Yikes dude, you’re blaming me for the reddit-esque toxicity.

I was using the other guy’s wording (“trash dumping”) specifically in quotes because I didn’t agree with that sentiment re: scooters. I’m not making any point about you, I’m talking about the use of the term NIMBYism. Dang.

You’re omitting the part where OP is fine with the “trash dumping” in the streets of other locales. That’s what makes it NIMBY (as OP admits).

How many people have you DMed?

Agreed, seems like a weird comment. It’s easy to get incredibly mild Indian food here but plenty of places go up to inferno hot too if you want it.

Does a map have to be large though? Theres value in a map being exactly as large as it needs to be to fulfill its creative vision.

This isn’t a unique opinion.

Upvotes ideally don’t equate to agreement though.

The spelling error makes this delicious.

On a serious note, IQ tests have done more harm than good in this world.

I was gonna say, people have been falling in love with things that provide less reciprocal interactions than AI for ages (e.g., body pillows, life-size dolls).

I’m trying out a car-free lifestyle myself now. With all the hidden costs of car ownership, you can pay for ride share pretty often (running late, terrible weather) and still come out ahead of maintaining a car. Only possible in some locales, of course.

I’ve got a system going with library cards from various cities I’ve lived. I’ve got the max ebooks on hold on each so I have constant queue of books to read. It’s free and I’m supporting the usage stats for a public service.

We used to bounce around with all the meal delivery services when they were offering good deals. I’d quit one, try another, and soon the first one would have a good “come back to us” discount. That dried up so we just use the recipe cards and buy the ingredients ourselves. Saves some of the cognitive labor of hunting down recipes every week and we can cook in larger amounts to have leftovers throughout the week. I don’t know how some of you skip meals regularly, I’d be a mess.

Can you elaborate? As it is, I’m not sure of the need for whataboutism.
