RIF for kbin

Face down on the bathroom tiles, ass up high with legs & cheeks spread as far wide as possible. Only way to handle my dump truck

so long as young people generally don’t care to vote, people who have no stake in the future will be the only choices.

for kbin users, change your filter by time and keep it on hot ^^

I applaud the small victories where they occur but global demand for meat is increasing exponentially with the rise of newly emerging countries.

Despite clear concerns about climate breakdown viewed as an issue of a global emergency by two thirds of 1 million people surveyed from 50 countries, switching to plant-based dietary choices was not seen positively as the solution In a recent simulation study, Henchion et al. reported the projected demand for animal-based protein until 2050 and noted that decreases in meat consumption in European and American regions were possible, should effective policies be implemented to support a more sustainable food system. However, the study reported that these decreases would be accompanied by increased consumption in African and South-East Asian regions, rendering little change to the global average

The global meat demand is projected to continue rising until the 2050s in the best case scenarios. It will quadruple demand from the year 2000

That’s the easiest solution, the best for the environment and probably our collective health. I just dont see it as realistic to do. People have an emotional attachment to meat and the industry has a powerful lobby in basically every government. I encourage everyone to do their part in reducing consumption but I think fighting for systemic regulation for meat access is an impossible battle. Cell culture/meat alternatives to price out conventional meat over time and advances in science to combat antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria.

unless cell cultured meats come in a big way or there is a drastic reduction for demand of meat, overuse of antibiotics in the meat industry will continue which will just keep driving antibiotic resistance in bacteria even further. I don’t really have faith in governments to regulate this (doing so would basically kill factory farming) so relying on new treatments is all I can suggest.

bacteoiphage treatments for super resistant bacteria will become standard in the coming decades.

Verse

Typically we break into smaller groups to play gta v or golf with your friends. But we have a valheim server we chill on and this week we all got really into battle bits

touchscreens becoming so good so quick blew my mind. Seeing how quick it went from clunky stylus palm pilots to fluid smartphones gave me whiplash.

sad seeing how many of them folded straight away

I just tell people that each instance is like a country and users are able to move and interact with each other. Some countries revoke passport rights to/from other countries.

I think it’s okay if it doesn’t happen overnight. As long as the instances of the Verse get more developed and users remain engaged, more will come. Reddit will decay into Facebook lite and other forums will thrive.

there’s no pressure my dude, ultimately it’s just an internet forum. Everyone adding their own content, even shit posting, helps the verse get better. Don’t be afraid to start your own mag and spread your ideal. build and they shall come.

Demagoguery, something that Socrates critiqued as a product of democratic systems.

Socrates imagined an election between a doctor and a candy store owner. The doctor would tell the populace what they didn’t want to hear.
As Socrates described it, the candy store owner would say of the physician that he works many evils on you. He hurts you, gives you bitter potions, tells you not to eat and drink whatever you like. What fun is that? The candy store owner, however, would offer sweets and tasty things. He would appeal to what people wanted, not what they needed. He would provide easy and popular answers to all their difficult problems

unfortunately we have too many candy store politicians across the globe.

As we approach July I think it’s best we stop focusing on Reddit. Just let it slowly drown and instead work on making this place the community we know it can be.

some of the first posts i see on kbin from other instances are about a major defederation lol. not ideal since this is happening when the fediverse is growing… but I suppose this is the intent behind the fediverse.
