I want to believe that the kids mentioned in posts like this are playing along with their parents' delusions so they don't have to sit through another lecture about how the Federal Reserve is a Ponzi scheme and they're chemtrailing us with fluoride.

Unfortunately I believed the whole states rights thing until at least early highschool but I'm actually not sure exactly where that ended. My childhood memories are full of holes and every time I manage to remember something I wish I hadn't so I mostly just leave them alone now.

I wanted to dismantle the state for a socialist ideal in at least middle school. I didn't like punk until freshmen year of high school though, so we all go through changes even if my politics have mostly stayed the same.

Edit: thinking back on it I remember having an anticapitalist moment in 5th grade, Miss Hill's class so we'll scale that back to elementary school.

Haha you reminded me of a video of some poor young teen having to film his mother making chemtrails disappear by spraying a bottle of vinegar at them.

He was so unenthused.

Edit: I can't find it. My guess it was obv taken down .

Rice confirmed sentient and sapient. Vegans everywhere are in tears. International governments are drafting a Bill of Rice to ensure the rights of these beings. Churches are redirecting rice purchased for weddings to be given directly to their missionaries. Little do we know, the grains will soon band together and revolt, and the Rice War will be upon us.

Oh man we'd be so fucked if all plants were sentient. We'd still eat, but we'd be doomed to commit plant war crimes to live

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

They could be sentient without us knowing. But they live on a different time scale. Everything we do to them would happen very quickly in their perception. So don't worry and bon appetit.

The hate jar has visible condensation. The moisture probably is driving the mold growth.

And this is how you fail in teaching your children science.

[–] [email protected] 58 points 2 weeks ago

One, day... some adult is going to think "that fucking cunt ass bitch lied to me about the rice".

[–] [email protected] 55 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Is this like, some weird parent "lesson" thing you're actually supposed to fake? Like maybe you're supposed to put some vinegar in the good jar to prevent mold growth, and the goal is to make your dumbass children behave?

[–] [email protected] 54 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

No better lesson learned than being lied to by those in authority...

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 weeks ago

2 lessons in one!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah there aren't any lasting affects from that at all

Said the nearly 40yo anarchist

If rice has feelings, consider the unimaginable horror you're inflicting when you eat a bowl of it for lunch.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

i would fucking hope it's dead by then, just like how i don't worry about the feelings of a cooked porkchop

the horrifying part is when the rice is harvested and processed, dear lord

"Words truly matter" but I can't understand for the life of me what these ones mean. Can someone help me out?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

Words have powers bordering on magic, I guess is the idea.
And for many people that's true, for as long as they are willing to believe that.

So I guess what I'm saying is that placebos have powers bordering on magic.

Huh, it really makes you think... some people have no idea how to run an experiment or about statistical significance.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Nah, they actively avoid it. My mom was also like this, and when we did experiments as a kid and something didn't work "we were just doing it wrong".

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Sounds like my mom too.

She practiced reiki at one point and wanted to convince me it works by trying it on me. When I said I didn't feel anything at all her reply was "oh well that's probably just because you don't believe in it."

...I love you mom, but yes that is it and not in the way you think it is lol

Those treated with kindness are better for eating.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe they just love segregation and hate culture?

[–] [email protected] 40 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We've finally figured out how to develop an active sourdough starter in record time. You curse at it.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 weeks ago

So that’s why the dough is so sour.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Now I feel bad for blue cheese, must have been abused all this time.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

The more people hate blue cheese, the bluer it gets

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 weeks ago

So hate helped sprouting mold, therefore new life?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

All I can see is that this might be evidence that jars with green lids ate bad for storing food. Further studies are needed.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Kind words ~~satanise~~ sanitise & sterilise.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I think this is a wink towards the idea that your plants grow better when you talk lovey-dovey to them

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

It is probably true though. Speaking to them every day, means looking at them every day and thus seeing problems immediately. Okay, so not true, but still effective.

Yeah I've always found that silly, they just like our breath.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago

It’s really funny how the “bad” rice is photoshopped

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago

Eww after four days that rice is very much ruined. Freeze your rice and you can put the most vile words you want on the jar. Or not, because this is stupid and you're wasting rice.

No mycelium on either one I see.

Next time I recommend staying silent and paying attention to the moment as you make your cake

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Homeschooling sure is... Something!
