People are awesome and exhausting at the same time. Socializing is like exercising. If I don’t do it I feel horrible. If I do it too much without a break I feel horrible. If I do it just enough, then stop doing it and rest, it’s nice. Moderation.

Locuralacura ,

The fuck does tendentious mean and how do I even pronounce it?

Locuralacura ,

Fuck no. I am poor as fuck, I can’t tip bobody for nothing. Frozen pizza is the lazy meal for me. Because it’s 8 dollars not 80.

Locuralacura ,

Sitting in a car, flying out the window as I realize I am dreaming and become Lucid.

Locuralacura ,

I love being accused of personally overthrowing every south American country because I am from US.

Locuralacura ,

Don’t tell us facts. We’ve already decided to believe whatever the fuck we want regardless. /s

Locuralacura ,

We’re already forced to burn oil to power air conditioners so our elders don’t die in heatwave. Just imagine the inside of a giant Vegas casino without electricity.

Locuralacura ,

You said we will still use oil because it’s profitable. I said that we can’t stop using oil, because our earth is too hot, because we are too much burning oil. How am I off topic?

My point is, it’s not economically viable for an elderly Texan to spend 500 bucks on inflated energy prices during a heatwave, but it’s not like there is a choice. We’re gonna burn it all up because we don’t know how to stop.

Locuralacura ,

My retirement plan is to die in the climate/water wars or famine or disease. If not then I’ll be working till I die. Both are suboptimal choices.

My boomer parents try to help me feel better by reminding me of a social security that will not exist, pension funds that will not exist, and social stability that will not exist. Yay. Thanks.

Locuralacura ,

History doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes.

Locuralacura ,

If I heard “traditional lifestyle” out of context and I had to assume the rest, I’d be thinking about, yeah, living with your family unless married. Most of the people in the world live like this still.

Locuralacura ,

I make chicken sandwiches and fish sandwiches better than they do with their shredded iceberg garbage. How about kimchi, Tartar, Strachan, pickles on a fish sandwich. And bbq sauce with sautéed mushrooms and onions on fried chicken sandwiches.

Locuralacura ,

You can make a subjectively better Chicken sandwich yourself. The iceberg will be fresher, crunching, and more nutritional.

Locuralacura ,

US can’t win a war and neither can Israel.

Locuralacura ,

If Taiwan were China why do mainland Chinese need a passport to go there?

It’s like saying north and south Korea are the same country because, historically, they used to be the same country.

They’re not the same country.

Locuralacura ,

Why

Locuralacura ,

Why would north and south Korea try to reunite?

Locuralacura ,

For me it’s become the opposite. I open reddit /all and see twenty adds for joining the US Army, US navy, I see a few posts with 9k comments. I feel bored. I close it and look on lemme and there’s always at least as much if not more content, and the sheer mass of it isn’t overwhelming to me at all. People are stupid on both platforms, but for me this one has become a less stressful alternative.

The advertising on reddit is quickly getting out of hand.

Locuralacura ,

Heres another layer; AI arguing about whether an AI written article is misinformation.

Locuralacura ,

And if you try to tell anyone you were sexually assaulted, be prepared to have your family threatened with violence.

Locuralacura ,

Can I go ahead and finish the house of cards yet?

Locuralacura ,

Your opinions are peak capitalism.

Locuralacura ,

Having opinions is capitalism how? Marx had strong opinions. Was it the product capitalism?

Locuralacura ,

There’s like 100 people with the power to make the change and they’ve all decided to invest the money and power in self preservation. It’s the biggest ‘fuck you proletariat scum’ I could imagine. theguardian.com/…/super-rich-prepper-bunkers-apoc…

Locuralacura ,

Are you talking about American voters?

Only about 35 percent of the eligible voters participated, so yeah. Apathy and complacent comfort is a big player in the game. I’m pretty convinced that a lot of people’s apathy comes from the lack of political agency. When business interests conflict with human interests guess who wins every time.

Locuralacura ,

Ok. Well, not all countries are democracies. So, excluded those ones right off the bat. And then narrow it to voters who participate and those who do not.

Locuralacura ,

I think America is one of the participatory democratic countries. But many other countries are not. What are you actually confused about??

Locuralacura ,

The largest emitter of greenhouse gasses, and CO2 is China, which not a democratic county. The second largest is United States. Idk how to discuss the possibility of ‘voting’ the climate change problem away without mentioning these two nations.

Locuralacura ,

What the hell are you going on with all this US brabbling

Well well well, now you want to discuss US? Now it suddenly seems relevant? Hmmmmm.

Locuralacura ,

Okay, but I was replying to that user. Americans must stop consuming, and that is not controversial at all.

Locuralacura ,

I felt an existential crisis about this a few years ago. I wanted everyone to simply stop everything, appreciate what they had. I sat down and spent an entire year as simply as possible. Eating simply, consuming very little. The truth is, it’s difficult to do and in our society it is not rewarded. I felt like it was a period of self improvement, but the ultimate truth is, I could not control anyone else, even if I was the living personification of self sustaining anti consumerism. Now I teach early elementary. Participating in this very small way feels like a vast improvement to hiding out like a hermit.

I can’t control anyone, especially wealthy adults. But I can influence the future adults.

Locuralacura ,

Okay. Thanks for politely correcting me. But which country is the largest emitter of CO2?

statista.com/…/the-largest-emitters-of-co2-in-the…

Not that this changes anything. It’s just another idiotic talking point as you so politely pointed out. But then again, I never asserted the idiotic notion that we could simply vote the problem away either.

You did.

Then you politely pointed out that it was stupid to talk about America.

Then you made sure to call me an idiot, because America is the largest emitter of greenhouse gasses.

Care to elaborate on any of this in a productive manner?

Locuralacura , (edited )

How shall I help again exactly? Voting? I didn’t blame China, I simply pointed out that your solution, ‘voting’ doesn’t work in a place that doesn’t have participatory democracy. China is to blame just like America is. The wealthy, powerful Chinese and Americans, who actually could do something besides idiotically arguing, decide to continue fucking the world, our children’s futures, and everything else that gets in the way of their maintaining that power. Mostly the people with power over the problem actively ignore or disregard the problem. I do vote. I pick up trash. I avoid buying new stuff, beyond that, since I’m not the CEO of Exon Mobil, I really don’t have agency.

Locuralacura ,

What you originally said…

They could vote for policy makers that bring change, or go into politics themselves. But they don’t actually want to be affected by such policy changes. It’s always the others, always just finger pointing.

This implied that if we voted green, if I went into politics on a environmental platform, if I inconvenienced myself, it could change things. This does, indeed, suggest some sort of solution. I politely disagreed for a variety of reasons, you rudely misunderstood. Did I blame China? No I pointed out that voting green wouldn’t change China. Did I say America is awesome. No I said America is a major part of the problem.

You say everyone is out there finger pointing, but you are unclear, and blaming me for not understanding what you are trying to say perfectly. Point the finger up your tight butt instead of at me.

Locuralacura ,

climate denial bullshit

Please point to the place where I denied climate change.

You’ve pointed your finger at me the entire time we’ve talked, while failing to own your own words. You can’t move the goal posts and expect anyone to give a shit about your opinions. You are saying voting can’t change anything, while saying voting is the way to change the problem. Pick one please.

Locuralacura ,

This entire comment chain of you trying to deflect away from taking action

Where exactly? What action am I deflecting?

You’re the who’s moving the goalpost

Please elaborate/ substantiate what have I said that is contradictory?

You said ‘voters won’t change anything’ but voting green is the way to change… If only people would vote green. So which one is it???

Locuralacura ,

You like saying people go around pointing fingers, but I only see your finger pointing at me.

Did I use rude and insuting language at you? Did I make in substantiated claims and then back down when asked for clarification?

Your shit stinks just like everyone else’s

Locuralacura ,

I’m only on reddit for a few select, very specific communities. If I ever find a replacement it’s over. Help with Immigration laws, teach practices, language learning ECT. I’m thinking maybe I’d like to start the teachers group over here.

Locuralacura ,

I definitely don’t have time to moderate, I barely have time to scan headlines.

Locuralacura OP ,

I’ve been reading a lot about Buddhism and it does seem like people understood the connection between gut and mind before, just not in the scientific manner we understand it now.

Also, being a teacher of little kids, if a kid is having a tough time emotionally, my reflex reaction is to ask if they ate breakfast. I whip out a little snack and 99 percente of the time they feel better.

I know emotions are connected to our bellies but I’ve not thought about mental illness being so connected.

Locuralacura ,

Communicating with people in China is difficult. For your own security, I’d use something like Skype. If that’s not working anymore then ask your coworkers to install a VPN so they can use WhatsApp or signal or Line.

Locuralacura ,

Perennial crops of corn, wheat, rice and sorghum exist already. The land institute should win the Nobel peace prize. Look it up.
