I’m asking you to stop saying “it doesn’t matter”, not to stop talking about it. You’re looking at a world drastically different from the one in which you grew up and discounting it entirely, which implies that pollution no longer matters.

I need you to understand that all of this was crystal clear decades ago. I said doomed because yes I am aware of how bad it is.

It can and will get worse if we give up on life itself.

Good point, they could be an opioid addict too! It’s best to keep an eye out for any drug-seeking behavior the person in pain exhibits.

Surely the SEC will shut down these shenanigans! /s

Nixon Shock: “Am I a joke to you?”

I hate app requirements and avoid McDonald’s just because I don’t want to pay extra just to not install one.

IMHO what matters is the fundamentals, not technical analysis. Iff they had a breakthrough technology that was actually profitable, then I could believe a chart like that.

IMHO I’m kinda glad it was trained on all the forum posts I made during what turned out to be the golden age of training data. Now the LLMs sound a little bit like me.

It won’t happen all at once. There will be some last part of you that she won’t want to lose.

Pay for adblock by the guy who made us need NoScript.

Imagine seeing a bird do a really shitty job of flying and being mad it’s wasting its gift.

I still maintain good customer etiquette, stowing my goods and stealthing away… from a huge glowing Weed Store sign.
