I am out of the loop, what are you referring to?

No, we are not over capacity for survival. We waste a ton of water on stuff we don’t need, like having lawns in the desert or choosing to grow almonds during droughts when people have to ration water usage at home. . Top soil is the same, we could, collectively, switch from beef and to a lesser extent pork to focus on much more efficient chicken, thus freeing a lot of land used to feed livestock.

Stop this Malthusian nonsense, we have enough resources for everyone. They are just severely mismanaged to the point of killing us all. We could live sustainably if we wanted to, we just choose not to.

No, they are. Everything that lies outside of my narrow-minded and ignorant view of how attraction should work is bad and you should be ashamed!

Even if most every day people would lower their carbon footprint as much as possible, corporations would simply say “Neat, we can pollute more, we’re within target emissions”, and they would

Everything ends, nothing matters. Be happy for the little things and don’t screw it up for others

Fair enough, I can’t argue with that. Language shifts and evolves I suppose, but it still seems problematic to me that the people (not you specifically) change the way they speak to suit an algorithm and not the other way around.

And that’s not even mentioning the fact that many people are perfectly alright with using “unalive” and “delete” instead of “kill” or “die” but can’t bring themselves to use trans inclusive language, for example. Again, not refering to you with this, you were just the unfortunate person to receive my albeit unwanted rant.

Why say “deleting yourself”? Are we really going to censor our speech here too? There’s no advertisers to spook by saying killing or committing suicide

It depends on your artist. Mine was very friendly and we were chatting about life and society when I got mine, he was fun to talk to. However, some artists prefer to work in silence, others might want you to talk but won’t themselves, it depends. To me the experience was much better than any meeting I’ve been to, despite the needles

Actually, it’s summering right now. Falling will take place in a month and a half

You don’t get it! Pizzagate wasn’t about our side like the Epstein files are!! /s

They’re talking about the c-suites who make the decision to call everyone back to office, I presume

I’ve lived my entire life in commie blocks and unless my neighbours were renovating I had no issue with noise. However, new apartment building here do have that problem, and it is very noticeable, so maybe the issue isn’t with the concept of an apartment by itself, just the materials used in building them. Commie blocks are thick concrete and rebar.

Yup, there’s plenty of time to have fun if you don’t have to manage lil’ ones. Not saying people who want kids shouldn’t get them, but moreso that people who don’t necessarily want them and just see it as something people have to do should consider a childless lifestyle. It’s better for everyone that way.

Oh, that’s very interesting. Where I live there are only upper speed limits on most roads except highways. On other roads you can drive as slowly as you want, though everyone will overtake you if they can or honk at you if you don’t.

I’ve never understood why people pick on drivers under the speed limit. It’s called a limit, why do we expect people to be over it?

It’s a weird coincidence how ofter this happens with kids and French teachers. I know at least 3 other people who have been through similar stuff and it happened to me too and we’ve all been to different schools

And also planned obsolescence

And gave them windows. Trump doesn’t even give his victims that much

Can someone explain to me in layman’s terms why this is the most efficient way?

There are many reasons to dislike the communist regimes in Eastern Europe, but these tenements are not it. Quite a lot of people prefer to buy these sorts of apartments over newer ones simply because they are built better. Keep in mind that those in these sorts of pictures haven’t been properly maintained in years. They are 40-50 years old, it’s normal for any building that has not been taken care of to look worn down - but if the owners of these apartments put in the effort to modernise their buildings, they are very comfortable. I live in one and it’s great!
