If you're leaving what's the issue exactly? There are countless people who are incompetent at being a proper boss or client. You can try to educate them. If they're power tripping it's best to find something new.

Regarding communication I think the most important skill is to actually say what you want to say. What your needs are. It sounds obvious and easy but once you consciously try it you'll see that it takes a lot of practice.

The issue is that being indirect or expecting people to just get it just doesn't work. There aren't many people out there who are that sensitive and insightful, and they'll just keep filling in the gaps with their own perspective again and again. Even when you are being direct they will, but at least it gives someone the opportunity to think about it and possibly adjust. Most people mean well.

The next generation has some poker scenes. There's one episode where they are stuck in a simulation of a casino and can't escape.

That I'm a gay n word. Like, I am neither so what's up with that? He quickly biked off and I couldn't get him to clarify.

Recognizing how my desires are never truly satisfied, and they cause me suffering. How they constantly shift and always want more. In other words I let go of my judgment and accept what I see. That doesn't mean I don't judge it at all or don't change it. It just means I'm not attached to the desire to change things. It's just a feeling, and I can act on it, but it's a conscious decision rather than a habit.

Feels a bit like that one time a meat eater accused me of drinking soy milk, because apparently that's causing deforestation. She seemed to forget that livestock eat a great amount of soy.

They always have their cherry picked excuses.

Just because you think you have a good grip on reality, doesn't mean you do. Perhaps you don't fully understand the situation. Maybe the trolley will come to a halt on its own unless you pull the lever. See realpolitik and ww1.

I remember tencent being on stage at a game dev conference and talking like they'd offer anyone a boatload of cash, around 2009. The room went eerily silent, it was creepy!

Also, I've had guests from all over the world and I've always asked them for a positive and a negative thing about the place they're from, so I can get an idea. It was only the Chinese and Russians who acted like their home countries were absolutely perfect, and they literally couldn't name one thing. Talking politics was considered rude, and they felt it's better if someone else is in control.

It's good for all of us to be privacy literate, given that things can take a turn for the worse in many places, or already are bad. There was a post a few days ago that highlighted how the vast majority of trans people rely on internet access 🤔

I'll start by saying that matrix seems to be a solid solution for communication, and tor for accessing information. It's worth it to get familiar with them before you need them yourself, but also to understand them as a community so we can support each other globally 🏳️‍⚧️

I am also wondering if any of you are familiar with getting around network restrictions. For example a DIY mesh network? 📡

Don't give up. Eat your breakfast. Be ready to open the door. Sometimes I just can't take it anymore. A shoe lace here, a shoe lace there, all tangled up and poor.

I ruminate in the deepest point of darkness. In the eye of the singularity and at the heart of warmth. Thuds of fire strike upon the distant shore.

I pull and I pull, but I cannot free my neck. And my face runs pale, and my experience runs thin. I gasp for air, and I let it in.

An oasis in my breath. The orange of orange juice. And I, and I can be found in the blue sky, by the grace one cannot lose.

When last night I lay in pain, I snapped this just for you, as the moon came.

Hey lovelies, open question: Are any of you into self defense and do you want to share something with the rest of us?

I mean, whenever I hear an alarm I ignore it, because I just hear it so often. But what if instead we used these types of alarms for real emergencies? For example a personal alarm to protect yourself.

As far as I'm concerned this is a free speech comment section. Just don't forget the people who might be reading this and the beelaw.
