  No, I read what you wrote. I am upset about exactly what you wrote. I want you to listen to trans people and their experience. I want you to realize your experience as a cis person makes your opinions irrelevant on the matter and if you want to be a good ally you need to purge transphobia from the spaces you moderate.

  Why should we engage in good faith on your “ideas” of wanting to fucking murder us with your bigotry? Unironically, the world would be better off without you.

  The reason you need to slow down is because you’re starting on Earth, which means you’re moving fast enough parallel to the sun’s surface that for every foot you fall downwards toward the sun, the sun’s surface curves away by 1 foot. This results in the nearly circular orbit around the sun we exist in.

  If you start speeding up, the orbit becomes more elliptical, except your aphelion starts raising away from the sun because now you’re moving fast enough that you’ve moved more than 1 foot sideways in the time you’ve fell 1 foot downwards.

  Slowing down has the opposite effect. If you get your speed down to 0, you’ll fall straight down toward the sun as normal with gravity. But you don’t need to go all the way down to 0 velocity to enter the sun, you just need to slow down until your elliptical orbits brushes up against the sun’s surface.

  Getting into a hot car’s passenger seat with a friend and their playing on their phone while you’re increasingly suppressing the urge to scream at them to put the keys in the ignition and turn the air conditioner on

  It’s based, actually. So is stealing from businesses. In fact, if piracy were really the same as stealing, I’d definitely make a point of pirating more often

  Tbh, I lose some amount of respect for anyone who mentions they pay for media that is easily accessed through piracy, netflix included

  “Restrict it’s usage” lmao, no. The restrictions on alcohol are not comparable in any universe to the restrictions on illegal drugs that you can literally be put into prison for using.

  It literally does not matter that N2O is not perfectly harmless because nothing is, you absolute rube. There are OTC products massively more dangerous that will never be banned because the demographics that tend to use them aren’t widely maligned by the rich, old pieces of shit in power. That includes alcohol.

  Fuck you if you think your right to not have to smell weed or whatever in public makes it okay to throw people into prison.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nitrous oxide: Laughing gas to be illegal by end of year⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t buy that they are banning it because of people getting high. That makes not one iota of sense while alcohol is still legal and much more harmful to your health.

  This really is just another instance of boomers trying to get one last fuck you in to their children and grandchildren before they walk out the door.

  It says they’ll make exceptions for legitimate uses, I assume that includes making whipped cream. It’ll probably just be much harder to legally get your hands on it unless you run a catering company or restaurant.

  CO2 would cause the cream to sour as a result of it’s acidity, and plain nitrogen isn’t soluble enough, so it makes sense that they’d include it as an exception.

  Breaking the law is actually cool and good. Ideally, I think people should break the law more often, not less often.
