Also from Germany. Some american news and media sites do that.

Infowars tells you Nazis are something you disagree with? Haven’t heard from them in a while. Would have thought they’d quietly drop the Nazis are evil thing.

Why doesn't the United Kingdom rejoin the European Union?

Admittedly, I don’t know much about Brexit, but from what I have been exposed to, it seems like a decisively economical and political impairment that made travel and business with the rest of Europe more difficult and costly. Since it is so highly criticized as a terrible move, why doesn’t the UK just rejoin the EU?

Yup. And the rerendum wasn’t even legally binding.

I think humans tended to do such epic face plants for a lot longer. But these days every idiot and their dog has a smartphone to record everything and an internet connection to share it to the world. You look a lot more silly with your epic face plant if it’s captured in 4K and broadcast to the world.

Random side note: if you want to hear about a rather epic historical face plant there’s a good video on the Erfurt latrine disaster on YouTube.

What a compelling argument.

Pandoras_Can_Opener,

Same for France and Italy. Nobody is making loud noises about leaving the EU anymore.

I really would like to see reactions from France if Britain makes moves to rejoin.

It seems the British (IMO the English in particular) need to eat humble pie and the way to make them is sadly economic ruin.

It’s no good letting in somebody who is that flaky and loud and proud about it.

I got the impression the modern British are an extreme manifestation of “truth hurts”.

Also your mates and family don’t really get how your marriage worked and didn’t like your ex’s politics for confused reasons.

Making the same concessions and signal to every other country that you can just hop in and out on a whim? Uhhh I have a bridge to sell you if you really believe that.

The thing is your electorate let itself be manipulated like that and as you said the perpetrators are still very much at large. It follows they will manipulate the electorate again and there’s no reason to believe the same demographic won’t easily fall for new lies. (Unless they died off.)

This sucks for the Brits who knew better but it also means the EU would let an unreliable partner back in if nothing changed. It seems the pro Brexit crowd will need to learn the hard way that no really you were lied to and you still have to bear the consequences of your own actions (vote).

Being lied to isn’t an excuse to accept racist fearmongering and plainly suicidal economic reasoning. Nor is it an excuse for the project fear slander that happened at the time. They were lied to and were also told the truth. And you who voted to stay also need to learn that your vote doesn’t abdicate Britain either. You’re in this together.

I’m autistic, non binary, have ex family members that kind of home cooked their own cult, I’m an atheist now. there’s plenty of emotional abuse in the ex family. Went to a Christian private school (different denomination than the cult), I’m intellectually gifted and chronically ill. There’s some ADHD ex family members thrown in, I’ve spent some time I an African country and my current bestie is my cat. Currently using all my skills from studying a life science to improve my chronic illness situation.

I think there’s some demographics that might be interested. Still not sure whether to actually write it.

I have had several experiences with therapists ranging from atrocious and potentially life threatening to merely unhelpful. I know therapy can be an important and very helpful tool tho. I’d be most interested in your perspective in how therapists can abuse their position of power but also be a force of good.

That’s a nice thought. Thank you!

A review: some major gaps, wish they had explored the bit with the school and webcomic more, interesting effort overall. 3 out of 5 stars

Oh that looks like a fun “discussion” about feeding schedule.

This brave little guy just had surgery. (lemmy.ninja)

Scooter had the last of his teeth (besides the canines) pulled today. Poor little guy has stomatitis which means he’s allergic to his own tooth enamel. The vet said it was the worst case he’s ever seen but the gums around the teeth that were pulled last time are looking much better, so hopefully this will be the end of his...

Poor scooter! My Pandora had tooth extraction surgery this year too because she has an autoimmune disorder attacking her teeth. I hope scooter adjusts well to toothless life and is not in pain anymore.

There’s a nice saying in the community of people who heal from childhood abuse: don’t set yourself on fire to keep others warm. I always found it to be a powerful and succinct way of describing toxic people pleasing.

Good for autumn. She’s special in the best way.

Pandoras_Can_Opener,

Aww thanks for the extra kitty. Striking eyes indeed. Do they still work properly? Mine also has rounder ears with a little lynx like tuft. And no teeth due to an autoimmune disorder.

For a minute I thought that’s my own cat. Autumn looks very comfy.

Some cats are so overwhelmingly happy at every bit of attention after they get adopted. May she have as many jingling play sessions as she wants. ❤️❤️

I love that the boss is such a good sport about it.

Idk her very pronounced chin and the black lips always throw me off a bit. She’s ecstatic about the sun in this picture but she doesn’t look it to me.
