Good tip, thanks!

Dear Nitwit,

A reduced faith in science might, hear me out here, ••might•• have something to do with science, ya know, killing the planet and what not. You wanna get some faith back? Maybe apply these new technologies to human happiness, or even, who knows human survival.

One more thing, nimrod. The real risk averse culture? It ain’t your unwashed “zero-sum thinking Millennials” No, it’s your hyper capitalist who’s rigged the system to the point where taking financial risk is erased by government bailouts. They’re the ones who want to eliminate risk.

And it’s that, plus their increased control of what is and is not researched in practised science that leads to our dismay. See above: “planet dying” Imagine something like pencillin, developed entirely within an academic risky environment, getting made today.

There’s risk in true critical thinking, instead of lazy “Kids Today” hand-wringing. So, in future, take a fucking risk.

Yeah, I really got to start looking at photos before I post them. The picture does make it look a bit … poop adjacent.

Two things here. I was forced to go induction when I moved house about fifteen years ago, and I love it. It’s just better than gas. I’m terrible at many things, but I’m a good cook, and I can say, there’s nothing I can do - nothing - that isn’t better on induction. Admittedly, not crazy about the waste of new things, but even so, worth it.

Also, turns out, Big Natural Gas lied to you. It’s dangerous (which the article states). This is a carrot and stick. I’m all electric, and working on solar soon.

I think that’s a great recommendation. I really admire your admission of not being anywhere near zero waste. Me neither! But it’s better to do better than do nothing. The zero waste movement can get quite fanatical, which is a turn off. Especially if it’s about shopping for things to be zero waste with.

I don’t do everything right, but I do bring my own bags. But it took years, and like any habit, and like you said, it’s about feeling. I’d walk into a store, and it would start to feel weird if my hand is empty. If you forget to bring your bag today, bring it tomorrow. The feelings develop over time.

I know because I’ve switched recently to getting my bread and croissants in a wax-cloth bag (instead of the throwaway papers). It’s been about six months, and I get it right … about half the time.

Like so many bands known for their single hit, this entire album is chock full of bangers. Joe Bob says check it out!

Wow, thanks!

As to the first, it’s not the Simpsons, but may be either Alpine for You (Popeye short, 1951) or The Mouse That Roared (1959). If you don’t want to go down a rabbit hole for many hours, do NOT click the following link. This was the result of great obsession, and I’m very impressed. Good luck on your dataset!

Upvoted for correct use of word ‘grok’, but definitely want to learn more about agent-based modelling. If for no other reason than truth inoculation is one of the more vital battles of our time.

Evidence for: Constantine and JCVD Evidence against: Waterworld.

To be fair, though, the greatness of the Universal logo as a flooded world almost makes up for the whole movie. So yes, thesis proved.
