Vegapunk saying that the war was between ideologies makes me hopeful that it's something irreconcilable, but shonen manga do love to do that shit

Animal leather isn't really any better for the environment because the tanning process uses a ton of chemicals like chromium that are toxic, so if they decompose they leech chemicals into the soil, and the manufacturers tend to locate production in places like India, Bangladesh, Haiti, etc where they can get away with dumping huge amounts of chemical waste into the environment and can easily abuse workers due to low pay and lax health and safety regulations. And that's on top of the farm animals already contributing massive amounts to pollution and greenhouse gasses.

So unless their leather is artisanally handcrafted buffalo hide from a First Nations tribe that uses every part of the animal, they're delusional.

So looks like Vegapunk's last trick is that a pre-recorded broadcast will play if he dies. Bonney now has control over a small army of super robots, the Marines lose their top scientist, and the entire world will hear about the Void Century, the World Government couldn't possibly have self owned worse than this

Great video! MMT is great as a framework for understanding money but I think like this video sorta highlights, the economists developing the theoretical side have gaps that can only really be filled by a Marxian interpretation.

Rotation would just be for privacy measures as that way any analytics tied to the account get dumped.

I wonder how the bot farms automate it, there's clearly a way they do it unless they actually have teams of people manually creating accounts. Even then based on user load there's only so many that would actually need to be made.

I'd forgotten entirely about this anime, great analysis of it

Was sick this past two-ish weeks and kinda slipped. Main issue was being sick really messed up my eating schedule which lead to overeating on snacks, which has highlighted another issue that I'm unconciously subbing sweets for salties. Not worse but also not really better. I've also started noticing the limits of minimizing added sugar from prepackaged food, so unless I start making everything from scratch I think I might bite the bullet and try getting back to calorie counting.

Been looking for something to pickup for February and came across this concept called a "commonplace book" which is just writing down tidbits of stuff that resonates with you. This seems like it might be a decent fit for me because journaling isn't something have had success with in the past. Might also help cut down on digital clutter.

It would be cool to see the Grand Fleet show up

Mountains come in many forms

Thank you!
