bluesky has done the impossible for a new social media site and attracted libs just as annoying and smarmy as on twitter

i'm not 100% of the time but i eat meat very occasionally, don't drink milk and only eat "nice" eggs (probably not much better than factory-farmed but i'm planning on getting chickens within a year). i don't think animal agriculture is fundamentally immoral but the industrialized system we currently have is abhorrent morally and environmentally. growing enough meat for westerners to eat it daily is unsustainable

But they’d need the president’s cooperation.

you could push the fucker down a flight of stairs and everyone would believe it was an accident

his first response included the phrase "no wrongdoing was found" which is possibly the most incriminating thing you could say

none of the liberals who (rightfully) complained about Trump's violent rhetoric being reflected in real-world hate crimes seem fazed by Biden's support of war crimes against Palestinians

i have a deep hatred for cattle ranching and the people that do it. cattle grazing is incredibly destructive alone, not including the elimination of predator species like wolves that wrought havoc on Yellowstone. all so Americans can eat an unholy amount of beef

 

as an aside in the latest Trillbillies episode Terrence said that we need degrowth communism and it got me wondering what that means to everyone. to hopefully stifle any silly debates i'll clarify that i'm talking about the West, not underdeveloped/overexploited nations in the Global South.

an end to oil drilling, gas extraction, and coal mining will obviously be necessary to stop climate change. how much modern technology can we replicate without relying on those things or other ecologically violent resource extraction? what does an agriculture system that doesn't rely on petrochem-derived fertilizers and herbicides look like? how do we repair the immense damage that's already been done?

i'd really appreciate some book recommendations on this topic as well as everyone's thoughts

a technical exploration of an HP laptop's "quick boot" features, ends with an excellent rant about the state of the technology industry that created them

 

it discusses the Synanon cult that was born out of AA, how it related to MKULTRA and 60s psychiatric research, and how it birthed the modern troubled teen industry.

also i finally learned what the fuck Deleuze meant when he talked about rhizomes
