They demand to be treated the same as car-drivers....until that's not convenient for them, then they blow stop signs/lights and weave through stopped traffic and act like it's your fault if you're in their way.

I heard growing the fuck up and eating like an adult works.

True.
I've tried to change by tastes, but I always end up vomiting. I'd rather take a supplement, than dread every meal. Do you have anything useful to contribute?


If you're puking that's not being "a picky eater" that's a major food allergy. Go to the doctor.

That's the thing, nobody actually WANTS to stop climate change.

It's great to go on twitter and rant about "things have to change", but as long as you want to keep driving your car, eating meat, and having an abundance of goods to purchase at low/not-insane prices, the climate is going to continue to change

No one is forcing them to play. Its a risk they accept for the trade off of a dream job that will make them rich.

I don't think they all know the risks. but especially kids. remember, it's not just the nfl. people support highschool football where kids who know nothing risk breaking their necks. the parents, and teachers and coaches never tell the kids about the risks


Are you really trying to claim that kids are too stupid to understand that running into other people repeatedly at high speed carries a risk of injury?

Jackson is with people like Roosevelt where they helped the economy


He literally created a financial crisis that led to a seven-year long recession that was so bad children born during it ended up shorter than the previous generation due to malnutrition.

But he was a populist so some idolize him. He was for the common man, like the Venezuelan government.


He also stopped the Civil War from starting 30ish years earlier than it did...that counts for something.

Catastrophic population growth, depletion of natural resources, overcrowding, massive pollution/climate change. It's not like people are suddenly going to stop having children just because they can no longer die.

It's by no means scientific, but this is a really entertaining short novel about the exact situation you're talking about.

you do understand that they can't die right?



like, what you need natural resources for?
what the pollution and climate going to do to an immortal?


We still need space, and without people becoming worm food, our already dwindling livable areas would fill up faster. Yay, I live forever, but I can't get where I'm going for all the people or have to live in Antarctica to get some breathing room.

And natural resources doesn't just mean food. Paper, metals, lumber, oil for plastics, all stuff made from limited materials that would now have to meet an infinity growing demand. That of course implies what we'd give up food because we don't need it. In reality, most of us like to eat for enjoyment.

Pollution may not kill you, but it still fucks with comfort levels.


This guy gets it. The entire planet would look like Brazil's "City of God" favela. Hooray, just how I want to live for eternity!

Businesses must make a profit to exist.

It's safe to assume that all current, successful businesses have found a balance between how much they have to charge for their goods/services to offset the overhead (including worker salaries) and still make profit.

Therefore, if a law artificially jacks up worker salaries, the only way for a business to regain that balance and continue to exist is to jack up the cost of their goods/services.

I do not wish to pay more for goods and services, therefore I want the minimum wage to remain low. Seems simple?
