Production caps, energy expenditure caps, more efficient redistribution systems. Basically “produce what we need and then stop.” Redirect energy from acquiring more resources to developing intellectual thought and artistic talent.

I couldn’t sleep from 3:30-5 last night. Coughing and blowing my nose. Interview this morning. Didn’t do my readings for yesterday or today. Don’t really want to be existing right now.

I tried those sesame ball things recently and they’re so good. happy new year.

It already gets political ?s even though it’s not supposed to. Taking out the rule just encourages even MORE of them.

I made the local paper when I was 8 years old. It was a cute little picture of me fixing my friend’s hair band before our may crowning. That was it.

Threads. It’s better if you want a normal social media experience (which I realize a lot of people on lemmy do not).

You should probably seek out some therapy to learn to make friends, because at your age it will not happen unless you make it happen.

this actually did show me slightly better results, although the results were nowhere near a slam dunk.

really you don’t. you read forum posts and try to guess to what degree the information is credible.

If I’m less under the weather, I’m going to be cleaning the apartment for a guest on Sunday. or I’ll be in bed all day. we’ll find out.

in college, a group of sorority girls ran up on this guy’s motorcycle and started doing an impromptu pin up girl style photoshoot on it. for the finale she spread her legs out. then they ran off. this was in public.

So we have specific polling locations we have to vote at, and in my state there’s literally a book with a list of names of everyone who will vote that day. They mark the book as you come in. So, if I vote first, the other person will be immediately caught. If the other person votes first, then it will get complicated and depend on your local rules. I would guess I will have to show ID, talk to police, and do a special ballot, but they don’t really make these procedures public. Because voting fraud is extraordinarily rare. Also the person would need to go to the correct polling location, which there are dozens of in my city. The odds of a scammer doing that correctly are low.

Personally I don’t need ID or finger print scanner to vote. I am a registered voter, so I give my name and vote. That’s literally it. That’s what voter registration is for. Like, the entire premise that our voting integrity is somehow flawed is ridiculous. We have a list. We count it to make sure it checks out. The people that try to scam the system get caught and go to jail.

what do you expect when you retract the plans people signed and then don’t allow them to sign up for a new one…

People are people. Whether you live a happy and fulfilling life depends on your ability to cope with suffering.

Each individual decides that for themselves. Personally I’ve always thrown away the food I don’t want. If I didn’t want it, no way my mom would.

I tried a hatch salsa this week. It was $7 but it’s so flavorful. Would recommend. I also got some Whole Foods guacamole with it, so dinner is good this week.

You don’t need to study law to be able to tell that somebody did something heinous or not.

A lot of heinous things aren’t necessarily against the law. For example, there’s an email in the file from a law professor advising him on legally trafficking minors to states with lower ages of consent.

let us see them and decide ourselves if that conclusion is reasonable.

Non-lawyers have zero capacity to do that, though. There’s a big difference between what any one person wants the law to be and what it actually is.
