Makes me think of the cocaine they plasticize and make into the suitcase it’s self, so it’s a perfectly normal suitcase in every way except the plastic is impregnated with coke… same type of thing is completely possible here

Um what??

Millennials are also the first generation to really lean into child free lifestyles too, usually out of necessity not because we hate babies. We got fucked and had the audacity to throw a wrench in the machine of not following orders and being clones of our parents

So many of these are so good, too many people don’t realize you can use your body to essentially “hack” your brain

That’s just the Cold War which never actually ended

You can bet on who wins and loses, but wouldn’t just banning doing that, placing bets, make more sense than banning chess? wtf is there left to do for fun in that part of the world?

I’ve never waged war in any country actually, despite being born in the US, believe it or not but we aren’t all personally in charge of what the US does as it’s citizens, we actually have very very little power because our reps aren’t legally required to vote or do as we say

lol generic “Washington DC” is ~2,700 miles away, 4,345 kilometers, from me! And I live in the lower 48/continental US

Because no two people, places, events are actually identical

lol if all the things wrong with that comment this is what stuck out to you??

I’ve always assumed communism works really well the smaller the group but at the scale of hundreds of millions it becomes very difficult logistically and also of course all those people need to agree with it so they’re not actively trying to sabotage it. I don’t see any danger in smaller nations being communist and never understood why people do consider it dangerous, outside of the obvious capitalist reasons and of course the dictators who used it as a front

Unless the example is similar in size and scope to the country I live in I struggle to find true relevance in the subject of communism as a national government

There was one here recently I think?? Maybe it was Reddit but I recently got a total ban so I can’t check lol but I the person I responded to also said they were like 6 feet tall on top of having itty bitty feet and showed a photo of feet in shoes only so I told them I didn’t believe them. This is a more common lie than I expected lol

The animation freaked me out but Dr Seuss illustrations also freaks me out

There’s a subset of TERFs that are lesbians, they’ve seen a lot of butch lesbians transition fairly recently (from what I’ve collected on the TERF forum I’m aware of) and they seem to point to that a lot. They seem to just consider transmen to be butch lesbians who “bought into gender ideology” and consider them to be quite delusional for doing so. I don’t get any sense of particularly “protecting butch lesbians from themselves” they seem to frame it more as those women are lost causes and the way to “protect them” is by not allowing them to be “infected” by trans identity, they definitely talk about them like they’re “asking for it” if anything bad does happen to them because they do believe they are women entering a world of evil men but have no way of physically preventing it.

I don’t consider myself a TERF, I do consider myself to be a fairly radical feminist (no we aren’t automatically trans exclusionary) so I do sometimes see them in rad fem spaces and was genuinely curious about the perspective but it seems fairly not cohesive there’s tons of conservative think in it, lots of “crunchy” women etc. TERFs honestly seem to care way more about the TE than the RF, they don’t seem to have any uniting ideology…

I’ll let my transplant team know it wasn’t new lungs I needed, and three people’s worth of blood and six months in ICU and three weeks on ECMO, it was just light I was lacking… silly me!

Ok, but it IS while these protests have been going on unless they’re trying to arrest people for future protesting under changed laws

Y'all need to look into some of the less boring fields of philosophy, plenty of philosophy says physical pleasure is good and we should be having and enjoying it!

I have cystic fibrosis, it’s a genetic disease and my lungs are (were, I got a new set) especially impacted, I thought COVID could possibly change the world for the better for people like me, improved access via remote work or telehealth etc. that people would be more reasonable and understanding to those with lung disease, that the medical sector would start looking more heavily into lung health, lung rehabilitation, the issues around lung disease and immune-disregulation etc. but really very little has happened and there’s been no significant permanent changes and people chose to keep denying illness and disability exist… I think the virus of the trump presidency running through the US will have the same negative effect where a lot of people die and not much else happens

Those people don’t want crypto or they would do just that

Ok what even is “the fediverse” and why is it called that?

I’m here to waste time, like I’d imagine most of us are
