Floridian here. My mom currently has Citizenship Insurance. Her rates will increase by about 11.5% by the end of the year.

What does natural Black/African Ancestry hair look like, is it an afro?

Obviously there are many ways different hair types can be worn, combed, braided, cut, etc., but is natural, untouched Black/African decendent or ancestry hair an afro like in the 70s or was that styling? I imagine if it is natural, it’s normally like any hair cut shorter to make it easier to manage so that’s why one might...

Same. I’ve been struggling with math ever since elementary school. I’ve flunked algebra in middle school and high school. Geometry was even worse for me.

Fellow Floridian here. I appreciate what I’ve learned in school, but it feels like they were preparing us for an ideal world that never existed. Things are especially bleak here in Florida with the affordability crisis, the environmental crisis, and the political crisis.

Fellow Floridian here. I hope we can get someone better after DeSantis’ term limit is up. We live in one of the most climate change prone regions and a region where environmental changes mean a great deal.

Will the world ever stop being anti-intellectual?

One of the most aggravating things to me in this world has to be the absolutely rampant anti-intellectualism that dominates so many conversations and debates, and its influence just seems to be expanding. Do you think there will ever actually be a time when this ends? I'd hope so once people become more educated and cultural...

The general population is more educated now than in the past, but education alone is not what makes one an intellectual, or rather a good intellectual. Having intellectual virtues what makes one a good intellectual, imo. These virtues include intellectual humility, intellectual courage, intellectual curiosity, intellectual honesty, and intellectual responsibility.

I know some hate this term, but class reductionism is a very apt descriptor for their take.

Honestly good. There are plenty of used and pre-owned vehicles that just need minor repairs or tune-ups. I drive a used 2015 Chevy Spark, financed it back in 2022 and it’s nearly paid off. My car only needed a new battery, new tires, and an oil change. My mom on the other hand financed a new luxury Acura RDX back in 2018 as an upgrade from her 2006 Honda CRV, she’s still making payments to this day. I asked why she didn’t get a newer Honda CRV and she said that she didn’t want the same vehicle as a McDonald’s worker.

America's nonreligious are a growing, diverse phenomenon. They really don't like organized religion (apnews.com)

Mike Dulak grew up Catholic in Southern California, but by his teen years, he began skipping Mass and driving straight to the shore to play guitar, watch the waves and enjoy the beauty of the morning. “And it felt more spiritual than any time I set foot in a church,” he recalled....

I’m happy to be a part of that demographic. My upbringing only contributed to my irreligiosity.

LongPigFlavor ,

I remember when a lady tried to scam me into an MLM at a job fair I attended several years ago.

LongPigFlavor ,

Older gen z here, I definitely fall into that category. Many factors have contributed to it.

LongPigFlavor ,

For me it’s mostly related to my autism among other factors.

LongPigFlavor ,

Eggs, bread, cream cheese, vitamins, orange juice, and water.

I live in Florida. I shower once a day in the evenings.

LongPigFlavor ,

Yeah, I work in a warehouse. It’s pretty dusty in there. I don’t want all of the dirt and grime to end up in my bed.

Reddit killing off 3rd party apps. Also Lemmy feels more free as I don’t need a set amount of karma to be able to submit a post or comment. I had a lurker account on Reddit that was verified and everything, but there were times when I wanted to post and when I did only I could see my comment.

LongPigFlavor ,

It didn’t immediately click with me when I joined that ML meant Marxist Leninist even I used to be one.

I drive a 2015 Chevy Spark, the gas version. The ev version was discontinued in 2016, the gas version was discontinued in 2022. The Chevy Sonic, a similar, but slightly larger model was discontinued in 2020. The Chevy Bolt, an ev and larger, but still compact model and a successor to the Spark and Sonic was discontinued this year. It’s become apparent that most Americans do not like small cars.I don’t think much can be done to make small cars likable here, I’d love to be able to drive a car like the Honda E, but there’s no market for it here.

LongPigFlavor ,

I prefer Lemmy, it’s a smaller community and I like the fact that you don’t need karma to make a comment or post. I still lurk Reddit every now and then, but only for information about my interests, I don’t comment or post.

Learned how to properly pirate. I was still streaming and using direct downloads before I learned about torrenting and Qbitorrent.
