Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What valuable resources are out there for men to learn about themselves?English
8·24 days agoHowever, on the social side, (brains, emotions, support networks, etc) it’s usually a bad sign when the source says anything is exclusive to men
This feels like a dangerous take.
I just yesterday participated in a group for men, because we make up 3% of my industry and suffer a lot of discrimination.
Likewise there are men’s sheds all around my country for men to get together, it’s hugely important for giving them a space to connect and story tell. They’ve led to decreases in suicide rates for older men.
To generalise men’s support networks as bad because you’re probably only thinking of the manosphere hurts the rest of us. And it is sexist, however minor it may seem.
I know right? 67 🫴🫴
Isn’t it 23 hours and 50 minutes to get home?

17·2 months agoAlso for people without foreskin who are having a chld, do not retract it back on your child. It’s not ready to pull back for many many years and you will most likely rip their skin.
There is only one human race —Homosapiensapiens.
Jewish is both an ethnicity (what people think of as race) and a religion.

Where I’m at so far with a theme. Gotta finish up the top bar with community subscriptions and tidy up the user part on the left before moving onto the feed.

1·4 months agoAs in old.reddit or the old “new” reddit they apparently changed a week ago.
I’ve been messing around with customising themes all week on https://quokka.au/, and I would be happy to give it a shot.

This is a great feature to have, as I was reliant on newcommunities and communitypromo to find new comms.
Watched it as a kid and have fond but vague memories of it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If the rubbish/trash/garbage collector misses your bin, can you request them to pick it up again? And how do they know it wasn't you forgetting to put the bins out?English

No, for all of us.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Most people's earliest memories are at around 3 or 4 years of age, which correlates with the age kids start asking "why" for everything. Kids start asking why when they become self-aware.English
21·5 months agoI work with babies under 1, even they can point to pictures to “ask” me to name them. Knowing others know stuff is basic.
Theory of Mind isnt something we use in my field, but from a quick glance it’s knowing other people have minds, that they have their own desires, feelings, thoughts, etc not that they know information.
In ECEC terms we would think of that as the end of their egocentric stage. Usually seen around 1-3.

12·6 months agoWhat is “childcare”? Because I’m working on my hands and knees half the time or holding up to ~15kg for hours a day.
YES! I started making it after watching foodwishes cook it and it is the best Italian pasta dish I’ve ever had in my life. The pan cooking of the pasta gives it such a crispy texture.









I fully understand how you’re feeling, but we don’t need to go around throwing slurs about other marginalised groups to describe these terrible people.
