And in case someone doesn't: You don't need to take the entire bark off the wood. Just the outermost layers. So you can even take some from a live tree without worries in a pinch.

And if you have no idea what birch looks like, it's the white barked one.

Oh yeah I wasn't really confused, I just meant to make the point that simulation theory != Matrix. Matrix is A simulation, but simulation theory doesn't necessitate that we all have real bodies in a "real world". In fact, I think the matrix version of the simulation is less likely, as it would be more complex to achieve, at least in our reality. In simulation theory, if the simulation stops and is deleted, there may well be literally nothing left of us. That's not a trans allegory, that's an existential crisis

Oh yeah I forgot the whole pill thing, I only focused on the actual transition of his being.

This makes all those "redpilled" right wingers even funnier lmao

kw/h is either a problem or going to be a problem soon if it's consistently positive.

Also mentions tin foil being more effective so why ever bother with the smelly yogurt?

I know that The Matrix is a trans allegory but simulation theory isn't necessarily the same as being imprisoned in a simulation. It means we might not exist at all. Simulation goes away, we go away. Or maybe it's like The Matrix and we're all trans eggs. There's no way to know which version it is or how many people are real vs simulated.

Simulation theory doesn't equal The Matrix.

I mean they've only had 3 models over the last 26 years. Everything else is a special edition of an existing model.

The looks aren't my cup of tea either these days. I loved the Zonda F as a teen, but these days I'd rather have a Mercedes V12 in a... Mercedes.

If you look now, Mamdani's tweet currently has 20x the retweets and 30x the likes. Most of the replies to Cuomo are telling him off.

Twitter shows Cuomo to more people, hence the views, but engagement is higher for Mamdani.

Technically it's Foxconn that pays their wages and taxes. The comic obviously has a point though. Minus the Fairphone (overpriced for its spec and likely going to get shorter software support than any iPhone since the 5 it 5S), the options are all shit and include some form of modern slavery. IPhones just get the most attention while Samsung literally runs a country. We can't just all stop owning modern electronical devices altogether.
