It’s more like walking into Google the day after your high school graduation and asking to be the CEO. I’m sure he could have been published if he tried to publish something people wanted to read. there’s barely an audience for the memoirs of real people that isn’t just money laundering. Literally no one would buy it if they published it

No you didn’t. People don’t buy the memoirs of random people. The publisher can move heaven and Earth but people still wouldn’t change the fact that the audience will never exist

BoulevardBlvd@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Social media sites should have 'reverse' Parental Controls; where adult children can block their boomer/senior parents' accounts from viewing conspiracy and radicalizing content.1·2 months agoUnfortunately I think that’s just our parents and not all old people. My parents are the same way, but it seems to me more that maturing is a choice and active process that requires effort, and many people are unwilling to put in the work and vigilance required and it leads to the above
I don’t think they’re children, I think they’re selfish lazy assholes, but the result that they need to be treated like children is the same
BoulevardBlvd@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto News@lemmy.world•Michigan's Democratic AG Under Fire After Armed Agents Raid Homes of Palestine Defenders3·2 months agoDemocrats are a party. They accept collective responsibility by joining in coalition. Also, it wasn’t just one democrat. Stuff like this crosses dozens of desks and they all were Democrats. And this is a consistent thing that they always do
It isn’t misinformation to call Democrats fascist collaborators. That’s exactly what they are
BoulevardBlvd@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto News@lemmy.world•Michigan's Democratic AG Under Fire After Armed Agents Raid Homes of Palestine Defenders3·2 months agoYou did know they run law enforcement in Ann Arbor though. You absolutely knew that and decided to gloss over the Democrats’ blatant capitulation and abetment of the FBI’s crimes. This was a local law enforcement raid with a few FBI agents attending. The Democrats control those cops and without their explicit go ahead, none of this happens. They’re fascist collaborators and they deserve to be demonized for it and more

Also, fuck em. Hydrogen still produces water vapor which is only barely better for the environment than the carbon dioxide from gasoline emissions. Hydrogen cars are a stupid idea when evs are right there

What’s trump gonna do? Stop sucking his dick and build his own camps in the US? That won’t fly for at minimum several months yet l, even with his bloodthirsty base and he knows it. The US is a global paria at this point. There’s no one else trump could get to take them. To misquote a spudbrained dipshit “trump doesn’t have the cards”. If he wants to do something with the prisoners once he has them, trump can’t afford to object
BoulevardBlvd@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto GayBros@lemmy.world•As a Gay that is questioning their spirituality, I'd like some guidance (but please don't be judgmental)3·2 months agoRight, but what does support and guidance mean? That’s too vague to be useful. We don’t even know what religion you think you might be. You haven’t said.
If it’s in your other post you mention (I’m about to go check) then for the future, the polite thing to do would be to link to that context in the initial post
But from what you’ve written here, you’re not going to get anything useful.
So, let’s start with what does “I don’t know if I ever was truly an atheist” mean to you? (Its a big, complicated question I’m sure. Take the time and page space to be specific)
(This is genuine. I’d be happy to talk about it, I just don’t have enough info to be helpful)
