some level of value, but just people saying stuff and making assertions should not be allowed.

    It's a joke about the Fed handbook about disrupting leftist organizing spaces with endless debate. If you're asking me for my actual opinion, I don't think organizational decisions should be deferred based on "whose the most oppressed", especially when there is no class analysis. It sounds comical, but there are "organizing spaces" where your ability to provide input is based on characteristics like "are you a colonizer?", "are you a man?", "are you bipoc", and so on.

    I think we should defer to whoever falls into the most categories of intersectional oppression. Until then, we should literally just do nothing, and maybe, we should just vote democrat in the meantime

    I think just starting with a walk around your neighborhood would do wonders for you. Whenever I haven't exercised in hot minute, I go for a 30 minute walk and I realize how better I feel after. An easier bar of entry in terms of capacity, and also mentally as well.

    That's assuming we're ignoring record oil production, and the US military (which is not even required to even report emissions). Even if that oil still goes to another country, that's by all means emissions on the US' part still.

    This seems like such a silly write up, but I'm noticing that it's not as easy for me to complete a task unless I'm at the absolute limit of time to where it needs to get done. For example, I needed to study for an exam over the course of a week...I just started today, and the exam is tomorrow 💀. I have 4 chapters to read to and just finished the 1st :'). On one hand, I think having that kind of sense of urgency is good when you're dealing with an "emergency", but like...its not really ideal to constantly be in "emergency" mode. Besides the obvious answer of doing stuff early, how do I stop doing this 😦...

    I had met this lady a few weeks ago who did numerology sessions on the side of her regular job. She had offered me a session at the time and I had refused. I ended up finding her number a few weeks later and had arranged to book a session. I had been seeing all these numbers repeating, and thought, why not have some fun, right? I don't really believe in that kinda stuff, but it would be interesting to see what values people ascribe to things as random as numbers, and see what I think about it. An hour session was gonna come out to upwards of 200+ dollars 💀 . I apologised saying I should've asked for a quote beforehand, but she tries to call me (I didn't pick up) and she then texts me that "people usually call me when they're in need and I recommend the session", but it's like...of course you would, you're making 200+ dollars off of me lol. No disrespect to her, but I hate that everyday interactions are warped by profit 😓. I get everyone has to eat, but damn, wtf?

    I'm getting legal aid to help, and I do have a fair bit of documentation (all timesheets, paystubs, questionable texts about scheduling from my boss, and even pictures of a few health code violations). What was the process like for you? How soon did you get money?

    I work in the service industry and I recently discovered that my coworkers, and I have not been getting our legally due overtime pay. I was honestly only made aware of the issue because one of my newer coworkers raised the issue of not getting paid overtime rates for work. This was some months ago, but I think the buried it in my mind because at the time, I genuinely did read the law wrong I'm pretty sure (I'm sure it's intentionally made confusing as well). I think all this was reignited in my mind because I recently asked my other coworker if we get overtime rates for Black Friday, and I ended up looking into the details. I'm not 100%, but all the other workers I asked at my job said that they either don't get it/ that they're supposed to get it/ how their employer did some little shifty accounting trick to finesse them out of overtime rates. I'm consulting a knowledgeable comrade about the laws, but there's legit no reason as to why would be exempt from being owed our legally due overtime rates. If I filed a wage complaint, I'd most definitely get fired, and who knows how else my boss might retaliate. He does know about my drug usage, and I'm sure he would use whatever information against me that he could. Maybe it's a bit of a harsh assessment to make, but capitalists will do whatever to protect their bottom line.

    Yesterday, a few comrades and I went out to pass out some flyers! This was probably the 2nd/ maybe 3rd time doing it? We went out in the evening, around the time people would be getting out for work, and people were hardly receptive 😢. I think I could have improved the outreach if I made my initial sales pitch/ reach out/ whatever you want to call it a bit more...personal I think? Y'know, that first thing you say when you approach someone. Also, I think I should stay away from using more yes/ no focused questions and maybe stick to statements? The topic of yesterday was focused around the coming prop 1 here in California, a prop to enshrine abortion in the California constitution. I pretty much asked "Hey, do you want a voter's guide" to most of the people walking by. Just wanted to post this because I'd love feedback, tips, comments, criticism, etc. from other comrades out there :3

    Regularly, I'd ignore it, but some Gusano sent me [this](https://iwpr.net/global-voices/havana-evictions-highlight-housing-shortage) and [this](https://diariodecuba.com/cuba/1656608219_40605.html). Is is true that evictions are being carried out in Cuba? In both links, it talks about how the people who were "evicted" were in abandoned buildings, so my bet is that the government doesn't want them in dilapidated buildings. I'd love some clarification on these matters, please.

    I've been tasked with watching this thing for about a month now, and I think I've been overwatering it maybe. The instructions say to either submerge pot in water for 5 minutes/ place 2 - 3 ice cubes...once a week. I was watering it like 2 a week with a spray bottle for the first few weeks. I just finished ice cubing it yesterday and it looks even worse I think. Last picture is the plant currently. Additional info, it's been very hot the past week and now. High 80's and 90's... ![](https://lemmygrad.ml/pictrs/image/046baa47-8abb-4286-8aab-7c24c5d63a81.jpeg) ![](https://lemmygrad.ml/pictrs/image/0c2e618b-349c-4e6f-93b6-e68afa8f1ff5.jpeg) ![](https://lemmygrad.ml/pictrs/image/9f611ffc-5cf0-4430-b399-fc4369e83908.jpeg) ![](https://lemmygrad.ml/pictrs/image/beeaa611-a6f0-438a-a3c1-0e1d3d2b756d.jpeg)

    It's one of those little things that irks me so much. I remember reading something about how the reparations germany had to pay were not at all excessive (especially when compared to other wars at the time). Someone brought it up, so naturally, I'd like to counter it.
