Like the 80s were wild. Incredible movies like threads or testament. Stay at home moms tiring themselves to military base gates and intercepting shipments and waste dumps.

None of it worked and we got so complacent when the Cold War ended. Nothing threatens them. Unions and direct action campaigns are honeypots waiting to be turned inside out.

Imagine a future with less fast food workers and more occupational therapists.

My own illogical bet is really deep geothermal drilled using direct energy drilling developed from fusion research that also mines metals from the brine.

We’re too media brained. Avoided the struggle session last time on the importance of physical media but our inability to even begin countering climate change and ww3 shows we really cannot handle multiple things and maybe should even put off enjoying it things until we try everything we can to save complicated life on earth.

Physical media doesn't last either. Hard disks can be replicated and replaced in a NAS.

Like this isn't a bad thing. Piracy is better for the planet. Physical media as a virtue campaigners are just tiresome lib dweebs when the problem has been as been solved twenty years ago.

Could you imagine a world where people invest spare money in state bonds that fund actual productive activity and not the usual fradulant parastic rent seeking?

Have nothing to add

Ok I am trans…

… no not that… you are confused…

Rationing of water for individual use which is meagre compared to industry, agriculture or loss from decaying infrastructure is an important idea for the porkies who want to privatise municipal water supplies like Tatcher did in the UK.

Making me think of the goofy ancaps who thought lftr power plants would materialise in ancapistan.

Suck it Denmark

Yeah should have linked that sorry. Exact same source I have. I really hope I am not talking out of my ass because it's so funny and being exposed to this super-lib genocide loving song contest all my life has caused some profound psychic damage.

Now the Netherlands has likely been kicked out for highlighting the obvious security risk of letting Israel perform but not the genocide? Also a weird Scooter meets euro/globo federalist act that kinda slaps.

But the public vote can have a huge sway on these things toward the end on Saturday. The juries or whatever they are called are between a rock in a hard place. Their vote is shown country by country weighted like 1 to 12 and many countries broadcasters will be afraid of looking antisemitic compared to a potential tidal wave in the public vote.

Israel is also getting a suspicously high number of votes in last night's semi-finale. Higher then even Ukraine since the war with hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian refugees spread throughout Europe who got their act to win in 2022.

It's so funny because if anybody watches this intercontinental embarrasment, the European Broadcast Union failson that "counts" the text message votes is treated with so much reverence every contest for a couple of minutes. If they don't do anything about it and Israel wins the "public" vote then the contest will have likely have to be hosted in Israel the next year.

Europe is such a an embarrassment. :

I am sick of feeling claustrophobic in my own home because land is a premium and I have to drive everywhere because having four inefficient walls and tiny yard to yourself that you never have time to enjoy without busywor is so important.

We must build up and deep into the earth with vast glorious metros that feel like cathedrals.

Plumbers and other tradesmen are so hard to get in the current economy that I often see them be treated with the same reverence as doctors or priests when shit hits the fan. Maybe it's different in the US or UK but parents pushing their children into white collar and PMC jobs has created a massive void in our economy.

These parents must sell up everything and live in poverty to lend their white collar children just enough to qualify for mortgages to buy hyperspeculated ovepriced assets once referred to as "homes". Still no other system is possible then this aparantly.

Antiwork losers really did a solid for the bosses.

Adriane V88 moment imminent

Like the meat industry is already abusing the word natural as much as it can so they are well primed if lab pink slime was ever economically viable.

Health systems are collapsing. Even if we won it would be such a dire situation. People need to get a real grip on their health and stop poisoning themselves.
