finally, ethical consumption under capitalism, for vegetarians!

wrong link, op

not a naughty name, but I wonder what was the scientist who named “Yellow-bellied sapsucker” was going through

Air Bud

I remember seeing ads on my phone saying “if you bought a game on steam, you could be entitled to financial compensation” since like a year and a half ago. I didn’t look any further cause I didn’t wanna see a thousand ads for legal mumbo jumbo, but I just thought there were a few isolated incidents of ripoff pricing or phony game sales

women? having SEXUAL URGES? AUGH!! (clutches pearls so hard they turn to diamonds) /s

yeah for some reason, women liking sexual stuff is frowned upon in society while men are encouraged to like it

But what if it isn’t available on Amazon?

12ft.io

if you see an article online but it asks for a subscription before you can read it, you can put the webpage of that article in 12ft.io and it’ll give you a version you can read without such guards. The person who made it says there’s a special code in those sites that doesn’t block the article for search engines, as doing so would cause the google/bing/etc to block that result. So they just found that code and put it in a webpage for you

there was Dailymotion (well techincally still is) but it lost traction after banning nudity (like half their site was “wardrobe malfunction” related content). Then again, there wasn’t too much traction there to begin with due to data limits, especially for newer users. There’s a lot of alternative sites that claim they’re a more ethical youtube alternative, but they’re niche at best, and getting any traffic comparable to a fraction of youtube traffic is an uphill battle not unlike Sisyphus’s boulder

People who actively contribute to horrible acts dying. Or at least getting proper receipts for wretched behavior (arrests, bankrupcy, etc.)

Thanks for the correction. That helps me better understand how counteracting pollution works

aside from the obvious “rich people exploiting the environment with their hippy party that costs $200 for their cheapest tickets,” I saw a video online that brought up a good point that I never considered. The cost of lumber has increased exponentially in the past 3 years alone, jumping to nearly $1700 per 1000 feet at its peak in 2021, but staying between $400 and $600 per 1000 feet in recent months (still high compared to say 10 years ago.) And these people are buying tens of thousands of feet of lumber solely to burn it away in the middle of nowhere where there’s little vegetation to absorb the excess CO2 waste. That, along with the climate change protesters being police brutalized just before the event, really puts a sour taste in people’s mouths. Especially in a time where “once in a lifetime” weather events seem to be back-to-back.
