This.

Please tell us what we can do.

There's a whole group of people who are ready to pitch in 🫡

You, sir, are clearly not one of the initiated

The word capitalism was invested by socialists. Why should anyone support the "-ism" of capital itself? I'd rather talk about free markets, voluntarism, or respecting other people's property.

"Resumestr" is live! https://crafters.amethyst.social/

This is a basic version for desktops only. There are still a lot of little things to add, like the hiding of sections the author won't use, but it's getting there.

Feel free to fork the code and change the design for your own: https://github.com/vitorpamplona/crafters

Why not name it "Curriculum Vitor?"

This post is kind of gross but I have to ask.

I try to look at the world through the lens of evolutionary theory. It’s what makes most sense to me. A runny nose kind of makes sense in that your body seems to be trying to eliminate toxins. But instinctively people don’t blow their nose when it starts to run. People didn’t have tissues to blow into before. And when you look at babies and kids, they don’t instinctively blow their nose when they’re sick. When I was a kid with a runny nose, I would keep sniffing everything back up until it ended up in my throat and, at that point, I would just swallow it. I know it’s gross but most kids do that without thinking about it. Even animals like cats and dogs don’t have a way to flush out their mucus. My cat was sick and that mucus never left its body. We had to invent things like neti pots to flush out our sinuses but this isn’t a natural process. Our ancestors couldn’t do things like that. If animals and babies don’t instinctively blow mucus out of their nose, could it be bad for us to do that? It sounds gross but during allergy season I find myself blowing my nose constantly throughout the day and it makes me wonder what effect that has on my body. Mucus isn’t made out of thin air. My body needs to use water and probably a bunch of other resources like electrolytes to make and excrete mucus. As a kid I wouldn’t ever spit out phlegm from my throat but I do this at least twice an hour as an adult. I got into the habit of doing this after smoking weed a few times. It sounds nasty but what if there is something in mucus that our bodies need and it’s using this route to try and get it back into our digestive system?

Yes it is supposed to go into your digestive system, or at least what doesn't come out is supposed to go there. Mucus has antibodies in it that kill/disable/injur pathogens and carry them into the acidy destruction zone that is your stomach.

Your immune system learns to finish killing the pathogens. One reason you can spread disease via mucus coming out is because YOUR mucus and YOUR immune system work together, and someone else's immune system may not be able to deal with pathogens that were injured by your mucus.

Also mucus simply grabs organisms that are trying to establish a base in your throat and carries them to the stomach where they can't do their thing anymore.
