Its too bad I am not vain enough to become a model. The world is missing out.

@JordiGH thank you for your insightful answer!

Isn't english essentially a pidgin language?

@kev "google is email" is what they would likely say

@gcupc this is propaganda

@dirtycommo @LinuxSocist this all heavily reminds me of the themes of the book "Against The Day" by Thomas Pynchon. It deals with the continual liberating promise of new technology being corrupted by the status quo before it can take off. It is set in the early 1900s when airships were thought to be the future, and since the airship is passed over for the airplane the airship becomes this mythical technology that escapes this process of corruption.

@bob My favorite artificial scarcity is when only two or three ebook copies of the same book can be taken out at a time on digital libraries. What a farce.

@thinkMoult @bob @Jo is it easier on pleroma?

@Jo @thinkMoult @bob this is unfortunate

I heard that some physicists calculated that on the moon with the reduced gravity and general rock composition, lava tubes of up to half a mile wide or so could be stable. Maybe I will just find one of those and build my supervillain base there.

@walruslifestyle @Antanicus @Shufei Oh my gosh, I am terrified by my own stupid argument here, it makes to much sense. If a group of people all agreed to start eating eachother, only very ocassionally, and each person was chosen by genuinely random lottery that would be a win win for almost everybody. It would be even more eco-friendly and ethical than not eating meat at all.... Am I a superhero movie villain now?

@walruslifestyle @Antanicus @Shufei *and also you, the eater, have an equal chance of being selected to be eaten*

@walruslifestyle @Antanicus @Shufei true but people are the most ethical meat, so long as they are selected by lottery

I genuinely say this without judgement, for I have been depressed as well, but it is hard to be in a relationship with someone who is depressed.

@Antanicus @walruslifestyle @Shufei I risk getting attacked here, because people frequently attack me about it but I see soylent type nutritionally complete foods as playing a potentially important role for replacing fast food and impulse meat eating. Being able to eat a relatively good tasting vegan shake on quick notice (for relatively cheap) is huge for someone like me who isn't that interested in cooking (tho I respect that good cooking is awesome)
