  • If Americans had access to Chinese EVs and had more affordable EV options it would be better. Their range is great now days. They can get up to 350 range depending on the car now. Comparible to gas cars. I think local governments should install charging stations as well to recieve some of the profits and to keep it affordable / voted on instead of it all being privatized again as we KNOW ALL COMPANIES EVENTUALLY JACK UP COST no matter what the product. America never learns.











  • Taking breaks away from technology. Camping? When you are able to - sit with your thoughts and accept them instead of fighting against them. The more we avoid and deny ourselves the ability to feel we end up oppressing and disassociating. You are worthy of love and you are allowed to feel anger and sadness as well. It’s normal. Especially lately. Humans have gone through collective trauma for years now, not even counting COVID, and that was a huge one too. It’s normal to feel like shit sometimes. Lean on the local community more than ever before. View your local community as a tribe, it helps after natural disasters. There is collective healing that needs to be done.

    Also, this breathing technique daily for a few weeks even outside of stressful situations: “Box breathing is a deep breathing technique that involves inhaling, holding the breath, exhaling, and holding again, each for a count of four seconds. It helps reduce stress, improve focus, and calm the nervous system, making it useful in high-pressure situations.”



  • I am a millennial mom to a gen Z teenager and have noticed this as well actually. I wasn’t sure if it was just that my kids friends are weird or what lol. I said hello and they stare with a small “hey” or don’t say anything back while avoiding eye contact?? Lol… Like I am your friends mom? You should probably at least take a “hello”???

    Edit: Now that I am reading these comments as a therapist it actually sounds like trauma? The zoning out and being lost in thought happens with chronic trauma victims. It sounds like disassociating from growing up with COVID and other systemically traumatic environments during crucial development periods. Sad


  • Men being triggered by this is so cringe. Ew.

    The sad reality is that women have to worry about being attacked… Not all men are creepy but men need to also hold the shitty men accountable too. The “would you rather be in the woods with a bear or a random man” question broke the internet because it was a strong argument and made a lot of men think about who even they feel comfortable with if alone in the woods… Most men said the bear, too… Idk many men who are deathly afraid of women and this isnt me saying that men havent been raped, abused, attacked. No human should have to experience ANY intimate violence. The risks are just less statistically. Its not weird to try and mitigate violence on any app…
