Because fuck you.
- middle management.
If your area can only survive due to cancerous tourism, then it's time to move. Tourism not only makes life shit for the residents because of tourists, it also increases living costs for the people. Any income you get from it is immediately lost on everything else.
Tourist hotspots have suffered from this since forever.
Tourism is a cancer and generates nothing but misery for the people living in beautiful places. Oh and I guess it increases tax money for the government officials to live their pockets with.
Get the fuck out.
My usual walk takes me through a portion of a popular hiking trail that crosses the entire country.
That short time I am on the trail before dipping down to my usual small path is nothing but poop bags tied to branches.
NGL if you have the money, a Watercooled bed is amazing.
Getting one that doesn't work through the internet though, good luck.
The machine I have to use at work was updated to windows 10 two months ago. One of the software we use for our job is hosted on a VM running Windows 98.
The wilderness was millenias ago. I don't buy it.
We have perfectly evolved the ability to use technology. We evolved past the hunter gatherer lifestyle.
Nobody walks past a berry bush and is like oh wow I need to harvest all of that in case I can't find any food tomorrow.
I mean, I do, because I love berries, but I don't carry a basket around just in case. I explicitly head out to collect the berries and people look at me like I'm a crazy mfer. There's this massive blackberry bush right outside work. When they get ripe you can easily harvest a whole bucket of them every 3 or so days. Then there's the strawberry patch next to the dirt road that lead in the forest. Etc.
T9 was eons better than trying to cram all 26 letters of the alphabet on a touchscreen
It's not really a joke. He basically said the poor are poor on purpose. Not their purpose, someone else's.
People who buy things just because they pass by them is crazy to me
Like, I'm not a poor boy by any metric (I make above median wage here) but jfc do people have literally no will power? Like they see an ad on TV/The internet and immediately feel the need to consume?
Granted, my shopping lists are vague (usually just like 'meat&vegs for x days') and then once i'm there I pick what's on sale and strikes my fancy, but I don't buy a fucking spare toaster oven just because the store moved the aisle and you need to go past the kitchen appliances to get to the meat.
I mean... I'd take that offer for sure.
