i think the problem isn’t the definition, it’s the name. I’d prefer focusing on the convenience of the food, rather than the processing, as that’s one of the major defining features and what makes it bad.
Call it Ultra-convenient food.

how exactly did you struggle with getting calories from vegetables? did you literally just eat lettuce?
Even just carrots have a perfectly reasonable amount of calories, and vegetables are notoriously easy to digest, so the idea of not being able to physically fit more seems wholly made up.


can we please stop acting as if pizza is some horror food? yeah maybe pizza hut is closer to savoury cake, but most pizzas are perfectly fine, and the stereotypical italian pizza is outright healthy.
Of all the things you can eat, pizza is far from the worst, because it’s not absolutely filled with sugar.


being standard isn’t an excuse, it makes it even more egregious.


i wish agents would at least try to not be insufferable about it, tell me “yeah i know, that’s the way it is” or something so i don’t feel like i’m trying to communicate with some sort of advanced fungus colony…


there are 2 solid low-cost mobile carriers here in sweden, and i literally do this with them. Just hop back and forth every 4 months and you get some sort of deal every single time.
It’s profoundly stupid and makes me hate modern society just that little bit more.


“Anableps anableps” is an amazing species name


i don’t think it would even be that much of a concern, really. Not only can one person have multiple children (so you can do one surrogate and one genetically yours), but there are plenty of people who’d just be happy they get to give birth to their child and couldn’t care less about genes.


similar DNA is bad actually, the whole point of sexual reproduction is to increase diversity to make the population as robust as possible. If you have a ship full of clones all it takes is one virus/bacteria/fungus mutating in just the wrong way and everyone will get infected.
Like, this is why we got a new type of banana some decades ago, it’s all giant monocultures which is hilariously vulnerable to disease.


i don’t think it’s that fucked up to have everyone with a womb be a surrogate mother, you’d just have to select people who are okay with it. There’s nothing wrong with being a surrogate, it’s basically just adoption except you get to give birth to the child.


just bringing a ton of frozen sperm and eggs is honestly the real answer i feel, why worry about bringing a bunch of living people who need resources and stuff, when you can just bring a quarter of earth’s diversity with you in the freezers?
The two downsides to this is that people can’t really have kids with each other, and if the freezers malfunction you’re a bit in the shit.


“100% US” will never cease being funny to me, the US is a fucking continent! Imagine if we in europe had “100% european milk!”, only place you wouldn’t see that seal is like, greece and bulgaria because they might import turkish milk…


then why are you continuing to interact with humans?


god you’re so edgy and profound


have you looked at simplex? at a glance it seems robust and it actually works without much fiddling which is nice.


are you severely low on blood sugar or something?


this makes me want a little keychain device that generates a UUID and shows it as a QR code when you press a button


it’s particularly baffling since KDE plasma is at this point kiiiiiinda just the best desktop, including windows and mac.
By default it just works as 90% of people would expect it to, and if you want to you can customize it into something unrecognizable and it’ll outright help you to do so.
It’s so fucking good that i switched to it just because my mom has it on her laptop and it looked fucking sweet
why would you ever eat 2000 calories in one go? Even if you’re an extreme athlete that seems excessive.
