I started drinking it at work in high school, the place I worked had a deal with a coffee shop so we got free coffee. I always drank it with cream until I went to university and the first day I woke up and realized I didn't buy any, so I decided to just drink it black and never bought more cream.

It's incredibly sterile. Even the sailors in white suits had 0 blood on them when they got shot, and the one who got his throat slit had a paper cut worth of blood if that!

Watch me get caught trying to sneak in to Lenin's mausoleum to split a six pack with him

Since the dawn of man is really not that long
As every galaxy was formed in less time than it takes to sing this song
A fraction of a second and the elements were made
The bipeds stood up straight, the dinosaurs all met their fate
They tried to leap but they were late
And they all died (they froze their asses off ) The oceans and Pangea, see ya wouldn't wanna be ya
Set in motion by the same big bang
It all started with the big bang

True, I'm not saying they adhere to an actual communinist way of organizing vault society, but the day to day has to be communal and as far as I'm aware fairly egalitarian. From just a surface level view of the vaults it seems like housing is allocated based on the needs of the vault dwellers, everyone participates in the labour required to keep the vault working and everyone alive, and effort is made to place people in careers that make best use of their talents.

This ignores the whole vault-tech evil experiments such as the one mentioned in the show that is understocked to force the residents to compete with one another, but in the "normal" vaults they aren't (to the best of my knowledge) operating on a capitalist mode of society. You don't see a vault dweller worried about making rent, though I won't rule out that it happened

Something I've been thinking about that wasn't stated in the show, wouldn't the vaults mostly run off a quasi-communist way of organization? Nobody (except vault-tech) owns the vault and it's contents, it seems that everyone contributes to the best of their abilities (even giving people like the little brother multiple chances to find a place where he can contribute) and receives what they need (I don't think they have to pay rent or buy food). I don't know if the vault dwellers even have money.

I don't think it's intentional, but it is funny to me that the solution to surviving the ultimate capitalist crisis is a communist way of life

Gunna call out Robert Fedvans' Behind the Bastards subreddit for this. You mention that you think that depicting an Asian man with cartoonishly yellow skin might be related to the Yellow Peril racist trope and all of a sudden it's "The Chinese started it!" and "it's just because Xi doesn't like it!".

Yet when you point out that similar racist tropes like the mascots for certain American sports teams are racist caricatures with cartoonishly colored skin (red in this case) and that people understand that as racist and it's crickets from them

Ngl I kinda think my heavy weed habit (addiction? I'll face that later) has helped me dodge covid so far, along with the regular measures like masking, vaccines, being a hermit, etc.

Not that I'm aware of, as far as I'm aware it was one of them that the authorities essentially shrugged at and said "it's just one of those things"
