Sure, it's not that complex. Donald may be a white supremacist, a rapist, and an overall narcissistic crime elemental, but Bernie has criticized Israel, which makes him an anti-Semite, and that's worse.

Climate change will keep heating the water globally that you'll consistently get hot tub temperatures coming straight out the tap. Hell, last summer it was already close to that anyways.

but the thing in question is the custodes who are even bigger and baddasser and are all individually custom made from scratch instead of being pumped full of super soldier serum and aftermarket internal organs, so there’s really no reason they couldn’t be female, and that’s what’s got the grogs all salty even though they say it’s really because they’ve just said “no there have always been female custodes” by way of explaining why there are now female custodes.

The Emperor is coded "Heroic Gay" like Achilles or Heracles. He surrounds himself with beautiful men he created and blinded women in constant agony with their mouths sewn shut.

I'm not sure where the lore is but if the Emperor isn't making the Custodes anymore I could see a well-meaning-but-prudish conservative ecclesiarch pushing for female Custodes.

The dialectical struggle of history has always, essentially, been a question of how to apply justice to matter. Take away matter and what remains is justice.

Agreed, ban industrial meat production, worldwide bean diet now.

Anyway showering is an as-needed thing, and imo unless you're sweating profusely or working in mud daily it's not necessary. Same thing with shampooing your hair constantly, it makes it worse to do it daily. For the average white collar goon, twice a week give or take based on personal body chemistry and activity is fine.

Two things can be bad at once, and the average ammmerican has way more control over the shower tap than food production methods.

But mass hydroponics are the future I agree.

25 gallons of water per day, 175 per week, 700 per year

that's this, for one person.

Plus the energy cost to either distill or pump out the water, filter it, add chlorine and other additives, pump it to your place, then heat it up. The last part alone is 5KWh per 10 minute shower, or 35KWh a week. In 2021 Sierra Leone had a yearly per capita use of 12KWh.

tokin it can not be overstated how much personal showering and even watering those goddamn lawns is a literal drop in the bucket compared to the literally industrial quantities of fresh water wasted daily by farming unsuitable crops in arid regions, farm owners in Australia literally cry about wasted water when the Murray has any water in it at all because they would drain it bone dry for their almonds if they could, and frequently do

This is the same as you being told it's your fault for having an iphone that things are bad

i understand that capitalism is literally 99.999999% of the waste and usage here, but im just saying that capitalism is gonna force all of the bottom into lower useage anyway, so might as well start easing your trend into those lower habits.

even in the US as early as the 1950s plumbing wasnt good enough for regular bathing or waste removal, hell this is still true in some parts of the US today.

Shower frequency is one of those things where the message is not wrong in itself, but it is absolutely the wrong people who will take it to heart. The low-activity, good-hygiene people who would be OK to skip a day now and then would never consider it, while the nasty unwiped rear end guys and all-natural "chemical-free" weirdos take saving the planet as a justification for going around filthy radiating out Pigpen-style stink lines.
People who think it's mandatory to shower after every single bowel movement and before any sexual activity are freaks, though.
