If you are a regular meat eater, a family reducing beef consumption to say, once every month or two for special occasions, will reduce your household CO2e emissions by more than keeping your swasticar will save.

Don't let these dorks bully you into fake Carbon Connundrums

That's why to me rape is one of the greatest connundrums for abolitionism, because I do not really see having people in cages as the solution for anything, but I also don't see serial rapists as reformable. Too often they prove this is too deep in them. I think they need their networks of power cut.
I think there's two things, one it's a rape culture that rewards rapists & permits them to rape & favors them above others. The other thing is that a lot of men rape not just as opportunists but because they are particularly natured to derive pleasure from harming even with negative incentives.

We didn't make it like this to sidestep questions of morality but in an attempt to make the moral connundrums more impactful.

But that is due to the context of a larp with frequent attacks throughout an event.

got talking to someone about the phenomenon of maskless conferences earlier and wished i'd had this thread to pass along. definitely still in progress, but—if you're in need of literature to convince a rheumatologist to put a mask on (or similar modern connundrums), hopefully this can be of help.
📌 mega-thread of autoimmunity x covid ❗

things you may find:
- studies showing sars2 infection leads to autoimmunity
- studies showing impacts of sars2 on autoimmune people
- anything else i feel like fits
Wanna be just like me— the shitty part? Get your very own autoimmune disease by joining in with widespread covid denial and government austerity!

Wanna be just like me— the cool part? Ventilate, filter, mask up. #covidcautious

Re Crimea

“He who defends everything, defends nothing.”
― Frederick the Great

A critical point in war is to present the enemy with insoluble connundrums.

Can Putin defend Crimea AND attack in the Donbas?
If he weakens Crimea, to attack elsewhere, will he suffer invasion?

General can have fun.

The Prestige is a WILD movie with incredible ethical connundrums and too much handsomeness for its own good, but I wanted a non-X-Men Hugh Jackman movie in which he is looking superb.

Don't get me wrong, wolverine's mutton chops are on point, but... brooding magician? YES.

I'd say, when writing LitM, we often look to Studio Ghibli works, such as Princess Mononoke for vibe and visuals, while drawing inspiration from folk tales and faerie tales for more everyday fantasy connundrums.

you lucky antipodians...

winter is coming for the top half of the earth & i suppose i for one would rather have gothic women face fashion connundrums than endure the dreary dark cold

maybe there can be gains from trade? it would be a pain for everyone to move, but what if we flip the Earth over?

Talia Lavin has the same issues/connundrums and she moved her newletter to buttondown. Not sure what the costs are, but that's a possible alternative.

If a criminal liability free Executive is later found to be criminal, are the criminals he pardoned still liability free? Modern American legal connundrums in the runaway-money-in-politics-bribery-is-fine era initiated by the money governed well bribed corrupt SCOTUS.

it's unflinchingly optimistic, yet at times fascinatingly pragmatic about solving its more complicated social connundrums

it's forgiving to a fault, yet at its best it manages to earn that forgiveness through the depth of its writing
