I think the reference to weed stores is more about the lack of motivation than the milk.
Or just cut out the middleman and use isopropyl alcohol, which is what you're doing with the marker anyway, but without adding the extra ink.
Basically the same stuff as that whiteboard cleaning fluid.
The more you grow older, the more you realize everyone is LARPing everything, and it has always been that way.
Democracy isn't the problem; it's the money in politics, which is an intended effect of capitalism.
Capitalism is the problem. Capitalism by its very natire is a system of economic distribution where you have an owner class who control a working class via wages, where the working class will never be paid what they are worth due to the profit motive that the owner class has when it comes to the profit of their business. Shareholder capitalism makes this even worse, as the profit year-over-year must ALWAYS go up, as that is how stock price increases. It is to the point where shareholders sue companies not for losing money, but for making less money than they did the year prior, and they win.
Imagine an alternative where you could have democracy in your workplace (worker-owned coops). You would be able to hire and fire your boss with a vote. You will be able to determine the direction of the business, also with a vote. This could be the reality if we just forced all corporations to be worker-owned coops.
This, combined with a hard wealth cap and a UBI, will prevent any one person (or small group of people) from gaining enough power to buy a government, and the addition of democracy in business will also make business interests harder to corrupt as well.
Yeah, even if mpv isn't your flavor, you can always install countless other video players. If you want something familiar, just use VLC.
mpv is GOAT
There actually is a "hypervisor OS" called QubesOS, but it is not for the faint of heart. It's not exactly difficult to set up or use for basic tasks, but stuff like passing through hardware is more on the advanced side of things. I wouldn't personally recommend it unless you really enjoy tinkering or if you need max data isolation.
~~Unchecked~~ capitalism.
I liked Season 2 more TBH.
You can sub for basically any cream of blank. Just think of something that goes well with green beans.
Cartridges cost a lot more to produce than cheap, plastic discs or modern, SD card-esque flash storage.
