Agreed. I suspect we are nearly there.

Depends on the country for much of this I’d imagine. If your dependent on imports of common needs then you’d be creating a need for a massive transit network to supply it.
Though the study should focus on the number and not how people use it. I could speculate that if all your neighbours have the same number as you you’d be tolerant of that.
Yhea thatd probably increase the score a bit. I whouldnt consider any kind if offsetting either. Even if your taxes go to Healthcare and support systems it doesn’t subtract from the amount going to military spending, wars, weapons, ect. Even smaller things like road expansions, and law enforcement count. Depending on the area these can cause more death.
I found a bug once in our content that only affected Firefox. Old versions of articulate whouldnt start properly. Not somthing I could fix on my own as i meeded anyoher department. I brought it to the attention of the managers. They didn’t want to fox it as apprently Google analytics showed only .4% of our user base was using Firefox. I manged to convince them its part of our user commitment to ensure that we work consistently across all browsers, but it was a pain.
I was doing food prep as they are eating. I’d feed him then make my own food and his next meal. He didn’t care about what I was doing as he was either too busy eating or enjoying his post food nap.
You could try preparing the food ahead of time if possible?
This may eveually cause them to release that the preparation of food doesn’t always mean that they will recieve the food.
Or they will just annoy you at all times you are in the kitchen.
Might get less down votes if you uploaded the image to lemmy instead of linking folks to a reddit image. Reddit isn’t exactly popular in these parts.
Well you should wash you hands after wiping, before you touch your phone.
Agreed, I’m new too the community but I am sure if OP asked this in autism@lemmy.world it would be just fine. Folks there are very kind.
In my family we’d joke Star Trek was closer to our religion then any other nonsense. We’d at least have a ritual around gathering as a family to watch it. I’m the only diagnosed one but I assume my family is thick with Nerodivergency. Also I’m not even that into trek.
When I was about 6 my older brother told me Santa didn’t exist and I was like “yhea that makes sense”. He also mentioned God didn’t exist and again and I reponded “well of course not”. At some point in my life the existence of Santa was more believable then the idea of God.
Growing up I was exposed to so many differnt cultures, differnt Gods. I think they are all valid, it is important to be secular within reason. Honestly, I’ve been a part of enough nerdy Fandoms over the years to see the parallels. I’d no more insult the Christian God then I whould Picard.
More to the question though it may have to donwith the whole sense of community and belonging thing.
From my understanding churches are a pretty vulnerable experience, there’s signing (potentally loud singinging), confessing of sins, forced friendliness, and positive expressions, and higtened emotions. It seems incredibly socially draining. If I had to do that unto school I’d have had a considerably more breakdowns as a kid.
I’ll provide this.

If you’re not into vinesauce he’s an older variety streamer from the pre twitch days. Lot of his stuff is finding obscure and terrible games. Halflife amd its mods being a favorite of his.
This video is him explaining what it is, from an outsiders perspective. He goes through a some of the garbage explotive stuff that’s comming from it but also has his friend AgentRedJackel interview some fans of it via vrChat.
I found it was a good summary of everything you need to know without actually getting into it.
I assumed these appeared as civilian vehicals from the back so speeders whould zoom past them.
It also forbids stagnation, it can built a bigger and better holiday
We can have these without the commercialism can’t we? Homemade decorations and costumes have more value and the act of making them with your family provides the time to talk about what these traditions are about.
Now what happens to a religion that is, for the most part, now separated from capitalism?
I wouldn’t be shocked at protest over Walmart not selling 20foot glitter crusted crucifixes or whatever. But I think most know the difference between defiance of religious values and non-compliance. I’m for up north though so there’s a little less zeal.
Also shooting up a Walmart probably ain’t the best move. Folks there are likley armed to the teeth and itching to shoot back.
I’d call that the shock period. But imagine that would be temporary and less bad then we think.
Eventually I’d hope for less stores that only open for the holiday season and only hire for the rush. Things could just spread out more and we’d all be less dependent in revenue created from one event. We could focus our buying power on useful things and less cheap plastic crap bought to appease old rituals.
All very optimistic and unrealistic thoughts though
It pretty subjective I don’t know much about Thanksgiving as a Canadian we have we have a differnt one then the US. I never understood what ours was even about other then turkey. So if it’s religious then I honestly had no clue.
As many others have pointed out. If we strip all meaning of these events and just make the entirely commercial then it doesn’t much matter if they where intended as religious events or not.
With that in mind I wonder if separating the events from capitalism might actually empower them…
No worries. It was shocking relivent for a wrong post.
Advice I’d give is to get some proper gaff tape for those wires. It will prevent trips and protect them. There os a specific way to apply and remove the tape when gaffing you may want to look up. This will prevent any potential floor damage.
