If it's on or near my plate I'm gonna try and eat it. It's called finger food for a reason.

My hands are fuckin awesome. Sign me up

True, if they're young. At some point you are accountable for the contents of your own brain.

I'm not saying it's easy. I'm not saying it's safe. I am saying the unexamined life is not worth living.

Ah yes, the coloring company, crow-la

costs too much

Various trade wars are changing those economics.

You need to tweak your bot. It's replying to the wrong thread with unrelated nonsense.

the zombies would need to talk more than just grunting.

The grunting is just media propaganda so the general public see the zombies as feral.

About fifteen seconds, since that's how often my kids ask me for stuff.

Does it really work? Asking for a friend.

It's me. I'm the friend.

And we certainly don't do THAT anymore.

If NK was oil rich and off the coast of the US, we'd colonialism the shit out of it.

It's not because the world is now too enlightened for colonialism. It's because the juice isn't worth the squeeze. NK has nothing of value, and China wants it to stay there as a buffer to SK.

You think this is about RTO? He knows they'll quit. That's the point. You don't pay severance to quitters. Anyone that's truly critical to the company will somehow get an exception.

moved across the state and most have said they are quitting.

Let me fix this for you: "genius CEO stealthily does layoffs by convincing people to quit on their own. Hires cheaper replacements"

Don't quit. Make them fire you. Work a second job while you wait. Fuck em.

If you distrust someone because of their religious beliefs, you're probably a bad person.

Wait.. why? Why is it bad to distrust someone who believes in an invisible friend who grants wishes well into their 30s?

I mean .. it's not exactly labeled, is it? You just going to put random powder into your body? I can't imagine a world where that's not a death sentence.

You are struggling with the circle of concern. You're spending time worrying about things that concern you but that you can't change. You will feel better if you focus on things you can directly control or things you can influence.

So look more local. DO something positive in your community. It will help you feel grounded and effective.

I go to local protests, donate to the local food bank, etc. Even just showing up with intent feels positive. Heck, go to the library. Showing up helps their numbers and helps their funding.

What is Nebula? Is it literally just a YouTube alternative, or is there more to it? I did some googling and couldn't find much. But they do seem to have a few creators I like.

Meh. Every culture has a variation of "stuff stuffed in dough". Pierogi are just ravioli which are just samosas.

you end up paying more the more money you have.

No, you pay the more you spend. This incentivizes hoarding wealth in investments.

Flat taxes are regressive. The poor pay a much larger percentage of their disposable income because necessities are a larger percentage of their income.

If someone makes $1k a month and it costs $1k a month to live, how is it fair that we charge them the same amount of tax as someone who makes $2k and spends $1k to live? We're forcing that first person to suffer so the second person can hoard.
