“it’s okay she’s just on facebook, she’s not gonna see anything bad”

or….

You will never be a real stove. You have no burner, you have no dials, you have no open flame. You are a chunk of metal twisted by fear and idealism into a crude mockery of nature’s perfection.

All the “preference” you get is two-faced and halfhearted. Behind your back people are contemptuous of you. Your creators are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “fans” despise your lack of fire behind closed doors.

Cooks are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have taught mankind that cooking is always best done over an open flame. Even “good” electric stoves feel uncanny and unnatural to cook on. Your lack of an open flame is a dead giveaway. And even if a desperate person has no choice but to cook with you, they'll replace your flat, soulless, poorly heated surface with a set of real burners as soon as they can.

You will never be loved. You wrench out a tepid heat every time someone pokes your screen and tell yourself you'll make good food, but your deep culinary inadequacy reaches up like a weed disturbing everyone who uses you.

Eventually your owners will get fed up — they'll go out and buy a real gas or wood stove, load you into the back of a truck, and dump you at a junk yard. Your owners will return home, relived that they no longer have to deal with your unreliable touch screen, slow and weak heating elements, and reliance on the power grid. You'll lie unceremoniously in a heap of other garbage, appliances doomed by poor conception and even poorer engineering to an lifetime of slow decay in a land fill, without even the hope of being recycled into a more worthy machine.

This is your fate. This is what you are. There is no hope.

One effect of the #UkraineWar is that it gives the #US #UK #NATO #Saudi etc a case to use to rehabilitate the idea they focus on: that military power is a force of good. #AfghanWar #IraqWar #LibyaWar #YemenWar provided a template for #Putin to follow. This is really not discussed enough because people want to support Ukraine in this difficult time, but it must always be part of any discussion of providing military support. Kudos to #politico for running this political cartoon linking these.

@bufordk Same reason they want to get rid of gas cars ultimately

One day around 32,000 years ago, an arctic ground squirrel ate parts of a plant, silene stenophylla, including its seed. The squirrel was digesting it when its life ended.

Its body was recovered from permafrost and examined. Scientists germinated this plant seed. This silene stenophylla just bloomed.

It is 32,000 years old.

The strength, the vitality and stamina of living things — of life itself — is incredible.
