  Or, alternatively, one might opt to look at the world around them whilst they are using public transportation, instead of solipsistic immersion into a screen.

  I was led to understand that “terminally online” was an undesirable state to exist in.

  I am Jack’s Lungs. I breath in soot and particles and eventually they cause cancer and I kill Jack.

  That’s how that shit works, homes. Not a thing to “idk whatev” about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon questions our energy sector⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok but maybe a counterpoint is we are overestimating the ability of the atmosphere and ocean to absorb CO2 and maintain a habitable planet. I’d rather store isotopes in the earth (where they came from anyway) than carbon in the air.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon questions our energy sector⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  mmmm sounds like someone has zero concept of the scale of the problem: ie how much cable we’d need to bury. Simmer down Tony Snark, you’re demonstrably less clever than the rest of the species’ experts in this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hummingbird Feeders⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I spent 120$ last year on fushias that were ignored

  I caved and got a feeder when it got near freezing and one of them was making a fuss in the tree in my back yard, and it needs refilling every 2 days now, so I guess no accounting for taste…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The food delivery bubble is bursting — and maybe that's not a bad thing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I loathe the line-cutting self-important food delivery hustle bros with every fiber of my being and will never use their service. This is glad news.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon visits Canada⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fair. The armpittines is due to a small percentage of really weird people and their propensity to be simultaneously ignorant and outspoken. Sad that they affect policy and people’s lives.

  The place itself is breathtaking. Though in fairness, I’ve moved from there to Vancouver Island and it’s kind of been eclipsed by a few orders of magnitude.

  Turdonomy AND Turdology, a double threat!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon visits Canada⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hi. Am Canadian, am originally from Alberta, love everyone except fucking fascists, and can confirm Alberta is currently Canada’s stanky armpit and has been so for some time.

  Well as an avowed fan of every voice actor ever, thanks for your work, and now I will forever be speculating on the pitch and timbre you might have delivered.

  Evs make us reliant on lithium

  Oh no! No the third most abundant element in the universe! WTF are we gonna do? Use another metal with a large valency shell that makes it ideal as a dense storage medium for electrons? the horror

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Blanket physics is harder to understand than Calabi-Yau Manifolds⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a great book by Greg Egan called Diaspora that explores the idea that every atom is a Calabai-Yau manifold, and the aperture to a wormhole via Kaluza-Klein handwavery. It’s a bit of a heavy read at times but super interesting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨All billionaires under 30 have inherited their wealth, research finds⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol research. You coulda figured that shit out with a subscription to “Duh weekly”.

  Save it for the C-Z Polis, citizen. I don’t have the shaper to emit tags for a gestalt like this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please Stop⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It would also be popular if the entire crypto landscape wasn’t replete with late stage capitalist-douche tech bros trying to scam literally everyone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please Stop⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You actually make a better case for replacing politicians with benevolent AI than for replacing ballots with transactions on a blockchain.
