Get the fuck out of Ukraine and things will stop. It's not hard.

What do you understand about the economic system? For example, how the money supply is created, and the ramifications of "interest" and "inflation". What you'll find if you do, is that the system is fundamentally broken if your goal is sustainability on this planet for any serious length of time.

Most of the current world order couldn't care less, clearly or we'd have done things about climate change that weren't just technical advancements buying us time if making any difference whatsoever.

Real austerity for the wealthy could pay for solving most of the world's issues, several times over. And we have the resources to do it globally. It shouldn't be a matter of "cost".

But it'll probably never happen, unfortunately.

We're not disagreeing then. I'm just saying some date lines aren't in the right place in general, but what really matters most? What are our priorities? I don't think most light and most dark is better, even if it were possible to get every time zone just right.

I feel like having a life, and kids being able to play for longer after school without it being dark throughout the summer is pretty awesome.

It's that or have school and work finish earlier. I'm all for that, lol.

Time of day is a human invention. We can assign the date lines wherever we like.

Like Japan was nuts. Dark at 3pm in winter. Light at 3am in summer. They'd benefit by shifting that shit two hours forward for sure.

I'll take 7 hour workdays in summer instead.

More daylight in summer rocks. It would be equally rocking in Winter. The clocks shoud stay forward.

Neither does passivism though. If everyone around you is losing your mind, you either give up your freedom and very possibly your life, or you fight.

The only reason no other great power has needed a fully prepared military is because of US leadership. That can't be trusted now, so here we are.

I'm going to assume you're working class and actually reading the articles is a personal sacrifice on the tiny amount of free time you get in a day. So, thank you for your service.

I'm assuming it's people thinking it'll go up again so buy it while it's cheap. Momentum has to continue against the company so those who bought in now are punished.

But you're right, the stock market is gambling that produces nothing for the world. Trickle down transaction fees at best, tempting retirees to waste their retirement money at worse.
