As an artist I think it's a more complicated issue than a lot of people are making it out to be, and all the fearmongering some popular artists are promoting really doesn't help.
I think it's fine in moderation and when it's some manually curated service like the children's section of streaming platforms (but even then it's not perfect considering Cocomelon exists), or in the case of YouTube you're watching it WITH your kid to avoid running into anything weird (though I think any platform meant for content aimed towards children should be 100% manually curated). The problem is when it's excessive or it winds up sending your five year old down a bizarre rabbithole of pregnant Spiderman twerking videos because you didn't bother to moderate what they were watching.
I'd rather a hundred of those than some kid with mommy's iPhone watching brainrotting Youtube Kids videos all day with the sound on. At least then I won't feel bad for the kid.
Those things don't HAVE to be NFTs for it to be done. I've also seen some devs say they're wary of adding such a feature when it was brought up to them due to concerns of potentially encouraging hacking, which could be part why you don't see it very often?
I think they can work, the problem tends to be people going into it not realizing that it's more demanding than monogamy, one person feeling pressured into it especially when the relationship started as monogamous, and/or it being done as an attempt to "fix" a relationship that clearly isn't working out, the latter of which happened with someone I know.
Celestial Seasonings tea and Shen Yun both have ties to cults. With Celestial Seasonings the cult that founded it no longer own or profit off it thankfully, but their tea is shit so I still don't recommend buying it.
I still eat chocolate, I just try to limit it to stuff that's slave free. The biggest brands tend to be shit in comparison to a lot of smaller slave free brands anyway.
Nestlé and big chocolate brands such as Hershey. I doubt they'll stop their human rights violations until they face actual repercussions so I'm probably gonna keep it that way.
I am by no means pro death penalty, but I prefer this over the lethal injection. It's a very painful and horrifying way to go and not at all like the drugs they give someone for medical euthanasia, while suffocating on nitrogen is actually relatively painless.
You ask for iced or hot, and you usually get some nasty ass Lipton tea if you go for hot, though this may vary by restaurant. I love tea, but I've spoiled myself with fancier ones to the point where I can't stand most of those big American brands. Some iced teas I can at least tolerate though.

Was still thinking of giving it a shot, especially now that I got it for free through PS Plus.
