I feel like we should absolutely be providing congressional dormitories, at a minimum.

At least that would illicit a reaction out of the masses; that's exactly why these authoritarians aim to slowly strangle our safety nets. We will apparently happily let them do it, as long as it doesn't cause us immediate and perceivable harm.

There's a huge issue with that, though, that seems all too often overlooked: by doing nothing, our systems will still fall behind. They will continue to decay, to lag increasingly behind our peers and adversaries. At absolute best, the inevitable death of 1,000 cuts marches on.

Yeah that is fucking gross.

Sure, it's a solved problem, but is it a profitable problem?

Casual FS2020 enjoyer here, what changes have you the most excited for 2024?

You're entitled to your judgemental opinions, but singling out OF creators reeks of big incel energy.

My dude our existence as we know it is wholly dependent on this capitalist system, which is built on exploitation, from top to bottom. Save your judgement for the bourgeoisie enforcing it, not the people just trying to survive in it.

"Mansplaining isn't real, but quick sidenote here is how the black community should have handled their outrage if they wanted to be more effective."

Bruh.

By the way, the entire point was to explicitly point out that BLACK lives matter, because they are systematically treated as if they do not, and BLM was an attempt to force people to come to terms with that fact. "All lives matter" is a hollow, whitewashed response that gave racists a shield to hide behind, allowing them to pretend like they cared about "all" lives, but really from its inception all it meant was "White lives matter." Co-opting that slogan would have just allowed everyone to brush the conversation under the rug even more quickly than they did.

Regardless of your personal experience, they are both very potent. Personally, the most gnarly, off-the-rails trips I've ever had were thanks to shrooms. LSD has been much more consistent for me.

They probably received a damning statement from the couch.

lmao spoken like someone whose only concern is their brand. Unsurprising, but still gross.

Official. Act.

We are so fucked.

There are 9 different essential amino acids, and foods that contain all of them are considered "complete" proteins; like poultry, fish, eggs, dairy, and quinoa. If chickpeas are your only source of protein, you won't be getting all of your essential amino acids.

The real problem is that big media (and therefore the prevailing narratives) are all controlled by the authoritarian corporate establishment.

Could you point me in the direction of some source/further reading? I would love to have something substantive to share next time I get shamed for my lifelong struggle to become a morning person.

I'd kind of been itching to revisit Skyrim after all these years; VR could be the way to go. Mind sharing what you'd consider the best VR mods?
