Huh, I guess that will mean that humans will perpetually be moving to “the big city” from the countryside. I guess romcoms won’t ever have to change their story line.

Good point, you might only need to knock off a very small fraction.
That’s funny because in my case fights leave my head and I’m on to something else in no time.
Yeahhhh, maybe not…
And what are the communists up to?

That’s well before my time.
Zelensky supports absolutely anyone that will put a gun in his hand. If I were in his shoes, I would too.
Anybody know of a way to reduce micropastic pollution from tires that isn’t parking your car? It seems like an inevitable side effect of all tires.
I’ll remind you instead
Oh wow, now I understand why I disagree with them so much. Being communist is one thing, but being antidemocratic is a whole other thing. Thanks for the explanation!
Not sure why you got downvoted. I don’t know what a tankie is, but the rest is spot on.
There are authors starting to publish without a publisher. I think that is the right direction, not making all books free. Maybe once the publishers have less control there will be some copyright reforms to shorten the time it takes to bring works into the public domain. Right now it is 95 years from publishing, but I think the author’s life plus 30 years or something might make a bit more sense. For example, George Orwell has been dead for over 70 years, but his works are still under copyright.
??? Cotton is usually the cheapest thing I see.
Even natural rubber makes microplastics.
The two largest sources of microplastics are clothing and car tires. Clothing is a pretty easy fix. Only buy natural fibers like cotton, wool, etc. For car tires you will have to drive less. These two sources account for more than half of microplastics.
a Shapiro-esque fit
🤣🤣🤣
I’m using that line
It’s not from ignorance. It’s based on the people I know from China.
I mean, if you haven’t been there or don’t know anyone from there you could pretend they are a democracy, but they are authoritarian like Russia is authoritarian. Long term they will seek a wider swath to be authoritarian over.
I think this flies a bit too far in the other direction. China is totalitarian. It is not a democracy. It is also increasingly antagonizing nations abroad. I think it is valid to consider it a threat if you are any other nation, period.
Edit: Kinda like Russia
If you match their pitch will they change it?
