You can’t Abstain your way to a Better World.
The Burger still gets made, even if you go Vegan. If you don’t buy it, it just winds up in the trash. If you want to do something meaningful about waste, you need legislation: It must become a crime to waste food in those ways.
If you care about Animal Cruelty in Factory Farms, you need to get legislation passed. It must become a crime to mistreat animals in those ways, and when malfeasances occurs, the onus of responsibility for those crimes must fall upon wealthy shoulders. That, also, requires legislation. It requires regulations, and regulators.
The largest source of Microplastics is wear and tear on automobile tires. It doesn’t matter what brand of shampoo you buy. It doesn’t matter which company you support with your dollar. The issue of Public Transit is too large-scale to be handled at anything less than the municipal level.
It’s not enough to just not participate in society
If you want the world to Change, you must leverage the mechanisms of political power.
You need Government.
STOP PROPOSING INDIVIDUAL SOLUTIONS TO COLLECTIVE PROBLEMS
It's like the goddamnes straws.
the same can be said of Ai, not using it doesnt make it go away. Especially with how much you rely on data centers. You cant abstain from them and hope they dissappear. Actual legislation to force data centers to be environmentally sustainable is the only way anything changes
this actually makes more sense to me than like anything else happening in the world currently. like it blows catastrophically to be sure but it checks out
I dont see theproblem, if it gets more people reading then thats awesome!
I am not ready for prime week next week
here's a funny conversation topic i had a with a friend: if you're over the age of 25, when's the last time you really *ran* in a panic (like you were late, chasing after something, etc. things like a marathon don't count!) and what was it for?
feels so rare now to get a show with normal looking people, widows bay did a really good job at actually doing that
hello smarter people than me, has anyone explained the bell tolls yet?
I think the only deaths that count is when the island gets them in the shelter, since it rung 9 times the first time at the beginning, then it only rung again, 8 times, after the sacrifice in the shelter at the end. None of the other deaths caused by the island being haunted caused the bell to lower how many times it rung
everyone eat more vegetables NOW!!! and mention the last vegetable you ate in the tags so we're all on the buddy system. I'll start: bok choy
Jack’s acting will always set him above and beyond for me.. this moment in the magicians elephant 😭 (and Leo wiping his eyes)

I’m hoping there are some folks out there who have started star trek since I first posted this poll a few years ago!
Shout out to the new fans, you’re welcome, you’re appreciated, you’re keeping the fandom alive 💕
Also, still curious about whether you’d recommend your first star trek series as a starting point to someone else!
P.s. god help you if you started with Picard. Paramount owes you an apology and possibly reparations.
the thing about teenagers is they have a lack of life experience and knowledge to be able to make nore informed decisions, combined with the fact that the current idea is that the brain develops unevenly so that the emotional processing and reward center develops earlier than the prefrontal cortex which is responsible for reasoning and impulse control. So for teens theyve got limited experience, theyre more sensitive to dopamine and thrills and taking risks, and the part that controls impulses is still lagging behind. Which is why teens tend to feel they are unique and have a better chance at avoiding any consequences. But risk taking is also a vital part of development and teaching teens that consequences may happen and how to deal with them
ok poll time because i am genuinely curious about something (and this is not a call out for anyone, that's just me being in my head)
do you answer comments on your fics or do you not (for the specific reason that it "distorts" the actual amount of comments)?
yes i answer comments
no i don't answer comments because of the above
secret third option (put it in the tags)
weird me out? no. you've weirded me in. let's merge souls
i dont care what you’re doing take 1 minute out of your day to watch this you wont regret it YOU NEED SOUND
Pigeons! Some of our oldest friends 💚
the world's smallest carnivore is called the "least weasel" 😭😭 i'm dying but like if it's the smallest carnivore then it sure is the least amount of weasel you can have 😭😭😭
Look at him: this is absolutely the least amount of weasel you can have
To really put it in perspective
Immediately I love him
