Corpos consolidating power and buying off politicians are killing this planet. Policies/laws kill the planet. Individual responsibility is a farce. Do what you love. Be Happy.
I’d just amend that to do what you can. Yeah, you’re not going to change the world, but you can have a small, positive impact.
Well, you can change the world, you just need to adjust things a little.
Absolutely. In your community, in your garden, in your daily interactions.
I see we’re on the same page. It’s a matter of scopes I guess.

There is a difference between what is necessary and what is sufficient.
It is necessary for us to stop buying meat to curb the climate catastrophe.
Not in my opinion. If beef cost as much as it should it would naturally become a much smaller part of everyone’s diet; however, the policies and the lobbying I was referencing in original comment keep it exploitative and artifically cheap.
Both are necessary. Neither is sufficient.
lol if you say so I guess

First it’s cigarettes. Ok, fine.
Then it’s eggs/red meat. Um…
Then it’s alcohol at any amount. Hey!
Microplastics in my balls. Um…
You sure as shit ain’t giving us cost of living increases (minimum), meds that don’t have like 50 crazy (and debilitating, if not fatal) side effects, and everyone frowns on suicide as an answer. You gotta give us something! 😢
Just let people enjoy their testicular microplastic in peace, jesus!
The 3D printing community needs to step up and popularize printing using ball plastic as a means of recycling/reuse.
There are enough transfemmes who could harvest their own, no grim death shit required.
I hate how many music artists I’ve found and loved only to find the people behind the music are complete shitbags. Just to name a few that have been on my mind lately:
- Dance Gavin Dance
- Crystal Castles
- P. Diddy, of course, but nobody knew he was a shitbag until recently.
Aw man. I’m guessing the main thing with DGD from brief reading is Tillian Pearson being a rapist (or just rapey?). I’m not big into DGD but I’m sad to learn the one song in my rotation is one of his. 2013-2024 membership
I’ll tack on that the singer of Highly Suspect (Johnny Stevens) was a low blow to me. I liked his voice and bluesy hard rock sound. I guess he’s not rapey-bad, but seems pretty emotionally abusive to women. I found the group while I was in a sad time and the lyrics felt right, but now, in light of his twitter blowups, the lyrics feel so one-sided. He thinks they’d happily drive each other to suicide, she thinks it was just him. Fucked up part to me, the reveal happened before releasing Champagne At Our Funeral
Yeah, artists who do terrible things or support bad causes are always a bummer. I really liked the band Haim, who just put out a new record. But I got suspicious to check and sure enough, their whole family is extremely Zionist, they just keep somewhat quiet about it.
Crystal Castles was a real blow too, and scary\sad how long predators like Ethan or Dr. Luke can thrive in the music industry.
We don’t pay artists in money, but we can pay them in children.
“Find what you love and let it kill you” –not Charles Bukowski, see below (edited)
I’ve read a lot of Bukowski and found it odd that I didn’t remember this particular turn of phrase. Turns out, this is a misattribution according to ther Quote Investigator: https://quoteinvestigator.com/2014/05/29/find-love/
Good sleuthing. I can see why someone would think it’s Bukowski.
Right? It really has that feel to it
