i like what you are saying, just a few modifications I would make:
-Water control and regulation should be based on watersheds. all organizations operating in a given watershed are beholden to the laws of that watersheds own regulator. this would allow for actual management of the resource and protection from exploitation.
-there would need to be a strong incentive to work together with other municipalities and not be antagonistic. I am unsure what that would look like, but when you reduce central power, smaller powers can attempt to oppress others more easily.

Possibly but if it was, they were repeating the calls their masters (the elder things) made before they were overthrown by the shoggoths.

Tekeli-li is the call of the elder things.it has nothing to do with Cthulhu. Stupid AI

Believe it or not, I am with you. It’s so annoying to listen to people’s stories and hear their difficulties in an empathetic way.
I wish we didn’t need to hear about it every waking second for people to get it through their skulls that people can live different lives and it doesn’t hurt anyone. Talking about it all the time, the pride parades, the talks about acceptance is all transitional. Once there is widespread acceptance in general, there will be no need for that sort of thing, as they would no longer be an oppressed group. Then you will hear about it as often as people bring up Jesus, or sportsball or anything else that people devote their entire personality to in a really annoying way.

We learned a lot of lessons from the first one. Here’s hoping we don’t make the same mistakes.

Thank you. Not everything in life is an asset to be leveraged to prop up your own position above those around you.
This psychotic way of thinking has led us to this sorry state. And I don’t just mean the USA.

I brought 3 cats to the USA from Thailand, with little problem. There was a bunch of tests and paperwork, but compared to human visa and such, it was easy. Idk where you got the idea that it’s not legal to bring pets…?
- Comment on I'm Tired of Pretending Tech is Making the World Better 5 weeks ago:
The dissatisfaction is in regards to the imperative that you use all forms of tech in all aspects of your life. It is with the fact that all tech is designed around making money, not improving life. If your video games were designed around bringing joy and entertainment, then you would probably like them even more, and get more benefit from them. Instead there are loot boxes and gambling in nearly all large games.

This is the problem with capitalism. What a sick world view.

It’s a bit strong to call it selling out. They are fucked already. Like their entire country will likely have to evacuate within the century. I’m not certain about this country but others are building a gov fund to help pay for that. Anything to help really. It’s not like this is the thing that is going to really cement bitcoins. The ship has sailed.

At least the last years of humanity will be SPICY!
At this point, WW3 can only help the planet. Kill us all quickly to prevent us from destroying the planet any further. Fuck it, guys. Why not?
We are so far behind on even the illusion of progress on climate and this fiasco is only rocketing us away from it.

So a few years ago I was backpacking in Thailand and I met this very nice local girl during the Song Kran festival (country wide water fight in the streets to wash away evils for the new year) and I ended up going back to her house where she lived with her aunt. Looked exactly like that. Toilet flushed with a bucket that you also used to wash your ass. Bed was a thin mattress on concrete. Cockroaches ran around while you slept. They had just enough to get by, but they shared it with me.
Now she’s my wife and lives here in the USA and I gotta say, I miss that little shack. Would be nicer than this shit hole country, at this point.

He has never founded or invented anything. Every business he owns, he bought from others. In some cases he forced them to refrain from claiming to be founders at all. He’s pathetic scum.
