What if someone richer than the peach grower took a picture of the peaches, and then demanded everyone else pay them instead of the peach grower for copies of the photo of the peaches? Would you still be upset if the peach photographer didn’t make money from every single person who obtained a copy of the photo of the peaches? In some cases, the peach grower got paid before the photo started being sold, in other cases the peach grower gets 0.0004% of the profit from each peach photo sold.

They always did seem to get louder when a wave of heat would roll over the area.

It gets better, because all the money they “lost” on a movie they can also write off. Oops, we didn’t make any money this year because we put out 10 billion dollar movies and only made 10 million at the box office. Tax break please!

Yeah but the sexual harassment never stops!

Would you be ok with a limited spooky season if it came with a ban (enforced by the death penalty, no trial), on Xmas music outside of a 36 hour window starting at noon on Xmas eve?

There’s always openings in front line infantry!

things aren’t as rosy as they were a couple of years ago

A couple of years ago it was a thornbush with no roses, so what does that say about now?

The rich are actively trying to be yote into space. All we’re saying is redirect their rockets to ensure they don’t come home again.

Delightfully exactly 250 years from the US’s Declaration of Independence!

Reagan.

Pro-fracking, pro having a fascist in their Cabinet, pro-war profiteering even during a genocide, and you call it the most left-leaning ticket in ages? I hate that I have to agree, but I don’t think it’s as strong of a point as you’d like it to be.

does fuck all for years and springs up when it’s convenient

Oh I didn’t know she was a Democrat.

My butthole is a marker unless I get a whiff of fiber, at which point it turns into a firehose. The only time I get a decent poop is when my diet is mostly sugar, cheese, and meat.

Helmet? What are you, some kind of weakling who has a brain to protect? Get a Harley, that’s a motorcycle for us big overcompensators, and we don’t do helmets, because there’s nothing up there to protect!

Gross, I can’t believe anyone would do something so disgusting! Using a plastic spatula making everything taste like melted plastic.

Since the lie that plastic can be recycled resulted in a massive increase in the amount of plastic being used over actually recyclable materials like glass and aluminum, it does, in fact, do more harm than good.

Since I’m not planning on having any children, I can eat 7 times as much meat as I do now and still net a reduction in CO2! And I don’t like flying, so that brings me up to almost 10x as much meat in my diet!

Yes, all those things would have been accomplished sooner if the British had stayed on their own little island. I agree.

What’s an easier solution, in your opinion? Getting the ultra wealthy to give up their yachts and jets (by getting rid of the ultra wealthy entirely, which also addresses the evils of capitalism), or convincing hundreds of millions of people to change just about everything about the diet they’ve been eating for tens of thousands of years?

The UN doesn’t even have any influence with the UN. Even if I supported lethal enforcement of environmental protections (which I do in many cases), the UN’s idea of enforcement is a kindly-worded letter. If the USA doesn’t back something the UN has no power. And the USA is one of literally only two countries in the entire world that don’t recognize access to healthy food as a human right.
