  • It’s closer to 30%.

    About 80% of the biomass of the food grown for human consumption is fed to livestock as well. That may be where you’re getting that number? That’s being insanely generous. What we’re talking about is like, corn stalks, squash vines, that kind of shit. The parts of the plants humans cannot physically eat but none the less must produce to feed ourselves.

    I’m sure the irony of your bullshit bingo card is completely lost on you but you haven’t said anything that strictly speaking could be interpreted as true in this thread.






  • This is not only wrong it’s extremely wrong.

    It’s a well documented sexual dysfunction with diagnosis codes and treatment methods (really mostly coping mechanisms and therapy) and everything.

    Not all people who are pedophiles rape children or consume CSM. Some people have the presence of mind to seek out help. Those people are people we can have an adult discussion about and if you want to be specific with definitions with them, fine. Be my guest.

    For the people who raped minors, or consumed CSM? Literally does not fucking matter what you call them. Any discussion on exactly the right word to use is a targeted distraction from the point. You’re either willfully and knowingly engaging in that distraction, or you’re ignorant of the harm some people are trying to cause by doing so.

    He’s a pedophile. Everybody that went to Epstein’s Island is a pedophile, rapist, child molester, whatever, or in the very best case complicit in those crimes.

    I don’t find them entertaining.

    I’ll grant you the artwork going in to them is wonderfully done, the cinematography is better than the marvel movies but that’s a frighteningly low bar. But the storytelling, character development, and you know, movie part of the avatar movies is a boring slog.






  • In my experience,French people in Paris really don’t want you speaking French. They almost all speak English and find bad accents irritating.

    When we got to our hotel I went to the front desk and said “hey I’m sorry I don’t speak much French but we have a reservation.” And the lady who was Swiss looked at me and said “but you’re speaking French now” and proceeded to tell me a bunch of stuff. Then she saw my face and started laughing. That little razz was one of the highlights of that trip. Any time I spoke French to anyone else they would wince and switch to English. Except for the Italian guy at one of the restaurants we went to, he was pretty cool about it.

    Outside of Paris, the French people were really cool about working with my bad, broken French. Possibly because they didn’t speak any more English than I did French. Usually less.
