They have their own ads that you are forced to see, but if you don’t mind the routine of exiting out or buying the subscription it’s fine. We put a generic baby name, a fake birthday, used a spam email etc. and we never bought any of the stuff they were trying to sell. I recommend trying it because it was pretty user friendly and you could modify the tasks very easily.

I would also check out contraction timers or something for you to track them. It was super nice to have when riding to the hospital and before getting hooked up to all the monitors.

And hey! Congrats to the future parents!

It might not be you, but it will be children having children with abortion bans and lack of sex education.

But they can bring back debtors prisons. Not that long ago the USA had them

You sincerely think those were real attempts?

I could be wrong, but I believe most AI isn’t really AI as we imagine it. It’s a LLM (language learning model). The more you interact with it the better it gets

That is absolutely next. Watch who the news stirs up controversy against and they will be the next target. Venezuelans are a good example of this because there were several news campaigns to tarnish them last year that are fueling the hate now.

100% trust your gut. It’s not a good idea.

Give it a listen the whole album still hits!

Even if everything he says is true he needs to learn to treat people better and not at the expense of your time and feelings. Leave him behind, work on yourself however feels right to you and you will very likely barely remember his name a decade from now. Don’t EVER settle for that sort of treatment.

What a great example!

I urge you to see beyond that. Of course there are people (influencers likely?) you’re thinking about that jump on band wagons, but every movement does and they play an important part even if you don’t like them. Free advertising!

Remember there are bots even on Lemmy to push the narrative that we have no power. Billionaires aren’t scared of a couple less dollars, but they are TERRIFIED of us figuring out we can organize. Let’s not fight each other let’s fight the oligarchy!

Billionaires aren’t scared of losing a few dollars but they are terrified of people organizing. Look how fast they got rid of tiktok!

There is a list of known kellogs products if you go down the menu 👍

It’s a tiered strategy and works with the idea that a lot of people haven’t ever tried boycotts. Once they see they’re part of something the movement grows stronger. Empower people don’t comply in advance.

For me I am already permanently boycotting all of these you mentioned. For others it is not that easy and takes TIME and EFFORT. Support or don’t but why be against good change even if it’s little bits at a time? Do you not want to see people try or join? This is the beginning point not the end.

What point you are missing is that these corporations are still scared we will organize. Look at how tiktok affected people’s views on Gaza. You saw how fast they took control of an app as opposed to the countless problems they could actually be fixing. Getting people used to a different way of life takes time and small acts/habits.
