When you're a kid you just take trees for granted. Then when you get to be an adult you realize that a fully mature tree cannot be created in an amount of time that fits in a convenient landscaping timeframe for love nor money nor all the powers of science. Then you realize that people are very very very cavalier about chopping them down

literally every problem i've had in my adult life has been solved by open and honest communication. which is fucking stupid, first of all

also part of growing up is realizing that the embarrassing music you liked in your early teen years still goes hard as hell

my hottest take is that I truly think every person should get emotionally invested in at least one local sports team - any team, any sport; chose based on their colors or if you like high-scoring or low-scoring games or which player you think is hottest - and go to at least one (1) live game each year; and at that game you need to cheer and/or boo at the top of your lungs with everyone else, and thus microdose on the human instincts for 'us vs them' thinking, mob mentality, and bloodlust. Because if you don't accept these things in yourself and periodically indulge them in something petty like sports, you'll accidentally put them in politics, fandom shipping, etc. instead, which I think we can all agree is Worse.

is anyone else annoyed that "ai" encompasses both chatgpt and tools we train to do repetitive tedious work for us. and by the ripple effect of articles like "scientists develop ai to detect cancer early" that make people argue for the merit of chatgpt or become anti-medicine. and by the general state of the world and society

Lady in drive through had a bearded dragon sitting on her boobs and she held it up and let me pet it. killing myself canceled

So today on the local news they covered that the US men’s soccer team beat Australia but the news anchors didn’t get nearly as excited about that as they did about the report about the local zoo releasing more endangered lizards into the wild and frankly I agree with them

To be fair, reintroducing endangered lizards back into the wild is far more relevant long term
