Showing 2.9 also for me in the UK.
I work in the finance industry and it’s similar. We have to be certain we’re talking to the right person as fraud is rampant. This is ridiculous.
I agree in principle, but that’s not what’s happening in the real world.
My husband has ME/CFS. It’s a life-destroying disease, even though it doesn’t usually kill you. There’s no treatment, no cure, and no idea about the underlying cause, after many decades of research.
It’s heartbreaking to read messages from people who caught it as a teen, seen all their schoolfriend grow up, experience life, find love etc, all while the sufferer is in pain all day, no hope of improving, relying heavily on what family they have who are willing to support.
This is by no means ideal, but neither is decades of suffering. I err on the side of reducing the constant pain.
Plus people commuting less = less pollution and less congestion.
Good for people, good for the planet, bad for profit for some.
As the parent to a 5 year old, I feel this sooooo much.
I’m having to change my “just-a-second”, as she takes it literally - a second is counted. I now say just-a-minute. Frozen got it bang on when Anna says "just give us a minute " and you can hear Olaf quietly start counting to 60.
The idea behind calling it CSAM is that “porn” has become synonymous with something desirable - foodporn, earthporn as examples.
Child porn needs to keep it’s status as abhorrent, however the term is changing its nature (as language can).
This is it.
I’ve had an awful experience recently with an ex-friend, caught having an “affair” with his 16yr old employee. He’s mid 40s. Turns out, the only illegal part is that there’s pictures. He can fuck girls still at school legally, but he can’t send her or request any pictures. It’s insane.
Another layer is that the age of consent rises 18, but ONLY if you’re in a school, healthcare, care-taking, Religion or sports club setting. According to the law, being her Boss doesn’t mean he’s in a Position of Trust or a Position of Authority over her. Yet, he plainly is.
Luxembourg has a gay Prime Minister. While not Head of State because Lux still has a King, he is rather up there in terms of practicality.
Progress, but 66% is still happening. Let’s hope he manages to stop it completely
Awww! Love their names!
I used to have 2 ferret boys, absolutely crazy adorable guys. Miss their antics and their endless energy.
I’m on kbin, really hoping that the new Sync will work here. However, given the way Lemmy works, I believe that it won’t really matter as its just another instance in the Federation
Ask me a month ago and it would’ve been Reddit Sync.
Now - WhatsApp, kbin, YouTube
Those poor girls. Did absolutely nothing wrong, now they’re not even able to get comfort from their families and friends. Their lives destroyed for years to come. And I fear some may end up pregnant, to add to their trauma.
My kids school sent home a leaflet for it this week. We were considering the subscription as she loves to learn. This has really made us rethink it, sadly.
Female here. Can touch ass but not all the way through to get a good wipe of both areas.
I’m trying to rebuild my sources after losing the useful ones on Reddit. Which ones in Lemmy/Kbin can you recommend?
Oooh, that’s fascinating

Thanks! Tried the Google reverse image search to no joy.
