I don’t use Facebook so I don’t know -

Why can’t you just have a group text with your family.

The psychological ramifications of that are immense. It would destroy people. It would be no different than any other drug.

I just deleted doordash entirely. Shit is too expensive and I am too obese.

We were not prepared, as a species, for a device that let us come up with any opinion at all and find validation for it.

It used to be that when you had an opinion that was wrong, you’d say it out loud a number of times, and you’d notice that everyone around you would call you an imbecile and ridicule you. It would make you reassess yourself and grow as a person.

Now that societal failsafe is gone. Now people just aren’t challenged for holding the wrong opinion.

That was an integral part of growing up and maturing. We don’t have a solution for it.

Nah sorry. We are past that. Every company that provides good, affordable products causes more damage to the environment than we ever will.

We depend on elected officials to prevent this problem for us. We have organizations who’s specific job is to do this for us. See But now they are all in the pocket of the polluters.

We lost. It’s over. It’s never going back. Just enjoy your life while you’re here. Humans are shit. Have a drink and go to bed.

Average police officer salary in the US is 60k.

Do you know the average salary in the US? Also 60k.

Wouldn’t you rather have an average job instead of an “I could be killed today” job? We all would.

And so the only people that actually want to take average salary at the risk of death are people that are power-hungry and murder-hungry.

You aren’t gonna get better training at this salary level. You aren’t going to get a system that pays Walmart Manager salary that also has some rigorous hiring and training process that teaches you how to make split second life or death decisions.

This isn’t the secret service. It’s Walmart Managers with guns.

Nope just water water. You get better at it and start to know how much time you have to spray before it’s all clean.

That’s because I Google this question every day and reply to all of them.

Bidet attachments for your toilet are about $30 and you can install it yourself with zero skills in 30 minutes.

Wouldn’t you pay $30 to never have to wipe shit again? Just dry off and that’s it. Greatest thing imaginable.

Have you tried the .ics download method?

I thought that the OS would see the ics file and automatically know to open your calendar app to deal with it.

Yeah the very top post on hot right now has 9 comments lmao.

There is no one here. I mean I love the platform and the apps. I don’t go to Reddit anymore on my phone. But there’s no one here.

If I don’t go to Reddit at least once per day I’m going to miss news and events that are important to me.

And your gas and car wear and tear

What I’ve heard is that it prevents “tyranny of the majority”, whereby the majority would just get their way 100% of the time.

I know that sounds like exactly what should happen, but I think the thought is that sometimes the majority does not vote in the country’s best interest.

As an exaggerated example, say there is some budget concern that would allocate all money to urban business and zero to rural. Depriving rural business like farms of this funding would cripple the country’s food reserves. But the majority live in urban environments, so they’d vote selfishly and fuck up the country. So rural voters are given more power to balance it out.

Now in my opinion - I don’t care about any of that. And I think if the majority votes one way and fucks up the country, so be it. Gotta learn to vote in the country’s interest and not your own.

My first thought

It’s difficult to figure out what to do when copies of your particular niche community exist in 5 different places, all with very similar subscriber counts.

Yeah it’s crazy how corporations just extort you when the alternative is death.

Umm I can’t actually remember. I think it’s something like 1-5 years.

I just got the rabies series of vaccines.

Bill was $9800. After insurance it was $285.
