  I’ve never seen so many women at the skatepark. On quads, inline, and skateboards whatever. Ik its a shit post but I really like skating and I like how inclusive it tends to be these days.

  Women on street league are doing tricks never been done before by women, always pushing the envelope. When I was growing up, my one skater friend was one of like 3 girls compromising the entire scene. Now you can catch 3 at the parks on any given day.

  I mean in terms of effect on population (which is kind of the point), the analogy still holds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US Democracy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of people criticized Dems for exactly this when Harris was appointed after Biden dropped out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US Democracy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree, it’s an oversimplification. The Democratic party has become the party of ‘going back to business as usual’ and refuses to lower it’s commitment to the corporations that fund it. Trump won 2016 because he was a genuine establishment shaker.

  Leftists need a rouge candidate who refuses to bow. Someone who shows promise of CHANGE and not business as usual.

  One of the missing pieces that was mentioned by someone else is the purchase of residential properties by businesses being at all time highs.

  WFH is efficient and makes sense in many cases. Private equity firms buying homes and holding them to sweat out the market far beyond what a solo landlord could or would, does not.

  Ty for calling out the non-sense. Somehow accusing Democrats of also being on the take is considered outlandish.

  Theyve got us fighting over scraps (abortion, marriage, the right to express ourselves and love who we want) but they are in full agreement on where most of the tax dollars go (MIC, contracting companies of powerful friends, subsidies for factory farms).

  Gonna have to wake up the dormant Sheeple.

  Maximizing the utility of labor? I’m alluding to using the components of the scenario in the most efficient way.

  How would you express it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Posting the shopping cart theory because people had questions in a separate thread⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I see your point and I’ve got amazing manners with human beings. It’s a view I personally reserve for companies. And the larger they are, the less I respect them enough to have ‘manners’ towards them.

  Perhaps it’s the inability for people to treat corporations the way corporations treat people that leads to such a power differential.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Posting the shopping cart theory because people had questions in a separate thread⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I definitely have the unpopular opinion of disagreeing. As much as I’d like to employ manners with my grocery store, if there’s no corral within a 30 second walk from me, I don’t put the cart back. Most of my purchases are under 8 items and I usually don’t use a cart so I just carry everything by hand in the store and out.

  My grocery store doesn’t care about manners on their end. It treats me like an economic unit and even makes self checkout the most reasonable option. They’d have me clean the floors as part of the checkout if they could. From a utilitarian perspective, it makes more sense for one person to gather all the carts in a batch rather than each individual going back for their individual cart.

  The insurance rates thing is a legitimate point ( insurance is a racket, though. Fuck those guys too)

  In the US, unlike most other countries, medical doctors are most at risk for suicide.

  As much as I’m against parasitic practices, I wonder how the inevitable corruption of money would (further) skew research if academia was well paid for their papers.
