one of my least controversial opinions is that, during summer, schools should be converted to extracurricular community centers for kids (that still provide breakfast and lunch) instead of being left empty for months.
@flowflow_2slow@NadaWha58125@tyl0saur split personality is protagonist+villain, if the character has low insight (most common), or protag+antagonist, if they have high insight. the latter is similar to addiction, ig
alternative universes would be more like character A vs. character A', meaning different characters
@o_ovice@Lvkka_ adapting and filling in/compensating for gaps is the basis of succeeding in solo queue, after all.
it's pretty awful, though, since most players who would do that for their team are probably the ones who should be in positions that optimise carrying.
@clauseway@the_abelhinha bro, olha o de Coimbra 😭😭 uma universidade histórica aqui spawnada para sermos a vodafone lite gótica dfkm
nem sei o que diga ao do Porto 💀
🇲🇽 O México aprovou uma lei para que as eleições sejam anuladas caso haja intervenção estrangeira nos processos eleitorais. O Brasil deveria seguir o exemplo e endurecer suas leis eleitorais contra qualquer tipo de interferência estrangeira nas eleições.
America should have a universal job guarantee. We have so much work to do as a country. We should have centers that I can show up to at 7am with my ID and get assigned work for the day. Trash clean up, food pantry distribution I mean the possibilities are endless
@paRkeateR@revsbb 'homens' e 'mulheres' (ênfase nas aspas) a dizerem "meteram-se a jeito" como se fosse completamente natural um gajo violar uma mulher. devia ser tudo decapitado em praça pública.
Democracy only spread because it was the best system for producing compliant trading partners.
A democracy has elections. Elections require parties. Parties require financing. Financing requires capital. Capital has interests. So by design, every democracy in the world has a built-in mechanism that ensures the people with money have disproportionate access to the people with power.
You don’t need to bribe a dictator and hope he stays in power. In a democracy, you just fund both candidates and own the outcome regardless.
This is why US spent the Cold War toppling democracies that elected the wrong people Mossadegh in Iran, Allende in Chile, Lumumba in Congo and replacing them with dictators who were more “stable.” Stable meaning: predictable to capital.
The genius of it is the aesthetics. Democracy looks like self-determination. It has flags and anthems and moving inauguration speeches. People will die for it. But the operating system underneath is remarkably friendly to concentrated wealth arguably more so than overt authoritarianism, which at least makes the power visible.
The most honest political scientists will tell you: what actually spread after 1989 was markets. Democracy was the packaging.
And the packaging worked so well that the people inside it genuinely believe they’re free which is the final, most elegant feature of the system.
A cage you can’t see is the strongest cage ever built.
Never Forget: When the Panama Papers came out it revealed all the richest people in the world are part of an enormous conspiracy to dodge taxes and hoard stolen wealth in offshore accounts and nothing happened except a reporter working on the story was assassinated.
@Gatosensuali@expresso mas não era com o governo do PS que isto andava um completo "bar aberto" ? não foi com eles que entraram mais imigrantes?
das duas uma, ou o governo AD é pior do que o do PS em termos de emigração ou é pior em gestão de recursos do SNS, decide tu.
@estamosdefolga@LuanaaAlvesF_ obviamente, os portugueses tendem a ser mais identificados como 'lusos'/'iberos', ou até 'mediterrâneos', mas não elimina o facto de sermos, neste sentido, 'latinos'.
** "povo que mais diretamente descende dos romanos" comparativamente aos latino-americanos, não em termos gerais
@estamosdefolga@LuanaaAlvesF_ tecnicamente, nós somos o povo que, em parte, mais diretamente descende dos romanos, o que nos torna 'latinos'. eles eram 'americanos' e passaram a ser 'latino-americanos' pós-colonização. atualmente, são dominados "latinos" por uma questão natural de preguiça linguística.
