@mrundkvist exactly, wealth is like manure: It only works of it is distributed
@Kjaerulv Margaret Killjoy seems to be consistently producing writing with good takes, big fan

"I don’t believe in conspiracies, except for the ones that we’ve seen proven true (and those are usually proven true quickly enough). I don’t actually believe the rich are collectively plotting to just to kill us all after we’ve been rendered obsolete.

But I suspect none of them would mind if that’s what happens."

@kirjorastas this carpet was inherited from my grandmother. Grandma had good style in carpets
@kirjorastas hell yeah, your carpet close ups are welcome here!
@BlackLaZoR please believe that, if it makes you sleep well at night. How about all the other planetary boundaries that we are crossing? Does it seem like our current economic system is solving those? Not to me
@CedarTea Ah yeah, that sucks. Let's hope it becomes the new hip food to forage, so all the foodies will trek out to the woods to gather it :)
@CedarTea it's curious to me how and why Garlic Mustard (Alliaria petiolata) sounds to be such a bad weed problem for you? If you don't mind a clueless European stranger asking. Here in Northern Europe it seems to grow in good balance in the wild, I've never heard anyone complain about it in a garden context and I always love to see it, snack a bit and bring some home for a spicy twist to my salad. I'm guessing it originates here in Eurasia and has invasive patterns in America?
@artemis @ska @Elizafox absolutely. I live in Denmark, where most people believe that they are free to protest and that the system is just. Last Wednesday twenty people sat down to blockade the headquarters of Maersk. They were immediately attacked by frenzied cops with batons and dogs. But most people will not hear about that or assume that, somehow, "they must have asked for it"
