Isaiah 64:25 Describing the new heaven: The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpent’s food. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain,” says the LORD

Leviticus 17:10-11 And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.

For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul

I can only speak for myself. Nothing wrong with single family homes. I work delivery and it's a delight the many ways people do them up. Great place for families. But the market is a little skewed. We don't have enough places for single people. A LOT of single family homes are used for groups of adults renting together, which in my experience is where so much of socialist torture woke me up. We're talking living with unrelated people who might have access to your stuff, your food, your social life, and try to assert tyranny over it. I live in the fastest growing city in America, and until recently three times the size of Manhattan was zoned for SFH (which is 3/4 the size of the city). I've heard counts the country is short of housing units by like 10 million. There's not enough market choice, skewing the prices and having people straining to afford their apartments or commute ridiculously long times or distances to their houses in some places. All of that takes away from time doing what you love. Zoning violates property rights, and property taxes play into this too. I really think it's a linchpin issue for breaking us out of our current slavery. Endless, low-intensity, often soul-deadening suburbia is in part the result of decades of social engineering and propped up highly by subsidies. Even your average cul-de-sac doesn't pay itself off in terms of the property taxes paid on it before it needs to be replaced. tl;dr We need a free market in housing

This is anti-capitalist bs. What is a person supposed to do with their life but keep moving forward?

I just like to think of and visit the one full time job that insisted on full masking and recommended the jab. Even while I was there, my boss told me in private she got the D E L TA a day after her booster. Conspicuously, they were way tougher keeping masks on the two non-white males (I'm not the guy who looks for that pattern, it just became painfully obvious to me and the other guy dealing with that after a few months). I was a temp, and after they let me go they offered me a chance to reapply a couple times both before and after masks wound down.my old boss pulled me aside once to say "thanks for being cool". I had one of the electric bikes they sold, and was already making more on a delivery business using it. They released a new folding bike which was a clear downgrade in features for higher price. Over the months since I'll regularly visit to shorter lines, fewer hours open, and smaller staff. They've fallen from the top seller and I'm not planning to get a replacement from them in the future.

I like to think the same about the Bill of Rights. We don't owe our rights to the government, government recognizes our rights and defends them. If they don't they're subject to ire from their citizens, and that's probably been used as justification external conquerors (in modern history for sure) to attack them.

Well yeah it's unraveling pretty quickly in the last couple of years and I for one am pretty happy about it as. And this is pretty underreported. But WA has only been seen as a solidly corrupt state since the mid 2000s. When a gubernatorial election with this exact process (and corrupt judges to legitimize the results) worked in the corrupt machine's favor and residents have been gaslighted to normalize the corruption ever since.

I've heard it forcefully argued that no corporate monopoly has ever existed without government collusion

the thing about 1984 is that Winston stands down, and the end of the book is his happy acquiescence. pretty demoralizing

You can always put a mirror on your handlebars. People aren't necessarily trying to kill you with their car it presents a massive liability to them. Plus music can function as a continuous less-cheesy bell if you're on mixed pedestrian paths. And it's just a nice aesthetic
