The U,S. Mail delivery system is owned by the Oligarch Cartel that also owns Congress and numerous govt. institutions. It's nothing but an "ADS TO YOUR DOOR/mailbox" junk-mail delivery service. SHUT IT DOWN!!! It's actual f*ing SPAM in physical form.
I swear, every square inch and cm of the United States is for sale. Disgusting. Disappointing.
We need oil gas and plastics. Oil and gas in the short/ medium term (meaning 10-20 years) but plastics potentially for the foreseeable
we have alternative energy sources and so oil and gas should be (needs to be) the priority to wean off of but the scaling up of these needs to be properly managed
Plastics I do not see an alternative to as an end product, however it is possible to use "bio sources" to make plastic precursors so there's a route through there but the scaling is nowhere right now
Single use plastics are a viable target but durable plastics I think are with us for the long term
Everything everywhere all at once was a great, enjoyable, fun movie but did not deserve best movie and Jamie Lee Curtis basically got a lifetime award which was unfair to the other actresses
The behaviours that the youth detest in elders were acceptable in the elders youth. All that changed was time. It'll happen to you, too, and you won't give a fuck what the kids are saying.
Ignorance and/or tradition are not excuses for continuing bad behavior, though.
The "acceptable" behaviors were actually wrong then just like they are now. Getting away with something bad doesn't make it not bad.
Being forgiven isn't the same as getting permission. I think we can forgive people for their past bad behavior in light of the fact that it was accepted at the time. Especially if they acknowledge it's wrong and don't continue to do it.
