That shit works IRL too. Why do you think therapy practices often have themselves positioned in front of a wall of books? Not that it’s a bad thing; it’s good for outcomes to believe your therapist is competent and well educated.

Sometimes you gotta bring up the classics, maybe someone still hasn’t seen it and will be one of today’s lucky 10,000. (:

But there is basically nothing preventing you from some private recreational forklift operating

That sounds like a horrible idea. If you operate a forklift without proper training, some really bad stuff can happen.

Danger tail plug.

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say you’re not going to address your labour shortage by making things worse for labourers.

What are you talking about? The billionaires love cheap labour.

Oh, his voters. Yeahhh…

Studying maths is a good way to pasta time.

There’s a difference between not buying anything from China, which would be nearly impossible, and not specifically having your own merch made there, though, especially when you get to choose the manufacturer. It’s not like China is the only place you can have these things made.

There’s nothing wrong with shearing sheep if there’s no exploitation occurring. The problem is when you add a profit motive to keep breeding animals designed with their exploitation in mind.

However, I’m going to go out on limb here, and say there probably aren’t many sheep in the care of vegans except on animal sanctuaries. The important thing is to stop buying wool and funding animal exploitation.

Lol, yeah, same. r/VCJ helped me go vegan too. My first time there was so confusing and anger inducing.

Might also want to make an image of the device with dd if=/dev/DEVICE-NAME conv=sync,noerror bs=128K > sd_card.img first. It’s often a good practice to make a raw backup before doing anything that changes the device.

Didn’t WaPo recently get bought out? Or was that another paper I’m thinking of?

Edit: Nope, just reorganized, it seems.

“Rectuma Dentata”, what a wonderful phrase

Rectuma Dentata ain’t no passing craze

Called it.

Different city, but same exact play.

Haha, yeah, that’s why I said it’s my diplomatic answer, as it doesn’t utterly reject a capitalist framework.

Here’s my mildly diplomatic answer that’d probably get tossed:

Piracy has become a plague on our society, but there’s a more sinister cause to it. The average labourer can hardly afford to pay the same fee to access culture that the wealthy person can, and this has caused a significant and justified uptick in piracy.

This situation can be averted by increasing minimum wages and supporting universal basic income. If everyone knew they could at least make ends meet, they’d have some left over to pay for the culture that mattered to them.

Pushing a solution that requires dependence on animal agriculture is just someone trying to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge.

Also, was there supposed to be a linked article?

Why does just a picture and a headline have so many upvotes? Is this community asleep at the wheel??

Never mind, it’s fixed now, and the linked article clearly views the “solution” as a negative.

Why are you looking through 7 month old posts for stuff to get mad about? Get a life bruh.

“Climate change isn’t re-blub blub blub!” >:(

It’s fine. I haven’t died yet, so I fail to see sufficient evidence that I eventually will.
