  • Recently, some solid gold asshole tried to close one of the two nude beaches in our city by getting a playground installed on it (the nude beach is in the wealthy part of town, nestled between $6.2m dollar homes in a neighborhood that only recently become staggeringly wealthy. The beach itself is tiny, but heavily used.

    Luckily, hundreds and hundreds of people showed up at the tiny community center, all in favor of protecting the nude beach. People were packed in, and a line stretched out deep into the lobby and out the main doors. They keep trying to close it, but people love it too much. Realistically, the city needs more nude beaches, not less. Beach goer cars line the neighborhood for blocks, and the park and bike racks are always completely full.






  • Will that achieve anything?

    Yes! Various countries implement a “traffic light” style health meter that is legally required to be on the front of packaging that also gives a little subtext to say what causes it to be yellow or red (least healthy). So it will say stuff like “excess sodium” or “too much sugar” which actually does work. People don’t even realize that some staples are considered UPFs because of preservatives (Tortillas), or are otherwise unhealthy (too much sugar and preservatives in ‘health’ cereals and yogurts).

    This allows people to find staples that do not contain shocking amounts of sugar, preservatives, or highly processed options within the same category. It’s worked when implemented well :)












  • You gotta have a distribution network the same way the heart needs arteries, veins, and capillaries. Without a delivery network, that aid won’t go more than the distance some people can walk. The elderly and children would never get it. Those in other cities might not get it. Not to mention how heavy water is. Most can’t carry enough for a family of five each day, in a different city.

    The warehouses allow them to coordinate food/water/first aid/etc and send it on trucks to distribution centers where it can be distributed equally without stampedes, or the healthiest/most well armed simply taking everything.
