everything that’s ever been in anyone’s mouth is a thing tho 😞

I’ve worked hard in my adult life to stop chewing or putting things in my mouth, but for some reason this looks so good to chew on.

And a 14 year old kid using a VPN is probably not the target audience for a lot of the worst abuse.

Not saying it won’t happen, but a drastic reduction is better than none.

to me this is the wrong way of looking at it, it’s like saying “imagine a world where plutocrats just didn’t do pollution, imagine a world where plantation owners didn’t use slave labor, imagine a world where industrialists didn’t employ children”

it was always going to happen, just society has to force capitalists not to be cunts. Only way, always was, always will be, still is.

I’d counter argue that a test that is not communicated, reported, described or otherwise transmitted to another party is identical to it not happening, therefore one needs to tell “someone” (even if that is a private journal), and while in theory falsifability is possible solo, it increases the problem of induction, and science is, in essence, a language: a description of phenomena not the phenomena itself.
