YSK that apart from not having a car and voting, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat.

  • You can’t get meat from a cow twice, you can get milk lots of times.

  • Not eating red meat is so fucking easy now. If I can be an old man who went to school uphill in the snow both ways for a second, I dropped meat 20ish years ago in the US deep south, and holy fuck talk about an impossible diet. Even the vegetables had meat in them, and that is not a joke.

    This is obviously going to depend on your area and how much of a food desert you’re in, but I’ve never seen so much access to so many kinds of meat replacements in average grocery stores and not just bougie upscale places. Tofu, tempeh, fake meat everything! Which isn’t even a big part of my diet, but I love having the option when I want something new.

    • Yes, I wrote a very expensive bug. In my defense I was only seven years old at the time

  • Racking up that large a phone bill with dialup internet is very impressive! Today if a 7 year old spends that kind of money it’s almost certainly because someone forgot to lock the app store/roblox account.

    • AI is learning to lie, scheme, and threaten its creators during stress-testing scenarios

    Jump

  • I think part of it is that they want to gaslight people into believing they have actually achieved AI (as in, intelligence that is equivalent to and operates like that of a human’s) and that these are signs of emergent intelligence, not their product flopping harder than a sack of mayonnaise on asphalt.

    • Yes, I bought it

  • Are you okay? Sorry if I hurt your feelings by assuming the thing that obviously isn’t a human asshole was AI, when we live in a world swimming in AI slop. I promise to be more judicious in accusing misleadingly labeled images of being AI slop in the future, when in fact they may be photoshop relics of the past, if it will make you feel better.

    • Yes, I bought it

  • Interesting! I wonder what they used for the cover art? Because I would bet on my life this is not a human anus.

    • Yes, I bought it

  • Is everything in it AI slop, or just the cover image?

    • Texas Officials Slam Trump’s National Weather Service for Botched Forecast

  • An ad hominem would be if I said something like ‘nobody should listen to this guy because he’s a sociopath,’ it’s not just a retort for when anyone makes any uncharitable characterization of your argument. (It’s also not even evidence that an argument is invalid, that’s called the fallacy fallacy)

    Which, if you want to accuse me of committing an ad hominem by characterizing your argument as ‘fuck them kids,’ you might not want to immediately go straight to how they deserved it for living in a red state.

    • Trump’s DOGE cuts are a Texas-sized disaster

    Jump

  • ‘Cheer the deaths of children because it hurts their parents who might have voted for Trump’ is disgustingly low, congrats.

    • Kidnappers or ICE agents? LAPD grapples with surge in calls from concerned citizens

    Jump

  • I’m going off news reports where the LAPD has shown up to kidnapping calls and kept the crowd back so they could abduct people.

    They are explicitly instructed to ‘keep the peace’ as ICE abducts people.

    If you have any examples of this actually doing anything other than giving cover to ICE I’d be open to seeing it.

  • TIL flash floods selectively target Trump voters. Or are we doing collective guilt now? Fuck them dead kids, am I right?

    Jump

  • That’s exactly what they do every time they show up when people call them. All you’re doing is calling for backup for them.

  • I wasn’t aware that summer camp had kids that all voted for Trump. Those dead kids really got what was coming to them!

    • Millionaire homeowners sued the city of Charlottesville, Virginia, arguing a 10 square mile town whose new zoning plan to increase density had no plan to expand the roads

    Jump

  • You are writing fanfiction. First you made up that these home owners live rurally, then you made up that Charlottesville is somehow expanding beyond the borders of the town?? Being able to read doesn’t help you if you have no reading comprehension.

    Jump

  • Why would rural homeowners be filing a suit about a 10 square mile town they don’t live in?

    The population density for Charlottesville is over 4500/sq mile. Nobody there is living rurally.

  • Definitely possible, it’s just a little too consistent for me to think it’s all people meeting their hero and nobody just trying to do their job and getting treated poorly.
