I’m glad that they are at least aware of how upset we all are about pollution. I don’t think it’s enough to command cooperation in investigating spills after they’ve already happened though. Lots of things need to looked at and acted on, quickly.
There’s a good video here about the impact of poultry farming on the Wye for example:
What was the justification for banning them in the first place? Seems a bit hardcore…
Time to pay VAT motherfuckers.
Grapefruit from the supermarket must always taste of grapefruit.
Perhaps a new community is called for; something which encourages earnest thinking and open discussion but is not hardcore technical philosophy. I think it should be called ‘interestingthoughts’ or ‘thatsinteresting’ or maybe even just ‘thoughtful’. There is already ‘showerthoughts’ but that seems to be a bit more humour-based than what you’re talking about.
I would enjoy reading and replying to posts on it and posting to it myself too. I haven’t started a community on Lemmy before and I’ve got quite a bit on my plate at the moment, so I don’t think I could take it on as a mod alone but if you want we could try doing it together. Let me know what you think :)
I agree that it can look like people are self-promoting and seeking prestige on social media. I find that following hashtags on Mastodon is a good habit for sidestepping this. It shifts the focus to topics rather than identities. The same goes for Pixelfed. I’ve got a beautiful feed on Pixelfed made up of different types of art and photography that I like.
