Pretty annoying how Silicon Valley dudes act like unprecedented visionaries and how tech revolutions haven't happened before. No, we've seen this bruh. Victorian industrialists saw themselves as futurists too, ur just a new Thomas Edison. Ur a Carnegie without the libraries
@Nick_Davidov "When I was a child watching the invention of the steam engine, I was excited. But here in Victorian London, why do the kids look so hopeless? They think coal isn't something you mine, coal mining is something that just happens to you"
@clashreport The poor beast could not even understand why it was being punished, how to make it stop, how to escape, why they were doing this to him. Only that it would die. How can you do this to an innocent?
@birdwarehouse_ American horses aren't invasive, they're feral, and some consider naturalizing. They have benign or positive effects on the environment unless overpopulated, like deer do, which should be solved through less brutal means than helicopter hunting
@coughdropsh ??? I'm an ecologist. Horses play a similar role in the Western ecosystem that Pleistocene equids did. They're not considered invasive, but feral
@clitbait_ You legit can't be friends with women in relationships bc they'll be like "he microwaved my hamster" and u say "maybe leave him" and they look at you like you legit suggested genocide

@sarobertson_ If Carney had accepted the deal, his political career would've been over. We don't wanna be forced to buy their overpriced planes, we dont wanna be a resource colony, we don't want to get bullied into selling off everything for cheap
@KittsaTease@tboyblues Building a 6 storey wood frame residential would help plenty of people even if it doesn't come with a yoga room and geriatric care facility, but COPE still complained about it. We are on a 70 YEAR housing backlog
