This is exactly why they celebrate it as well. The pointless sacrifice at the other end of the world made them realize they weren’t British any more. It’s usually considered as a beginning of separate Australian and NZ national identity (political independence took some decades more)

Very meta - An emotionally charged rant about emotionally charged opinions
Go to your manager first. You need all the allies you can get. Especially if your manager is a good person who wants to support you, they need some time to prepare mentally to push against HR.
Plus typically line managers don’t set the budget, so making a team member permanent will be in their own interest, unlike HR who might be instructed to keep the cost down.
Best thing that happened recently. Wonderful wonderful chaos, when the best plans of authoritarian politicians go awry. And I mean both Chinese and American politicians.
May I suggest a compromise. Apparently that town of 50k has most of the things you miss.
You don’t have to move to a huge city (1+ million). Moving to a small city would still let you keep some of the peace, and likely you could also have a house with a yard although in a denser environment.
I have 2 kinda conflicting opinions about the whole thing
The last AC game I’ve played is Brotherhood so it might all perfectly fit into the current AC universe idk.
I also think I’ve never seen legible text in a dream. This “i know it’s text but can’t really read it” sounds a lot like the issues AI image generators have.
The rise of AI made me rethink many things about consciousness. It seem like our internal image generators and text generators are separate from “us” as in the “core personality”.
I’ve long wondered what makes people listen to jazz. Now we know
Well cultural habits are slow to change. I suspect it would take some 20 years to change the dynamics such than women are always expected to make the first move.
Bumble was well positioned to push for that change, unfortunately earning revenue has a priority, they are are a business after all. Still their gimmick got the ball rolling, we’ll see who picks it up next.
Is this even news any more? Elect a senile old man and he’ll make errors.
Americans voted for 4 more years of that, nottheonion is going to get a lot more material.
Not even peer review, the problem doesn’t go far enough to reach the level of checking the scientific methodology. Did nobody even read the article before publishing? They don’t have editors in the journal this was published in?
The only way to fight small cars is with COVEEENT INHIBTORS
This sounds amazing. How does one go about being reborn in the dawn?
Maybe but governments are slow to react. There will be a couple of months of relative freedom. Then we’ll have to find new apps again.
The floodgates between Chinese and Western meme cultures are now open. It will be glorious.

Religion is useful for one thing and one thing only - as a barrier to depression. Having a predefined higher purpose neutralizes the existential dread, it helps you function in the face of a meaningless life.
Unfortunately it’s all false. Once you understand the the falsehood it doesn’t help any more. Which is why so many religious people cling to their religion. Giving up on whatever belief kept them alive equals suicide, and they want to keep on living.
