Enjoy it! I’m happy for you!

This decision takes some courage, so well done :)

Yea, fair

'Just pull yerself up by yer own bootstraps, lad!

While I do agree (or at least hope) that we all have the agency to positively influence our own lives and those around us, the main point there in my opinion is that different people have different resources in life. Someone that’s experienced systemic racism, or someone who’s brain is a wee bit non-standard just has it harder than someone not experiencing these issues.

Yea. Turns out the biggest creature you can freeze and thaw again (in strict lab conditions) is a hamster, anything bigger just dies.

The natural habitat has been altered using chemicals, farming methods, or terraforming to a degree that the current ecosystem can not sustain itself without human intervention

I think artificial is the proper therm here. Not in a sense that they’re gene modified or robot bugs, but in a sense that their dominance of the habitat is due to human interference.

Yea, I really liked these as a kid. Shame their chocolate is collected by slaves :|

Behave by Robert Sapolsky. It’s an excellent book if you’re trying to understand why the people around you are like… well, that way. But if you didn’t study neuroscience, you’ll likely have to re-read it to get at least the most important points to stick.

The implication is that they (well… we) can’t do what’s necessary in a low-effort scenario I’d say.

Kind of similar to calling someone a mouthbreather

I agree that there should definitely be safety regulations in place for ship recycling, but this guy is building a strawman argument and it really undermines his point in my view.
