  • I mean, what’s your definition of “safe?” There are benefits and drawbacks to every form of currency. Credit is centralized and benefits massive pieces of shit and requires computing power. Cash is untraceable, and it doesn’t fund anything in particular (minus the federal reserve, but that’s a huge complicated stupid convo), but if you lose it or get it stolen, you can’t file a complaint and get it credited back to you.

    I’ve used cash over the internet. It’s a matter of mailing it and getting a product in return. Or you can use the apps that aren’t linked to visa and PayPal. But it’s all a trade off, for sure.

    Also, we need to stop thinking of shopping on the Internet as the only way to get products for money. Buy local every opportunity you can, that’s the best answer







  • I feel like I’d be embarrassed to still listen to the same music I listened to at 14. 14 year old me didn’t have terrible taste, but goddamn there has been so much music since. I’m nearing 40 and I’m still finding new and more interesting or challenging music to listen to



  • Even if there weren’t forced conscription, actions like this force the people from the aggressor country to face the reality of what their government is doing. If they are not welcome to vacation destinations and everywhere they go they are reminded that their country is proudly slaughtering and starving people—if they’re not given any room to pretend things are normal, they will demand an ability to return to normal. They would pressure their govt to stop the genocide.

    So even in the case that these people hadn’t been conscripted and were therefore partially responsible for the apartheid being inflicted on Palestinians, this would still be an acceptable action.

    Stop the genocide

    Make the perpetrators and any supporters uncomfortable and unwelcome until they change.

    Things are not normal right now. There is literally another holocaust happening. As we sit here typing on our phones. And you are defending the perpetrators. Only thinking of these people here as “Jews” and therefore the perpetually victims no matter what is what’s actually antisemitic.
