The scale of these "block permit" killings and the amount of suffering this would cause is incomparable to industrial farming. This is not worth worrying about

I find it a bit strange that you seem to be assigning moral equivalence to animals, plants, viruses and bacteria. Animals should be of top priority because they are the most likely to feel the highest amount of pain by our actions, and we c

Warren wouldn't characterize a long-term investment as speculating, even with no dividends and no voting rights. Speculation is when you buy something for its short-term price movements, whereas investing is buying a share of ownership

So instead of agreeing that there are extra costs to the employees working from home, you argue that they should move to a cheaper city in order to afford a home office. That's definitely... an option. But consider that this is a trade

Humans are weird. We like seeing people succeed against hardship and enjoy reading success stories. But the enjoyment of their success can’t be to excess, otherwise people will see them as unscrupulous or arrogant. Not a slight against you
