It’s a joke. I’m amazed that anybody seriously thought I was citing green text as evidence.

Dallas. We pretty much only went to houses and did everything indoors. There are essentially no sidewalks there, so leaving a neighborhood without a car was impossible.

I can’t think of a single time that I was in a public place totally alone before I could drive. The first time I walked to a convenience store with a friend, I felt like I was going to get in trouble. I later realized how much my upbringing delayed my ability to mature as a young teen.

Mandated breaks should be paid. Nothing personal gets accomplished in an hour, it is just a chance to recharge so you can work even harder. For that reason, it serves the company, and should be paid time.

Quality, organization, community, experience, reliability, and excellence, basically. Private is a luxury experience, public is for the masses.

Perhaps not PC, but still somewhat modern. #100 is literally the plot of a Curb episode.

Don’t get me wrong, I want a clean world too, but what replaces the things we ban? Do we go back to horses (and all the animal cruelty that includes), or does someone foot the bill for everyone to get electric vehicles with charging stations that are 100% renewable?

Same with cigarettes—I’m ok with banning them in a world with free mental healthcare, humane working conditions, and stress relief spaces on every public block. Since that isn’t the world we live in though…I’m going to continue to defend people’s ability to reduce their stress with 5 minutes of nicotine, even if it is at the detriment of their own health. Some lives are so hard that extending them isn’t desirable—so the goal becomes to make the best of the time you have.

Seems silly to restrict or punish people for that reality, especially when nothing is being done to address the root causes of why people want to smoke in the first place.

Do you have any evidence for this, or are you just looking at mod logs across instances? There have been about a billion little things that have slowed or stopped content from sharing properly over the history of this system so far—how can you be sure there is malevolence on their part and not simply a bug that hasn’t been patched?

My wife is here, but for obvious reasons, her identify will remain hidden.
