- Comment on A handful of people are slowly killing over 8 billion people, but we're expected to sit idly by and let it happen 2 weeks ago:
That handful of people also know how to make an uprising difficult, they realised tiktok was dangerous because people could (and were) using it to inform people about stuff behind the veil they’ve constructed using their media monopolisation. People were showing war zones atrocities in real time, conflicting with the handfuls narrative, so they hostile takovered it, like the do everything else they want to use to serve their narrative and further their interests. There’s power in boycotting, and block lists, but when they monopolise and cause manufactured high cost of living to force you to give them your money (serve them in slavery) it’s pretty hard to boycott. I often switch between two daydreams, one where I Thanos them out of existence, and the other where us 8 billion people combine to form “people of the earth” Chuck in a dollar each and systematically buy up all our politicians so they serve us again. Then we all collectively buy everything and share it, so everyone has the basics to be able to live comfortably. Every billionaire is unethical. They’re the ones causing destruction of our planet. We kinda need that! If it’s not prolonging fossil fuel use and mining, it’s creating “ai” that burns triple the power of the whole UK in one data centre. Like fuck!
Side note ai is tripping me out, a little. There doesn’t seem to be the costs associated with the levels of usage costs it generates, it’s also super not capable of what they’re trying to use it for, are they all just super fucking stupid, or is there some nefarious under plot going on?

People of science understand, without the parables, because they have the working and “book” knowledge to interpret the relative meaning of the presented data. To communicate the meaning relative data, without the background knowledge, and without taking the time to learn (or even package for small, focused learning) it is easier to understand, if put into a relative comparable, with similar, relative distance, or changes. Especially when people are already overloaded with *gestures towards everything. The way to eat an elephant, small bites. It’s an elephant to people without all that back knowledge or ability to interpret the science, so you gotta break it into small bites for them, using your understanding.

Yeah! Same! I say that all the time. Although the cringe policing wasn’t as hard core before days of constant public documentation of all of the things. You kinda just drifted away from people who were cringe, and they had to figure it out without anything being spelled out for them. At least kids nowadays have a very complex and comprehensive guide to follow. Kinda. I’m still glad I’m pre, all of that.

Omfg! Same!

How boring would you be if you didn’t have some cringe stories! They prove you really lived life to the full. You can’t get 100% correct in a fallible meat suit and the fickle, gatekeepy, hot or not, societal mind.
- Comment on Wood heater pollution is a silent killer. Here's where the smoke is worst 5 weeks ago:
You go and collect your own wood? From land you own? Is it sustainably sourced? I don’t know where you live but it’s a few hundred a ton, here, now and has been for about 10 years.

Yeah he did that on purpose.
- Comment on What would remain for a future species if humans were to vanish tomorrow? 1 month ago:
I vaguely remember there being a doco on what would happen to the earth if people disappeared. I remember it showed the cities getting all grown over, but it stopped and talked about each stage and what would happen.

I think the real question is, HOW DO THEY KNOW WHAT HE WAS THINKING! HOW!
- Comment on Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct 2 months ago:
Yay capitalism! Perfect reasoning not to feel bad lying on a resume.
