  I don't think you can or that it's even wise. I think therapy can help you mitigate consequences, and if you value these people in any way, you will make every effort of going to a therapist, being honest, and participating to make the situation more tolerable for yourself and potentially others.

  I meant in addition to online applications.

  With fake job posts and AI resumé scanning, showing up can't hurt.

  That's not what I'm referencing at all. can you possibly try to imagine their living conditions? For centuries?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  at least in America

  Oh boy. Try to imagine how people living in nations the USA and Canada exploit part of the world may be feeling right now.

  Somewhere on your instance page, usually at the bottom, you can click "instances" and see which are federated and not.

  With the right organic produce, that won't be necessary. 😅

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is an industrial product that, if you could purchase as an investment, you know you could find **local** customers ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Organic produce. High-fat soap.

  It's because we refuse to look in the mirror and deal with our collective crap. Broken people are more exploitable, whole people are a bigger "start up" costs, with unfathomable ROI. But also more trouble for wealth hoarders, and we can't have that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pubs could stay open until early hours in move to boost UK growth⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Schism is highly valuable to societies organized on eternal growth, and the failure of keeping the masses divorced from understanding profit, abundance, and value as more than actual money is highly profitable to those societies. Although in indirect ways, these things are indeed monitarily profitable.

  Something about the cost of everything and value of nothing.

  Exactly. But people have the idea that Jesus was against money. He wasn't, in fact he lived off money given to him by "women of means," and spoke about how one should give. He was against greed and using G*d like these charlatans. He didn't tell regular people to give it all up, just greedy people, because they worshipped money, which is idolatry, adultery against the their marriage covenant to the father. And that's the issue.

  Note Jesus didn't disdain giving alms, but said the poor widow gave more than rich men, who also flaunted giving. Women and orphans were the beneficiaries of these funds as well, I am guessing, as temple upkeep and scribes, priests maybe, etc.

  He was enraged at the selling of animals for sacrifice. I can't imagine it was for usurious rates.

  You'd have to further research it on sites that specifically address Jewish law, preferably from Aramaic and Jewish translations. I have fur babies hindering me rn

  This is extremely xenophobic.

  When a neighbor was in the hospital for a week, their small church took $200 from their funds to help them buy groceries.

  Feeding the prison industrial complex

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Phones may come without bundled USB cables in the future, if OEMs have their way⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  But wouldn't it be equally valid to frame it the other way around that so far we have paid for them to be included, whether we like it or not?

  But then you have it. Sell it, put it in another room, give it away. They should lower the phone price by the amount of whatever they charge for the charger. They should also give buyers the option to have it included or not, especially in this economy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Phones may come without bundled USB cables in the future, if OEMs have their way⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That said, one thing that OEMs never say out publicly is that they are also saving a ton of money by retaining their device's price tag and still ditching accessories in the process.

  I guessed so.
