Greta Thunberg could have, by now, carved out a very comfortable life for herself as a liberal grifter-celebrity offering platitudes about personal responsibility at Davos. Instead she connected the dots between ecocide, capital, and empire, aiming squarely at the heart of the beast. And now fresh out of captivity she downplays her own suffering to recenter the urgency of aid to the Palestinian people. No wonder she’s hated by the fascist+lib coalition that rules this world.

      Those are so easy to make they’re likely accidents. Literally just leave some random fruit in water and you’ll probably get alcohol or vinegar.

        Easy in retrospect, yes. So easy, that now even neurotypical people can follow recipes and make good beer or wine.

        But it takes a special sort of nerd to notice the differences in when that random spoiled fruit turns to alcohol and when it goes straight to vinegar. It takes a deeply different mindset to get obsessed with that question and do the work to figure out how to control the process by experimenting.

      Yeah whoever invented beer was probably given leader of the tribe lifetime status.

      Although jokes aside it probably wasn’t very strong, it was more about finding way to purify water
