Finally, psyllium husk for the rest of us!

If voters wanted to vote for republican-lite they already have the republican party

Oh, that’s a good tool

Is it burnout or does it seem like chores are insurmountable but possibly easier if someone else breaks them down to smaller tasks? Also could be both

The House of Windsor claims Odin as an ancestor lol

It drives me crazy cause operating within the system isn’t going to get you power either!! Look at allowable contours of Israel-Gaza-Lebanon-Iran right fucking now - at one end genocide but feel bad to the other genocide by don’t feel bad. And the campus protestors, bless them, are mocked for “critiquing power” instead of trying to seize this rickety ass system that a thousand ways of moulding or shuddering YOU if you try to enter and compete within it.

Maybe they though Mirabilis for “amazing to wonder at” 😍

Except I bet a plant got it first and they scrambled

Coelacanth started going with them then stopped, figuring horse shoe crab knew what was up

I always felt bad for em, we either drowned them in alcohol or froze them. I also felt guilt boiling the ecoli I spent time genetically engineering (in a genetics uni lab)

From my twisted mind, I bring you this cursed thougjt:

Hexbear the TTRPG

Fewer things in life feel better than shitting out the evil within

Well hang on, a French girl. This is one of my special interests, I will have to actually play phantom liberty now

How dare you make me contemplate the depths of the human condition and how someone can redeem themselves no matter the act

Do you play DE?
Have you ever played DE?
Will you play DE?
When will you play DE?

No, I don’t think we can do large scale projects without seizing power so in my heart, they’re not feasible under this economic paradigm even with a relatively progressive even FDR-scale effort - so I think we agree on short and medium term feasibility.

I think helping relocation efforts is nice and comes from a good place. But to me, it reminds me too much of things like the Trail of Tears just done with a far softer hand and carrot instead of stick. I don’t think relocation can happen equitably without building hurricane/natural disaster resilience in Florida

Weed is legalized where I live and yes, it becoming dominated by corporate interests is an issue, but I do NOT miss putting up with dealers. Gotta hang out for an hour and toke if I just wanna buy an eighth or “oh yeah I’m just around the corner” sent 45 minutes ago

That shit is so funny that the split and all wanna claim the mantle of ZA/UM

Sheer inertia from coming up in the comedy scene at its easiest point

I think helping people move due to climate change is a reasonable project. A lot of people moved to Florida because housing was cheaper, some moved because they liked the chud De Santis political stuff, some moved because it’s just nicer weather innit? For those who moved because housing was cheaper, hopefully shelter can be provided in more favorable areas.

I think there’s some resilience style architecture they could do to make hurricanes more survivable and make flooding/rising tides better off. All over the carribean, they build with cinder blocks, and those handle storms quite handily. Cuba has remarkable storm resilience structures and infrastructure, including just beaurocratic infrastructure - and they’re poor af and can’t just move to Norcal.

As a project a handful of people could actually mount, honestly it’s probably all we can do to provide moving assistance and shelter elsewhere nearby or very far away (like a hexbear mutual aid bat phone where you’re willing to house another member for a short term during the hurricane and the recovery and maybe some cash to help the evacuee).

As a project that’s actionable at a national/state level, yes there’s a lot more that could be done. Regulations on building materials (no more stick built frames), nationalizing insurance so people can actually get it at a reasonable rate and they can actually get a payout after a disaster, decarbonizing so less extreme weather events happen in the future longer term, rewilding so carbon can be pumped back into the earth via plants (possibly BECCS too), on top of shelters and people who can check on you and get you to one, movement assistance for people seeking to leave due to disaster etc.

I’m sure the PSL will appreciate seeing a higher vote count, however have you considered writing in Hillary
