Yellow vests 9th inning recap

in #blockchain6 years ago

I'm so done with lush.

I feel like i'm the lush;

Drunk on the hype, i let them do whatever they want to my body
and in the end i will convince myself it's what i wanted
"still better than 90% of guys .. Products out there."

No, it's not. It's the exact same trash you get everywhere, just prettier. More thoroughly green-washed.

I don't get how I let myself believe it was food grade for so long.
Probably because it's sooo.. Lush.
Must have been the candyshop aesthetic, the perfumes, and that they cut you a slice of some shampoo brick and wrap it in paper.
It comes in bars with names like "Splashy avocado"
((They've elevated generic packaging to a selling point. ))
Then instead of packaging it in an easily accessible way, they stick it in paper bag printed with the words "Against animal testing"

Easy for you to say, using the exact same ingredients Proctor and Gamble tested for you

Ugh, I'm so embarassed for having fallen for it time and time again.
I'm such a lush.

Here's a quick recipe for everyone they have at lush, escept it is food grade.
Baking soda and vinegar. Mix to different ratios, eider add or leave out an essential oil. Congratulations, you can now open a store.

Oh, right, Gilets Jaune.

It's a political movement, that's for usre. i think the order of business for this movement is stricly political power. One thing I can dispel, is the suspicion that this is a right-wing nationalist movement - unless you're willing to entertain the notion that the main-stream is quite right wing, in which case you could still speak of a 'mainstream political uprising" - almost synonymous with revolution, if the numbers are there. Were the numbers there? 3% of the population is what you need. What i did see in Paris today was many thousands. I want to say, easily seven thousand, perhaps more than ten - and anyone who is trying to say four thousand is openly lying to you and thinks you are an idiot , or someone who will not care enough to call them out on it.

All aroun dthe country they're doing it, and so are other countries. It's like occupy in that respect, except they keep the numbers up week after week after week. Occupy only really saw trafffic on day one, with a handful of people manning the camps the initual push left behind.

This is different.

This is everyone.

I remember trying to find a pattern in what type of people are joining Gilettes jaune. My answer? Everyone. I will say that perhaps ethnic minorities are underrepresented, but .. that might be a result of the framing as much as not.

i'm falling asleep. Going to leave it at that for now.
Something something "GJ needs is a Little Bit of baking soda vinegar: One solution that addresses every grievance and fulfills every demand they're placing. You don't have to have identified the core issue in order to ask the questions that summon forth the core answer .

I believe, that it's decentralization. IIt's in the blockchcain.
