It’s natural that we gravitate towards familiarity.

Case in point, how some actors always seem to play the same character, no matter which movie they’re in.

Definitely looks more like a Pippin to me…

You mean you don’t have someone at home who will saute your onions for you in advance? Plebian…

Lemmy is a stupid god awful name.

The first result you get on google is a dead singer. Every other search you will have him on the front page instead of what you’re trying to find. Contrast this to searching for something from reddit.

I can’t understand why every other fediverse name is so stupid as to be off putting to the average user.

I’m a bit confused as to what’s happening in the last frame?

So many commenters are missing crucial context to this infographic.

This was released during peak covid and I mean PEAK as in June 2020, global lockdowns, high mortality rates, shortages of essentials. In case anyone has a short memory, the world as we knew it practically ground to a halt.

Not to take away anything from artists but essential in this context meant essential to the basic human needs. Health, Nutrition, Sanitation.

I was going to say calm down satan but the commenter who replied to you is the real Satan

Facebook too. Don’t forget Cambridge Analytica

I don’t blame the kid. I blame overly zealous professors who put unrealistic requirements on Turn-it-in scores.

There’s only so many ways an idea can be succinctly expressed. Any other phrasing just becomes obtuse but sometimes students have no choice because some professor when overboard with plagiarism detection.

Certain Sodas and fruit flavored drinks

Great. That was usefully specific.

I’d be concerned if it was something bill clinton said.

Remember when everyone boycotted apple because of the horrendous conditions at Foxconn? Or people boycotting Lithium batteries because of slave like conditions in African mines? Remember?! Oh wait. No one gave a shit as long as they got their consumer products.

Note: This is NOT whataboutism. This is just a reminder that consumers only care if it doesn’t seriously inconvenience them. Otherwise they always turn a blind eye.

Maybe she would have survived child birth just fine if she wasn’t forced choked to within an inch of her life just before giving birth.

It’s not but it can’t be divorced form capitalism either.

A farmer does not produce grain out of the goodness of his heart. He’s doing it to provide for his family’s needs and wants, maybe new clothes for his kids or a new stove, etc. We work jobs to get paid so we can feed ourselves and our families and maybe buy something nice or shiny once in a while and save for retirement.

Production of commodities and services, profit-motive, capital accumulation, If that’s not the basis of capitalism, I’m not sure what is?

We’re angry about unbridled end-stage capitalism

Just like with everything in life, there’s a right amount of something and its not zero. Properly regulated free market is probably the best economic system we’ve come up with. I challenge you to come up with a better system.

Its the fact that we’ve voted in greedy leaders and have such lax rules about lobbying and open bribery that’s allowed so much shit to happen.

Most “sanctuaries” are more petting zoos than true sanctuaries.

The real sanctuaries have very strict rules about human/elephant interactions and do not have guests “bathing” elephants or even feeding elephants. Elephants are entirely capable of showering themselves. Forcing them to lie down and roll over to accommodate tourists showering them 3x a day is not part of their natural behavior.

Allowing them a comfortable and safe space to retire where they can be their natural selves is the goal of a real sanctuary. The rest of the places are petting zoos for the owners to enrich themselves under the guise of “altruistic elephant care”

In areas where bananas are native people

Well… Multiverse theory confirmed then…

Just do Onlyfans like that other PhD person
