Sitting in my car at the peak of a tall bridge in the middle of a crazy rainstorm.

It's 3AM. I don't want to go home. Ever.

Suddenly car pulls over and guy gets out and knocks on the window to see if I need any help. I tell him the car was acting up (it wasn't) and it might start (it did). He offered to follow me home in case it died again.

If he hadn't followed me home I might have decided to jump that night.

He probably thought he helped a stranded motorist during a crazy storm.

Maybe not this particular tree, but yeah. Shelves, house framing and siding, etc. We're a horrible greedy little species.

Goods Unite Us is another similar app, showing which companies donate to political parties. It does have some paywall issues but it's better that nothing.

I left during the first mass exodus. I miss the large active communities and the wealth of knowledge.

But I don't eat meat, I don't wear name brand clothing, I don't give evil corporations any more money to than is absolutely necessary (we all need gasoline), and I DON'T GO BACK TO REDDIT.

Even worse. Many of our ancient forests were cut into boards for personal profit.

We could always eat the rich.

Never took an oath, but I'd stand beside you.
