According to the BBC, yeah, John Paul II.
By shifting the metaphor from “Earth as mother” to “Earth as lover” we aim to entice people to develop a more mutual, pleasurable, sustainable, and less destructive relationship with the environment.
While quirky, this is definitively less weird than OP’s disgusting image
ITT: Animal abuse apologia
Kid Rock makes music for people who know what the age of consent laws are for every state in the country.
obre@lemmy.worldto The Trump-Epstein Files™@lemmy.world•The right saying that the left wants to forcibly transition kids was, again, projection.English91·2 months agoI disagree, the elite are right wing. They believe that there should be an in-group, the ultra-wealthy, that society supports but does not restrict. They are capitalists, both in the ideological sense and in the sense that they own capital. The most moderate or them are conservatives who see that they have benefited from the status quo and seek to preserve it. The radicals are fascists, neo-monarchists, theocrats and the like who seek a world order that is even less equal and less fair for the common person than the pseudo-democracy that we have now.
The right more broadly are the many millions of rubes that have bought into the propaganda created by and for these elites. They are those who are primed to believe their lies, because they have fear and anger that overwhelms their critical thinking, limited access to education, culturally embedded and reinforced bigotry, and privileges that they are told depend on the status quo.

Even putting aside my grievances with tankies, this just reads as bad faith bs.

What’s a good term for being both correct and cringe worthy at the same time?
obre@lemmy.worldto Bring Down ICE@lemmy.ca•Immigrant Children Lead Uprising at Texas Detention CenterEnglish2·2 months agoShutting this facility down (again) can only be the start. We need to know the identities of every employee that has worked there as well as any other adult that has spent any significant period of time there. We also need to have social workers and therapists from CPS and independent third parties interview the children to understand the full extent of abuse that they have suffered during their captivity.
That was the original definition of homophobia - heterosexual men’s fear that others might think they are gay. I feel like we have lost something by using it to mean anti-LGBT bigotry very broadly, but it’s a moot point, and I can get on board with using homochondria
I think there’s a fine line between commiseration and enablement and we should be careful not to tacitly reinforce people’s depression. I worry that this sentiment will do more harm than good. There’s a quote from Anthony Bourdain,
“There’s a guy in my head, and all he wants to do is lay in bed all day long, smoke pot, and watch old movies and cartoons. My life is a series of strategems, to avoid, and outwit that guy”,
that I’ve always strongly related to and I think it’s a better message than ‘bedrotting is A-OK’.
