so that no other party ever has power again.

This idiot already did 4 yrs once and that hasn’t happened.

Had he run the full 8 back to back he would have done a lot more damage than he can do in it broken up. The time it takes to turn over all things will take more time than he has power especially when he might likely be far more distracted with his court case even still.

Never know, maybe it was a blessing there was a break between terms to have all those charges land on him to help keep him distracted from his original course. It was a set back for him non the less.

there are countries out there that face much worse for far longer yet somehow people have survived it for so long.

But many do leave.

Hopefully it doesn’t come to that

I keep reminding myself it’s 4 years and then he can never come back after that again.

The new cars have been coming out with voice commands also so you don’t have to look at the screen while driving. They even have a tactile button for it on the wheel.

The brain might adapt after a while. Our brains really do already fill in a lot that we don’t know about with our field of vision with two eyes.

Just wear swimming goggles

I thought this is why swim goggles exist. Chlorine,salt, any water is hard on the eyes regardless of contact lenses.

[-] Smoogs@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

I’d wear swim goggles regardless in water.

It also exploits another person’s tragedy to make it about themselves taking away from the tragedy to focus on them. It’s narcissistic. And it’s reductive of tragedy. If speaking of third world problems should only be to focus on them. Not to take something from them for yourself.

“You should be grateful”

If it’s about trite platitudes and gratitude, go make a list. Find another way to teach that. When the topic is about someone else’s tragedy, get out of yourself and pay attention to those around you more.

“I have to remember so blessed when I think of someone else’s tragedy”

If you need a boost, Count your blessings against your own gamut of success. No need to compare and push yourself in front of someone else’s gamut all just to feel good about yourself.
