  • People don’t steal for no reason. It is usually desperation, a last resort. If we remove the pressure causing people to feel that stealing is their only option, people won’t steal. I fundamentally believe in providing people their basic needs (food, clothing, shelter) because it makes these problems irrelevant.

    While i wholeheartedly agree on supporting people both economically and with basic needs, i call bullshit on this one

    try to explain that food, clothing and help is available to the guy high on weed, meth and/or heroin stealing your money to get another hit

    If you need to resort theft because you actually need food go stealing at Walmart’s, not my house

    As for your fear bait, I’m more scared of dying via car because it’s FAR more statistically likely than your invented scenario.

    Ok? Feel free to be scared of whatever you want, the chance someone breaks into your house is still there, no matter how low (not that low, especially in some neighborhoods), and i’m not about to treat intruders gently. They chose to steal, they chose to steal from houses, and they chose my house. I had no choice in this, nor should i face the consequences of someone’s else actions which i could not control in any way









  • Does either of those cause/prevent actual starvation feelings, like headaches and fatigue?

    yeah, mostly

    if there’s no readily available food i can go a full day without feeling anything, and i only eat again only because of munchiness, not because of hunger. There’s the occasional stomach rumble after 12hrs of not eating but nothing significant enough to tell the brain “you should try to not die”

    i love how it wasnt a catchy book, romance, or whatever that peaked your interest.

    It was the National Electric Code.

    The national electric fucking code.

    this is autism in full effect.

    - Someone who is reading “Excuse me, sir, would. you like to buy a kilo of isopropyl bromide?”, the biography of a man who started a chemical company. I know, thrilling.
