@lemmy.worldThis mentality smells of "just say no" for drugs or "just don't have sex" for abortions. This is not the ideal world and we have to find actual plans/solutions to deal with the situation. We can't just cover our ears and hope people will stop
That is a hobby. A lovely one, but still a hobby. That is not therapy.
I'm not saying you can't gain insights into yourself or situations while doing that. It can most definitely help and be therapeutic. But therapy it is not
While I do absolutely agree that single issue politics is a real thing like you showed, literally the only reply to your comment was "if you are a single issue voter, you're an idiot".
So I also think OP has a point here and we're talking more about the people who use the term as an ad hominem attack, which I certainly have seen plenty of. And now Lemmy has provided us with yet another example of people taking something legitimate and turning it into a weakness/attackable offence. Like some trolls and racist people on the right now talk about DEI in negative terms
I'm not so sure. That smells a bit of entitlement if I'm being honest. If an unhoused person or a single parent in a food insecure household get food assistance/school meals for example, I'm sure the help meant a lot to them. It doesn't seem like it means anything to you because you have the luxury/security to worry about ethics and other more abstract things. But if you're hungry, food is food. Help is help. And if you were forced to give the food...those people still get to eat at the end of it all
I personally use OSS Document Scanner.
It has different dictionaries, can scan docs/papers and archive them. Can also translate and extract text (to an extent). It works great for my needs, hopefully it is what you were looking for too
They really didn't even try that to be honest. Bethesda has remained far behind and they don't seem interested in changing direction sadly
