I wish that was true.

I feel like I never see eggs in anything other than 12 over here in Alberta, but I don't eat a ton of eggs.

Isn't that the same thing?

As a Canadian, the US can have my eggs on the condition of the delivery method being lobbing them over the border at official government buildings.

I'm not sure if it's the official reason, but it would cover up stains.

"this will cover up so many stains..."

What are you even saying?

All throughout history, murder was almost a requirement for creating a better life for people. If we hit a point in society where murder is not okay, that takes away the one final chip the working class has against the rich.

Even just looking at the health insurance side of things, we're talking about a horrible ethically misaligned industry that makes murder look like shoplifting. Ideally no murder has to happen, but it becomes a lot more grey from a utilitarian perspective and when considering the sheer scale that the world operates at.

In an isolated system, free from external dipshits sure.

While I'm not in the camp that would make fun of him for his appearance (his existence is already a big enough joke), I think the logic comes from separating shaming people for their body versus attacking someone that you dislike and picking their body as the target. The key difference being in the reason for the body-centered insult; one is tied to hate for different looking people, whereas the other is tied to hating the person and finding something to attack about them.

LaVar Burton would like a word.

There's something so funny about her mental picture of Musk handing the president of the United States an iPad to play with while he tries to seize power.

There's no real advantage to joining the largest instances, you can view all their content from your fediverse account regardless of which instances you're on (unless it's been defederated which only applies to a small number).

Too many users/ traffic can overload the servers reduce the experience for everyone. Instances are mostly hosted by individuals and becoming too large, too quickly could have a financial impact on the owner.

Additionally, if any instance ever gets too large a share of users on the fediverse, the way they operate and their rules become "the standard". Then we're basically back at Reddit.

Diversifying instances is good in the long run!
