I usually try to figure out what the weather and temperature are going to be for the duration of time I’m going to be out, plus a little more just in case, and then dress accordingly. So it’s not always about the weather RIGHT NOW, per se

You have big “tipping the waitress a penny for bad service” energy
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Sysadmin@lemmy.world•Admin brought his drill to work, destroyed disks and crashed a datacenter0·8 days agoGood praxis. Everybody should do a little more of this kind of thing at work
It is if I print it on a sticker and slap it on my bong!
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are there any romance movies where there is a male protagonist who is a part of the manosphere?4·10 days agoNo, but this manosphere shit isn’t new. It’s been around since at least the “Men Going Their Own Way” movement in the late 90s and early 2000s, which me too and the Right’s culture wars are a reaction to. So yeah, watch, like, ANY movie starring Michael Douglas, or basically any movie that involves a male/female relationship dynamic and you’ll probably see a LOT of proto-manosphere stuff. (Pretty Woman?)
If we’re extending the metaphor here, then no, things just LOOK better. Like how cgi is so cheap now that they can make stuff that looks like the avengers for the the budget of a(n) (inflation adjusted) episode of the X-Files. The budget is still in the tank, though. Make no mistake

MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto World News@lemmy.world•Uyghur Workers Are Moved to Factories Across China to Supply Global BrandsEnglish8·11 days agoMore than one state can commit a genocide at the same time and they don’t even have to be friends. Ignoring human rights violations because you overcorrected when you found out America was bad is a shitty position, and I advise that you reevaluate your values
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto World News@lemmy.world•Uyghur Workers Are Moved to Factories Across China to Supply Global BrandsEnglish9·11 days agoDon’t try to make this about ethical consumption. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Most Americans don’t even KNOW about the Uyghurs in China. Literally any exposure this horrible situation is doing something.
I think I’ve just come to the conclusion that there is no way you’re going to concede the point that the Chinese are committing atrocious human rights violations, are you?
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto World News@lemmy.world•Uyghur Workers Are Moved to Factories Across China to Supply Global BrandsEnglish11·11 days agoWhat? Not buying Chinese products is somehow evil? I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. Regardless of what the article is advocating for, it’s making a really crucial point about Uyghur slavery, which is fucking evil, and you’re choosing to ignore it
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto World News@lemmy.world•Uyghur Workers Are Moved to Factories Across China to Supply Global BrandsEnglish9·11 days agoIt what ways? By literally opposing both the U.S. AND China and recognize both of their complicity in massive human rights violations? Why are you trying to whataboutism this?
You’d be surprised at how close to true that is. I do use cash for just about everything possible, if by “fake identity” you mean not having a public facing social media account with my real name on it, then yeah I do that too, I don’t know what you mean by business memberships for discounts, so I probably don’t do that either (if this is referring to getting a membership at a grocery store or something, then I just use the local area code plus Jenny’s number- 867-5309), and my phone and computers are encrypted. That’s not a controversial or out there set of stipulations for somebody using a federated social media service.
So yeah, pretty much. Or at least whenever physically possible. If I’m not putting an effort into protecting myself, then what am I even doing?
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto World News@lemmy.world•Uyghur Workers Are Moved to Factories Across China to Supply Global BrandsEnglish246·12 days agoYou don’t have to support any evil. You can choose to not support any of them. Why is it a dichotomy to you?
I don’t care what you like, you’re a stranger on the internet. How casual you are about the trade offs you made genuinely horrifies me, and it’s just another piece of evidence to add to the pile for why our civilization is so fucked.
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto World News@lemmy.world•Uyghur Workers Are Moved to Factories Across China to Supply Global BrandsEnglish6310·12 days agoYou know it’s possible for multiple evils to exist, right? And sometimes they are also adversaries. Yes, the U.S. is evil. Yes, China is evil. Yes, Russia is evil. So in and so forth.
If you like paying to be a product, then that’s on you. What a good little consumer you are. I think it’s kind of weird how much you’re defending this
