What you’ve essentially said is that you’re patting yourself on the back for buying from supplier A instead of supplier B, and that giving up meat would suck. You say “humane” in the same sentence as you do of killing and eating an animal that almost certainly lived a terrible life. I am here to ask you to wake up and take real action. You can do better. I’m all for harm reduction, as we can’t entirely eliminate cruelty, so I agree that it’s not all or nothing. It seems you’re under the impression that you’re doing something by buying from a different supplier, and I don’t agree much with that. Maybe your heart’s in the right place, and that’s a start.
Dealing with a restricted diet sucks less than living with the guilt of the absolutely cruel abuses that you’d be enabling by buying meat. Those animals feel fear and pain just like you do.
Hi friend. English is stupid sometimes, but I assure you that the word “antisemitism” refers exclusively to Jews. Again I know it’s counterintuitive, but that’s just how it is. You’ll experience less friction of you just go with it instead of try to convince everyone that the word means something else. Cheers.
What’s that do? Won’t it just get washed away with wiper blades, or rain?
You can use FolderSync to sync your .md dir to nextcloud. It suited me well because I use foldersync for other purposes, too
Folks, don’t worry. lud approved it.
11·1 year agoreports from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found people who started smoking before age 21 are more likely to have a high nicotine dependence, and raising the age to buy tobacco to 21 impacts the sale of such products.
found average monthly cigarette sales in Hawaii dropped about 4.4% following the new law. California sales declined 11.7%, and mainland sales dropped 10.6%.

Why isn’t this it?
People are attracted to whoever they’re attracted to. Saying someone should get psychiatric treatment for the sexual preferences in their own head sounds misguided, similar to “pray the gay away”
One of us! One of us!
Based on what…?

Why don’t you pray about it?
Maybe I lack imagination. What backfire should France expect with this limitation of public practice of religion?
Agree to disagree I guess. I think we’re better off without sky fairies, regardless of whether they’re named Zeus, Jesus, Allah, whatever. The society that I’d want to live in would discourage public practices of religion.
Another point I should have made above. As Dawkins says, normalizing religion gives the especially nutty and violent ones room to breathe. They don’t stick out so badly when their neighbor believes and practices 90% of what they do.
Giving religion safe spaces in society normalizes it. Normalizing religion does hurt people. It hurts the mind’s ability to think rationally, not to mention all the intolerance that seems to come from it.
This is the dumbest thing I’ve read all week. Congrats. Lol
