If we actually cared about government waste in the US, we would go after the insurance and tax prep companies. Fucking leaches on society. They only exist to siphon money from people.

I think using “creators” is fine because it implies someone using their creative abilities instead of people that have creative abilities, which is everyone, whether they think they do or not.

Referring to artists as ‘creatives’.

It implies to me that some have the capacity to be creative and some don’t, which is simply ridiculous. It’s also pretentious as fuck.

You’re complaining about someone getting to go to a buffet when you are starving while someone just flew halfway across a country on a private jet to eat a steak down the block from you.

If you want to complain about money not going to get everyone basic needs met, then team together with the people who more often than not are also struggling to get by and target who actually has the money and hoards it for power instead of using it to eliminate hunger from the world.

It’s not like every problem in space is running out of oxygen in 90 minutes. I can imagine plenty of scenarios where having additional resources in the matter of days vs months would make the difference in a life or death scenario. Especially if we were able to establish a decent support network on the ISS or other space stations.

Not to mention you would be able to realistically cycle out astronauts on a moon base, whereas being assigned to a mars base would be a one way trip for many.

I have a filter button at the bottom of my ellipsis menu that lets me block the community, user, or instance.

Getting a permit means getting an inspection to prevent literally that.
