That'd also harm big corporations less than small, independent artists who don't get paid as much per use of their artwork.

Under capitalism, copyrights are a necessary tool for people to get paid for their labour in some cases. That's not the most common usecase for copyrights, but a needed one until we get a better system. Fuck copyrights being used for corporate greed though. Somehow, more people are against the former than the latter, which is super wrong. But it's not a reason to be against the former in addition to being against the latter.

That is an aggressively shitty way to present that data

Idk if itll help but have you tried annas archive? It mirrors multiple science piracy sites.

Edit:do you mean pedagogical materials or research? Cause I don't think you'll be lucky if it's the former.

Major mood

I'm both like you and a fidgeter myself. It sucks. I do try to fidget subtlely- I like rubbing my fingernails with the thumb of the same hand.

Huh I thought since most are moisturizing that they were basically lotion with extra sun protecting ingredients!

Not questioning that you can die of nicotine overdose! I mean, you can die from water overdose. More wondering what the LD50 was, and if the butt of one cigarette was enough to be lethal.

Most enbies consider ourselves trans, seeing as trans means to identify with a gender other than the one you were assigned.

I've been wondering why so much sunscreen has alcohol, exactly because of what you explained. Do you happen to know?

One time when I was a drunk dumb teen I ate half a cigarette and I didn't die. Didn't even feel anything. I hear that thing about a cig butt killing a child a lot, I wonder if anyone has a source?

Disclaimer: it's not a good idea either way

Makes sense that if your political views include that whether you deserve to stay alive is tied to how much value you create for shareholders, you spend less time nurturing your creativity.

Valid to not care!

I have fun with my nails, I don't see them as expected/socially required maintenance. In my field it's actually seen as less professional to have long nails, especially in noticable polish. I get excited when I get to work from home for a week because that means I can go crazy with nails and makeup.

Microwaving some soy milk and stirring in some powder isn't exactly 'make'

Me: if I DIY I'll save money!

My 30 bottles of nail polish plus files and oils:

You 100% are judged on your looks. As someone who's assigned female though, and usually lets interviewers read them as such initially, I have something to add.

There's a VERY specific type of look women have to have in order to be seen as professional. You have to be as flawless as possible, but you also have to be understated. Any 'fun' type of femininity is looked down on. The long lashes, long nails and red lips definitely fall in that category. 'Professional' for women means you have to spend a lot of time and money on skin, makeup, jewelry, nails, hair, clothing, but you can't have fun with it.*

Personally I'm in stem academia, where it's expected that you look like you don't spend any time on your appearance at all. Otherwise it'll be assumed you can't keep up with the men. Still can't have, for example, body hair though.

*Unless you happen to have fun with nude colours and understated jewelry and fashion. Nothing wrong with that!

Id look like that if I was using Microsoft software, too.

I have autistic sensory issues and the cheapest one I can at all tolerate to have on my skin is 15€ for 50ml. I have so many of the 5-10€ bottles at home and can't handle any of them. Fml

Half ashamed to admit but I'm white and sometimes something like that slips out when I see my partner. How are some people so perfectly milk coloured

'more damaging' is unfortunately not a simple linear scale. One requires more space, the other releases more poisons into the environment. Both suck. But if production becomes plant based at the same time as organic, there'll still be way less space used overall. Cursory searx tells me 3/4 of agricultural land is used for animal agriculture (including growing feed). Horribly inefficient.
