This interaction is a certified Lemmy moment

Update, strait still not closed. Nothing ever happens yet again

TTC is a tranquil zen garden compared to the average NYC subway car

Actively defending a murderer doesn’t make one a murderer

No one talks like this

Do you live in Luxembourg? Most places have fares for public transport

Recognize that your situation is not like most people. Old apartment buildings especially will not be keen to run fibre everywhere when coax can handle gigabit speeds just fine

I think the wave in this post is referring to the midterms

Would you make this same argument for pro-western propaganda?

Elections are always about the best choice from the options available. NDP were always going to get crushed, so this was the best possible outcome.

People need to stop seeing voting as an agreement with or support for everything a candidate does.

Rational national is like fox news clickbait but for NDP voters

Gun violence in Canada is near exclusively committed with illegal firearms brought up from the states. The limits on long guns for people with PALs does nothing to curb the violence.

Also, lots of specific model gun prohibitions are literally based on how scary a gun looks and not anything to do with things like barrel length or caliber. The FN FAL was recently prohibited because you can fix a bayonet, like all those pesky criminals are doing these days…

The Houthis agreed to stop attacking merchant ships, which was the whole reason they were being bombed in the first place. If they start again they can probably expect the air strikes to resume.

Your English is great! Not perfect, but good enough to get the idea across, which is what matters in language. Don’t apologise for that :)

I know this is hard and scary in the moment, but it’s not like you can control anything about their reaction. Older people tend to be a bit more set in their ideas, but if your grandparents really love you they should love you for who you are.

If they can’t see that, then that’s no big problem for you. The only thing worse than a negative relationship is maintaining a positive one by hiding your true self. If they choose to be nasty and mean, you can try to have a calm conversation with them to show that you’re still the same person they’ve always known. The most important part is time, don’t give up on them if it feels hopeless and don’t listen to anyone who tells you to cut off contact completely after the first bad interaction.

How old are you turning? Approximately of course
