Read part of it and it's already fucked, I genuinely hope they die

Will be starting a PhD in medicinal based chemistry this September, pretty hyped for it but I'm sure it will be super hard too

Yeah, Biden and Hillary are actually demons from hell in terms of their foreign policy records (and general politics records obviously) whereas Trump is worse domestically but is either too stupid or doesn't care much about big foreign policy plans.

Honestly I think Iran will be fine now after their multi-billion dollar deal with China they made last week in return for oil.

Break up with her, lawyer up, hit the gym. The only picture allowed above one's bed is of Chairman Mao.

Did you enjoy drone striking Kunduz hospital Barack?

Because capitalism promotes competition and innovation 😎

ends up as ... postulating “self-evident” axioms like “suffering is bad”.

Yes.

没有共产党就没有新中国！

farc vs eln factionalism? Think I'm out of the loop on that one lol

Invalidating people's support mechanisms when they might not have people offline to help them is cool and definitely revolutionary thinking:smiling face with sunglasses:

Is the podcast with people with a range of tendencies? Or kind of people who roughly agree? Just wondering if there is any discussion or varied takes before I listen. Thanks!

Cold war 2.0 time baby, and this time the commies win

I didn't see what you said but I know you sincerely apologised and like you say you're not someone I would think would be actually transphobic.

If you would comfortable staying, that would be cool. I think you have important things to say and you can teach us a thing or two about life.

We need this space to be a diverse place with people from many backgrounds who have their own experiences and takes. We will definitely be losing something if you go. Either way, you're valid

Not quite as good as Gorn not Bombs, but it's definitely up there

Huge respect to you, food not bombs (or any mutual aid organisation) is on a great mission. I'm hoping to be able to get start with a similar org soon when I move.

May I ask how you contributed? I'm not going to have a car so I'm hoping there's still someway I can help

Stealing IP is objectively good, change my mind

It doesn't matter if the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice

That's a good point to be fair, I guess that's something they had no concept of when they were thinking of that stuff, although I guess a rotting body does also support a lot of life in the bacteria that eat it, which I guess some of which would be the bactiera that are already on/in you?

With regards to a nervous system, it isn't inherently better however for the argument of veganism it is what allows suffering to occur, according to all the science we know to date. Killing things without nervous systems that are (probably) incapable of suffering will reduce the amount of suffering in the world when compared to killing things that can suffer.

Even if plants did suffer, eating them over animals would still reduce total suffering because 90% of energy is wasted as you move up every trophic level. And so by us eating plants directly, rather than us eating animals that eat plants, we actually eat fewer plants anyway.
