What is the point of the label at all?

I never ate at one until I got desperate on a family trip. Downloaded the app, put in the order, and I’m hooked. Delicious food and didn’t have to talk to people. It’s great.

If there’s so many Trans athletes, why don’t they just have a category of their own?

Because there aren’t, and this whole thing is much ado about nothing.

But hey, it keeps the morons distracted and voting, so that’s a plus.

Normal is when the crazy you have doesn’t impact your ability to function in society. So no. Not everyone struggles daily to exist.

No particular order fuckin rocks

Well “be gay do crime” is just solid life advice

This confuses me. You want something without an algorithm… because you used systems before their algorithm kicked in and hated it?

The crap you got was because it didn’t know enough about you to know what you like. Without an algorithm, that’d be your feed forever.

Everyone else gave good advice. Also, if you have a group you support, like the ACLU or the EFF, they often have recommendations.

I don’t think I’m evil enough to go to hell. But if I go to heck, this will definitely be my punishment.

This seems like a good time to get on my soap box.

Every bathroom should have a cheap white noise machine. I don’t need the detailed auditory experience of someone else’s bowels. This would also probably help with OPs problem.

American libertarians hate anarchy and love order. They believe there should be zero government to enforce that order. They also believe they should not be held to any laws.

There’s not a lot of thinking behind those eyes.

Then it’s a windbreaker

Olives killed my family

Oh weird. I’ve never heard that phrase before. Yeah, that wouldn’t be good

Probably autocorrected from dysphoria

People should grow up and take responsibility for their lives.

We SHOULD all get free unicorns too.

But if you actually want to fix the problem, as opposed to just should’ing it, that requires that we see these people as victims. And this means we don’t blame the victim, we help them with their situation.

The wonderful part about the train of thought that you’ve started, is that eventually you realize that people not only need to take responsibility for their own lives, but also need to take responsibility for the society they impose on other people’s lives. And if we’re unhappy with that society, we have to actively do something about it. That is our responsibility. Just as much as it’s our responsibility to fix ourselves.

You get what you pay for

This hasn’t been true since the 70s. Back when the price of an item was dictated by things like material cost and labor.

My wife followed this influencer who was selling an $80 necklace. This influencer had sold hundreds of them. It was from her “personal” style collection. My wife was hoping to find something similar for cheaper so she reverse searched the necklace. She found the exact pendants and chain for sale for pennies. The $80 necklace cost my wife $5 to make, with shipping.

Cost is not an indicator of quality anymore. Things cost whatever the company thinks you’ll pay for them, and not a penny less.

We need an impartial lawnmower. Something external to the species that comes in and cuts the biggest ones in half. And it needs to be incorruptible and powerful enough to do this.

Damn, I think I just invented god again.

I don’t know your experience, but parents have the moral obligation to keep their kids safe and healthy. That sometimes requires that you get your kids to do things they don’t want to do. You can either do this with manipulation or with force. There’s no third option because kids don’t have the proper coping mechanisms to suppress their emotions and do what they’re required to do, even when they don’t want to.

That isn’t to say your parents did the right thing or that they were trying to keep you safe. I don’t know you. Maybe they were abusive. My point is only that manipulation is often the better of two bad options.

I think it’s valid that he chose the #1 food source problem to talk about first. Once we fix that, let’s discuss #2.
