Although Lemmy's userbase is quite large,it still is small enough that I do often see the same people in comment sections. It feels though, that I should recognise more names, because I can only remember around 5 individual ones.

I think you might be great to do a podcast. You could explore the pressing issues society faces. The long lasting issues that society has faced for generations. Healthcare, religion, education, senior care abuse by nursing homes, inappropriate actions of priests with little boys, the shrinking availability for citizens not corporations to buy houses, parenting styles evolving over time. I could go on, but you get the idea.

First you start the show, and discuss the topic in a more rational logic and fact based side, and then rediscuss everything from your more sensitive, vunerable, emotional side.

The whole hook of the show could revolve around the duality of mankind, and how every issue has different ways to look at it. Different sides, ya' know? And even though all of it is your opinion, your different sides may often differ, and clash.

It would need a website though. How about www.Jennas-Side.com

:D

I already have both, a website and a podcast. In this episode https://jeena.net/pods/18 for example I talk with a ex Jehovas Vittnesses about how religion destroyed her life, very emotional episode.

Or in this one https://jeena.net/pods/21 I went to Palestine to speak to a Palestinian family which house has been bulldozed by the IDF 3 times already.

Can't tell if the joke went right by you without notice, or if you're just not a fan of dark wordplay.

Definatelly the first one. I realized that the comment is somehow very on point with the topics, I even showed it to my spouse and she was also confused. But I didn't realize it was a joke. I guess I need to read it a couple of times.

For those who don't get the joke, it's a play at the concept of the "both sides" argument of political and international relations, and the website is a pun on genocide. The joke being that by pretending to see everything through an objective lens, you're allowing the aggressors to commit genocide.

OK, I really didn't get the joke so I had to ask ChatGTP and it explained the joke to me. Not bad, and unexpected.
