  • They actually believed the early warnings, that’s why they rushed to his rescue. but they were not exaggerated, they were lies. There were no wolves, he only wanted the attention.

    This is not what happened here with the word “fascist” or “Nazi”. These people were always fascists, but really intelligent ones so they knew how to gaslight anyone into thinking they weren’t. Maybe sometimes they didn’t know it till the end, but that doesn’t make them less fascist.

    So if you wanted to use an analogy, maybe you would say the boy in the story was attacked multiple times by wolves dressed like sheep. He cried for help and people rushed to his rescue. But the people always were really disappointed in him, cause there were never wolves, only sheep. And in the end everybody gets eaten, because the so called sheep actually were wolves.

    I mean don’t get me wrong, I know what you tried to say, but your analogy was technically wrong.








  • And the crazy part of this philanthropy is that there’s no guarantee to anything. These oligarchs live like kings amongst men and we can see ourselves lucky to be in the light of their philanthropic sun.

    I mean yes thank you Bill Gates for not being such a dipshit like Elon, but I also think that this kind of power should not be in the hands of individuals ever.

    Cause as you said: the harm they caused (actively or passively by f.e. not paying taxes in countries outside the US and therefore stealing money from governments and people) can never be fixed by any philanthropy.

    You just don’t get that kind of rich without being an asshole along the way.


  • That’s what I wanted to say as well. Not only national video calls but also regularly calling across the globe in video group calls, no problem whatsoever.

    It wasn’t easy to establish back in the day, but since Skype is no alternative anymore, it should be a very good argument in favor of signal.

    Only downside I had today: can’t have the same account on two Android devices. Desktop (Linux in my case) no problem to Link to my signal app on my android phone, but I was not able to use it on my android tablet today. Or was it just me, and there is a way?




  • This detail makes all the difference. At least one of you guys will have the energy, and you’ll just have to manage your lives very transparently. Rather then expecting things, say them out loud to each other, communication will make a big deal.

    You’ll be fine, as long as you manage your expectations of the life you will have together clearly.

    And although it might seem problematic to your son, just quote " life uuuugh finds a way" and he’ll accept you for the dinosaur you think you are. You’re both grown ups and don’t need each other’s opinions on life, but should treat each other with respect.






  • Yeah probably as always only a matter of perspective. Don’t listen to other men, just do what feels right for yourself.

    I took a solid 9 months paternity leave with my son, and I think we just built the best base for a father son relationship I could ever imagine or hope to have. I know they don’t seem like it as a baby, but you are building your foundation already.

    This was 3 years ago and I still feel the outcome of it every day.

    Go for it , be yourself, don’t listen to others.
