“There’s no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism so fuck everyone.”
“There’s no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism so fuck everyone.”
I agree with that sentiment. If it’s any consolation I think his “spirit” lives on in the work he helped create and in the people he inspired.
Ah… Yeah. Idk. If I was god I’d make it so anyone who wanted to find me could find me through any path regardless of where they started at. Assuming “god” exists and is at least that benevolent then there’s nothing to worry about regardless of your religion.
I think if god exists it would design a system that would lead you to it if you wanted to find it. In which case religion wouldn’t have to be the only way to find god.
But I suppose I should ask what do you mean by the “way to god”?
I always liked the ergonomics of the N64 controller. The recreation of those ergonomics using the Wiimote+nunchuk was one of my favorite things about the Wii lol
I have a salaried work from home job with no defined working hours. As long as the work gets done within SLAs the hours me and my team work are irrelevant.

The seeds of volition will always bring forth a new challenger.
At some point God might say “I don’t know if I can make it better than this, but I’ll give it a try if you’ll help me out.”
I like how practical your mom is lol
Yeah, you’d need to be able to see Fallen Destiny in the background.
They really are in a league of their own.

We need an open source electric car.
I don’t think anyone is saying changing bathrooms will end bullying. Judging by the conversation I’m seeing I think most people are upset that a child in a government institution was physically beaten to death.
Although based on your comment it doesn’t seem like you’re on the same page as those people.
It’s my belief that everyone is a masochist to a certain degree, and those who don’t realize it are in denial.
I drive a vehicle that burns gasoline and contributes to pollution. I purchase products that come in plastic packaging. I participate in an economy that can only exist by taking advantage of people in other countries where labor is “cheaper.” These are all things that I enjoy doing even though I know they’re inflicting suffering on people.
If I don’t do these things I pretty much won’t be able to function in society. And I certainly wouldn’t be able to contribute anything that I think is valuable.
One option would be to end myself, but that would inflict suffering on all my friends and family.
Another option would be to believe that the good I’m doing will outweigh the suffering I inflict on other people.
I’m interested in your thoughts on this. Do you think it’s possible to live a life where you don’t inflict suffering on anyone else?
You’re right, but you’re ignoring a crucial part of the equation which is the person who is suffering enjoys it or else they wouldn’t be doing it.
Haha, agreed. I used to love “going fishing” with my grandparents until I actually caught a fish, then I just felt terrible. I used to have nightmares where there would be fish hooks in my food.
Now “going fishing” to me just means hanging out by the water and being peacefully bored while other people enjoy the things they enjoy.
True, but not always true. Sometimes it’s the boss at work, or the bills on the desk, or the son you used to take fishing before he moved away for college.
As long as she’s willing to put up with that nonsense I’d love to see her as president. But I can certainly imagine a person in her position not wanting to rock the boat and subject herself to that.
