I’m in the trades, we’ve only increased hiring.
That last sentence, "And I'm fighting for the very working people that he ran a campaign to empower that he has since then betrayed,” is very true.
The conservative people I work with DO NOT like what Trump is doing right now. Hope it hits fever pitch where they actually start doing something about it and send a very clear message. Trump won’t listen because he’s too much up a psychopathic narcissist but it may change the people around him to stop empowering him.
So, if both American and Dutch parents value independence, why do Dutch kids seem so much happier? I wonder if the key difference lies in how both sets of parents understand what freedom for kids looks like.
“Dutch parenting is all about raising self-sufficient kids,” Tracy told me. “My older two (ages 12 and 14) bike more than 10 kilometers (6 miles) daily to school since there are no school buses.
“If a teacher cancels a class, students just have free time instead of a substitute. My 14-year-old had two canceled classes this morning and simply stayed home until noon. This would be a logistical nightmare for schools and parents if we didn’t just expect our kids to sort it out.”
Dutch parenting, according to the close to a dozen parents in the Netherlands I spoke with, emphasizes allowing children a freedom of movement that many American kids don’t have. When I was in Haarlem and Amsterdam, bikes and little kids on bikes were everywhere.
Good article. We moved to an open concept neighborhood (low open fences, not “privacy” style) and the kids have a lot of movement around the neighborhood since it’s safe, and it has a lot of trails, wide sidewalks, and bike lanes. Yes, it’s more affluent. They’ve definitely been a lot happier than our last house where privacy fences were everywhere. They made friends a lot faster and seem to know everyone.
I was thinking the same thing. It really does describe it well.
This is exactly what came to mind when I read the question. Unbelievably cinematic moment. Still one of my favorite strategy games.
I’m definitely not seeing that on the instances I’m following. Ex. Calls for murdering the rich are not okay regardless of how someone feels.
I think Lemmy just don’t tolerate that view point. I see plenty of hard leftism being tolerated by mods when they shouldn’t. But hey, none of them are my instance. It’s grossly lopsided.
Any talk of religion in a non-negative way and the pitchforks come out.
The irrationality and hyper emotional state of a lot of commenters. Not saying there isn’t due cause these days* but people GET. A. GRIP. and control yourself. You aren’t helping others or yourself with that behavior. It’s super immature.
*I’m not talking about being angry. I’m talking about how do I go on living emotional responses.
That’s what happened. It’s not the solution.
One of the more interesting museum exhibits we’ve seen. This room at the History Colorado Center is calming and serene with the transition from night with stars moving on the ceiling and insect noises to twilight with the clouds moving and the birds singing. It was a blood pressure dropper and my youngest loved it.
My prints come out very well but I’m noticing on larger prints that one corner of my bed prints tighter than the opposite. What’s causing this?
Printing on an Ender 3 Pro with upgraded metal extruder, beefier bed springs and metal levelers, and upgraded hot end. Not direct drive yet and no auto bed leveling.
