I used to be that way at that age. I used to take delight in smelling fresh coffee grounds in the morning while making my coffee, and telling myself “Enjoy it while you can, because you never know when it’ll be the last time.”
Living like that was stressful. I’m in my late 30’s now. It eventually goes away and you just learn to enjoy the life you’ve got without putting the pressure of “… this goes away at some point,” weighing down on you all the time.
I won’t disagree with any of that. There’s many many things that could have been done better.
That’s not entirely true though. Biden got through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill that invested heavily in developing rural electric and internet. He also supported the USDA ReConnect Program, and several other initiatives. Many of these things that Democrats helped pushed through were celebrated as “wins” by Republican Representatives.
What were they expecting?
Edit". I will say that more investments should have been made in education, but I will always say that we don’t invest enough in education.
yeah, ok.
“Salty salty insults and name calling”
Real astute observations there.
Weeeeelllllllll. I never realized there was much of a “radical left” until Lemmy. I’m a SOLID progressive. I would consider myself a social Democrat. If you are the same then a Marxist Leninist leftist would consider you an enemy. They don’t think their policies could ever be truly enacted through gradual change and that a violent revolution is essentially required.
I’m not a centrist, but ML leftists scare the shit out of me. Meeting them on Lemmy is when I discovered that I’m not actually a “leftist” and it made me do quite a bit of soul searching on what these political terms actually mean.
