I like it. Art and activism.
Points out awful business practice by Bezos in both the lack of bathroom breaks for employees and the lack of quality control in content.
No person was harmed. Product pulled to ensure as much once the piece was complete.
Well done.
Their content turned fairly bad. Witcher and Stranger Things were the only reasons to keep it. So why keep it?
Haven’t had it for a while. It was cool in the 00s, started to go bad in the 10s. Inertia can only take you so far.
Hell, even AppleTV free run had more decent content for 3 mos.
That is atypical.
Now if you become one with a chair for most of the day, expect it in your 40s. And expect an active 80+ year old to physically kick your ass by the time you hit 60.
But 30s? That’s an outlier.
Not stand up. David Sedaris, his life essays, not the short stories.
The Ship Shape, amiright?
Idk what it was about Voyager, it never really popped as a series for me. Mulgrew was great.
She was also great as Red and Flemeth/Mythal (my money is on Mythal anyway).
The rest of the cast was rather blah. No on screen repor.
This is a leadership problem. The problem really does need to be solved at the top.
The reality is most working class cannot just stop, unless handed a practical alternative because stopping would mean not going to work, not earning income, and being rendered homeless. Likely living in their car first which would put oil consumption right back in play.
Whatever alternative you’re thinking of that the working class might be able to achieve as an individual probably has a buy-in cost. Given the even greater number of folks living paycheck to paycheck in the last two years, that buy-in isn’t a plausible ask.
Sucks. But here we are. Find a cost free (to the working class individual) solution that doesn’t interrupt the 5-6 day/wk work schedule or require any extra costs or moving and you’ll solve it. Until then, working class folks are going to do what they must to keep the lights on and the water running, and that’s usually going to be commuting to work in a gas consuming vehicle. As such, the solution needs to come from the top, not the bottom.
Earnest question. Is there enough lithium on the planet to turn around every vehicle in the United States to electric? Assume infrastructure for charging. Even then, do we even have the lithium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, and graphite or whatever else electric vehicle batteries need for it?
Keep up the good work. Love these.
I’ll never argue in favor of glitter, but if we’re discussing micro plastics there’s this:

All the synthetic shit cloth you wear and/or sleep on has impact.
Likely to make more impact on this microplastic by buying cotton or bamboo than trying to ban glitter.
This is the problem with non-medical personnel making broad strokes medical decisions. Lives can and will be lost.
If you live remote, say, an hour or more from real shopping and such it’s the way to get fast delivery on anything, though Walmart does ok with this, though their “fast” is fairly unreliable. (Great for front door delivery of kitty litter, dog food, etc)
But no, most people don’t need it because most people don’t live remote.
This is, by far, my favorite lemmy sub.
As a career night shifter I’m having great difficulty understanding this.
I feel like gollum when forced to face the sun.
Is this a Varric reference? “How about a giant sign that just says ‘Don’t’, [you could hit people with it.”]
