CBT can be harmful in many cases, including to many neurodivergent people. Just often worth being cautious and looking into alternatives.
I mean, backing their heyday, word processors were considered a pretty solid upgrade over an electronic typewriter, with a price tag to reflect that.
This seems more similar to word processors prior to PCs taking over that functionality.
They’ve begun to enshittify their reviews. Used to be almost no meme reviews, now they’re everywhere because people can get awards for them. And they of course the ability give awards require you spend money on Steam.
I used to trust “overwhelmingly positive” on games I was considering. Now I don’t. I still read some steam reviews but also reviews across the web, too.

Nothing can do James Balwin’s words justice except his writing and recordings. Every time I think, “oh I’m probably not in the mood for something like that,” he captures me again. What a brilliant person.

This is a misunderstanding of the UN’s primary purpose. The UN is a diplomatic organization meant to enable a baseline minimum amount of diplomatic interaction. It’s primary raison d’etre is preventing a world war / nuclear war. If military might was not respected, then nations would leave the negotiating table and large wars would be harder to avoid. The veto was instrumental in establishing the UN in the first place.

It’s obviously very personal, YMMV, but there are good alternatives in many cases.
