    Rice confirmed sentient and sapient. Vegans everywhere are in tears. International governments are drafting a Bill of Rice to ensure the rights of these beings. Churches are redirecting rice purchased for weddings to be given directly to their missionaries. Little do we know, the grains will soon band together and revolt, and the Rice War will be upon us.

    If rice has feelings, consider the unimaginable horror you’re inflicting when you eat a bowl of it for lunch.

    Should…shouldn’t the one with mold be the I love you one? Since that’s what promoted the most growth and success of life?

    I want to believe that the kids mentioned in posts like this are playing along with their parents’ delusions so they don’t have to sit through another lecture about how the Federal Reserve is a Ponzi scheme and they’re chemtrailing us with fluoride.

          That’s awesome. I have a formative memory as like a 10 year old putting on a magic play for 5 year olds, and our teacher told us that little kids believe in magic and it turned out to be true because they believed what we were doing

      I mean technically the federal reserve is a ponzi scheme they charge interest on money printed requiring more money to be paid back than they printed. Ergo there isn’t enough print money in existence to pay them back.

        Regular economic thinking doesn’t work on the scale of nations. Just like a family having debt is not the same thing as a country having debt.

        Pretty much everyone in the world has no full idea how an economy works and how to best stimulate it. It’s like a trillion moving parts and smart asses always go “yea this pin over here? That’s the one that’s the problem / solution”

        Pretty much no-one knows. We have ideas what’s better / worse but anyone who tells you they’ve got it figured out, is lying.

      Haha you reminded me of a video of some poor young teen having to film his mother making chemtrails disappear by spraying a bottle of vinegar at them.

      He was so unenthused.

      Edit: I can’t find it. My guess it was obv taken down .

        They brought in a special teacher for my AP US history, straight from the Masonic lodge i figure.

        Made the usual teacher, a liberal guy, take a sabatical year.

        Thanks secret government assholes.

        I wanted to dismantle the state for a socialist ideal in at least middle school. I didn’t like punk until freshmen year of high school though, so we all go through changes even if my politics have mostly stayed the same.

        Edit: thinking back on it I remember having an anticapitalist moment in 5th grade, Miss Hill’s class so we’ll scale that back to elementary school.

      Once I saw some amazing effect after talking positively to water too. I came to the scientific conclusion the acid I took was really good.

      Masaru Emoto’s “experiments” are not scientifically legit. They are at best artistic photography. But his so-called science in regard to water/ice crystals is rubbish and does not stand up to scrutiny, it is not reproducible. He makes a lot of money from common people at his events.
