How come when someone dies from suicide we can't say they died of suicide and discuss depression and mental health?

People die of depression and we don't talk about it.

RIP Naroditsky

(I have no inside information that it was suicide, it just fits my pattern)

The new Turing test, ask a diverse enough set of question such that only an AI would possibly confidently know the answers (some white males might be assumed to be an AI by this test and that's okay)
you don’t understand bro, if we didn’t lie, no one would buy our product 😩

Has there been any elections or anything important?

Why do I have so many types of soap?

Hand soap, body soap, face soap, dish soap, clothes soap, teeth soap, bathroom soap (to remove other soap), general purpose soap (for cleaning surfaces, why not call it surface soap?).

Why?

So if you don’t like the responsibilities of your job (providing medical care, dispensing misoprostol, prescribing contraception, etc etc), then

FIND A DIFFERENT JOB.

In the early 2000s it was illegal to export a playstation from the US to Iran because the graphics processor was too good at processing missile trajectories.
Every few years Silicon Valley pretends to be detached from the Pentagon, overlooking that the entire commercial computing boom was an offshoot of the missile industry.
When you’re *this close* to figuring out U.S. consumer tech development of the last 100 years isn’t a product of Americans just being very special innovators selling their wares to the public under free market capitalism

The number one way to get more followers on blue sky is to post constantly, but another important thing to remember is that I'm lazy as fuck.

How to watch a youtube video:
1) load up youtube
2) get an annoying pop up saying ad blockers aren't allowed and you can't watch videos
3) refresh quick fixes in ublock origin
4) reload the youtube page
5) you can now watch the video

The results of The Voice referendum summed up in a joke youtube video on "how to speak Australians":

"A recent survey showed that 30% of Australians are casual racists, which means the other 70% are full time"

It's so depressing that the right will state openly that this is how they plan to manipulate the world, and the world just sort of sits there uncritically and gets manipulated.

I think Jords has been suspended on Twitter/X/whatever the fuck they want to call it now, which given what is going on in Palestine right now means I was definitely following the right Jords.

But has she come to bluesky where she won't get suspended for being awesome?
