Omfg. What a trash article. Great examples of the spin the politicians are trying on, of tiktok. because people can use it to unite against an unjust system and that made them scared and therefore launch a negative campaign and force a take over of the whole app. I mean, come on!! Such a bad article.
There's more misinformation on fb. Marky Z, when asked why he let's all a that just spread around, said, he thinks people can just tell stuff is lies by looking at it. He knows that isn't true.
Like how you turn off your TV, and it will still respond to the remote the next time you press the power button and turn it on. It's literally exactly the same thing. It has a power button, it's Bluetooth controlled (so is my telly and the telly remote) but when in power off, same as you would power off a playstation or computer (but that's a hard press button, not a remote) the headphones or speakers you Bluetooth connect, connect to it. I would assume it's the Bluetooth connectivity, is receptive to everything, but it's just sus because it's Google and it essentially always therefore has its ears open, because everything that connects to it has a microphone. Even its own remote.
Are remakes ever for a new generation? Aren't they just for the original people who liked it, and they hope a new gen will like the new content,, but they never do?
Maybe you can explain to me why my chromecast connects to my speakers and headphones when it's entirely powered off? Because I don't have as positive a view of it as you do. Maybe it's not as nefarious as I'm thinking it is?
Yeah! She didn't get very far with it. They kept running her around in circles. If we're talking about the same one.... I mean that's probably gotta happen a lot, really.
Idea is good, in principal. Can I just offer some thoughts to get things happening smoothly.
Bullying, what type? I can only offer general overall advice without specifics. So I'll offer some food for thought, What if that person is neurodivergent and doesn't understand they're bullying, or coming across too blunt. I would suggest, address the behaviour directly, succinctly and without judgement.
Talk as if they're an alien and don't understand our culture, and you have belief once they understand they will step up. But say it as plainly, in the least amount of words possible. Don't leave room to debate, just straight plain facts. This causes this. Please don't.
Ask how you can help them be more effective in positive engagement.
On a personal note it's always a good idea to listen to the messages your body is giving you, those emotions are a need your body has, it isn't about anyone else, it's about your lived experience and how comfortable you are in your environment. Times you haven't felt safe can be a trigger for you in the future, and then bullies words hurt more. If you feel you have unhealed trauma or a low sense of self and self worth because the world in general has chewed you up, (which it does so often it's almost a universal experience) find and build on yourself in those areas. It doesn't minimise that the bullies are harmful, just utilise their efforts to find places you can up skill and heal, if they are being highlighted for you. They still suck. You just take what they give you and turn it into a tool to build on yourself and build yourself up. Be genuine, curious and open and deep dive on your feelings. Eventually, after studying what's freely available out there and uplevelling your sense of self, you start to see all of the bullies behaviours are entirely about their own broken insides and damage. It's really hard to be upset by words from someone you pity.
Avoiding toxic environments is a better way to live. Finding ways to make that environment non toxic is a good life philosophy. Do your labour laws already have protections built in to protect you from psychological abusive type behaviours in the workplace?
Ooooh! And and! Apparently they contain newly discovered flavours of nano plastics too! Exciting stuff, gals!
You would probably drive more carefully with cake, than "the weather is bad", anyway. So probably a better way to advise. Cake and half full fish tanks, because you're too lazy to empty them the whole way...
It doesn have to have exactly the same number of people die. It's a genocide and they're literally trying to kill all of the Palestinians. It's not about matching numbers, it's about the definition.
Contribute to society, or do they really mean optimal funnelling of the profits from your labour up to the rich?
All we have to do is unite. There's more of us than them. And we don't even have to protest or leave our homes. They all bow down to the mighty dollar, all we have to do is plan not to buy from 'company A' unless they 'insert world fixing demand that they're currently doing the opposite of' ' knock them down one by one. We could even pool together a dollar or two each, that's all we'd need if we got enough people together and buy ourselves our very own Politician!! We may even be able to buy them all back.... That's probably pipe dreams. We need to make Poole's union.
I'm doing a course for cyber security at my local tafe, and thier website only works on Chrome. Go. Figure.
They really just see people as ants in a display, don't they.

I'm fighting a similar parenting battle myself, currently. I'm a sole parent, tho. So I'm just fighting with myself. I'm trying to set limits for my kids, but I'm just not able to enforce them. I have my grandson living with me in kinship care, and he is extremely high needs, my 15yo is high needs, so my 12 yo gets no attention and has slipped into device addiction, I set limits, very minimal limits, mind you, because I'm trying to weeny her down, she still sneaks around them, then I take them away entirely. I took them away for a month, after warning her about 10 times that I would if I caught her again. She was absolutely fine after a week. Maybe make your partner a bet, lol. Is your partner the one at home with them mostly? Or do you both work long hours?
Omg, best news story of the day. This brought me a shit ton of joy.
I am loving this so much, there aren't words. But I'll try. I'm such a fan, my heart is trying to burst out of my chest at the thought of this book. When I found, HE VOICES HIS AUDIOBOOK! That had to be the way to read this book, the first time. He does not disappoint, he pulls you into his world with the same talent he has, to do the same, in his works on screen. And what a life! To give you a feel for the tone, I feel his influences in the way he presents his story, I can feel spike Milligan in there, and probably more influences, I'm less familiar with, it also genuinely feels like he's a relative of Douglas Adams, with the way he describes the world and events that have formed his life. There's no grandstanding, he's humble and stoic and walks through the story with you, not at you. You're right there, rebelling against all the things in his life that tried to constrain him and break his spirit, but couldn't even slightly dull his shine. I laugh! It's funny! Even though some of the stuff he has lived through is genuinely heartbreaking, he tells it with the whimsy of someone who couldn't be broken, even though they tried so very hard, and he took all that they threw at him and used it to fuel his life, he turned all of that into a commodity for himself and found a way of enjoying his life, from the darkness. He, not only is a brilliant and genius comedian (imo) he's an inspiration in how to walk through this world, and take all the lemons and make a lime vodka. If you need something to lift you out of the darkness, right now, I would highly suggest picking up this book, in any form.
I'm an Australian, I'm probs fking with you, we can't help it, I think. Probably something to do with all the hostile shit around us and adapting to it, or something. All meant in good spirits! If you think we're laughing at you, think about the stupid shit we just did to get that laugh.
