Yeah, I was a bit strategically ambiguous, because there are edge cases that could really make it go either way.

Most victimless (or self-victimising) crimes should be legal.

There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part; you can’t even passively take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop. And you’ve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you’re free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!

Just dropped by to make sure this comment was here... twice.

I'm having a c-section, cause ain't no way that's coming out of my pp.

But when I looked outside of the United States, I found that basically every other country with a major wildfire season is now giving crews masks to protect against smoke. And they have not seen an increase in heat stroke. Firefighters are not collapsing because they’re getting too hot. They basically just take off the mask if they’re starting to overheat.

My sources at the Forest Service told me what’s really going on here is a fear of admitting how dangerous smoke is. They said if the Forest Service were to acknowledge how risky it is to work in smoke, the agency might have to start taking on a lot of extra costs. It might have to start paying for more health care. Or hiring more firefighters so that workers could take breaks. And it could also just become harder to recruit for these jobs that are already pretty grueling and low-paying.

Seems the orphan crushing machine is working as designed.

My first assumption was that it was only the Democrats voting, which seems to have been the case, as it was a DNC internal vote. If there were more than democrats voting on it, then to say that it was the democrats who were voting would seem to me to be unnecessary or misleading.

They certainly could have mentioned the DNC in the title to make it more more clear, though.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

To be fair, I didn't lose any weight after going vegan. You can still stuff your face with vegan junk food. Lol.

I ate tofu before I was vegan, but man I've upped my tofu game since then. Pan fry it and finish with sesame oil and soy sauce, and its a game changer.

I know it's a bit of a meme to say "you just haven't had the right one yet", but I think a lot of people get the idea of mushy plain tofu and are rightly turned off. It's so frickin good when you make it right.

Here's the recipe I use.

This seems like either a deliberate attempt to coopt the term "enshitification" or someone talking out of their ass.
