@pseudomonas Maybe even 'as opposed to pickled with vinegar or lactic acid'?
The Dutch word for hydrochloric acid is 'zoutzuur' (literally 'salt acid').

Reddit: you violate subsection 12, clause 14b, section g of the rules and we absolutely have the power to ban you and remove all your posts.
Fedi: I wrote a rules novel. What do you mean I can’t do shit to enforce it? If teacher existed, I’d tell on you!

I always forget who said "my feminism will be intersectional or it will be bullshit", but it seems really applicable here. (I know it from Flavia Dzodan but IIRC she's quoting someone else).

@Eric the Cerise I’ve read accounts from cis people who tried, gave themselves gender dysphoria, and got suicidal.

France: Any journey shorter than 4 hours by train should not be allowed to be taken by plane.
Me, after using French railways for a couple of weeks: They’re running plane services for distances of only 100km?
I’m honestly shocked at how functionally useless French railways are. “Welcome to our interchange. Please wait 2 hours surrounded by screaming kids and chain smokers for your connection. No you can’t have a fucking coffee”
Dear the UK, you have it better than you could possibly believe.

Reading about the book that this Vance bloke wrote, and apparently it’s all, “I was poor growing up and struggled but saw people on benefits with phones and that’s not fair”.
And his conclusion seems to be that they shouldn’t have those things if he can’t.
I had a similar childhood, but reached a very different conclusion. I don’t want anyone to struggle. If someone else has something I don’t, I don’t actually care as long as I have what I need.
He seems to feel that what he wants is not for his own needs to be met per-se, but to be ahead of others. As long as he has the biggest slice of cake, it doesn’t matter how small the cake is.
I want enough cake, and I want the rest of the cake to have enough for everyone else.

I think it depends on how you use it and who you depend on for the archiving of the knowledge / footage / art.
If all The Internet someone sees is Twitter and Instagram, then yeah, I can see why you would call it the Library of Babel with Hitler as the librarian.
But for those who are publishing their own blogs and sharing files so that art made for human entertainment remains preserved it can be a slightly different experience.
