But your “fair and balanced” puts all the onus of clean up on the next person. Kind of like how parking far to one side of a parking spot puts all onus of creating enough space for people to get out of their car on the next person.
It’s passing the buck because you can’t be bothered to clean up after yourself.
You’re the kind of person who parks all the way on the passenger side of a parking spot, aren’t you?
As someone who used to take care of office supplies (I was in accounting, btw) because everyone in the office is lazy and doesn’t wanna deal with complex things like grounds and filters.
The Orville had that in the first season or so, after that it went heavy into serialization. I dont think I even finished whatever the last season was because of it.
Battlestar Galactica. Like a lot of the shows people have been mentioning, all it did was raise the stakes every episode. It didn’t feel like it was building anything meaningful, just building up to something.
The most meaningful example of this (spoilers for like a twenty year old show) for me was when they’re in the ship looking for water or whatever and the human cylon just ignores the indicator saying “Water here! Check here!” and the scene just. keeps. going. I swear it felt like half the episode.
I miss when shows could just grow in the first season or two, and then you’d only get raising stakes two or three times a year (season finale/premier and sweeps). Otherwise they’re just stories.
These days shows have to justify themselves right out of the gate.
That we think in absolutes, and either are hyper violent or apathetic, both of which lead to no real resolution? Yeah, definitely a real problem.
Some people also wear a label as a badge of honor, or as an excuse for their malign actions. Elon has little to lose with his claims, and so much to excuse.
The only reason to believe it would be better with less people is delusional fantasy.
The problem isn’t population, it’s policy.
Because they’re not communist. At best they’re state capitalism, at worst they’re dictatorships, which is just capitalism with less steps.
Cities aren’t generally overcrowded because they have no other choice, they’re overcrowded because cities typically offer the best opportunities. If the population were to drop three quarters overnight, people would flock to cities.
Land use is also about want, not need. We don’t have to do it to sustain our population and its growth, it’s just the cheapest (re: most profitable) option.
The odds are 1000:0 that they won’t, and I still wouldn’t take that bet.
Egger suits are expensive these days.
“Working on” implies pre-production, at least to my understanding.
Then again if game companies can do Early Access, why not banks?
So we should make one with human intelligence, you’re saying?
Mean old caca heads, the lot of them.
Okay, but hear me out, what if we make one that isn’t dumb?
The difference being we do know who they are and why they’re doing it, it’s just our leaders aren’t doing enough to stop them because of “The Economy”.
It’s not about citizenship, it’s about access. They know that it doesn’t guarantee citizenship or protection, that’s what the rest of their money is for.
You mean aside from all the founding fathers in jars?
