Being okay with genocide as long as you have other interests you don’t wish to risk by taking a stand against it is kinda basically “complicit”, isn’t it?
My gender is my concern, but you may use any pronoun to refer to me

lol cope harder
Naaah, just privatized suicide services. Oh wait, we have those, we call them long term care.
Perversely, while it would be easier for someone with no equipment to maintain in their home, it would be a bigger pain in the ass for a bike shop here to maintain than a typical cargo bike would be.
Okay, but it equals one.
How is this in any way difficult to grasp?
UW administration hates its students.

you forgot dairy and meat
Since coming to understand the consequences to our health, our climate, our governance and culture through corporate manipulation and propaganda, and most of all, to intelligent animals, I can’t really look back on this stuff with nostalgia. It feels like looking back on neglect and abuse.
Unfortunately, that doesn’t work in general. It is easier to poison discussion than it is to convince people with arguments. One person screaming obscenities prevent an entire room of people from having a rational discussion. It’s an asymmetrical effort, it’s hard work to produce quality information, and it’s free to generate gigabytes of slanted information.
If you are a human being, there are many things you know are true, but you act as if they are not. We are not rational creatures, we are social creatures. We don’t respond to arguments, we respond to social cues. It is more important for an extremely social creature like a human to agree with their social group than to be objectively correct.
Not always. Sometimes, the whole system collapses, and then after a period of insecurity, we all enjoy a period of massive prosperity.
I agree and have often said the same thing! If you’re going to park illegally, inconvenience drivers, don’t ENDANGER vulnerable users!
Delivery drivers don’t “have to”. They are exploiting an externality and making me less safe so that they can make more money than they would if they took the extra two minutes to park legally and use a dolly. They are literally monetizing my endangerment.
“National treasure” doesn’t prescribe a jurisdiction.
So many poor and working class Americans will see this and think, “Progress!”
I think it seems sort of arbitrary to classify foods by protein content as though it were critical to our nutrition. Like, we could classify foods by colour and then get concerned when we don’t have enough purple food, and track how much purple per calorie or gram we get for each food, and publish charts on that basis, but it wouldn’t be telling anyone anything they can actually use, no matter how much they might be concerned about getting enough purple. But the fashion might become, “you need purple food to have big muscles,” and then people start thinking that charts that aren’t arranged by colour are comparing arbitrarily different things.
I know it sounds pretty wild and fringe, but have you ever seen or even heard of someone ever suffering from the consequences of insufficient protein in their diet who wasn’t also suffering a massive calorie deficit? Every fitness store in the world sells protein, protein, protein, but they also sell a hundred other kinds of bunk. Have you ever heard someone say, “Wow, adding this protein REALLY increased my gains!” This space is really vulnerable to snake oil.
All our favorite health-based researchers tell us that the protein goals specified by body building culture are wildly beyond what the body actually uses.
I was a total Rust junkie, I was playing 40 hours a week. Then they dropped support for the Linux client and wouldn’t let Proton users do EAC. I had to stop cold turkey. But I fucking did it, because fuck capital-driven operating systems designed to exploit me and my own computer against me.
It would be more convincing but it would not be more meaningful. If you only ate potatoes and you got enough calories, you would be getting enough protein. The whole idea of a “protein source” being a nutritionally significant concept is bogus. If anything, you want to moderate your protein.
