I only found out today. It’s a pretty recent change. Romania is possibly the most referred country to the EHCR, so not a great track record there.

In Romania the age is now 16 https://cne.news/article/3356-romania-tightens-law-on-sexual-consent

Maybe make another post to do that? You can ask all kinds of things that way to satiate your curiosity.

It is vulgar to bring whataboutery into a discussion about child rape.

You’re right. I’ll remove this and come back with the more credible 2025 study.

Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir will unveil a plan on Thursday to “encourage voluntary emigration from Gaza”, making it a central plank of his election campaign and a key demand for joining any future coalition.

Reduce water supply by 94%, poison and burn their farmlands, rile up Israelis to steal their land and homes under the protection of police and military. Nothing voluntary about this.

Answer what? Your nonsense reply ignores international law, not to mention decency.

See my previous answer https://lemmy.world/post/51412614/25621166

Why would EU get involved in Middle East.

We are involved - up to the hilt. I’m trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, but are you really making comments like this in good faith?

By not colluding. By following international law. By not gifting lucrative trade deals and contract to genocidal thugs. By not granting special observer status within the EU to a mass-murdering nation. By not trading with settler-colonial ethnostates. By not wishing “happy international friendship day” to Israel on official EU social media accounts. By doing what semi-decent countries, such as South Africa do when there is a bloodbath.

The human reaction to such atrocities - the holocaust of our time - is not: “how do I get in on this”.

and things there are relatively calm for almost a year now

Utterly false.

Are there any bright minds interested in stopping genocide, or is it a lack of bright hearts?

Bad-faith comment👎🏽

Thanks! Gonna watch it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penguin_Town

Sánchez has made most of our nations leaders look very cowardly. One of the very few I admire.

If that’s a real photo, I have to know more about it!

Not completely surprising. Their food doesn’t decay either https://www.good.is/iceland-live-streams-a-mc-donalds-cheeseburger-from-2009-and-it-still-looks-the-same/

It would make a great tag for such posts, if tags existed.

My door handle is probably antiemetic if we go by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism.

There is research that vouches that the quality of the relationship (or rapport) is more important than modality with respect to outcomes. Your instincts sound good.

And yes, trying to do this ourself is like trying to put up a tent by oneself in my experience. We usually need a “spotter” at the very least.

Best of luck.

It’s good to have that awareness. Fear of abandonment doesn’t just moderate how we connect with people, it moderates how we feel about connection, during connection, etc.

I’m not the biggest fan of CBT - I think it can be used in a way that’s too clinical rather than felt - but wading into the beliefs you have about abandonment and self-worth can be very valuable. We can’t confront something until we shine a light on it.

Once the beliefs and feelings are labeled to some extent, the next step with CBT could be to identify the cognitive ( C ) distortions in those beliefs and then explore what a more balanced substitute could look like. Then by examining the behavioural (B) influence those beliefs had on you, you can try out new behaviours too. That kind of therapy (T) can help flush emotional states that have been stuck for some time.

But the mechanics of CBT aren’t enough. A well attuned therapist is what makes it more than the sum of its parts.
