Yea my first thought when I saw the news was

“oh no, its exactly what we wanted” -Israel

This hit way too hard. I find it so hard to just enjoy my hobbies because I feel like I’m breaking the rules.

There was an episode of one of those crime shows that revolved around a site like this. Except it was the rapture not individuals dying. Iirc if the owner of the page didn’t check in for 24 hrs it sent all the emails. He got murdered all the emails got sent out and one of them was a murder confession. Weird episode, I wish I could remember which show it was. Feels like a CSI episode

**Did some googling. Law and Order - ‘Rapture’

Did I say anything about pharmaceuticals?

Birthrates are dropping in developed nations. They’ve been low in Europe for years, and America fell behind replacement levels. Personally I think this is a direct response to wealth gaps, living costs, medical costs (at least in the US) and low wages. All of these things are a direct result of capitalism and centralization of wealth and power. So the actual solution is to redistribute wealth, tax the rich, and focus on social programs. But that would be anticapitalist, so instead we invent a fertility crisis.

Everytime I see this graph I focus on the fact that 1 second and 10 months are the same color, but 1 sec and “instant” are different colors.

Like I guess if “instant” is a billionth of a second than it’s a greater difference of magnitudes. However, in reality a second feels like an instant.

Right? She’s weird and skiddish, but she’s such a sweet heart who’s just happy to have a home.

Omg, our new kitten always has this expression. She’s a rescue and has a few quirks. She never looks comfortable or happy. But she loves to get pets and scratches despite looking quite upset.

NGL I tried to figure out what joke you were making for several minutes. Then I finally looked at the second “CEO” my brain skimmed past it like 5 times

In this scenario she really seems to get along with your friends. So you guys would probably hit it off.

100% what I do. Print to pdf and then never go to the site, because they’re so over loaded with ads and pictures that will load and cause the page to bounce around.

I think cheap in this case means inexpensive not poor quality. Hence they’re asking the government to tax it to deter excessive use. Also it said it increased in the last decade. What do the 1900s have to do with anything?
