Okay “communism is on the same level as nazism” Nicholas 😐 at least I’m not triggered by emails
Oooo thank you !
Thank you!! I also found 2 girls one podcast, it’s a lot of internet culture stuff and they have an episode about Lemmy
Thank you for so many suggestions and taking the time to write up descriptions, really appreciate it 😊
Darknet Diaries is great, I think I got a little turned off by how the host and a guest were talking about camgirls on an episode. Like it was framed as the patrons deserved privacy and protection, but not the sex workers. I haven’t listened to the other one but I’ll give it a try!
I’m still pretty new into looking, this post was inspired by listening to Self-Hosted and one of the hosts has a “news” podcast and one of the more recent episodes was recommending other creators, which were like Megyn Kelly and right wing people :( There were also a few YouTubers that I tried to get into to learn networking but some of them had rant videos about women and stuff. I maybe could have worded it as also like…not corporate-worshipping codebro type podcasts? If that makes sense. There seems to be a lot of libertarian types in computer networking and I just wanted some recommendations by people who have been listening longer than I have.
But did you have access to a computer to teach yourself on? A lot of people don’t.
I think some of it is, not even being “tech illiterate”, but people are just tired and want to do other things. The average person is coming home from work already exhausted, needs to spend time with their partner or kids, take care of the house, etc etc. I don’t blame anyone for not wanting to tinker with setting up servers and learning to make websites and all the other stuff (I’m still learning it too). It’s a lot, especially if you don’t already have a solid foundation. Anything super complex that requires a lot of setup just isn’t accessible for most people. It’s not a lack of ability, but a lack of time and energy.
I do agree about the elitist attitude though. As much as tech people complain about non-tech people, we need them when we eat the food they grew, or they fix our car, or the plumbing in our house. Someone not caring enough to learn new skills because they’re good with the ones they already have is okay and it doesn’t make someone dumb. That’s why they just want to pay someone else to deal with it. I don’t understand how industrial agricultural machinary works but I still eat because there’s people who do. And that’s okay :)
Aw man, sorry you’re going through that. It sounds like you both just really need some space to calm down and process. I also get very snappy/aggro and tend to start fights when I’m anxious. I’ve pushed my partner away during health scares as well (I’m in therapy and always apologize after tho) When I do, it’s never actually about my partner. It’s me feeling anxious, wanting space, feeling guilty about receiving help and wanting to pull away and isolate to deal with my emotions. Don’t take it personally and it’s perfectly normal to snap back at someone when they’re being a bit of an ass. You didn’t do anything wrong. Hopefully your partner just needs some space to calm down.
Also, when you’re both in a good headspace, it may be helpful to ask about why they want their mom to help them instead. He might be subconsciously guilty and not wanting to burden you.
