Ive been told you MUST let rice cool on the counter before putting it in the fridge. My brother in Christ, that’s how you die.

I think we’re all missing the point here, and this is how they divide us. (By they I mean monied interests). Back in the 60s you could get a job air hammering in the same 8 bolts all day that would provide you a house, car, and your spouse doesn’t work and you have 2 kids and go on vacation twice a year and the company takes care of your retirement. Both of these jobs (in ops post) require the same or more skill to do and you can’t even afford to rent a studio apartment on your own. We need to stop looking at other “unskilled” labor and saying “they better not make a much as me” and start asking “hold on, why can’t we both make more?” Rising tides lift all ships. The only people that suffer are the multi millionaires.

This isnt radical. If you work full time you should be able to afford what your parents and grandparents had in the 60s working full time.

Dude, I literally don’t give a shit about the art. Just because you talk about it doesn’t mean it’s effective. If everyone is mocking you then it makes your message a joke. No one takes you seriously.

And no, you made a lot of leaps to get to your conclusions about me. From your completely brain-dead take I could say you actually don’t care about the message at all because you’re uncritically supporting an ineffective form of protest which does more harm than good. Why do you love the oil companies? There are as many leaps in my statement about you as yours to mine.

This is the real part. When you argue like that it makes it clear that you engage in bad faith,assuming the worst of everyone and further alienating people from the message and the cause. So if you actually DO care, which I assume you do because I don’t automatically assume the worst in people, do better.

And them vandalizing art is pretty ineffectual too. I’m all for them doing effective protesting. But I’d argue with the throwing of soup on art they’re making themselves a joke. If throwing some soup on the mona Lisa and chopping the head off famous sculptures or putting a hole in the ceiling of the sistine chapel actually did save lives then I’d be all for it. But it doesn’t. Go shut down parliament, chain yourself across a bridge, throw soup on a pro oil politician. Ground Taylor Swift’s private jet making her miss a concert date. Go ham.

You’re making a lot of assumptions about me too. You need chill the fuck out throwing around your accusations. There’s a lot of inaccurate shit I can say about you too.

It’s not even valuing art more then life. It’s more like “yeah, but why?” Like go throw paint on a BP execs car or something. That’ll make headlines too if done right.
