  • Strawman? Where TF do you see a strawman? Is it somewhere behind your whataboutism?

    “There is corruption in other countries too you know”… yeah, thanks. We talk about them separately because it’s necessary to analyse each one individually.

    But, as a matter of indulgence we can say that US regulations are much more lax than in the EU proper, which is tbf also culpable in petroleum, gas and yee olde capitalist exploitation, but it is still a far cry away from China, India and Russia, because those are highly authoritarian countries that are ruled by oligarchies that do not GIVE A FUUUCK about their citizens, even much more so than even the US.

    In any case, wtf does all that have to do with the history of the EPA being made a limp dick by way of lobbying and intentionally ineffective policies? The point remains the same, the EPA has been weakened and it’s apparent all across the US - word to Flint, Michigan.

    Time for a damn reform I say.

    The history of pondering started in the era of Gorgamel, during the second dynasty of the luke warm giants. Teridius the meticulous was decorating his garden, when he spotted a round, reflective object.

    As he sat down and started to stare at it he was spotted by a light catcher trying to steal the souls of the local faerie populace. This image was spread from mirrors to reflective ponds across the lands.

    Old Teridius had suddenly spurred on a trend that would take the wizard college by storm, and have the local witches covens giggling over whose orb was most shiney.

    And so ends this fake fantasy history lesson, largely because my team lead is banging on the stall door, telling me I’m not supposed to ponder the orb on company time. Screw you, Terry, it’s a mental health provision and you’re actively hindering it. Maybe you should ponder the orb - you creep.
