Fwiw I intended this post in good humor. Somehow I did not appreciate how much of a powder keg this issue seems to have (apparently) blown up into becoming.
Humor, especially self-aware, is intrinsically tied to the concept of meme. Sometimes we forget that.
I haven’t generalized anything beyond the extents of
I have not said it’s impossible to do for me and have made no claim on the ability for others to do it.
I’ll give you so much as i didn’t append “for me” or “in my situation” to every sentence, but the statements lay within the context provided in the rest of the post.
I’m not denying it’s technically feasible. I do deny learned helplessness. I have limited energy in life. Using it on making a change I’m not passionate about is a recipe for severe burnout. If i get more involved and find there’s sentiment towards a migration away from FB then I’d spend some energy on building and facilitating that. Barging in and making demands isn’t an effective way to build community. You can introduce ideas and develop them over time to show that it comes from care for and dedication to the org.
So yeah it’s unrealistic on the time scales I’m concerned with.
Shrooms or acid at that point.
Though cookies with butter or rso may be a good choice.
Consent is far and away the biggest concern here.
The benzene produced in a combustion temperature and oxygen rich environment like an open fireplace would immediately burn into CO/2 and water. That warning applies to vaporizers. Even then you’re probably more exposed to benzene fueling up at a gas station. That said I agree you should avoid it where you can especially when it’s getting shot straight into your lungs.
Make sure to use home brew so you know it’s unpasteurized. You want that raw beer.
Ah shit you’re right! They’re going to love having their social media on stevesbasement.social. So accessible to the general public!
They’ll ghost you even if you do give them everything they ask for. I can’t even make a new account under my real name or anything close to it anymore.
It sucks it’s the only realistic platform for discovering and getting info from interest groups in my area.
Yeah… Not liking steak really was a frustrating experience growing up there. Similar experience I’m sure with other food stuff: “you just haven’t had it prepared right” said 50th+ person who wants to cook me a medium rare steak with salt and pepper, oiled, over a charcoal barbeque only to be middling flavor, terribly chewy and get stuck between teeth.
But i could eat flavorful beans or lentils or berries. This corn, even off the cob, has wasted space on my plate. It is better made into proper corn foods like corn bread or tortillas.
Sorry maybe not awful per se, but tastes neutral, whole kernels get bits between the teeth and you have to floss after. Experience is less than mid but people claim it’s like an orgasm in your mouth. Same thoughts about steak, or Batman movies.
I can go weeks, dozens of sleep cycles and never see a hint of instability with my Arch daily driver. It only needs a reboot after update and didn’t even ask for it.
My windows computer (work, 2025 lenovo, fresh install) can’t make it an hour without explorer crashing. They also fucked up task manager… The latest new bug is right and left click getting swapped requiring a reboot. I never imagined that was even possible.
There needs to be a financial benefit or punitive incentive for companies to move from conventional oil based products. Ethics or the viability of the planet just aren’t viable grounds under capitalism.
Well it tastes awful so it’s nice they found a use for it.
I guess you’re right in the sense that neither could play audio off drivers packaged with install media in that era.
Unless they’re run by a state entity it’s extremely unlikely they’ll operate at a loss.
If you’re talking about the “Whoopsy doodle! #redacted :3” portion of the US military budget then yes it’s possible only the tortured prisoner title applies.
I love seeing the earlier practice and attempts! It makes the final artworks perfection shine even brighter when you can see and relate to the flaws that came before.
So pretty!
Pretty much exactly that plus a market. Prisoners held for torture are still slaves. They turn a profit for the prison as long as they’re not dead. They’re just funded by your tax dollars instead of private wealth.
The fuck you think a plantation was?
It’s entertaining and is a seemingly permanent and ubiquitous member of the zeitgeist. It shares that and more than a few themes with The Matrix.
It’s also some of the last fully hand drawn major studio anime works. (AFAIK)
CW: It is uncomfortable at some parts because of how girls (children) are depicted/sexualized.
