In the US, politicians are rarely in on the schemes themselves, they get money more indirectly from lobbyists, superPACs, or insider trading. Are politicians in the UK not able to profit from their votes?

And now they are only working 4 day weeks due to the oil crisis so you better pick the right day.

It had politics in the title. But yeah it could be argued that it was more meta, idk.

Here is an article. The dude did age: https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity-life/impersonator-jim-carrey-interview-at-french-film-awards-shocks-fans/news-story/a318110b402ce2ec5c4f760707d8dcfc

F-droid builds everything from source so I trust the binaries.

Speaking of which, I donate to f-droid.

So glad it was found early. Take time to heal and care for each other. That sounds really rough.

This is the output of an LLM? I’m just assuming from the username.

I’m not mad, I’m impressed.

I have a day job

There are some good swimming holes to be found… and some wrecked cars and trash.

Strictly speaking this breaks rule 2 and probably rule 1. But I get that it’s meant to be meta so I’ll leave it up to see if people complain.

Ha, you felt this so strongly that you reported it for being “painfully accurate”.

I guess I can’t please everyone.

I would like the community to be a place for respectful discussion so in general that’s how I try to moderate.

This community is my first experience being a mod so I’m sure there are better ways to do it.

Thanks for the update!

No worries, thanks for updating

Rule 2 is that the entire thought must be in the title.

Would you be able to update the title?

I know a few people that are trans or on a similar journey. I never thought any of them had an agenda, they were just living their lives.

One of them came out publicly while I was working closely with them. They sent out an email informing everyone what their new name was, what their preferred pronouns were, and it included an FAQ with some links with more information. It had to be a super scary thing to do but they understood that it’s something new for a lot of people, myself included, and they were happy to talk about questions people had. People were very welcoming. Of course there was some office gossip but it all quickly died down and it never came up again (that I heard). No agenda, just people living.

If a co-worker had continued using the trans person’s old name, yeah I’m sure that would be harassment. Not respecting someone’s wishes for themselves is typically harassment (at a minimum).

Yeah that’s a helpful perspective to hear
