Found the idiot.

You don’t have to care about every single thing in the world. It’s perfectly valid to not want to deal with or think about trans people as long as you’re not actively trying to sabotage them. I’m sure there are dozens of “movements” you are unaware of, and can’t bother to give a damn about even if they were explained to you.

If someone feels safer around a bear than they’d feel around me, then I’d also feel safer if that person chose the bear.

Dumb, low effort, meaningless retort.

Are you calling me a genocide defender? Explain.

Why are you even suggesting that I am a genocide defendee we when the very example I gave was to help prevent a genocide in Ukraine? Lol.

Ah, it’s probably because you don’t actually have a winning argument, and you’re just grasping at straws to defend your fantasy-hopes-and-dreams world views.

Grow up.

Warfare equipment is required to defend, as well as attack. Let’s see who you’re calling evil when a would-be attacking nation waltzes in and rapes your family while you’re tied up in the corner, and then murders you like the Russians were doing to the Ukrainians.

That woman was doing the hard work that you were unable to, because you’re too much of a bitch to accept reality.

Usually I agree here, but this is completely silly in context. We are all perfectly capable of helping OP interpret and follow the directions, because you don’t need to have eight years of medical experience to understand the instructions on the back of the medication box. We’re also talking about over-the-counter medicine here, and it’s basically guaranteed safe for all but the most excessive doses, which OP is not in any danger of exceeding because they’re asking if its okay to take a second pill, when the box already said you can take two simultaneously every “x” hours.

I worked in Red River for about a year and a half and it was pretty great. It was like Colorado Lite up there, and presumably much more affordable–I just had a condo paid for by my employer so I dunno. It’d be tough to live there without a remote job, I admit.

Taos was cool, but a little small/touristy. Santa Fe seemed great, but I heard it was expensive so I dunno. The rural areas did feel very impoverished overall.

I agree that it had its own feel. The native New Mexicans I met out there were just kind of their own people doing their own thing. The state had those fruit/pepper/produce stands here and there on the side of the road that you’d see in like Brazil. The landscape and terrain was this pretty mixture of desert shrubland right adjacent to mountain cypress-type ecosystems, at least in all the places I went to.

Would be worth going back again one day.

Yeah, you didn’t know this back then. Maybe you did if you were a healthcare professional or a specialist in virology. In the US, all we had to go off of was the CDC, who are supposed to be the apex specialists, fighting with Trump who just had gut feelings about drinking bleach to kill the virus, and a literal ocean of misinformation and horrifying lockdown/mass casualty stories coming out of China.

It was clear that nobody actually knew what was up, and that public safety advice was biased through this filter intended to get people back to work to save the economy. Someone at some point decided that X number of people might die to save X percent of the economy and apparently we were supposed to be okay with that?

Hmmm.

Gasoline is only one part of what comes from oil. If you participate in modern society, you’re using petroleum products whether you like it or not lol

Yeah, for sure. I used to think they just both sucked, and maybe they still do, but there’s no excuse for the level to which Israel has gone. And now I question whether Palestine was acting in some sort of “self defense” all along.

I think back to other revolutions and such, and although they aren’t 1-1 comparisons, I wonder… I bet the people of England thought the Americans were absolute terrorists during the revolutionary war.

Anyways. Not an expert… just been trying to make sense of the happenings.

Has Israel been the bad guy the entire time, or just as of a few months ago?

Nah, he might just be dumb. Pretty sure I knew space was real before I was 10 lol

A badge of honor

People are being hung and burned to death, and you’re commenting about seeing some mild photos of it? We need to get over it and commit to becoming more intimately familiar with how a large portion of the world works, because avoiding violence seems to be a privilege and a luxury, the more I see of the world. The least we can do is witness it, because I think violent revolution and violent oppression is closer to any of us than we want to admit.

How do I boycott Panama? I’ll add them onto my list with Nestlé lol

Dr. Pepper gang

Who cares if they get it? It’s peanuts for most people anyways, especially nowadays.

Yeah, this is the truth that people are too emotional to accept. I do air permitting and also spend every day calculating the “maximum allowable pollution” a site can produce while keeping it within applicable regulatory limits. Even if the CEO was like “alright, time to go green!” and devotes 100% of the profits to operating “green”, they’ll just get sued by the shareholders and be bankrupt or go to jail. Even if there are no shareholders, their operating costs will skyrocket and they’ll be put out of business by the company next door, or even just Saud Arabia.

Passing government regulation is the only way. But we are also operating in a global economy, so you might just end up destroying your entire oil business in the process, sending all of that marketshare to places with even -worse- environmental regulation. Which just comes back to us anyways in the grand scheme of things.
