The article briefly mentions this, but having lived in states with plastic bag bans, and states without - well drive through the countryside and count all the plastic bags in ditches, trees, streams. Paper might be more intensive to produce, but the lingering effects of plastic bags are being underestimated I think.

It’s crazy how Apple out there all “hey come spend $2k on a phone” right as I’m nervously looking for the door. How much do I really use the ecosystem?
No one will ever forget the world’s hippiest tech company bribing Trump with gold.
Amazon is genuinely hard because I am very poor and there’s often a big price difference on Amazon. I am working on it. I’m a millennial and frugality is a core requirement of survival.

18·9 days agoI worked at a factory in the rural south the year (2022) they quietly did away with marijuana testing, even for spot violations. Turns out the standard reasoning, “the insurance company says,” doesn’t really matter… they didn’t care and allowed a 9-panel to be used in all testing matters.
The unofficial reason I heard is, they go through the same workers on rotation, the good employees get hired back and forth. Drunks are chaotic, tweakers introduce drugs and are chaotic. Stoners are quiet and show up on time, and cause 0% of the fights, and tend to come with less of a rap sheet for terroristic threats and domestics.
They almost tripped over themselves to look the other way on my stonership…

10·12 days agoYeah the Waltons aren’t super liked outside of that little town, and there are plenty inside it who aren’t fond of them anymore as the city bends to their whims. Sometimes you benefit from what they do, sometimes it fucks up something you liked already. A little of their guilt money is in my nonprofit’s bank account. I am happy to be using it for things they’d probably hate.

But wearables are like 3/4 of Apple’s strategy for the future and optical is a huge part of that and the Vision Pro is just them getting started, not them bowing out. They just want others to enter the space and start making these expensive mistakes so Apple doesn’t have to, including overcoming the social barrier of filming literally everything. It’s coming. Just like folks didn’t really resist social media, we’re not going to really resist this.
Air America lasted about 5 years in the 2000s, and it was exactly this. The Republicans would never let their stations die like Air America did.
