@waweic @urusan Nah, not a Mandela effect. Considering in that article is the following: "This is an edited extract from Survival of the Richest by Douglas Rushkoff", and that's from 2019, it's perfectly possible we've read excerpts from it before.
I've read that story before, so it's not new news to me. Still sickening, yes. I can seriously recommend reading the book I've mentioned earlier. Humanity, at its core, is good. But that isn't very newsworthy for some reason, so you only see the shit stories online or in the news.
@barefootstache I'm all for unisex activities/clothing/culture.
@Pat That's not quite what was said though.

@urusan Funny. Even though it's recently published, I've actually read this exact story before a year or so ago.
The rich are terribly out of touch. People project their mindset on what they think is going to happen. It never quite matches reality.
Humankind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman is a pretty good read about how much the 'upper echelons' miscalculate human reactions.
@netkitty Can I play games on you? What part of you do I press?
I'm loving the Dataview plugin more and more in Obsidian, it's a whole own SQL-ish database but made up of markdown files.
This flexibility is insane.
And I've not even delved in DataviewJS yet.

@lucifargundam I'm glad we're approaching autumn. Temperatures are starting to be lower again. The 30+C we had the past few days were not fun!
@lydiaconwell Humanity in a nutshell.
@knuppelbeer Hou ze gevangen. We hebben genoeg hete dagen gehad!
@lydiaconwell Our energy prices are up crazy too. It impact for -me- is thankfully low because I have solar panels and only really have to pay for the gas prices which I try to minimize the use of as well. But we do have households getting in trouble.
Though I just read an article this morning that it's much worse in the UK. Worst of Europe. This first past the post system is doing the British people in I think.
@lydiaconwell Eh, it's not just Britain who's facing the rising cost of living. It's the whole world atm.
@sean Aww, congratulations!
@ambulocetus That cat has every right to look upset.
@fraggle I love the Orville. It fills the empty gap after DS9.
@janwillemswane Maar zelfs dan kan er toch wel ander levend begroeiing daar komen? Gras, struiken, bloemperken?
@mc Because that doesn't really make sense to me.
@mc In this sorta context style my immediate thought is 'Pb=Pb'.
@xhx Someone is feeling very emojional today!

@boobs_idiot That's a nice nasty card.
@StroomAfwaarts @Bosbesje@mastodon.nl Lemme rephrase:
Wat als je een groene banaan ziet?
Main account is now on @trinsec
I've resigned as moderator on Qoto.org since 29-aug-2023.
This one is now a backup account, my activities on Qoto will be low.

Used to be on another mastodon server regularly, but it's been inaccessible since November 2020. So I've decided to join Qoto instead! I like the features this server has to offer.
