Like most forever chemicals, they don't decompose, they just litter the oceans. given their shape and density, they get blown around by air a lot, so they tend to accidentally escape containment efforts. It's not an ideal situation. I guess there was a viral video showing how it's horrific for sea turtles. +This is the background information for local businesses informing us of how admirable they are because they switched from plastic straws to paper. Following that, memes about paper straws dissolving before people can finish their drinks - apparently some people order a beverage and stare at it for multiple hours? I had a friend at the time who informed me how much smarter he was than these people by realizing you can just bypass the straw. +sure. But the point of a straw is to work around ice cubes. +[put metal straw in beverage] +Him and his girlfriend were... amused? that I wanted to buy metal drinking straws. +[sip] +In response to their derision I said, "yeah, Save the Sea Turtles." my then-friend was incredulous that i would spend money for a cause like this. I specified, it's not that I feel bad. It's that I recognize the moral obligation. +he attempted to correct me viz a viz my thought process; he said that moral obligation comes from a feeling of guilt. +at the time i was mildly horrified that he couldn't fathom the difference. Since then, the true horror is that i'm pretty sure most people can't disentangle these concepts in their minds. So once you become desensitized to the feeling of guilt, there's nothing left to guide you. +[chug, finish] -incitement +Every pretentious video essayist will eventually talk about spec ops the line and/or disco elysium at some point. +[skill check fail, rhetoric, trivial] +Now let me share with you a story of my own blind spot. +[rhetoric] what the fuck was that? +When I first saw the list of skills, I was immediately drawn to one. I figured clearly it's the best. If the game is good, surely with this one skill will be the one that matters the most, and with enough of it, you can compensate for the rest, or render them entirely obsolete. Other than the physical ones. -## section +Fortunately, i've been able to ask others. A therapist once told me she thought that of Empathy. I figured it was possible she was performing what is expected of her rather than being genuine. then an artist told me she was immediately attracted to Inland Empire. 3 data points isn't definitive, but we can work with it. I hold the thesis: a person correlates with a "signature skill" in disco elysium. Much like that one expired card game has player archetypes of spike, johnny, timmy, and vorthos, there are appreciable differences that a real person tends to gravitate toward, reflecting their own personality and perspective on life. If life is a game where you're the player character, the player seems to have chosen a signature skill. Mine is Logic, of course. Surely you saw this coming, it couldn't possibly be anything else. +...but then, maybe you didn't. It's obvious to me what was happening in my skull, but I reside there, so of course it would be. +Hold this thought, for a moment. -text \ No newline at end of file +the portraits.
