It's European Day of Jewish Culture!

The annual event was initiated in 1996 by the B'nai Brith of Strasbourg in the French département Bas-Rhin together with the local Agency for development of tourism. It now involves twenty-seven European countries including Turkey and Ukraine.

It's International Day of the Disappeared
This is very sad.
The International Day of the Disappeared, on August 30 of each year, is a day created to draw attention to the fate of individuals imprisoned at places and under poor conditions unknown to their relatives and/or legal representatives.
Looking at you, too United States ...

There are millions of people without clean water and I am wasting ressources by chatting with/posting to some people over the internet.
And before I can reflect to much over that I rather look for something to get angry over.

@freemo @MominRasool
Interesting that you answer that point and not the other, which by the way was exactly my point.

@freemo @MominRasool In 99% they don't help at all. You only can become rich if you exploit others.

@freemo @MominRasool
Survivor bias. They usually were just lucky. Or more persistant than others and then say it was their skill and that is usually not the only reason.

@MominRasool
It's all fine until a rich guy says "but you should do -this- to become rich!" then I lose it. :D

@Surasanji @freemo
The problem is, I have usually the choice between being angry or sad and I rather find something to be angry about than being sad.

@MominRasool
I just got an ad for a cashmere pullover and the price is higher than my car is worth. I have 70 cents in the bank account.
Life doesn't seem fair sometimes. Usually.

@trinsec I don't have the federated timeline on :P

I like Europa Universalis and an add on is coming out next week :3

Okay, is had been a week on mastodon for me, round about, and I think the problem is not social medial or twitter it's just that I really don't like people very much.

@freemo
I just can't let lies or untruths just slide. They get repeated too often already.

I am just going to mute/block everyone who excuses harassment in any form.
There are definitely some edgelords on mastodon as well.
