“This is how you should advocate for veganism. I should know because it didn’t work for me.”

“Argh, I got Athlete’s Dick…”

I don’t do IT, I troubleshoot aviation electrical and avionics systems, and the practice still holds true. “Why are you checking what I already verified?” “Just trying to make sure I’m on the same page as you. It helps me in my own weird way” is a great way to defuse their agitation sometimes.

We can see how well just trying to vote them away is working. Fascists use violence to silence adversaries. All they understand is violence. You will never “moral high ground” a fascist into understanding the error of their ways.

“Doxxing Nazis is just as bad as the Nazis, you guys.” 🤡

Aircraft use tungsten ballast plates. I know it requires hardware, but would that have been viable?

Or the orbital mirrors fell and destroyed three domes, but we’re going in the right direction. We’re gonna rebuild this place.

Plus, exchanges in material goods within communities where money hadn’t been invented would show that people didn’t barter, they gave their goods away to their neighbors, and the good deed would be remembered and reciprocated in times of need. You can look up “Gift Economy” in Wikipedia.

Dairy contains a morphine-like substance so baby calves are drawn to it. Cheese is literally addictive.

While many scientists believe cats to be obligate carnivores, one study attempted to show that many of the studies conducted in plant-based diets to not show any detrimental effects, when the test wasn’t conducted poorly or there was already a selection bias in place.

Just something to consider. This doesn’t cement veganism for domestic felines, but it does show that better studies need to be conducted.

Let me introduce a fresh hell: we call them Apex screws.

People can have issues with both. This isn’t a “Morality vs fossil fuel companies” argument.

Best part was that SMS was specifically designed to use the current infrastructure at the time without inducing any real demand on it. It didn’t cost the companies much of anything to implement it.

I too advocate for checking your mates
