i bet skincare. massive industry with a lot of money to be made based on extremely dubious claims, attached to a field of highly trained people who have financial interests in those claims.

i basically had the same response to that exhibit

when i fly I tape the flight safety instructions pamphlet over the screen. it helps some. yes, this means I always have tape on me, it's because I'm a freak with gaffer tape wrapped around my water bottle.

yeah i've had the tabs off for a while and frankly i'm happier this way. i just deal with shit as it comes in and never have more than 15 emails in my inbox at once. if they took snooze away i'd be angry though

my longer term plan is to leave. but, a few months ago I turned off the tab sorting myself, archived all my emails so I was at inbox zero, and have been unsubscribing like mad. I only do email on my laptop in-browser so I still have spellcheck. I delete stuff immediately. it's manageable.

"that didn't make me as mad as x does" is a fine position to take, but we need a sustained diversity of responses to the sustain diversity of insults. What makes me angry also gives me energy to do something about it, so I'm fine letting my anger guide my action/attention at least some of the time.

yeah i mean, I call my rep complaining about twelve thousand things a month, including the socialism thing. is this a waste of my energy? I don't know, and neither do any of the people saying it is. I'm certain it does more than someone's post telling me I'm wasting my energy calling about it.
