It's the same conversations but everyone uses the word "liberate" instead so it's much more pleasant

"The economy" is just money in motion. Like how electric charges moving create light, moving money carries and creates value in the exchange. When rich people soak up money from millions of people, they destroy all that value and the economy stagnates. When millions of people are given money and then spend it in millions of ways, the global economy improves.
We optimize our economy around stagnate money sitting in septic pools, when we should be trying to build an ocean of money that never stops flowing.
Check out this great looping animation version that I definitely made myself!
Her story behind this is so funny too. She's claims she was already sitting there, when Putin and a handler just walked up and sat down. No one said anything because no one spoke Russian (though Putin speaks English and German, and apparently didn't have a translater handy at this international event). Since no one could talk, they awkwardly got up after a while and walked off!
Sounds extremely plausible and defensible to me, don't see what people are so hung up about! /s
Visit your nearest aquarium! They often have a petting tank where you can touch rays and small sharks. And if not, hey, at least the aquarium is still great!
Some alcohol cooks off when used this way, but not all. Be cautious when cooking for others to mention this so non-drinkers can make an informed choice.
It can be a delicious addition though: alcohol dissolves flavor and aromatic compounds that water and fat cannot, so you get a lot of unique flavors especially from barrel-aged drinks like whisky and wine.
Sounds like the octopus wrangler knows how to leverage the behaviors of the various animals around it towards it's own ends. Pretty interesting! I'm also curious about their potential follow ups to see if they have memory for and can recognize previous group members.

My mother raises hens and a dozen birds can actually make so many eggs that our entire family has trouble using them all. A bird lays on average one egg a day, and pasture-raised eggs are so rich as to be almost unpalatable to eat directly.
I don't think every farm needs to have some strict limit like that, but more numerous, smaller, more localized farms would be better for everyone in almost every way. Better environmentally, more humane to the birds, people get fresher and higher quality eggs, and more people are employed. Also more limited damage from diseases, droughts, and so on.
Our current system isnt just bad because "factories bad." It's bad because it's heavily centralized and top-down controlled. This is much cheaper to operate and funnels money towards the owner much better, but is so much worse in every way that local farms are better.
We're making millions of birds suffer and getting shittier, more expensive product because of it so less than a dozen people (the real bad eggs) can stay filthy rich.
Arch? Only if you have time to maintain it and do regular updates! I just use Mint (btw) and have auto-updates turned on. It only bricks the machine once or twice a year, easily resolved with a quick reinstall.
