My pantry restock game does not involve eating absolute garbage so other than a few granola bars, no, it doesn’t include any of those items. Some of those things, even under a very broad definition, should not be considered food.
That’s the way to be fat and malnourished at the same time.
There is nothing more typical of a provincial bourgeois than to believe that their fancy local private day school has an iota of brand recognition or cachet outside their own city https://t.co/Re4kYvlJlV

I like doing that to people who expect to impress me for having gone to fancy schools.
Things I’ve said in real life to such hoity-toity people:
That can be really, really fun.
How Safe Are You From Covid When You Fly?
It was already fairly safe before. So if you’re fully vaccinated, get on the fucking plane! JFC people always searching for perfect safety. Just get on the fucking plane!
People make fun of Bostrom’s premises about potential technological annihilation (sometimes for good reason), ignoring the fact that nuclear weapons exist already.
Now that’s funny.
Tell that (please) to all the libs who throw fits when someone walks by outside their apartment without a mask. They are all “believe science” but have more superstitions than 4th Century Bagaudae.

Cool. In the US at least in about 2-3 weeks, case numbers are going to crash, fatality rate will too, and the doom-mongers will look even more foolish than they already do.
On some deep level the “permanent lockdown” mentality is one of the clearest examples of a people becoming unmoored from the stream of time, alienated from past and future and therefore willing to tear down everything that could be in order to save themselves at all costs.

That, and it signals that other vital parts of society have completely disintegrated because the “permanent lockdown” mentality is not what a collective response looks like — unless you consider solitary confinement to also be a community-oriented response.
