I think it’s more likely that the idea of a god or gods originated with humans who consumed psychoactive plants, fungus, and/or ergot-infected grain

The original nature religions and the like, sure.

Inherently authoritarian ones like Christianity and the other monotheistic ones, though? Definitely the invention of people who wanted to control other people.

There’s presumably wasn’t a lot of drugs that make you overly concerned with obedience and imposing your will on others available way back then.

It was also invented before bread was afair 😁

Hooray! I was getting worried that ANY of the components of my desktop would be affordable to replace when it becomes necessary! 🤦🤬

Why the fuck are they willing to come here?

Because, contrary to public/fan perception, most top level footballers are not at all principled when there’s large amounts of money and prestige on the line.

Plus the whole “team sport” thing has the downside of peer pressure from other players being a real factor.

That’s also why the billionaires love it so much:

they very rarely have much if any technical expertise, but imagine that they just have to throw enough money at AI and it’ll make them look like the geniuses they already see themselves as.

Reminder: they’re not called RARE earth elements because there’s very low amounts of them.

Their “ratity” is how difficult they are to get to. Difficult to get to more often than not means that mining companies cause even more environmental devastation than usual, ESPECIALLY when we’re talking multinational conglomerates based in the US or another country with extremely lax regulations.

Very.

Ffs, the West’s favorite fascist apartheid regime is back to international war crimes again? 🤦

What Greg said.

That’s good until you realize that it’s a very bad sign that Photoshop is now capable of happiness 😬🤔

Ah, you mean like how some countries that were previously COMPLETELY under the thumb of the US and seemingly happy about it are finally starting to disentangle themselves a tiny bit because the fascist kakistocracy makes even the appearance of cooperation unfeasible?

And regular eggs are minieggs who have eaten too much chicken

I mean, it’s better than Moon Moon, but still…

Could be!

…is Uruguay marked “worst Mexico” or “West Mexico”?

I kinda doubt that EITHER is true, given that it’s located to the East of Argentina and probably is MUCH better than those Paraguayan bastards!

Plus they’re of the “rather spend a million in court than spend a thousand on environmental mitigation” school of parasites.
