You can’t speak to power without posting a lot of shit

Thanks for more of the background esp with Canada. Yeah fuck them

This is one of those “idk man I think it depends”. I think the average median person probably should not drive, let alone drink and operate 2 ton vehicles near where people walk. But the law is bs and clearly isn’t nearly effective enough for what the policy it sounds like they advertise for. But on the surface level I’m like 🤷‍♀️ maybe it should be lower, but everything related to the enforcement of the law is so fucked idek

In many states, like NY anything above 0 is illegal. Above 0.08 is criminal.

4 12oz beers is NOT small, be responsible.

Unfortunately it is entirely because of corruption. The government is plundered at every turn by oligarchs, and oligarchs just fly private jets. And currently they actually vehemently dislike the public unless they are a source of financial extraction.

It’s not impossible. I think it’s inevitable but it can happen so so much sooner and faster than people realize it’s just hard to dream about right now when people can’t afford homes or healthy bodies

I have found, perhaps unfortunately, people just talk because they want to talk, and don’t necessarily want to welcome new information. Doesn’t mean you can’t show that you disagree with something they’re saying, like “no, I’m not sure that’s quite right”.

And if they wanna ask why ask first if they really want to learn something new or not. But even just challenging them with “I don’t agree” can be enough of a statement in and of itself and it’s gentle.

When you present why you believe something, never insinuate what you presume they do or do not know, be graceful, humble, and listen to whatever bullshit they say after to defend themselves cause that’s usually just self soothing and doesn’t mean they necessarily believe it either.

Challenging someone’s opinions is socially difficult right now and that’s exhausting for me, but some things just have to be done, in this case being more gracious than is reasonable. Do not “correct” people, just say what is true, and don’t enter a debate, that’s enough most of the time. If someone earnestly wants to learn, just present the information as you know it to be, and let them decide however long it takes.

Another point. You’re not responsible for someone else’s knowledge or lack thereof. It’s actually not really your business what people think and that’s a good thing. The best you can do is be there when someone wants to learn something new, or find people that like to learn as avidly as you do

“Listen”

Niel the Seal is a real life Kaiju. Emerges from the ocean for a few days every year, weighs a full ton (not even fully grown!!!), leaves a trail of destroyed infrastructure behind his rampages, and retreats back to the sea and then comes back bigger

Close enough for them, close enough for me

There’s absolutely something to this, in that religions that enforce hierarchies are going to be more attractive to people who desire hierarchies (befitting from them or not). There’s no form in which you can be a billionaire without believing in hierarchy because it’s about as peak of human power as you can get

They had to let him go because quote “there were no laws”

omggggg best gender reveal I’ve seen in a minute

Kindly, women get shit on for everything they do why do you them wearing something outrageous is any different. Maybe the answer you’re looking for, is that this example you’re imagining she doesn’t sound bothered by the judgement of others, and you can do this too! But it starts by hushing that social cop of yours trying to be upset at how others are living, you’re killing a part of yourself every time you do, and it’s (for the most part) entirely optional, but it isn’t always easy because you’re taught to do this and it takes time and effort to undo. But you gotta start somewhere so maybe even in your mind every once in a while wear your high strung thong out in public boy you got this!

That’s somehow worse

Them data centers are loud enough for all of us 😆

No, but the *token “phrases” would be similar and reinforced by the model, so understanding isnt pertinent in this case
