May this man rot in hell, and may people like him who are still around live in agony and loneliness.

I would love to see this data if you’re willing to do the research again! Much more likely to trust you, a slrpnk fellow, than Woody Harrelson

I think he’s right. We should all change to a 100% Billionaire diet…

Oooh thanks a ton Gunther!! I’ve been experimenting a little with the wine bottle method since I can’t bear to part with pretty bottles anyway but I love the sound of that Blumat dripper.

This is pretty cool, thanks!

The connections we have with individual people, as individuals, are world-changing. Think small. Don’t think about fixing the world, think about fixing things for your loved ones, your local community, your town, etc.

There’s an idea I read about recently in Emergent Strategy by adrienne maree brown which says to consider a flock of starlings, wheeling and swooping above a field. There is no leader; each starling acts only in accordance with the starlings that are nearby, yet all together they create a beautiful, intricate, coordinated pattern.

Be a starling and act according to your nearby starlings. Change is made by a thousand small actions, a thousand small starlings becoming a whole flock. I don 't think I’m doing the idea justice here, but it’s brought me a lot of comfort <3

I imagine actions such as snacking on the bourgeoisie would make the biggest difference, realistically speaking

EDIT: okay I read the article and this is actually pretty cool!! It’s very practical and offers concrete actions for all of us.

In previous work, we showed how inequality constrains many people’s capacity to participate in climate action, whether that’s sustainable investing, protesting, or simply having the resources to make different choices. The same people with the most freedom to act often have the biggest footprints.

This is so cool!! Honestly I’ve always been a “explore the ocean” kind of person as opposed to “explore space” kind of person. It blows my mind sometimes that we’re surrounded by crazy aliens and aren’t thinking about it every hour of every day. Sometimes I go up to my partner and I’m like “do you ever think about how crazy it is that squids are just out there with all their tentacles doing things that are normal for squids but absolutely bonkers from our point of view and we’re just sitting here eating breakfast?” which I recognize probably says something about my neurotypicality or lack thereof.

The consumption of Elon Musk has been proven to be significantly more effective at reducing carbon than eating pork, beef or chicken

What… the fuck? Like… who enforced this? Because a computer by itself can’t do anything, like a robot didn’t burst out of the ceiling and snatch them up. Like. It doesn’t matter what the computer thinks, humans have to carry out the actions… so who the fuck looked at the computer saying “this infant is a terrorist” and went “yeah sounds about right”?

Great time to mention that NOAA is trying to removing vessel speed rules in the US, which is the only effective form of protection we have for right whales. There are so few right whales left that every vessel strike is devastating for the species as a whole. We have a mini baby boom, and we need to protect those babies from being run over by ships!

If you’re in the US and have five minutes please leave a comment in defense of the rule. Right whales have a special place in my heart and it would mean a lot to me personally <3

oh wow :O that’s beautiful!! I would love to visit a place like this (or be part of creating one)

If OP hopes to retire or purchase a home (or farm land) someday, investing is pretty much a necessary part of that. I won’t say it’s true for every case but it’s probably true for OP. Spending all your money isn’t a great long-term financial strat (though the farmstead plan, if someone can somehow afford it without investing, seems pretty damn solid to me)

In the lower right quadrant over the bottom-most yellow mushrooms there seems to be a brown mushroom cap… growing out of another mushroom cap? Or hovering above a disconnected stem? Can a cap sort of grow from another cap? (Genuine question, I know nothing about mushrooms). My friend group would really love this one since they do all kinds of foraging and stuff but I’m not going to subject them to an AI image if I can help it, you know how it is

(Jokes aside, is this image AI generated? It’s hard to tell but it seems like it might be so I don’t want to reshare it…)

I now have the know-how to do something like that, thank you very much! I feel inspired now. Not that I would ever do something illegal of course.

That’s totally okay!! Thanks for sharing so we can celebrate with you :D

yes please minnesota!! The more states that approve it, the more likely that my state will approve it. And I want balcony solar so badly

Like… the sun? Or do you mean deciding where to put the solar panels

that’s incredible!! Mind showing us a pic of your set up?
