I don't think treating addiction like a health issue implies some libertine approach to drugs, there's plenty of room for regulation.

The real problem is that allowing addictive drugs to proliferate in a society where a large percentage of the population wants to die is a good way to collapse the economy. Why keep suffering when there's a way out?

The problem with treating addiction like a health issue is that the US does not treat its health issues.

No one cares about his death, not even the people on his side. That won't change even if we make fun of him, because no one cares if we make fun of him either. He's essentially irrelevant. That's why people keep getting court settlements for being fired.

But if the author translates their post into English, then French speakers still have to translate it back. The same problem happens.

No matter what you do, some people can't read what you post. Your choice is who you want to read it, and they probably don't care if Anglophones can read their post.

Exposure therapy works on phobias, that's why they're triggered by specific and uncommon things. If you're exposed to the tiny holes in paper towels all the time, they'll bother you less and less until eventually they might not even bother you at all.

I'm sure if I interacted with lotus seed pods all the time they wouldn't make me want to vomit and scratch my skin off.

just less of them

That's not a trivial problem. There will still be some programmers, but everyone will be competing for a shrinking number of jobs.

That's not a future with a stable career. That's a future where you're going to have to fight for the rest of your life to keep a job.

Unless the LLM hype craze dies down and they realize "oh actually we can't replace people yet" and they start hiring again.

Poor white people, they have it so hard. 😞

It's scaremongering, just like the bullshit "AI BROKE CONTAINMENT" stories.

Hucksters do this to make their technology seem a lot more impressive than it actually is. She's making wild and stupid claims about how great AI is and how easy it will be to train it to take everyone's jobs because she's selling a product. It's all bullshit.

We're all perfectly capable of using translation software. 🤷‍♀️

If vibe coding remains the norm and is actually sustainable, there won't be a reliable career. You'll be weavers being put out of work by the autoloom. You're worthless to them. What can you do that someone with six weeks (or less) of training can't?

Honestly, I'm amazed opposition to Israel was as high as it was before the war on Iran. The genocide had negligible impact on fuel prices, food prices, employment, or any direct material thing in the lives of yankees. Yet, they hated it. It was really heartening!

It gives me hope that, maybe, yankees aren't solely motivated by gas jumping 40 cents in the past week.

Another reddit.world community got mad at me for saying "death to US" and now I'm banned. That's fine! But why can't I block them now? I am forced to see their posts every time I go to /all and can't comment or vote, so am effectively forced to view content without any ability to interact.

I don't want to see their posts and should be able to block them from my /all feed

Here look! When I'm not banned there's a clear option to block the community:

But after being banned I now can't block the community, I'm forced to keep seeing it in my feed!

SOLVED: From the user settings page there is a tab for Blocks next to the tab for Settings, and you can manually search for the community you wish to block in a search bar. That worked, even if the UI on the community page was messed up by the block message.

Carmelized onions and garlic, cubed potatoes, bell peppers, and egg substitute; topped with hot-sauce, with a cup of white chai on the side.

Just a simple chili made with four tomatoes, one onion, half a bell pepper, a three chipotles in abado sauce, a clove of garlic, a couple tbsp of chili powder, a tbsp of oil, and then topped with nooch and air fried kidney beans.

I think I'll spring for mango or pineapple next time.

The greens are raw sweet peas and green onion.

I've been slowly adding more and more veggies through experimentation, but now I'm at the point where I either need to use bigger tortillas or just be more picky about which veggies I want 😅 this is the configuration I'm using right now, though in the summer I like to use avacado instead of sauce.

I heat the tortillas in a pan with a light coat of walnut oil and black pepper and assemble my fixins in the pan itself.

Sauce is also homemade! I save all the vinegar from pickled jalapenos and then mix that with equal parts coconut oil in a heated pan, then combine it with whatever seasoning I'm feeling like during that batch (rn I'm using nooche, though sometimes I go for an onion sauce or mustard). It's not super precise so there's no recipe, I've just got a feel from experimentation.

Also the fake-on bits are actually a cheap local veriety I've found. Basically just smoke and salt flavored crunchy soy chips.

Once I'm done, I pack up my chopped veggies to do this again in a couple days. I usually make four at a time every two days, and these are my pre-shift and mid-shift work meals. Served with a thicc pea protein chocolate drink.

Kidney beans and rice with taco seasoning, caramelized onion and garlic, and I found out I can get dried habaneros near me! Definitely growing those this year, I forgot how good they are (haven't had any since before the pandemic 🥲 )

Also that Perrona sauce is... okay. It's really sweat, throws off everything. Also not nearly as spicy as I was hoping! It's a cool color, you can't really tell but it's actually green, but it just didn't hurt me the way I like 😌

Pintos and white rice seasoned with cumin, cayenne, garlic, nooch, salt, msg, walnut oil, and then served with taco fixins on hard shells 💪

I used to think I didn't really like beans, but when I got an airfryer I decided to see what they'd be like if I cooked them differently. Amazing~✨

Smaller beans become a delicious crunchy topping or filling, highly recommended, but what's really interesting is those huge butter beans. They're disturbingly similar to chicken breast when cooked this way, so I cooked up some white rice, cut up some ice cold broccoli, and fried up some butter beans 8 minutes with walnut oil at 400^o^ F

And that's it! Super simple but so so sooo good.

In Khan Younis, many of those taking flight on Monday were already displaced from other areas. Abu Mohammed told Reuters it was now the third time he had been forced to flee since abandoning his home in Gaza City in the north.

"Why did they eject us from our homes in Gaza (City) if they planned to kill us here?" he said.

At a home in Khan Younis that was struck overnight, flames licked the collapsed masonry and grey smoke billowed out from the rubble. A child's stuffed toy of a sheep lay in a pile of dust. Boys were picking through the wreckage. Next door, Nesrine Abdelmoty stood amid damaged furniture in the rented room where she lives with her divorced daughter and two-year-old baby.

"We were sleeping at 5 a.m. when we felt things collapse, everything went upside down," she told Reuters. "They told (people) to move from the north to Khan Younis, since the south is safer. And now, they've bombed Khan Younis. Even Khan Younis is not safe now, and even if we move to Rafah, Rafah is not safe as well. Where do they want us to go?"
