This feels tantalizingly close to the truth.

lol

What the fuck are “unregretted user minutes”? I regret every minute any user spends on that site, so it should be zero.

The future is dangerous. Keep going this way so you don’t have to see it.

And twitter. And mastodon. And lemmy ffs, we’re not immune. (I’m doing it right now, in fact.)

You’re going to get to! That’s what they will actually be doing if the class action lawsuits don’t crash them.

Art doesn’t need to know this answer that badly. This fucking guy has taken

• dilaudid
• morphine
• opium
• nitrous
• pcp
• meth
• lighter fluid, by huffing
• cough syrup at a dose of “two bottles”

I don’t even know what a few of these things are, and I’m not going to look up and see how crazy the doses on everything else are, but based on the ones I do know I can only conclude that this guy is trying to kill himself.

And he’s succeeding, from the sound of it.

You’re asking this in a community that’s specifically about doing piracy. Pretty hard to take your question seriously in this context.

Because as a society we’ve forgotten how to throw bricks at bad people

“Oh, I’m not a sapiosexual myself, but I am a know-it-ally.”

Not far enough though

Do you go into airports and announce your departure? Or are you an airplane?

No offense OP but your username is profoundly obnoxious, so I’m blocking you.

Muslims and Mormons have similar strictures around caffeine.

For me it was the yoga. I’ll bet modern Islam doesn’t have much of a reaction to it. In US religions. yoga is in the category of “things foreigners do” and is therefore of the devil.

It isn’t “objectively harmful” any more than playing beach volleyball in the sun is “objectively harmful”. You can do it responsibly, protect yourself, limit your exposure. And when you do, you can enjoy yourself, which is the opposite of harm. Just because alcohol can be abused doesn’t mean it must be. Most people who partake of alcohol enjoy the net good of its benefits. Most people do not become alcoholics, most people do not die of cirrhosis, most people do not die of liver cancer.

This last part is actually true of all drugs: the most fantastically addictive substances on earth, like meth and heroin, still have more casual users than addicts.

So, Mormon or Muslim? I’m betting Mormon.

Of course you understand some dog barks, you just don’t think about it because humans process language innately, we have specialized brain structures for it.

I’ll bet you can recognize “I see a threat” and 'I’m in pain" when you hear them. Maybe even distinguish them from “happy excitement”

and i figured you’d read what i actually wrote instead of arguing with someone who didn’t exist

Yes, I know all that. The argument I was replying to was that you run out of trees if you use them to make paper without recycling. That argument is false. You’re arguing with points I didn’t make.

No, this isn’t solved by having a whole forest available when you scale up the consumer side too.

You’re seriously underestimating how many trees there are. The only reason we’re losing forest is because of grazing land. That’s clearcutting, where you remove the tree and just destroy it or just burn the whole forest. As a vegetarian I’m obviously not here to defend grazing land, but if you look only at wood and paper production, we absolutely can replace the trees we use with enough time for them to regrow completely.

Doing so devastates ecosystems by turning them into monocultures, but you’re only talking about the replacement rate of trees. We don’t have to worry about the replacement rate of trees, we have to worry about greed for land and environmental impact.
