I'm an Aussie. We have potato chips (aka crisps or whatever the USA calls Frito/Lays type sliced potato in a foil bag) branded with advertising for s2 of Squid Game also. I took some pics when I saw at a servo (petrol/gas/service station). Ahh commercialism. And people who never got to experience things like Lord of The Flies or Battle Royale but need a more mainstream introduction.. via snack foods perhaps? https://imgur.com/a/BYglUsQ

(and yes, I've read it ALL, even the rare stuff. Read his first book if you wanna see what he tried to write careful circles around admitting the rest of the time (while he was also working on developing fetishes for redhead, poly and incest casual sex). For Us The Living. Nutter.

Anybody who thinks Heinlein was good at strong female characters should look at their own views. He wrote women that were either indistinguishable from men in their supposed "strong" elements.. or had to "make up for" misogynistic stereotype features by.. acting like his idea of men (rugged indivualist verging on predatory libertarians) when it "mattered."

Defunctland did a video on making the "sandwich of the future".. Disney/Epcott's "handwich"!

shh, don't remind people that the fda does actual useful food safety work! Or the majority of the US voting population might have to realise they chose someone who wants to hand control of it over to a conspiracy theorist who had a literal (tape) worm that ate part of his brain, and who believes in.. well, nothing that will result in the organisation being able to sanely (or in an evidence based manner) do anything at all helpful!

in one sense.. might increase the deer's safety from being shot? ... or make it an easier to track target...
If someone was trying to save the deer from hunters, it may end up having a deer cost indeed.

"...can only be seen from one angle..".. and unless you only have one eye (or one open), they will immediately look very wrong indeed.
It's all fun and games until someone /hasn't/ lost an eye.
They photograph well though...And are pretty. Art is subjective, and subverting and all. (also sublime. Less than lime. Lime beats art? Err.. I'm drifting off whatever point I may have had or been close to...)

.. that isn't a world without predators... it's just shifting which predator is at the top. Grazing animals will happily predate through all the plants for example. Everything eats.

Actually there is one thing that more people (and more people with a decent level of access to facilities and resources is good at, especially knowledge and education).Technology development. Ideas.And adaptability and communication are humanity's only advantages over other apex predators. (and you could argue stubborness and durability also: persistence predation and all).That's a major issue with the way our capitalist society approaches (and presents/advertises fears: yes it is propaganda).It isn't "cartoonish" to try to uplift more people to more potential. It's cartoonish to think that the "already haves" can be trusted to now do differently.You can't trickle down systemic improvements (or economics for that matter)

"The United States is among the oldest modern democracies, but it is only the oldest if the criteria are refined to disqualify claimants ranging from Switzerland to San Marino. Some historians suggest that the Native American Six Nations confederacy (Iroquois), which traces its consensus-based government tradition across eight centuries, is the oldest living participatory democracy. Others point out that meaningful democracy only arrived at a national level in 1906, when Finland became the first country to abolish race and gender requirements for both voting and for serving in government."

That presenter needs a warning. Snark can be either delightfully interesting and enticing or dripping with "I'll not bother listening". This guy has the wrong sort. Hugely

Oh, and he died in poverty, ill and homeless. And people donated so he was at least buried. But didn't continue making sure the kids ate each Christmas (or New Year as it was later moved to). The tradition died ("endeded") with his death
Ahh 'Merica.
