I've been looking into Payload CMS. It's FOSS for the non Enterprise features I believe.

Abused his power?

Yes, I would say that pardoning your own son as president is a conflict of interest, unethical, and an abuse of power. It demonstrates that Hunter is above the laws that Joe Biden helped architect. I'm surprised that this sentiment is so controversial.

I'm specifically talking about the silly framing of "a child" rather than "his child"

I think pardoning a child for a dumb drug offence is fine. 🤷‍♂️

His son is hardly a child at 54 years old. Biden is also responsible for thousands of people behind bars because of "a dumb drug offense".

I don't think that Trump should be the bar for morality and ethics in this country. It's lazy to bring him into this conversation.

The person you're replying to never even refuted the claim about China. Many people don't know about the 13th amendment, so it's actually relevant to the conversation. Your weirdly hostile reply isn't relevant because it's reductive and misplaced. If you truly cared about forced labor, you wouldn't be trying to squash conversation about it.

Ah yeah, I was going for instantly recognizable

Yeah Alex Jones can rot in hell

Unfortunately, I would guess that school shooter locations are probably the most easily recognised in the US. Uvalde has a population of ~15,000, for instance.

I understand how frustrating that must be. It sucks to have people tell you all of your life that you can't do certain things because of your intelligence and then have someone tell you it's "not real".

I think most people who say this (including the person you're replying to) are trying to reassure you, not dismiss you. The origins of IQ are arguably racist/classist and the science behind it is disputed by many. I was told all my life that i had an above average IQ, but i never understood why. I didn't feel smarter than my classmates and I did poorly in school. I later learned that I did well on the IQ test because of my economic background and the resources that I had available to me from a young age.

Intelligence is such a broad concept that we frankly don't fully understand yet. So the fact that we measure peoples intelligence and worth over a number is bullshit and dystopian. This is where the split in your experience comes from. You feel the effects of a low IQ because society values it too much. But most people know it's a metric that's used as a cudgel against others.

In other words, I very much believe that you are treated differently and have fewer opportunities as a result of your IQ, but that's an indictment of our society; not you. On top of it all, it sounds like you didn't have the support network that other people have. Verbal and physical abuse from the people who should be our guardians and champions (your father) will stomp the spirit out of anyone.

I know it might not be comforting, but I read your post and you didn't seem unintelligent to me. Sure, your sentence structure might be different than mine, but you seem like a thoughtful and connected person. What I'm missing, most likely, is the effort, time and energy that it may have taken you to write your original post, which i dont want to discount. But you're able to get your thoughts and feelings across just fine, at least in the form of writing.

Alright, enough with the pep-talk. Do you have any interests or things you like to spend time with? Video games? Animals? Exercise? Drawing? Writing? Makeup? Anime? Cooking? It doesn't matter if you think you're bad at them -- I'd recommend pursuing those interests. Sometimes volunteer work opens up opportunities that you haven't considered. It can also help you create that social safety net that I was talking about earlier.

I would try to get a job that gets you by (I know, easier said than done). Something like janitor work, fast food, retail, or hotel service. It doesn't have to be permanent, but just something to keep a cashflow while you give yourself time and room to grow. I'm not sure where your located, but I would check for non-profits or local orgs that offer assistance to folks.

Don't let our psychotic and unhealthy society dictate your worth. You are a human being who has thoughts and feelings. Your ability to hold a job or quuckly solve a problem is relatively superficial.

The person you're replying to was just making a comment that alludes to the fact that people who like this genre get addicted to other games. It was a light-hearted comment and you're the one who got negative first. People asked you to elaborate on your negativity and you got defensive. Now you're doubling down on that defensiveness. I get it. I've been there. But come on, man. I think everyone's got the same interests in mind here.

Kinda surprised that no one has mentioned sign language. I feel that it's use cases expand outside the original intent, especially if other people in your circle understand it.

Definitely feel ya there. I highly recommend Obsidian or Joplin. Not sure what features you're looking for, but I've found Obsidian refreshingly simple. Aso nice knowing that it's just markdown files on my device that can't be sold as data.
