    Ha, good one. Which one of the two major dystopian police states are you referring to? "feel sour" - is that a chinese phrase? sounds familiar. You can interpret my comment negativ…

    Seems we have some different definitions as I try to ignore most of it. To me cancel culture seems like the trend of a mob of whiners to start to whine about something until its ca…

    "cancel culture that basically doesn't actually exist" That's funny. My definition of it certainly does but then I'm just referring to bleeding-hearts like you. Most of the HN down…

    Whiners gotta whine. Toxic 'cancel culture' more like, which is a bigger problem these days. Quiting a shitty job is pretty satisfying and it provides direct feedback that things n…

    No, more like, instead of whining, men just quit jobs that suck aka "take this job and shove it". And/or fire problem workers..

    Cliffhanger. His unfinished concept of comparing money to a chair leaves readers "confused, disoriented and exploitable" enough to pitch his newsletter signup at the end. What is h…

    Gates is supporting many good solutions but this quote about trees is false. As outlined in the book The Treesolution, it's just "2 billion hectares of trees to disconnect all pres…

    Yes people need to pushback against the overly politically-correct. I think the pressure to enforce covid lockdowns is as ridiculous as these people wanting to censure Dr Seuss. Wh…

    Where there's a will, there's a way. Have you checked out crowdfunding these days? It's probably never been easier.

    Bueno. Thanks for sharing your perspective. You seem to be making relatively decent money there. If you want more, make some moves. I should have been more clear in that while I'm …

    Good point. Convenience rules. But I was certainly trained to buy peanut butter instead of putting peanuts in a blender. When the only source of food are giant super markets 95% fi…
