I used to eat meat. Don’t anymore because the arguments against it are just that fucking strong. Basically unless you advocate for religious supremacy it’s hard to make a cohesive argument in favor of meat consumption.

OK… I mean if you don’t understand the internet then there’s not a lot I can do to help you.

This is primarily meant for people to organize themselves online. Local networks already exist and those are the channels through which protests have traditionally gone. Organizing the internet tends to be a bit messier, but when it works it’s usually via several “hubs” (think fucknestle, save3rdpartyapps, etc.).

Sure, I’ll add that.

Thanks, I’m aware. There’s a couple of links in the post already.

Can we also do this for women?

I’d have men wear more turtlenecks, and tighter jeans. Doesn’t need to be TIGHT, just not the insanely baggy styles that have been around for the past 20 years. And turtlenecks… they have the effect of making a guy’s shoulders look broader. People underestimate the effect of shoulders on appearance as a whole, in both men and women. If you’re a guy with rounded or somewhat narrower shoulders, turtlenecks are your best friend. You can also wear slightly wide-cut t-shirts, or sweaters that have a looser fit at the top or with a logo/detail right underneath where your neck ends.

Supreme court cases. There are some real doozies, not that anyone irl cares.

Hugs on drugs

When I was a kid my teacher told my parents “she has something that nobody else at her age has, and that’s genuine empathy”. Now I’m an adult so it’s not an applicable compliment anymore, but I still appreciate that comment, and I’d like to think it was true.

Omg I JUST did this, though she was in grade 12. Basically did all the work knowing that she wouldn’t graduate if she didn’t hand it in. If I’m honest it bothers me because she didn’t deserve to graduate, and I don’t like the idea of enabling someone’s bad habits and she makes a habit of skating by, but I couldn’t help myself. Not having a high school diploma is a death knell for so many things, and I think there was a very good chance that she wouldn’t have gone back to finish school. I don’t know if I made the right decision or if she just needed to learn a life lesson and experience some real consequences, but alas here we are.

That’s actually really interesting, I like it. I’m trying to brainstorm areas where I’ve neglected to consider associated costs. Probably cooking for me? I have a strong tendency to get culinary inspiration and drop way more cash than I intended on all the things I didn’t realize I would need.

BEANS

Addictive carbs and salt, dirt cheap, and healthy as shit. Also convenient and compatible with most dietary/ethical restrictions.

If you learn to like beans when you’re 20 and throw it into an index fund, you’ll have a modest retirement fund just on the money you saved (yes, I calculated it based on money saved and growth of the S&P).

And not even a real internet forum with some connection to the world, like a forum for engineers or something, but just these generic cat video style forums that don’t really add huge value to anyone’s life. Your entire existence is to fill the 30-second void for people standing in elevators.

That is an objectively sad life. Imagine people asking what you did with your life and your answer is “I had imaginary power on a now-defunct internet site doing unpaid work day in and day out. I spent hours upon hours of my life creating charts that only apply in this digital universe to make myself feel important while people who scrolled my page for five minutes a day on the subway were out doing things in the real world”.
