I have generalized anxiety disorder and adhd. I wish i could control my anxiety and impulsive thoughts completely

For me, Duolingo plus middle school and highschool spanish has helped me tremendously. It does get repetitive and daunting at points but that’s honestly a good thing as it reinforces and reminds you of certain things you may forget or get wrong.

The gamification of it actually helped me push harder than i would have thought being competitive for the weekly rankings as well as with my ADHD.

Of course I’m still not amazing at spanish but I can hold a very simple conversation, follow along with conversations people are speaking and pick up on context, speak to spanish speakers where they compliment it and say it’s perfect, and I can read it and write it very well.

It could very well just be me and my dedication to it but with a 61 day streak and at minimum of 15 minutes a day while using a journal to write down any and everything I can and practicing Spanish at work, while watching spanish cartoons, I would say Duolingo has been absolutely worth it for me

Specifically the Two Toed Sloth. They’re way cuter than the three toes Sloth and they have nice each independent digit (toe) unlike the three toed sloth. Baby two toed sloths also sound like human babies

Everyone talks about Firefox. And that’s cause Firefox is good and hands down the best. But I’ve been using Vivaldi which is chromium based for years. Anyone have any opinion on Vivaldi?

You got too much sleep

Another big thing is that a lot of people didn’t like how the DNC snubbed Bernie. He was clearly in the lead until I think it was South Carolina? And then Hillary all of a sudden was the pick. Most people I know (and it could be cause I’m Gen Z and what I see due to my community), wanted Bernie and Bernie alone and we’re very pissed

E girls are just an evolved version of this that’s more feminine

It could just be me, but from what I’ve seen of those around me as I’m Gen Z myself, a lot of us ARE aware of local elections and how important they are. We actively do vote in them. It may have a much bigger impact the next go around but we’ll all have to just wait and see

Well experts say that Biden has a good chance of winning if he runs against Trump. In fact, Allen Lichtman has predicted every election correct since 84 except Bush vs Gore. But that was due to Florida fucking with the votes. He himself says Biden has a strong chance of winning if Trump is picked as the Republican forerunner. Which they obviously will pick him.

The problem with 2016 was that Republicans clearly couldn’t take having a black president for 8 years to then go and have a woman be the next president right after that. Then Trump who just said any and everything to appease to then crazies of this country and they came out in droves. As well, Hillary just wasn’t that charismatic in her debates

As someone who never used Sync before, trust me, it will spike like crazy. I don’t know why I never used it before but this an amazing experience. If you’re reading this and trying to find a Lemmy app to use and don’t care about FOSS, get Sync ASAP

I’m not scared of him being in office because I have confidence that he won’t be elected. I know the whole mindset on Reddit and Lemmy is fear of him being back in office but with more young voters who are overwhelmingly left leaning being able to vote, the Republicans shooting themselves in the foot overturning Roe V Wade, and all of the ass backwards policies they’re putting in place, more people aren’t gonna let this happen in 2024. But I understand the fear completely and it is justified

Projection at its finest. If they do it, they must believe the democrats and liberals are doing it because anything that’s bad must be done by their opposition.
