The way the transparency thing works is similar to a two way mirror; they’ll always let light through, but at night the light from the outside isn’t bright enough to overpower the light from inside, which is what makes the outer layer a mirror
There are some which reflect about 95% of the light and practically 100% IR that are made of mylar foil like an emergency thermal blanket, think that’s what theyre talking about

If you didn’t see the link between the cost of everything increasing rapidly this past decade and the climate of the world that we live in, both environmental and geopolitical, thats kinda understandable, but I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make in terms of them being month on month, as if that separates them from the rest of the year that has led up to those months.

Which definitely have no relation to the overarching worldwide impacts of climate change, multiple wars and the multiple cost of living crises that are ongoing. At alllll.

I wonder if the cost of buying food more than doubling in the past five years, while wages have been behind inflation for 40 years has anything to do with this

Mirrored Infrared blocking films on your windows does wonders for cutting down the heat leaking into your apartment during the summer, and leaking out during the winter, you can double up with a clear piece sealed to the frame as well, which creates an air pocket that can trap air and prevents much of the emissive radiation from leaking in.
Im not sure if they exist but you can build little shelf extensions for your windowsills and start growing herbs and edible plants, they’ll also help to absorb some of the heat from sunlight that would otherwise warm up your home.
The solution to airflow with only one wall windowed is by using a fan and air filter to pull clean air in during the night when it’s cooler. Fitting a window seal for an air conditioner but having that attached to a filtered duct fan (get a brushless centrifugal fan, its way better when you need pressure to go through a filter not just airflow) creates a pressure difference to push the hot indoor air out of the far side of your apartment.
If you live in a very dry climate, ‘Swamp coolers’ are especially useful for reducing the impact of those months where the nights are too hot to cool the house.
In terms of your personal impact, reducing your meat intake and avoiding products that are individually wrapped/ fruit that are sealed in plastic despite having their own outer skin helps massively reduce the impact, the same way buying locally grown produce will.
Look for things that are local to you, if you need meat with no alternative, get to know a butcher who knows the farmers themselves, because that will be the least ‘shipped around the country’ meat available.
Ditch the online shopping for everything but essentials, and buy in bulk if you absolutely have to get it shipped to make it worthwhile, it’ll save you money in the long run as well.

Voices of the Void
Absolute peak game that doesn’t really have any contemporaries.
A game with base management, fully open map, random events ranging from spooky to hilarious, minigames to fix equipment, little robot helpers, big robot helpers that require some assembly, but don’t need charging thanks to running on nuclear power, and a quadbike you can backflip.
And the Christmas gun.

I don’t know how else to explain it.
Of course you don’t, because it’s an assumption and a generalisation that you’re hinging your entire tirade upon
This was a nice post about a nice group of people that YOU decided to shit upon and suggest they were likely just " good ol boys " because they drove a truck.
You literally brought up the strawman yourself when you said “but what if they were black or hispanic or trans” as if those people are all incapable of forming social connections that would put them in contact with their own version of Kevin.
You’re straw manning, then pointing the finger at anyone that calls you out on it and telling “abelist” and whataboutism-ing at them until they stop talking to you. If you’re doing this in real life as well the there’s no wonder you’ve ostracised yourself.
Want to know if your argument is ever making a generalisation in bad faith?
I also never said that everyone who drives a truck is a fascist. I only said that a lot of them are,
Replace “drives a truck” and “fascist” with anything you like. Then read your own words again.

So you’re strawmanning.
- Comment on How to move a sofa 4 weeks ago:
Are you suggesting that makes it okay to forget about outsiders? Because if that’s what you believe, then I challenge you to explain what makes xenophobia wrong without contradicting that sentiment that you’re relying on so heavily.
Why would your first assumption be that I’m excluding everybody that doesn’t fit into the niche?
For clarity, if you want me to pass your purity test by telling you that Xenophobia makes about as much sense as stapling your genitals to a 2x4 and swinging said 2x4 at a hornet’s nest, since we’re ALL GOD DAMN HUMAN BEINGS THAT DESERVE RESPECT AND HELP WHEN NEEDED EVEN IF THEY ARE SHITTY.
I don’t think anyone in their right mind would use that to argue that blind black men shouldn’t require additional assistance and accomodations that most don’t.
Who’s arguing that? We’re talking about sharing what abilities we do have for the greater good, in this one tiny example posted- where one person has a truck, another has a need for a truck. They, as human beings, understand that helping people feels good, so they help each other in exchange for a ‘peppercorn’ payment of either a shared drink/a pizza/the acknowledgment of being the one that provides help the next time. (Based on the last line about the guys with the truck noticing he was strong for his size, they knew he was capable and wouldn’t have asked something of him beyond his ability, because that’s rude.)
the more examples you list, the more you marginalize people who either can’t do those things, or can’t find someone who’s willing to help them out in the way that they need in exchange for one of those things that they happen to also be able to do.
So you’re assuming that I’m saying people that can’t pay through any means don’t deserve help? You REALLY think that about a stranger you know nothing about.
Have you heard of the concept of goodwill? Of helping someone out for the entirely selfish reason of ‘helping people feels good and it makes me feel good’?
Do you know that there are volunteers currently digging people (people that couldn’t ever repay them, some of whom are children, many of whom will become disabled as a result.) out of the rubble that was once their home at great personal risk from either falling debris or from further attacks that led to the homes being destroyed?
But please tell me how the examples that I’m providing are exclusive and how they’re not non-exhaustive examples of ways that human beings help one another.

“to each according to their connections.”
Show me one part of humanity’s development that did not involve social connection. You, as a human being are part of an unbroken chain of social connections spanning back so far that there isn’t even a word for how many generations it is.
Maybe the system works for autistic people who can grill, but what about autistic people who can spend two hours explaining the history of North Rhine-Westphalia or Star Trek lore or any other special interest? You think someone with a truck will view that as an equivalent exchange?
You’re still focusing too much on the minutiae of the reference not the meaning behind it, its not about the grilling the same way it’s not about the truck, the same way small talk isn’t about the weather.
To use your own words
I don’t know how much clearer I can break it down for you
ITS ABOUT MAKING A CONNECTION WITH ANOTHER HUMAN BEING AND DISCOVERING THAT NOT EVERYONE IS A CUNT.
I have fully ND mates, who have special interests that they have built communities around. One of whom was genuinely incapable of spending time out in public without being in full body attack mode after less than an hour is now entirely able to spend an entire day out at a festival AND maintain enough social battery to continue spending time with friends well into the evening. Something they have fully admitted to me would not be possible five years ago.
- Comment on How to move a sofa 4 weeks ago:
I’m not saying it’s an inexplicable reason.
Im saying that you’re making a lot of assumptions about people that are harming your ability to connect and learn the truth about them by jumping straight to “You’re a fascist/ableist/[insert a label that allows you to maintain your supposed moral high ground by not engaging in converssation.]”
Your attitude of assuming fascism based on one drop of ignorance, either through their poor upbringing, susceptibility/exposure to propaganda or through, in this post for example, their choice to drive a truck, is part of what’s causing your social life harm.
Now, to clarify; I am in no way suggesting that you need to make nice with actual fascists. I’m saying you should treat people with differing opinions like human fucking beings, because judging people based on your own assumptions about the miniscule amounts of information you can garner by a short interaction IS some fascist shit.
I, to suffer from being a neurodivergent and more often than not, being an antisocial person, but what I do is actually talk to people like they’re actual people, instead of painting then with a wide brush by labelling them.
I have genuinely changed someone’s mind on what’s going on in Gaza by actually talking to them about it, instead of shutting down any form of communication and cutting them out, because I KNEW they weren’t actually a racist, but instead were a product of the absolutely monumental propaganda campaign that is modern mass media and social media manipulation.

You don’t have to keep your mouth shut about the bad things going on in the world to be nice to people.
The same way an ongoing climate collapse, the rise of real fascism in america (not just ‘being friendly’ to people as you say) multiple wars and multiple capital G genocides does not mean you’ve got to be shitty to everyone around you just because they’re not perfectly aligned with the way you speak.
Maybe try to take a minute and instead of reading everything in bad faith by instantly thinking the worst of someone who you know nothing about based purely on an internet comment, use the phrase “Dont make perfect the enemy of good.”
If you want to stay a self imposed outast, that’s fine too. But remember nobody is making it out alive if everyone tries to make it alone.
