I don’t have nuts so I don’t really have a say in this but you could never get me to put Nair in the more sensitive parts of my genitalia. Ball skin is so thin and sensitive, I can’t imagine that burn.

This is just a Denny’s ad and I know this because I worked there for more than 10 years and we used these exact pictures for probably that entire time.
It’s hugely dependent on a lot of factors but what I can say for sure that’s helped for me personally:
I know veggies, even when they’re not local, are cheaper than a lot of processed food but not when we’re talking convenience and energy spent. Having the energy to prep and cook fresh produce, as well as a local market within walking distance have been the biggest factors for me.
I know I’m a pessimist but I feel like this is another one of those issues where we take the mask off and it’s just that monster capitalism underneath.
Me failing a perception check six (6!) times in a row
Omg I guess I’ve been tricked. I had read that they were mostly in at least the US but now can’t find any evidence to support that. Gotta do my homework better I guess.
There’s one company that is making them that has customers all over north america but I guess it’s not as common as I thought. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/plastic-sticker-produce-ban-alternative-1.6844972
The stickers are compostable and edible already
Editing to say I’m a liar I guess, since I couldn’t find proof to back this claim and have just been eating plastic sometimes.
I was listening to this podcast that had an ad for a government system to help out people experiencing substance use (specifically alcohol) issues…directly followed by a government liquor store ad. In every single episode.
Shout out to that time when I was like 11 and tried to download a lil bow wow song and my sister and I were greeted with a full screen p-in-v POV amateur porn on the family computer.
I mean, there’s plenty of billionaires so it doesn’t have to be both at the same time.
Ok but only because of that prozzac song lol
Idk this is probably about the most entertaining thing I’ve seen from this whole Reddit debacle and I’m kind of here for it.
I didn’t get the reference but I just thought the comment was funny. (I’m old but just not familiar with a lot of things)
I’m not a finance expert but I feel like in the long run it’d be cheaper to raise the death benefit or subsidize cremation services than to build dead body storage facilities all over the country.
That was an example, but it doesn’t necessarily need to be taking the children away. “Re-education” with the intent to remove someone’s ethnical/cultural background is cultural genocide. The idea of “kill the Indian and save the man”, in this case would be like “kill the Uighur and save the person”. But I don’t know enough about the specifics in China and I’m not arguing that what they’re doing is specifically cultural genocide, I’m just saying that cultural genocide is real and does occur.
And I very strongly disagree that the civil war was cultural genocide. Just because the majority of the people who were on the losing side were white doesn’t mean they were targeted indiscriminately JUST for being white (that’s the key difference here). They were not targeted because of the way they looked or the language they spoke or where they were born. Racism and oppression are not cultural or human rights.
Equating white American culture to the racism that specifically Confederate and Neo-N*zis were and continue to advocate for is very much “I’m German so the swastika is my heritage” vibes.
Yeah but cultural genocide (ethnocide) doesn’t refer to just kill off parts of a culture. It’s a systemic approach, usually backed by law, to destroy the entire ethnicity and cultural norms.
Take for example what the Canadian government calls the cultural genocide of indigenous people in Canada. Their intention was not to kill the parts of indigenous culture that they didn’t like, but it was forced assimilation through legal action and through removing children from their culture. It was remove/ban/destroy all indigenous culture - very “kill the Indian and save the man”. That is cultural genocide.
In your example, the “destruction” of racism in American culture was not led by a government and not led against any ethnic group directly. Nobody was taking Confederate kids away from their family to teach them the “right” way.
Yes cultures change and adapt, but ethnocide is the very intentional move to do everything possible to destroy that culture. Will it adapt? Sure, yes, indigenous cultures have been extremely resilient and survived in Canada. but to say that it wasn’t cultural genocide is to ignore the fact that children were literally ripped from their families in order to stop them from practicing their culture, or that cultural meetings and even just any type of meeting within their own groups was outlawed.
Indian children should be withdrawn as much as possible from the parental influence, and the only way to do that would be to put them in central training industrial schools where they will acquire the habits and modes of thought of white men.
That’s a quote from our first prime minister. That is what I mean when I say cultural genocide.
Cultural genocide is intentional. And much of the time, as I mentioned before, it is a facet of violent genocide because it leads to deaths and multigenerational trauma. Even if the government wasn’t going in and killing people en masse and intentionally - which is how genocide is technically defined - there’s no way that this is not a type of genocide.
Thank you for the breakdown. I’m very genuinely curious about this cultural bed sharing thing but the only thing I’m finding is that it’s common amongst family, not with guests. (I’m not questioning you, I’m just actually curious about this)
Another question - do you mean to say that you don’t think cultural genocide is a thing (whether in this situation or not)? Cause it’s definitely a facet of regular genocide, even genocide-lite.
And honestly if they’re looking for affordability, I have a $25 mi fit (or at least that’s what it cost when I bought it 6 years ago) that has the same functionality. The app for it is shit, but it does the job.
I have the opposite problem where I know there are better alternative routes but google refuses to acknowledge them.
