  • So, I love boats and sailing.

    Megayachts aren’t for people who love boats and sailing, they’re for rich people who love the privacy of having a mobile private island. In their operation (big diesel engines, fiberglass hulls made with MEK, dumping raw sewage and such), they pollute a lot more than basically any other method of travel/living.

    The people at Gabe Newell’s company probably make decent money. But it’s a dangerous job working with extremely toxic chemicals (if it’s good for the boat, it’s bad for the environment, and it’s bad for the workers). A lot of them probably have to retire early with health problems.

    I love boats and sailing, but this megayacht shit sucks.









  • This wouldn’t surprise me at all, tbh. My uncle (first son) is way taller than my dad (second son) because back in the day my family didn’t have much money, and they prioritized feeding the oldest son. Same genetics, different childhood diet. Uncle is like 6’2", my dad is like 5’6". If there had been a girl sibling involved, she probably would have gotten even less food.




  • Nope. I set up the browser on my computer and phone to delete all cookies from youtube every time I close the window/tab.

    Every time I rock up to youtube, it’s like I’m visiting for the first time. Zero recommendations. “Try searching to get started!”

    I watch a couple videos, I close the tab. Next time I open youtube? Zero recommendations again. It’s awesome.



  • Personally I started using like. 75% less TP once I got a bidet. Combined with spending $30 on the bidet itself, that’s easy savings.

    You can get a cheap one for like $25-50 and install it yourself (pretty easy, not actual plumbing, just screwing and unscrewing a few things) and they’re fine. The more expensive ones have heated water, but you don’t need that. I eventually sprang for a “nicer” one, but now I feel that was unnecessary. Maybe I’m a freak, but I prefer the cold water anyway.
