  from what I’ve heard from “genetically modified skeptic” (someone who grew up in an isolated fundamentalist christian community with homeschooling and now has changed and makes youtube videos about his experiences) the indoctrination is so serious and deep that many can’t escape it even as an adult, even with mountains of evidence, even when it would be to their benefit to drop old beliefs, and so i believe it’s not really their fault if they turn out to be hateful and dangerous people. even if they were at fault, i still don’t necessarily want people to die for misguided beliefs. I’m still debating whether that kind of compassion should also work for people like trump, vance, kirk, thiel, musk, etc. but imo it should work for regular religious fanatics.

  you’re right, one can be bought legally and used to even be available on amazon and the other gets you in jail

  if you smoke in a hotel room they can’t sell the room to someone immediately after, they gotta run an ozone generator overnight first

  i thought it was fine with the exception that it seemed to me like some plot was being skipped near the end. it’s good when viewed together with other people though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uhhh... It's a work phone⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  if you use a google pixel with grapheneos, you can have multiple profiles that work similar enough to having multiple phones, with apps in each profile only being able to see what’s happening in that one profile, and if you close a profile every app in that profile is stopped completely

  temperatures have been higher, what hasn’t happened yet is temperatures changing at such speeds

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  there are social octopuses, like the larger pacific striped octopus. imo octopuses had 150 million years to rule the planet and they just weren’t good enough. skill issue. us humans only had 2-4 million years. i’d say we’re doing quite well comparatively.

  those wands are of an adequate size, i promise. actually nobody really needs a wand that’s too long, that would be unreasonable and maybe even painful.

  don’t believe companies when they tell you they don’t want all the money on the planet by any means possible

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨School pickup lines are wild⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In my childhood in Germany kids didn’t need to be picked up or dropped off, we either walked or took public transit (not dedicated school buses either). As far as I can tell that’s still the case where I live. It’s a very different urban design that facilitates it, and it results in more human lives in my opinion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am always prepared to move into this version of life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  as funny as this comment is, do console wars really need to exist? does brand loyalty and basing your identity on the products you consume need to exist?

  i think the rich have seen the avocado toast problem for a long time. that’s why they sell you avocado toast, because clearly it’s making you poor and they have too much of it.

  to be fair what has happened to oblivion is that the game still runs entirely on the old creation engine, but the renderer and all the graphics assets have been swapped for unreal engine. you get old bugs as well as new bugs.

  for the biggest crypto investors it isn’t even really gambling. they use celebrities to hype a memecoin and then rug pull and split the profits harvested from the celebrity’s fans.

  there’s probably some primordial vampire or anti-vampire god going through each case one by one and either letting the vampire come in or not, and it all happens in an instant. i imagine the results would change with the political ideology of said god.
