Classic Obvious Plant

EmpathicVagrant,

We need a community for obvious plant stuff tbh.

macrocarpa, in Low-hanging fruit 🥱

I have a solution for the gun violence problem in schools. Print simple steps on common causes and solutions to the underlying social and mental contributors. Put these up in every door, hallway and classroom in every schools. Then these poor misguided kids would have troubleshooting.

Maggoty,

Ow. That hurt.

Zulu, in We are doing again?

The stones will cry nut was how i read it at first and it got a laugh from me

JimmyBigSausage, in Beautiful

Sounds great but who is paying for it?

Have you heard of this idea called “taxes?”

More than that, are you familiar with the idea of taxes being spent on more than just bloated military and police?

JimmyBigSausage,

Ok just wondering

Stop JAQing off

Bonskreeskreeskree,

Just curious, do you want everyone living in cookie cutter multifamily boxes or are people allowed to have houses and different size pieces of land and buildings in your utopia?

Its easier, for most, to imagine the end of the world than the end of Capitalism.

SnotFlickerman,
@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

A fan of Zizek film analysis? That’s definitely one of his positions, related to how much post-apocalyptic media still portrays capitalism in practice post-apocalypse.

Slavoj Zizek / Pervert’s Guide to Ideology / Pervert’s Guide to Cinema

Cold_Brew_Enema,

Can you tell me how to get to the fantasy land you are living in where this is possible?

spfhaar,

Tell me what type of society you are imagining please, in the real world it is already difficult for the average entrepreneur not to evade VAT on at least 30% of his purchases, because if we don’t talk about Nordic countries or Switzerland then I don’t see it feasible how people can accept even more interventions from the government in their lives.

Ensign_Crab,

Questions no one ever asks about bailouts or the military.

Bye,

The bailouts were loans. The us govt got that money back.

Those banks should have been punished though, allowed to fail.

Tak,
@Tak@lemmy.ml avatar

Didn’t the bailouts return less money with inflation though? We can’t even give students less interest than inflation with student loans. If the tables were turned the banks wouldn’t have taken less than 5% interest.

Ensign_Crab,

They didn’t know that they would get the money back at the time.

JimmyBigSausage,

This is true.

pearsaltchocolatebar,

And?

Do you have a cost analysis on giving everyone free housing? I’d wager it’s astronomically higher than bailouts or the military.

Grayox,
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

Society should work towards a better life for all, not better profits for a few.

pearsaltchocolatebar,

I don’t disagree, but that platitude has absolutely nothing to do with the discussion at hand.

Your comic said to cancel all rent and mortgages and give everyone a house, which is not even remotely economically feasible.

Grayox,
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

Its not economically feasible because modern economics functions to create monetary value not tangible value for our society. You shouldn’t view it through the lense of what is “economically feasible” we should view it through the lense of what we should value as a society. Homelessness exists as a motivating coercive force to keep us buying into a system that would kick us to the curb if any of us were dealt a few bad hands in life. Its why our insurance is tied to our employment. The system is fundamentally broken for humanity to exsist inside of healthily, so much so that alot of us cant even imagine a society outside of it.

null,

Lots of “what”, zero “how”.

The second i read this comment, the State Anthem of the USSR got stuck in my head.

null, (edited )

Yawn. Let us know when you have actionable steps. Daydreaming is easy and worthless.

Grayox,
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

My guy, you are aware the the whole point of the solar punk movement is about using daydreaming and art about an ideal utopia to help bring it about right? Imagination is one of humanity’s superpowers, and I’m currently building the class conciousness necessary to have an actionable future, where the end goal is an extremely solar punk esc future, I am not under the illusion that I will live to seek the future I am fighting for, but that doesnt mean I’m not going to keep working towards it by spreading its message.

null, (edited )

Yawn. Still no answers about the basics.

“Let’s just end murder” – Wow, I’m engaging in important political thinking!

Grayox,
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

Yawn, adding nothing to the conversation while shitting on it.

null, (edited )

Nope, I think others have contributed meaningfully and I’m supporting what they’re saying.

You on the other hand refuse to engage with anything of substance. That’s what I’m shitting on.

Grayox,
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

null,

How original.

Keep patting yourself on the back for shallow thinking, I guess.

Grayox,
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

Will do!

Man how many oils memes do you have

CurlyMoustache,
@CurlyMoustache@lemmy.world avatar

Oil of them!

dingus,

He’s doing asbestos he can

MissJinx,
@MissJinx@lemmy.world avatar

The angry oil rant is funnier than most of the memes. I’m laughing out loud

Limeey, in MACHETE

I’m know it’s a meme, but a lot of people actually live like this. It’s part of that insanity of fear that people live in. “Except one” implies that it’s inevitable that you’ll be attacked in the night.

It’s just like the psychos who stock up on guns, they’re positive that “it’s only a matter of time”

People are fuckin stupid

flamingo_pinyata,

It’s not paranoia if they are really after you

geogle,
@geogle@lemmy.world avatar

It could still be paranoia

dynamo, (edited )

Better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it.

Long as you don’t go overboard, i think it’s perfectly reasonable to have something to defend yourself with. Granted, i would think a reasonable amount of guns to have for home defence would be 1, but i’m european so i dunno

jdeath, in Which pill do you choose?

I’m not sure if people here realize this, but the interest from $10m is approximately four to eight hundred thousand dollars per year.

So, with ten million, one could instantly retire and never ever have to work again.

That’s priceless freedom to me, and it wouldn’t require deleting almost all of my friends, relationships, experiences, and who I am.

Uiop,

well, clearly you have a good investment plan…

jdeath,

just an index fund is all you need.

Crack0n7uesday, in Wrong explanations only

This is how we mine for the spice.

Dagnet, in Playing an unsupported file

And then you have mpv that will play anything ever, even a .txt with “interesting movie” written in it

Pantherina,

Any Player will not be able to decode some files if they are downloaded in pieces and not even the header data is complete.

Turun,

It depends, there are decent chances you’ll get the video to play from the next I frame onwards.

DumbAceDragon, in Which pill do you choose?
@DumbAceDragon@sh.itjust.works avatar

Red pill, because it’ll eventually take me back to this moment and then I’ll pick the blue pill.

Demuniac,

You would not need the blue pill at that point. Just invest in Google and Microsoft and get some early bitcoin

ziixe,
@ziixe@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Except not since you would have to replicate your current life to the smallest thing imaginable, and if you didn’t it would cause a butterfly effect meaning you probably wouldn’t get this opportunity anymore

acutfjg,

That’s assuming your have to fall into specific parameters to get this offer.

psud,

They just need to not be critical to the creation of lemmy

Tremors prequel

Sharpiemarker, in Well actually.

Some might even call it an Odyssey

Adi2121,

“So that’s it, huh. What are we, some kind of, Odyssey?”

mononomi, in Axe desire

Were hearts a symbol even back in ancient japan? Didn’t know they were around for so long

usualsuspect191,

Apparently so, although it seems to have a separate history and meaning from other historical uses. From Wikipedia:

Since ancient times in Japan, the heart symbol has been called Inome (猪目), meaning the eye of a wild boar, and it has the meaning of warding off evil spirits. The decorations are used to decorate Shinto shrines, Buddhist temples, castles, and weapons.

ComradeR, in I might move again. (Or not)

I’m still on lemmy.ml instance since my first day here! And this is the only account I have.

We don’t know what is going to happen tomorrow… But, at least for awhile, I have no regrets at all!

    I highly doubt that most people use that term to refer to female dogs.

    First,

    Shut up, female dog!

    pete_the_cat,

    What the hell is your deal?

    pete_the_cat,

    Same, I signed up to Lemmy.world and have been on here for probably a good 4-5 months. If you browse the federated network instead of just your local server it doesn’t matter what server you use AFAIK.
