How‽ Also it amazes me that they thought peer pressuring kids into practicing saying no will ensure they're resistant to peer pressure.

Also, absolutely fucking wild to think anyone has ever had to choose between doing these two things, him especially. Motherfucker you could've just traded with them then went home

It's also kinda really fucked up from the kid's perspective. Listening to his daughter talk about how much it fucked with her that he did sex selective ivf, I can't imagine how much worse it will be for these kids to grow up knowing they were literally paid for to advance a billionaire's breeding ideology

Listen I've got garuda (the only thing I touch if I can help it), windows 11 (idk why but it hasn't been able to update in a long time, so it's basically useless), windows 10 on hdd (actually might be 8), and a 10 year old copy of Ubuntu on an hdd as my boot options because I just copied my college hdds when I upgraded them a few years ago.

I'm very pro secondhand goods but I prefer when they're sold because the owner is done using them not because the owner had to choose between keeping it and making rent

Listen I love me a giant statue, surely we can find a common ground. The right wants giant statues to be of rich white men, I say Kropotkin it is.

They made a flat one too?

I fucking love kanban. No I will not assume you need something, flip the card and I'll do it for you

This is lemmy, we'll encourage you to eat beans for all scenarios

There are a lot of things she does but that aint one of them

The lethality and equal bearings were the point. Chess boxing just leaves it open to strong people threatening to beat you up if you have a problem. Dueling was you agreeing you're willing to kill or die for your honor

Violence is an answer, but the thing is that violence alone is a stupid answer as per history. Serbia did not have a good time when a Serbian national shot Franz Ferdinand. The assassination of the czar did far less to stop the czarist regime than an international women's day protest did (and yes, that protest evolved to violence, but it didn't start there). Before John Brown can be effective you need The Abolitionist making people oppose slavery so that there are large portions of the public who see it as "man risks life to free fellow humans from life of incredible cruelty" rather than "schizophrenic Calvinist attacks rich people with sword, steals property"

Violence is the final fallback for when discussion fails, but you need to be certain you have a chance whenever you escalate in ways that can turn off the average person, otherwise you just make the state's job of justifying its overwhelming violence against you easier.
