Las Vegas Growth 1972-2010

Xaielao says...

Makes me think of just how much drinking water must be diverted every day to go to Vegas. I think I now understand why some of our greatest rivers of yesterday have become bare creeks that only run a few months a year. It's damn unnatural to build a city in the desert like that.

Having a glass of wine is not abusing drugs. It is a sin to be drunk, it is also a sin to drink to get buzzed, but it is not a sin to have a glass of wine with Jesus at the last supper.


Ahem.

>> ^shinyblurry:
A Christian does not use drugs receationally


Having a glass of wine with dinner is "using drugs recreationally". Alcohol is a drug. If you're drinking wine, you're not doing it for medicinal or nutritional purposes, so you're using it recreationally.

When Jesus turned the water into wine, why didn't he just tell the people to drink water?

Answer: because only an asshole would serve water to his guests at a party.

The wonderful process by which yeast turns sugar into alcohol is one of the few arguments I'll accept that if there is a god, he might not be totally indifferent to us.

LED bulbs will soon be more affordable, and they use even less electricity than CFLs, however, they can be sort of blindingly harsh.
This one looks nice, and like they addressed the harsh light, http://www.ledsmagazine.com/news/8/8/7
>> ^notarobot:
Be careful how you change your bulbs. The 5 mg of mercury in a single CFL is enough to make as much as 50,000 litres of water undrinkable according to Canadian drinking water standerds.

As far as Fraking goes, the only controversy is how these companies continue to get away with it. Water means life. *Quality PSA.

If you cut out all the back and forth rhetoric that inevitably spews between oil(and gas) corporations and communities who want clean air and water and a future, it all comes down to neoclassical economics' false dichotomy.
Corporations (and left and right wing politicians who over romanticize the free market) will tell citizens,
"you can either have:
a) a strong economy, or
b) a clean environment."
and
they
will
insist
we
can't
have
both.

In Canada for the last couple elections people have been scare mongered by this false dichotomy.
I tell you, there is a sustainable economy, there is a sustainable future: dare to dream. Let's all grow the f ck up and build the new economy that defies the bullshit neoclassical economic lies that have been entrenched in our culture. They will tell you the choice is between a job or cancer. Fuck. that. shit.
It's time for the next industrial revolution, the green revolution, I'm in. Change your light bulbs, then change your leaders.

Drinking Water in Space

Some Little Bug Is Going to Find You

ctrlaltbleach says...

In these days of indigestion it is oftentimes a question
As to what to eat and what to leave alone.
Every microbe and bacillus has a different way to kill us
And in time they all will claim us for their own.
There are germs of every kind in every food that you can find
In the market or upon the bill of fare.
Drinking water's just as risky as the so-called "deadly" whiskey
And it's often a mistake to breathe the air.

Cho: For some little bug is going to get you someday.
Some little bug will creep behind you some day.
Then he'll send for his bug friends
And all your troubles they will end,
For some little bug is gonna find you someday.

The inviting green cucumber, it's most everybody's number
While sweetcorn has a system of its own.
Now, that radish seems nutritious, but its behavior is quite vicious
And a doctor will be coming to your home.
Eating lobster, cooked or plain, is only flirting with ptomaine,
While an oyster often has a lot to say.
And those clams we eat in chowder make the angels sing the louder
For they know that they'll be with us right away.

For some little bug is going to get you someday.
Some little bug will creep behind you some day.
Eat that juicy sliced pineapple ;and the sexton dusts the chapel
Oh, yes, some little bug is gonna find you some day.

When cold storage vaults I visit, I can only say, "What is it
Makes poor mortals fill their systems with such stuff?"
Now, at breakfast prunes are dandy if a stomach pump is handy
And a doctor can be called quite soon enough.

Eat a plate of fine pig's knuckles and the headstone cutter chuckles
While the gravedigger makes a mark upon his cuff.
And eat that lovely red bologna and you'll wear a wood kimona
As your relatives start packing up your stuff.

Those crazy foods they fix, they'll float us 'cross the River Styx
Or start us climbing up the Milky Way.
And those meals they serve in courses mean a hearse and two black horses
So before meals, some people always pray.

Luscious grapes breed appendicitis, while their juice leads to gastritis
So there's only death to greet us either way.
Fried liver's nice, but mind you, friends will follow close behind you
And the papers, they will have nice things to say.

For some little bug is going to get you someday.
Some little bug will creep behind you some day.
Eat that spicy bowl of chili, on your breast they'll plant a lily .
Oh, yes, some little bug is gonna find you some day.

Second Hand

MarineGunrock says...

As gross as hoarders are, I do hate how incredibly wasteful our society is. It's really disgusting at some of the things that people do - like, people who will ONLY drink bottled water. That's gotta be the most disgusting thing I can think of. There are nearly a billion people on the planet without access to safe drinking water and you're bitching about the taste of your tap water,(which is INCREDIBLY safe) so you BUY tap water in a bottle? Yes, most bottled water is from a municipal source.

Louis CK on Consumers and Capitalism (part 1/3)

shagen454 says...

One of the many reasons a decade ago I moved to the West Coast from the East Coast - fucking chain stores & outlets. God damn that shit. Don't get me wrong all that shit is all around the West Coast too - but it's not as prevalent. I mean, in my neighborhood people fought and won against a fucking American Apparel store going in. People have to wake up and fight back, stop being a bunch of cowards.

There aren't even any Starbucks in my neighborhood but there are tons of great coffee places that sell, really immaculately tasting coffee. To get to a Starbucks you'd have to go far, far away to get to one of those those sellout financial neighborhoods and then there's a Starbucks on ever corner and possibly a couple Starbucks per block. There's only one shitty corporation in this humongous neighborhood and that is a McDonald's. I have no idea how they did it.

It doesn't even make any sense. Yeah, if you want to get fat you could spend $7-8 on a shitty burger and some fries and some shitty sugar water or else you could go to one of the two hundred taquerias where you could get the craziest nachos you've ever seen that you'd be crazy to eat all by yourself for $5.50. And you get chips & salsa for free and dammit people, just drink water. It's also free.

Anyone up for a Los Angeles Sift Up? (Sift Talk Post)

ant says...

>> ^Issykitty:

They have other things to drink there, I'm sure @ant. Chocolate milk, sodas, water, water with ice, water without ice, water with lemon, iced tea, orange juice, apple juice, tomato juice, lemonade, club soda, virgin fruit drinks, iced tea/ lemonades (also known as arnold palmers), cherry cokes, shirley temples...


"And then?" Yep, I just drink water with no ice since it's free and good for my body. I just can't drink too much or else I will pee. Funny, I just went to TGIF today for lunch with my old Christian friends.

Battleships in Minecraft

>> ^quantumushroom:

Neat, but really, isn't this just virtual Legos?


You say that like it is a bad thing. Spent about 70 hours on minecraft in a few weeks...must, drink water.

Very addictive, we host our own server, so it is kind of like mmoish...just no missions, or story, or anything really.
