Maybe in the US. Where I live basically all retail ends between 5-7pm.

Nah forcing workers to survive mimum wage is hard enough. Don’t force them to work at the middle of the night.

Have a “petrol station/corner shop” open for emergencies.

Yep. Watch out it may turn soft on Russia abd its cronies.

Thanks for this. I never noticed I had a 3 week old report open on a LW community I modded because it never federated with my instance.

I’m willing to defend my home if the people ruling it are worth defending.

As a Swiss person I gotta say the story is more complicated and nuanced, but yeah the right leaning coalition that has lead the country for the past couple decades does not favour recognising Palestianian Statehood “at this state in time”. Although one of the major four parties who makes up the coalition does (the second largest party in the country).

World war isn’t about how many countries are involved, but the scale of the conflict.

I got a COVID infection a while ago that permanently disabled me pretty bad. Bedridden, unable to move much, etc.

The thing that really helped me was relaxing and listening to music. That’s what I spent my days doing as I couldn’t do much else. I became a real music nerd and just loved the bliss of hearing music.

A little later (two years). I got another COVID infection — I was taking very strong precautions, and couldn’t see anyone. It turns out I got it from my doctor. Anyways, this infection caused some brain damage which has caused me to mostly loose the ability to hear. And now I’m still mostly motionless alone in bed, but I haven’t even got the comfort of sound or music. Just a mostly silent (tinnitus filled) world.

I’m so scared of getting covid again. But mostly I miss the world and my old life. Being stuck alone in bed with only the internet for company sucks. People tend to be arseholes online. I can’t help but feel I got “natural selectioned”. Me and my wife were planning on having kids soon. Now I barely see her and I’m going to slowly die in a nursing home. There are specific genetic vulnerabilities to illnesses, and natural selection works with them (see what Europeans coming to America did). And I got fucked here. COVID was my end.
