You’re right about the leather processing. I didn’t consider that.
I heard there’s a new mushroom-based leather alternative that will hopefully get traction.

I’ll say many cities have a club that rents out supplies or even has club hives you can use to get started. Also, I don’t live in a huge city and I’ve seen used hives and frames for sale more than I thought I would, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for those as well.

Here’s my weird question: if faux leather is plastic and someone is vegan for environmental reasons, would leather be preferable? What if it’s a byproduct and would otherwise be trashed? These are things I think about as someone who tries to reduce my impact on the environment as much as I feasibly can in a capitalist society.

I feel so kindred with the way you see things. You’re making an observation and you’re curious about the “why” of everything. I feel people often read my similar interest in a topic as critical. Kind of like how bluntness can be perceived as rude, I guess. Does that ever happen to you?

- Comment on Justice Department considering push for historic break up of Google after landmark antitrust ruling: report 2 months ago:
Will this work out for consumers if other tech giants like Apple, Microsoft, or Amazon, etc. aren’t also broken up simultaneously? Won’t Google’s assets just get sucked up into another existing monopoly and we’ll be right back where we were but with one less choice than before?
I’m genuinely curious.
- Comment on CrowdStrike downtime apparently caused by update that replaced a file with 42kb of zeroes 3 months ago:
All the more reason for companies to ignore security until they’re affected personally. The companies I’ve worked for barely ever invested in future cost-savings.

Just one nitpick – usually one can swap out batteries and continue to use the tool.

Regarding freedom of speech, banning TikTok is not the government oppressing your rights to say things.

And before the decade-long process of today, even the legal immigrants had it way easier.
Want to be an American? Great*, get on a boat, avoid icebergs, get off the boat at a port of entry, and talk to someone who will misspell your name.
^* Experiences may vary based on the foreign scapegoat at the time.

Why does anyone do anything?
I’m not into it but it seems pretty inevitable given its proximity to nerve endings and such. Who cares what people do to their own selves? I imagine most would be using lube and only sizing up after they feel confident with their current diameter.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As someone who takes prescribed ketamine on the regular, it blows my mind that he can still hold the shit opinions he has. I only ever feel more connected to everyone and more present with the small joys around me.

Even if this were true, I’d vote for a banana peel over Trump because at least the banana peel won’t do anything to dismantle election integrity.

Ok but most of this can be solved by going to literally any co-working space.
And as far as getting to know coworkers–wouldn’t you rather pick your friends from people you can choose to be around?
Sorry don’t take my spicy opinion personally. I think I’ve read too many dumbass return-to-office mandates that use stuff like your preference as leverage. Obviously, it’s not your fault they do that.
