I've been a social media junkie for several years now. Covid-19 made it bad, Russia starting a war made it worse. I got back to my grind at Elite Dangerous a few weeks ago. I've been grinding materials and fed rep several hours every day. It's almost a meditate experience compared to being worried about everything all the time. And now I noticed that when the game is off, I'm not spending 90% of my remaining time reading social media and news, and I have the energy to actually plan and do stuff. So grind on captains o7

    None for otherwise.

    A ceasefire may allow Hamas to regroup and survive, which would be a bad thing. Then again, from my couch it seems like IDF is not about to destroy Hamas completely with this war.

    I think there's clearly some societal benefits to distributing the work of maintaining housing in this way. Is there a cartel making the prices go up more than they should in a working market or what is the reason for it?

    It makes sense politically. GOP's politics are pretty much identical to those of United Russia. But letting this seep into geopolitical issues is treasonous.

    Are you going to discredit footage shot from a video camera because “video cameras don’t spawn in air in real life, dude”?

    I deem it questionable based on that. The internet is full of videos that are cut conveniently or shown without context in order to paint a dishonest picture.

    Yeah I'm definitely not gonna donate money to people who are publically and proudly communists.

    I might donate to my local instance though. They seem like cool cats.
