  Nicotine levels have been increased to compete with vapes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to be ethical⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, he wants to see if anon can be shamed about his lack of ethics.

  If he is shameless, CEO behavior.

  If he is ashamed, McDonald’s behavior.

  If you lie about it, then just par for the course and you can be a broker anywhere. Gotta feed out the line to find the narcissistic socios and not the stealthy ones.

  Don’t worry everyone. Blue is exactly the same as green, but colored differently. As someone in the blue, friends with green.

  A 17 year old and an 18 year old are only a year apart in maturity. It’s essentially comparable to a 17 and 16 year old. 2 years apart starts to get gray as far as morality goes. I’m against 16 and 19, but i can imagine extremely remote cases where it might be acceptable, but that is stretching my objective capabilities. 16 and 20 is too far. As you get closer to 25 and the brain is fully developed, the margins get wider.

  For instance, 18 and 22? That goes back to stretching it. 19 and 23? Back to morally Grey. 20 and 24? Fine.

  Ephebophelia definitions are meant to cast a wide net to protect as many people as possible. Just get over it for societies greater good.

  Late Stage Capitalism: Poverty is worse than anytime after slavery, wealthy people have never been wealthier, police brutality is at the highest since slavery, workers rights are trending back towards the second Industrial Revolution, politics recognizes corporations as people (thus robbing those who cannot compete with billions upon billions of dollars), civil rights are receding, basic necessities are becoming scarce, the environment itself is being poisoned for profit, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a more politically conservative part of the fediverse?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m confused. You are here and engaging, but you think it is an echo chamber? Echo chambers aren’t really conducive to outside opinions. I’m here and definitely not a liberal, I’m a humanitarian.

  As long as you don’t see any person to the left of you as a Liberal, you’ll find a decently diverse pool here!

  Stick around, smell the flowers.

  Working from home is legitimately amazing. My bud oes not need to sit at your desk with your lame chair and keyboard. He has a much faster pc at home with the big clicky-clackies. Ten hour work day? He will bring that shizz down to 6-8 with the same productivity and can play games on the side.

  I get that it doesn’t work for everyone, especially those with task management issues, but out of the 40 people I know, 2 do better in an office.
