For me it’s cleaning. There’s so much of it to do every single day, day out and day in and it never stops. And to add insult to injury the mess and the clutter adds to the baseline stress level that makes everything, including cleaning, harder to do.

Why are you doxxing me like this?
SoyViking [he/him]@hexbear.netto Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•About apocalypse shows...English8·4 days agoIt is kind of hard to make good drama out of “everybody is doing farming and helping eachother to get the best out of a shitty situation”. It is a lot easier to imagine a good narrative when there’s conflict, danger and violence in the picture. The capitalist idea of “human nature” as inherently selfish and evil also push writers towards the more violent narratives.
But could you make a good and engaging narrative based on the premise that humans are inherently good and altruistic? While danger makes a story engaging that danger doesn’t have to come from Mad Max style psychos in bondage gear. The dangers facing the post-apocalyptical society could be the dangers connected to surviving in a world where all supply chains and infrastructure is gone and people have to relearn subsistence farming fast not to starve to death. The danger could also come from the before times, like radioactive fallout or whatever. You could even throw a few leather enthusiasts with guns in the mix but present them as the unsustainable anomaly such marauders would be.
No, I don’t have a huge vocabulary because I am some genius. I have it because I need to have lots of words for the same thing to make up for my memory recall fail rate.

SoyViking [he/him]@hexbear.netto Privacy@lemmy.ml•snowden on "nothing to hide, nothing to fear"English321·26 days agoGoebbels certainly didn’t believe in the right to privacy but there is nothing connecting him to the “if you have nothing to hide…” quote. He certainly wasn’t the first to come up with it, as it can be found in a 1917 piece by Upton Sinclair.
It seems like Goebbels’ connection to the quote is one of these “it feels so true that it has to be true” misattributions that floats around on the internet and in popular culture.
And by the way, the NSA are Nazis, they are bad people doing bad things for evil reasons.
SoyViking [he/him]@hexbear.netto World News@lemmy.ml•'Civilized People Do Not Starve Children to Death': Sanders Rips US-Backed Israel's 68-Day Gaza Aid Blockade | Common DreamsEnglish8·26 days agoI disagree. “Primitive” hunter/gatherer people would never deliberately starve children to death. To do something that evil you need civilization.
It takes a very complex society with a sophisticated ideological superstructure and to dehumanise people so much.

However the real culprit regarding the flight attendants and pilots are airlines like Wizz Air who are not only chosing to collaborate with a genocidal fascist regime but also to put their employees in harms way.

It was they who chose to place terrorist infrastructure at the centre of a civilian airport.
