Art doesn't need to know this answer that badly. This fucking guy has taken
dilaudid
morphine
opium
nitrous
pcp
meth
lighter fluid, by huffing
cough syrup at a dose of "two bottles"
I don't even know what a few of these things are, and I'm not going to look up and see how crazy the doses on everything else are, but based on the ones I do know I can only conclude that this guy is trying to kill himself.
We've been at war continuously for the last 20 years, actually. That's not an exaggeration, it's a literal fact about the way post-9/11 America structured the powers of the presidency to declare and then just maintain a state of war.
What a lazy fucking response by this dumbshit. Just an absolute spacetime-warping black hole of creativity, sucking in everything clever and good around him and allowing nothing back out past the event horizon of his ineptitude.
Of course you understand some dog barks, you just don't think about it because humans process language innately, we have specialized brain structures for it.
I'll bet you can recognize "I see a threat" and 'I'm in pain" when you hear them. Maybe even distinguish them from "happy excitement"
Yes, I know all that. The argument I was replying to was that you run out of trees if you use them to make paper without recycling. That argument is false. You're arguing with points I didn't make.
No, this isn’t solved by having a whole forest available when you scale up the consumer side too.
You're seriously underestimating how many trees there are. The only reason we're losing forest is because of grazing land. That's clearcutting, where you remove the tree and just destroy it or just burn the whole forest. As a vegetarian I'm obviously not here to defend grazing land, but if you look only at wood and paper production, we absolutely can replace the trees we use with enough time for them to regrow completely.
Doing so devastates ecosystems by turning them into monocultures, but you're only talking about the replacement rate of trees. We don't have to worry about the replacement rate of trees, we have to worry about greed for land and environmental impact.
This feels tantalizingly close to the truth.
