I wish more effort was put in to gamifying education courses.

He didn’t accomplish anything though did he?

Except the gunman was killed right? So he wouldn’t be able to try again.

Ask yourself, in 6 months time will you be able to find another contract job or employed job easily? If the answer is yes then I’d say go for it and get the extra experience.

No worries. I can see how it’d be interpreted like that. Especially given the amount of what aboutism we see in the comments.

I also struggle with Lemmy comments as I’m usually writing here tired in my ‘downtime’ between other responsibilities. You guys get the worst of me! Haha

I can’t work out your tone from this text. Are you suggesting I’m saying it’s okay that either of these things happening?

I’d say that if NATO are willing to point out China funding Russia, they should also be capable of the self reflection to admit their own faults too.

I get that this wouldn’t work politically though. It’s just really frustrating to see such an obvious scream at a mirror.

The only way they could enable Russia more is by directly sending them munitions.

It does seem rich for NATO to call China out on this when NATO members are sending Israel weapons and enabling a different genocide.

Maybe there’s some reason that’s different but I definitely don’t understand it off the top of my head.

Yeah let all it quits. I’m really struggling to follow you.

I guess wanting them in, and feeling that it’s appropriate to bring them in right now are two different things.

As they’ve said. They want them in. That’s not the same as thinking they should be in now.

I want to retire, but retiring right now is not appropriate.

There must be a few thousand of them:

I was thinking the other day that they may have made it illegal again so they can search someone when they smell it. Under a law where it’s only legal to have a certain amount, I wonder if they can assert the same control under suspicion that they have too much.

Can you imagine the marketing though?! Man they’d have some fun with that.

I’m imagining the PG tips monkey making an appearance.

Right. And if I say that I’m changing my diet to fit with my neighbours, that doesn’t make me part of neighbour’s family.

I get what you’re saying, they were aligning themselves to become NATO members. That’s not the same as what’s happening now though where NATO are saying “yes we want them in”, which is an outcome Russia has caused by this invasion.

Edit- just another note…both of these occurred since Russia annexed Crimea, which could definitely be construed as aggressive behaviour on Russia’s part. Again pointing towards Russia causing an outcome they’re claiming to have a problem with.

Funny how there was no reply to this comment. I wonder why they didn’t get back to you. Maybe they needed to cook dinner, or go to work, or rethink their entire life.

I hope it’s the last one but I’m not counting on it.

I think your downvotes are because your “reversal” is not particularly valid, not because your opinion is contrary.

As others have said, it would need the US to first be invading Mexico before Russia or other countries start propping Mexico up militarily.

Ukraine not joining NATO

Russia invade Ukraine

NATO now very open to Ukraine joining due to a Russian threat.

See how Russia is causing the NATO membership? Not preventing it.

To me it feels like Russia saying they’re invading due to NATO is just a smokescreen for something else, and a way to get support from their population.

And as it’s caused the NATO membership, Russians can now say “see! We told you so! They are joining just like we said!”, ignoring that they’ve directly caused this outcome.

I wonder if the main reason for this is just to try and better secure the black sea for some reason.

The distinction that has been made here is that “NSFW” only means "pornography

Who has made this distinction? NSFW in my opinion is anything that is, you know, not safe for work.

That would include pretty much any explicit content. Extreme gore for example would be another type of content which isn’t really safe for work.

Probably also images of self harm.

However, alot of content on Lemmy doesn’t fall in to the above criteria, so it is ‘safe’ for work. Just like how light magazines are appropriate for work, but a porn mag isn’t.

I mean, most countries don’t stay the same for 10 years. Also. Most people get more fearful over their children getting hurt as they get older, and the parent loses control.

Sounds like this person is just getting older and doesn’t realise they’re fitting into a pretty well known stereotype of parents.

Is it to prevent? Or just bring more tourism money to the town?
