I also disagree with conscription. But even if you think it’s a good idea, you’re equating a national service requirement to mandating women speak to men (presumably many of whom they have no interest in). This is just getting wilder and wilder.
"it should be mandatory for women to "
Is a wild thing to put in absolutely any sentence.
As usual, the nuanced answer that doesn’t oversimplify the complexities is the best one. Good answer.
I bet women 30-40 years ago would have loved to see this answer too. It’s a good thing that the world has changed in this regard.
Ah yeah. We really need another word for that other-nationality bigotry.
For your europe example, If it’s related solely to someone’s personality then it’s not racism by definition. If it’s claimed that it’s based on personality, but the claim only appears in relation to people who look different in a particular way, then it’s racism masquerading as something else.
Maybe the only real difference you’re seeing is that Europeans are a lot more subtle than Americans (culturally).
You realise we can vote for third parties here, right?
Concise, funny, and correct. Good work.

Hah, I used kdenlive in like 2008 to make a 3 minute clip out of a bunch of pre existing material. It was buggy as hell, and crashed every 5-10 operations. But I just saved a lot and got it done. Glad to see it’s still going (and presumably a lot more stable!)

I don’t really remember, I guess that wasn’t a problem for me. Do you mean the left brain/right brain thing? I think I just treated that as metaphorical…
Good to find out you’re right, huh? 😁
Of course there are still lots of technique related skills to learn too, but this is by far the biggest boost I ever got.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t make it all the way through, but the core concepts are explained well on the first few chapters, and some of the early exercises are good enough to give a pretty deep understanding of how it works. The two exercises that really hit home for me were the one where you re-draw the line drawing of the man, and then do it again upside down;, and the excerise where you draw the empty shapes between and around a chair.
Get yourself a copy of Betty Edwards’ Drawing On The Right Side Of The Brain. Her main point is that drawing isn’t your problem, seeing is, because the logical component of the brain gets in the way of the visual cortex, and wants to draw symbols for things, instead of the actual shapes and shades. The book is packed with exercises that will flip your brain into understanding how to see. Then it’s just a matter of practice, but it feels a lot less daunting then, because it also gives you the tools to better critique your own drawings constructively.
It’s a post sorting option on your instance home page. I basically sorts by recent activity, but normalised by community size, so if something gets 10 upvotes on a community with 100 users it will be pushed much higher than a post with 10 upvotes from a community with 2k users
Oh, I mostly use it with subscribed, not all, perhaps that’s the difference?
That sucks dude. I hope some change shows up for you at some point.
Use Scaled, it’s awesome. Much better visibility on small communities, so less dominated with samey news.

Women do already approach men. But not ones they aren’t interested in… So it’s kind of hard to interpret your “mandatory” any other way.
Unless what you’re saying is that it should be mandatory that men don’t approach women first, which kind of sounds like you’re making the argument for the thing you’re raging against.
