Its Been P Common Knowledge For Decades That Light Pollution Can Be Massively Reduced By Just Putting

its been p common knowledge for decades that light pollution can be massively reduced by just putting shades on streetlamps, and that doing that would save energy, help wildlife, and let us see the stars better, but are society says if u wanna change any minor little tiny thing u gotta dedicate ur whole life to campaigning for it and this is a good ways down the list of priorities for most ppl, so instead i gotta walk past newly-installed streetlamps that are just dumb glass globes that use half their electricity to blast half their light directly into the sky where it does only bad things for no reason and think "we should overthrow the government"

It is not acceptable that Neil Gaiman has failed to issue any response to the allegations against him. Given that back in 2020, he put out an apologetic statement about flouting COVID rules, which, yes, is something worth apologising for, but is on a completely different level of seriousness than what he's accused of now - the silence seems calculated and dishonest. The sort of response that comes from listening to a lawyer who's seen one too many YouTuber cancellations and thinks staying quiet is an amazing beat-the-system life hack - missing or ignoring the fact that it's also a huge message of disrespect and dismissal to, not just those making allegations against him now, but to all victims of this kind of crime. "Your suffering matters less than my reputation, these crimes carry less weight than my career. If I ignore you, you will go away."

It's not good enough. It's just not good enough.

I cannot believe there's absolutely no way to watch free shows and movies anymore, there are too many paid streaming platforms and pirating websites have viruses and ads preventing you from watching it uninterrupted((.)) id rather follow the rules and purchase media moving forward because it is too inconvenient. Seriously, free and no ads or viruses with 1080p streaming is DEAD.
