Thanks for the summary. Winning the world cup shouldn’t be a burden that Messi and team have to bear because of hurt egos.

I read MacBook Pro five times and wondered what was wrong with dragging it to Maryland.

Pinocchio beats Toy Story after decades for me.

But this would not have been if Russia didn’t start this inhumane war.
There would be no “traitors” and everyone would be alive.
Edit : I had tears in my eyes.

And a charger with the wire and plug together instead of being sold separately with some humbug greenwashing notion of sustainability.

There are Christian communities that help women in sex work by offering essentials, food and a sense of community. There will always be helpers.

Such guys are just little boys who never got much in life, with absolutely no trophies nor victories that they have no choice but to turn to their appendages as a final means of feeling better about themselves.
Comfort yourself with that knowledge.
Edit : I bet some didn’t even understand that I was criticising the guy. Redditors are absolutely horrible at reading and comprehension. Makes me wonder how many of you actually had an education.

I don’t use a mouse, mate.
If that’s the case, then would you not say that all artworks are unnecessary and therefore contributing to climate disaster?
Or musical instruments, being made of different metals and materials, shipped around the world, also superfluous and we should not have instruments?
You see, if you put it that way, then virtually everything in the world is a waste.
So instead of telling people what to buy or what to do, we should just aim not to buy unnecessary things that we don’t use. If someone finds the mouse useful and wants it, go ahead. He/She can cut back on something else.
It’s not a zero-sum game. Someone using this mouse could be one who cycles, doesn’t use an aircon and have solar panels. Conversely, someone who doesn’t use this mouse could be someone with 3 cars, blasts aircons all day and wastes resources mining cryptocurrency. But it’s much easier to pounce on what we can see, eh?
The mouse (or any other object) is not the issue. It’s the attitude of unnecessary consumerism.

It’s creative.
While I’ll never use it, I can appreciate the creativity that went behind this idea.
If someone likes it, they can use it. If not, they can just not purchase it.
Why do people love to whine about something existing which doesn’t fit them nor their purpose?
I just came off a thread of a guy who relentlessly complains (11 comments) about a doctor seeking attention because he made the video about his achievement — The doctor suffered from a condition but made a medical breakthrough which saved himself and saves thousands of lives. But how dare he make a video telling the world his life story eh? How dare he? /s
Some people live their entire lives to take others down. It’s just sad to see this fleshing out everywhere on Reddit & in real life.

Which is ridiculous.
The glory of Argentinians bringing it home. The team that fought together. I cheered for you guys and prayed so hard France wouldn’t win because they were used to being the big boys. I wanted Croatia & Argentina to make it. I was screaming when Argentina did.
And then to read after all that, he has to live in fear because of the threats extended to basically anyone related to him? That’s unacceptable and shameful for the government to stoop this low.
