This dude is here thinking that mass human psychology and politics is a fucking equation for a jet propulsion engine.

How does this even happen?

I read this a few times and I just think you wanted a reason to use words like praxis, bourgeoisie, and whatever "dimuintize" is.

I am arguing that he has likely been divorced from reality since an early age. Admittedly, his childhood seems to be the cause of a lot of unsubstantiated claims - from his father owning an emerald mine, to his family owning the biggest mansion in their corner of South Africa. However, I think wealth is entirely subjective and circumstantial. Owning a mansion or even a plane of any kind in the 70s and 80s in South Africa is going to divorce you from reality, especially in the sociopolitical climate of South Africa back then.

Maybe with one of those Boring Company flamethrowers!

I don’t think he forgot, I’m sure his advisers told him that’s not going to work.

They’re all from growing up extremely wealthy and white (and maybe an abusive father.)

I’ve never met a conservative who’s into solving climate change, so I’ll give him credit on that. The whole freedom of speech thing I think is his annoyance at having to moderate what he says. It’s like he thinks freedom of speech will allow him to say the teenage idiocy he’ll say without consequences.

I don’t have a horse in this race but I feel like #4 and #5 is just going to be work for you to validate.

WSJ says they’ll likely accept the offer now. Fiduciary duty sure is a bitch

That’s a healthy margin, albeit still depressingly closer than it has any right to be. Fuck you Le Pen, fuck you Putin.

But what’s the vegan option?

Yeah I get that… but he looks like death, each and every time he’s shown up on camera lately.

I don’t think that matters. A joke about non-consensual sexual assault vs. some dude just goofing off harmlessly. And I say this as someone who abhors everything Cawthorn represents.

The soundtrack to this predicament:

But on the other side crypto got a lot of donations quickly to Ukraine. but yes, still sucks

Exclusive: Madison Cawthorn photos reveal him wearing women’s lingerie in public setting - POLITICO WWW.POLITICO.COM The embattled congressman has outraged Republican colleagues with accusations of orgies and drug use.

Good response for that cereal or milk coming first thread.

Or embarrassed because he sharted himself and any movement will give up his act of shame.

Me five, though I actually am dubious of my own claim. My two kids and wife have all tested positive for it and had symptoms (the youngest had stronger ones). I consistently tested negative. I felt a little tired for one half of a day before they all tested positive.

Thank god this isn't a ploy to get Elon Musk involved

I don’t use milk if I have cereal so I’ll just see myself out

Curtailing future emissions is part of a very large and multi-faceted climate change equation. Efforts to clean current emissions (and there's a lot of various efforts going towards this today) will ultimately be futile if we don't also lessen future emissions. Both have to happen. Arguing which one is more important doesn't really matter to a discussion here. We aren't the ones prioritizing funds to go towards solving different aspects of this equation. But it goes back to the point that what can we as individuals do? We can't clean up current emissions for shit. However, we do have power in lessening future emissions. And baby footsteps we take today will feel like a drop in an ocean, sure, but it's about creating a culture of accountability around this issue for future generations. Also, this reminds me of this great series from Kurzgesagst:

This is absolutely fascinating. Hell I remember cartoons for our generation still talked about it as a common thing. I believe there’s a whole episode of Rugrats where one kid gets it and the parents bring all the other kids together so they can get it too.

Another point which hasn’t been brought up here with mass meat consumption is that by far the majority use of antibiotics comes from this industry - not from doctors being liberal in prescribing antibiotics these days. If a super antibiotic resistant bug scares you, then your focus should be on how insanely rampant this practice is in meat production. Pump animals (and not just beef here but also poultry) with antibiotics to get them to grow faster and larger? Profit
