  • I ran into a litter of wild turkey chicks a few months ago and it was such a contrast to how little ducklings group together and line up to follow mom. The turkey chicks scatter every which way instead.

  • Regular coffee/espresso does nothing good to my body except make me poop immediately.

    BUT my old school had a vending coffee machine that would sometimes break and only put out the coffee sludge with no water and THAT stuff made my hands shake

  • I forget the title but there’s a sci-fi story where there’s a galactic council between sentient creatures but they don’t invite newly discovered sentient species to the council until they survive the milestone where most sentient species nuke themselves out of existence

  • Worth noting that you’re going to have a lot more Zionists in Israel than in the general population.

    At least 1/3 of the protesters that show up for Palestine in my woods are Jewish Voices for Peace folks.

    Israel is an antisemitic project.

  • Anarchist here. I don’t think there’s a one size fits all answer to this— in some adequately rural towns you can have a real impact engaging in local politics.

    In most mid-size cities working in local government will feel like pulling teeth and you won’t be able to accomplish anything you want to. You will also be working alongside people who want to be career politicians.

    Personally I think your energy is usually better spent organizing to address local issues directly. Even if you start small (filling potholes or cleaning up a park) I feel community work often snowballs in a positive direction because accomplishing small things can help remind people that they can just take responsibility for things they want to see changed. Conventional politics seems to lean towards the idea that you’re outsourcing your responsibility at the ballot box, which would be excellent if representatives actually shouldered your responsibilities, but they usually do not (and probably could not) and we end up with a sort of responsibility vacuum where things are bad and no one feels personal responsibility to fix them.

    Amazon's system marked an item I returned a year ago as not received and charged me for this return, but the chat bot already knew they had received it.
