That def makes the most sense aside from Photoshop or AI.

I don’t know much about growing produce, but I’d think making a mold for something that grows underground would be more difficult than something that grows on top of the soil.

*My bad- should have read previous comments closer. Good convo yall

lolrightythen ,

That’s beautiful

lolrightythen ,

Simplicity is powerful. I’ve mumbled a few things that turned out to be far more meaningful than I intended.

Not you, though. A Lazer of human consciousness, that’s you!

Dad once told me that money can’t buy happiness, but poverty can buy misery. Whatever that’s worth.

Good job, yo. And thanks. We need to share our fresh, creative ideas.

lolrightythen ,

Heard, but my experience was positive.

Appreciate you looking out.

lolrightythen ,

Absolutely. The divide isn’t going to be solved any time soon.

I respect those who choose the high road, but acting in good faith and expecting reciprocation is what they love to dunk on.

lolrightythen ,

I get that folks are engaged for various reasons, but Wikipedia isn’t at it’s best when it comes to current events. I feel like that battle will slow as time passes.

Still - a big thank you to those who strive to combat misinformation.

*And you make a great point. Make the edits to Trump’s page after the dust settles and there is no argument about the facts.

lolrightythen ,

Especially when you get into archaic laws that aren’t enforced or widely known.

lolrightythen ,

Agreed. And props for making a point that isn’t palatable. The first one is complicated. Not many folk I talk to can set aside their revulsion and consider the situation logically. I wish we didn’t have to in the first place.

Perfectly to what end? Is this a teaser for season two of “three body problem”?

Transgender activists flood Utah tip line with hoax reports to block bathroom law enforcement (apnews.com)

Transgender activists have flooded a Utah tip line created to alert state officials to possible violations of a new bathroom law with thousands of hoax reports in an effort to shield trans residents and their allies from any legitimate complaints that could lead to an investigation....

It’s a beautiful state, politics aside

lolrightythen ,

I’ve been on both sides and they’re both true. Biking in to get ingredients for one meal is quick. Taking a car to gather a week’s supplies (I still have to go back for something later) is a bigger endeavor.

I try to time it with my work schedule, which changes a lot. Old people block aisles and chat from 10 to 12. It’s deathly busy from 3 to 5.

lolrightythen ,

I personally don’t, but some dogs love it. It’s their safe space.

lolrightythen ,

I appreciate your take. It touches on “everyone else does it” without using that as an excuse to ignore the possible violations of human rights. I could use more conversations like this.

Good job, yo!

lolrightythen ,

I was enjoying a casual thread until this

lolrightythen ,

Short chain oil!? At first I thought you were bs’ing about seasoning a pan with gear oil.

That sent me down a novel rabbit hole. Thanks for your input!

lolrightythen ,

I wish everyone treated that as a matter of fact like you all did.

lolrightythen ,

Maybe I’m wrong, but I see no problem in people sharing their reactions. It isn’t necessary for every comment to advance a scholarly debate.

lolrightythen ,

Hah, there are a couple typos but the comment still kind of makes sense.

lolrightythen ,

pre edit: this is just a pointless rant. Your time is precious. Consider skipping it

Please don’t take my statement as arguing against your point (I like where you are coming from).

I don’t even need sources, I rarely believe metrics in the first place because it is so difficult to conceive and even harder to conduct studies at this scale. This isn’t even a possibility in my mind, but:

If everyone that wasn’t in the global top 10% of wealth went full Fremen, would the problem truly continue to exist? I doubt it because much of the much industry owned by our increasingly indulgent hoarders wouldn’t be necessary. There wouldn’t be regular folks to make or buy the product. We’d be hiding under the sand in a cave while drinking our own pee.

I’m not knocking it - I haven’t tried it. All at once, anyways.

The gluttonous upper crust would still be jetting to the poles and burning tires for light, but I feel like that would be a much smaller burden on our planet’s ability to support life as we’ve known it than industry on a massive global scale.

I don’t know what my point is exactly. I don’t think I believe we’ll find a workable solution without a cataclysm. Let’s go with: selfish assholes are gonna earn their title every time. Regular folks shouldn’t be told that their combined efforts won’t put a dent in the problem. The ultra rich process nature into poison in order to gain more wealth and power over their peasants. Weakening public education and access to healthcare helps them sell their low quality, single use poisonous trinkets. Having a bunch of money isn’t useful if there aren’t a lot of folks that have little or even less money. Power, money, knowledge - resource - however you want to frame it.

But then the rich could just overpopulate and use their least favorite offspring as peasants…

Ugh. I should just delete this comment as I don’t know what my central statement is. I am certainly not disagreeing. Maybe its that we shouldnt accept futility even though our efforts may truly be futile. To encourage integrity and contentment among our masses. It’s very possible for the inhabitants to overcome our downward trend - but if we end up failing, there is still no reason we should accept defeat and be the poor, uneducated, meager servants they see us as.

Fuck the powers that don’t respect every life equally. Even if resistance isn’t effective, I’d rather suffer than accept a darker future. (I won’t have kids. Easy for me to say)

Ugh. Sorry if anyone reads this. I just needed to vent I guess. Thanks for being interested and making the post and conversation. Be well all

lolrightythen ,

It’s fun stuff, right?? I’ve never been able to conceive why the ultra wealthy would want to let the peasants eventually die off.

Perhaps there are currently more peasants than they require? Was Ritchie Rich just waiting until AI drones became advanced enough to serve them properly?

My limited experience with wealthy folk (prob not even the top 15%) is that they like to feel superior by comparison. Some may be intelligent. Most are educated well even if they lack any aptitude.

My best guess is that they lack wisdom or any semblance of awareness that an aristocracy is stagnant. The things that live on our planet have had to struggle and adapt to survive. At some (small and meek) level, they fuel the forces that would oppose them.

It’s not actually fun stuff. I was joshing. I doubt we get to create the United Federation of Planets in the future. I would be ecstatic if that statement was proven wrong.

lolrightythen ,

I agree with the good call. Can’t say I’m as fascinated by her receiving more attention than half the NFL teams, tho

lolrightythen ,

All fair points. Just adding my own comment to the previous one.

lolrightythen ,

Kudos in the caption!

lolrightythen ,

This convo has been nagging at me all year. I should have responded in kind - and it should have been this

lolrightythen ,

Yeah, I tend to think the first one to posit a statement should also be the first to supply evidence

lolrightythen ,

They kicked it off paramount for whatever reason. I just watched it and it’s good!

lolrightythen ,

There’s a name for people who try to shut down free speech.

lolrightythen ,

Way to pile on. You’ve really made a difference and shown how shiny your armor is.

lolrightythen ,

I read them front to back. Like a boss

lolrightythen ,

Netflix did a couple movies where you could choose the adventure as it diverges.

lolrightythen ,

I’m not super far left in the whole scheme of things, mostly because I don’t think my preferred team would win the ensuing battle - but anything essential for living a baseline quality of life should be protected from profiteers and fraudsters. Capitalism is cruel and selfish.
