  • If you have the money for it a water bottle with a filter (even just the carbon Brita ones) improve the taste immensely. I use an Epic water filter for everything and it makes nearly all water taste good*.

    • The only exception I had was the Atlanta airport I have no clue what the fuck was going on their but the water was disgusting.

    Also worth noting: don’t use a filtered water bottle for filtering water that has contaimints you are actually worried about consuming; none except for grayl actually match their claimed results with third party testing.








  • I am trying so hard to not just make snarky comments but Jesus fucking Christ can you actually read the quote you posted and think about what they may be talking about?

    I’m not on twitter and never have been. That significantly impacts the information that I recive and I am usually getting news a day or so later than people that are on twitter. That has social consequences and means that I am less able to talk about recent events. That’s just one example on how you can not separate yourself from the information economy without negatively impacting your socialization.




  • I am recently (last few weeks recent) out of the Navy. Not eoas but I doubt people are interested in the reasons and it would be easy to dox me if I got into details.

    Its bad. Most of the people in the navy are more than willing to do whatever they are told. I was a role that had a higher than average level of people leaning left and even then most of them were explicitly republican even if they thought trump was stupid.

    The military will just do whatever they are told unless someone higher up is willing to break ranks first.









  • I didn’t called vegans religious I said they argued like religious people. Thank you for making that point for me actually.

    Its easy to focus on more than one thing but it is impossible to care about everything at once, last time I tried to do that I simply stopped caring about anything for 4 years.

    Where’s the stat for 15-20% for animal emissions? I’m seeing ≈10% for all agricultural and about ≈60% of that from animals.

    I don’t really get the waste of calories as a point against eating meat? I don’t think that we have to be perfectly efficient with all of the things that we use and on top of that the problems with hunger that we experience are unrelated to the total amount of calories we have available and rather the distribution of them.

    Yes vegans only use it descriptively and it is never used in a way to imply in short hand that they are bad people. Never. I watched the vegan sub on reddit for over a year so you might want to try that on someone who hasn’t seen the way that some vegans talk about people who eat/use animal products. Some people use veganism as a weapon against other people to feel superior I’m not saying it’s you but its a thing that you should be aware actually does exist in your camp like I’m aware that there are people that seem to think eating meat makes them a big strong manly man.
