What the fuck, my guy. Even if you don't know what the word "defile" means, there's nothing one could intend to do to their murder victims corpse where the response "sounds like fun" should ever be uttered.

Yep r/worldnews went from condemning Russia for their war crimes on Ukraine to damn near universally praising and supporting Israel's war crimes on Palestine.

Sadly, I don't think it's all bots and propagandists. A lot of them are real people that really do have that level of cognitive dissonance.

And then the gf decides she wants to try a new flavor, buys her "normal" nic strength, and fills her vape up with it before anon has a chance to dilute it.

Did you actually lower by only a percentage a week, or were you doing the normal thing and just buying weaker juice? Commercial vape juices have multiple percentage differences in their nic content between the different "tiers" of juice. That would be much more sudden and noticeable than 1% a week lower.

Hey now, things aren't that bad. No way Trump lives long enough for that.

Oh yeah don't get me wrong, as long as they don't fuck with established events I'm not mad about this movie existing. It just doesn't appeal to me at all. The only lotr movies I really want are ones based on the Silmarillion stories, and sadly I suspect we'll have to wait another 20 years(or more, if the copyright considers Tolkiens son the author) for it to enter public domain before that happens.

Who would want to buy them? The only value a studio has without it's IP is the devs, and you don't need to buy the studio to acquire them.

The original trilogy is so beloved because it's an excellent adaptation of one of the greatest book series ever. This is not that. Good or bad, this will be outright fanfiction. No thanks.

Not practically. You'd have to be replacing the trees faster than you chop them down just to account for the energy(and thus carbon) used to chop them and process them. Then there's the fact that decomposition will also release the carbon, so you HAVE to use the lumber for stuff that is intended to last at least as long the tree grew, or else that tree is still a net negative.

No, you can't. There are trillions of trees on earth and the impact they have on carbon emissions is relatively minimal, planting a forest or even many forests isn't going to cut it.

Not to mention that for trees to be an at all viable long term carbon capture method, you can't ever cut those trees down. If we can't leave the fucking Amazon alone, what makes you think we won't chop up that artificial forest in 50 years?

This is the same issue with kelp. Kelp has a ton of uses, and is an even better carbon sink than trees are, but to be a carbon sink you have to forgo all of those other uses because you have to literally sink the kelp to the bottom of the ocean and leave it there, because actually using it for anything just rereleases the carbon.

Glad I'm not the only one

They might require it for crossplay or give some goodies for linking, but there's no fucking way they try to make it retroactively mandatory just to play at all again. After this statement, there would be ACTUAL grounds for a class action lawsuit if they did.
