It does for me too but I haven’t concluded it’s the optimal outcome

Valhalla only sounds like a nice place to go because I’ve played Skyrim

Let’s face it though: it’s probably a bit of a shit place to be what with all the fighting types of neuroses getting together makes for some shit energy to spend an eternity around

I have to grapple with where I stand with prostitution.

On one hand legalising prostitution probably prevents higher incidence of sexual violence because at least the “horny” component underpinning sexual violence has been dealt with safely

On the other hand, it’s sad to see people get strung along in these arrangements where it clearly looks like they’re being taken advantage of. (Emotionally lead on to believe they have something special)

However it may be “sad” to us the observers; but maybe this illusion is the best some of these people could hope for.

Spending less money on fast fashion and bullshit could actually be a good thing

Cancers just one or those bad ROI things

Like you’ve got enough money surely you’d have solved cancer by now?

Sometimes you need to “I dunno” totally slash the funding to stimulate the industry a bit you know?

Up the experiments, swirl more chemicals in your chemistry set and get us results!

It’s like arguing with someone who goes into specifics and then overtime pulls them back.

“I only have a problem with hispanic, illegal, transgender immigrants”

“I only have a problem with immigrants”

“I only have a problem with you”

No fucking way this is real

Think about it, if I was gay, voted republican and sees this regression to pre gay times , I would sure as shit be too embarrassed to say anything and there’s no way I’d post about it

If I actually voted for someone and regretted it, I wouldn’t tell anyone, I’d just have to swallow that one up and feel like shit for the next few years.

So I’m left wondering if people who films themselves saying it actually mean it or are they trolling. Remember the whole conversatice spiel is that “it’s all a joke” and they’re all just “trolling”?

Like they’re not really going to deport all the Hispanics or they’re not really going to annex Canada, Panama Canal and Greenland or they’re not really going to leave Ukraine hanging like that or they’re not really going to launch a trade war with everyone or they’re not really going to dismantle all social services and federal government or they’re not really going to start doing dictator things

Like it’s all just a joke, so you should just chill you “transgender libtards”

I’ve been really interested in learning how to grow vegetables in my back garden. Somehow I just have this feeling that learning how to care about plants to make food (and not just because it flowers and looks pretty) will open my eyes to thinking about nature and the environment

At the moment, climate collapse is a conceptual issue to me in that “sure the days get warmer every year but it’s actually quite nice for me right now”, but I’m not as in tune with my environment to really notice how it’s impacting us.

Growing veg also feels like it has a higher pay off than just the cost price of a single unit of veg. There’s probably some nutritional benefit to it, knowledge etc that does beyond the price of buying an onion from the shop. I think getting in touch with this principle is the key to getting out of the ruthless capitalism structure

Basically, if we all just stopped buying shit and learnt how to fix and make shit ourselves our experiences of the things we attach ourselves to would be so much more authentic

You don’t have to buy doc martens because you feel like a rebel.

So much space junk….

People can spend their money on whatever they like and invest in whatever they choose. I’ve always taken a position that I want to invest in things that make sense to me and ideally something that would improve the world in some way
