Sometimes a left-handed countersink will work. Put it in a power drill and run it in reverse.

Cows produce less than 2% of the total annual global greenhouse gas emissions.

It just sounds worse when you put it in percentages of a percentage. When put in perspective, it's a drop in the bucket. This is classic misdirection. The fossil fuel industry would love it if we wasted our time going after the meat industry instead of them.

Wut? Are you seriously saying we have time to fuck around with this? We aren't even coming close to addressing the largest contributor to global warming...we're too busy banning plastic straws, and complaining about cow farts.
Methane from cows totals about 2% of our total global emissions. Burning fossil fuels for energy equals about 70%. These campaigns to shift the priorities to the smaller contributors is exactly what the fossil fuel industry wants. It's a joke that people keep falling for the same trick over and over again.

No...you tackle the biggest problems first, then mop up the small ones once you've stabilized the situation. That's triage.

There's really no comparison. These leaks are pumping thousands of tons of methane directly into the atmosphere every day, and there are a lot of them around the world. No matter how many cow farts you count, it's a drop in the bucket compared to shit like this.

And vegans still want us to believe that cow farts are the problem?

That's very true. Suppressing your feelings doesn't get rid of them, it just buries them for later.

Or...finding something positive in your past trauma is actually a really good way to finally accept it, and move the fuck on. Holding onto those negative feelings, will only serve to habitualize them. Your brain gets better at whatever you practice. Practice negative thinking, it gets better at thinking negatively. Practice positive thinking, it gets better at thinking positively.

Reply to ELI5: What is the difference between fatalism and nihilism? by bluejester12
Nihilism falls backwards into the abyss, with eyes closed and arms outstretched.
Fatalism dives in headfirst, wearing a shit-eating grin from ear to ear.
