Ah yes, the famous prison yards where I can go participate in the slave auctions and literally purchase people as property. I get your point, but they're really not the same.
The state of the prison system is awful but this comparison really feels like it minimizes the horrors of chattel slavery.
And also to get people accustomed to the idea of participating in mass actions. You don't go from barely having protests to a multi week general strike in one go. You do things like this, first.
I knew I'd get this comment. And you're not wrong, that is the case. But I'm referring to it being fully legal and accepted. Like open-air slave market level.
I wonder how large it would have to be to put one in orbit
That path is dangerous, too. It's currently what's allowing states to deny abortions and I bet it would eventually be used to re-legalize slavery.
If it was your parent, definitely. They don't ask about grandparents. I don't know there's a place on the SF-86 for you to insert this info.
My wife beat me at MarioKart at a party in my apt. And well, that's where it started lmao.
Bitch didn't even know how to drift and just snaked that victory out from under me.
Hours after this story published, a White House spokesperson said in a statement that DOGE did not share classified information ― even as NRO’s classified information was still accessible on DOGE’s website.
“DOGE did not share classified information, any assertion to the contrary is a lie,” said the spokesperson. “Yesterday the accusation was DOGE was not transparent and today the accusation is DOGE is too transparent. Stop the fearmongering, DOGE’s mission remains to cut waste, fraud, and abuse and are doing so with the proper security clearances and following the law.”
Lmao peak professionalism guys.
This. As automation increases, fewer of us should have to work. A significant issue with the Soviet Union and their legendary inefficiency is that every one had the right to a job even if there were no jobs to be done. Leading to them creating unnecessary intermediary positions at every level of the system.
Basic income, sure. And people should be educated. But beyond that, encourage the people who don't need to work to pursue art or other ends. Get them involved in community activities. But work towards a society of leisure if possible.
Most vision problems are issues with the shape of the lens of your eye either causing distortion of the light (astigmatism), or changing the optical focal length of something at a particular distance to something not ideal, causing you to be near/far sighted, or both.
These contact lenses just insert a new series of optical lenses which cause magnification.
The other processes would be incredibly difficult as our understanding of how images are processed by the occipital lobe of the brain are limited at best. You might have some success with the cyberpunk method of a bionic which your brain can be taught to control, or genetic modification to change the density and type of receptors on your retina, or the shape of the eye.
4chan memed about penis inspection day for years, but I never expected they'd get this far.
It really is the most ancient point of sale methodology I've seen in the last fifteen years or so.
