I don't disagree with trying to absorb other things that wasn't what was intended sorry if it came off that way.

I think I a piece piece of evidence is that the right wing news orgs are still talking about it after they were told to stop. Their own audiences turned against them enough that they have to keep talking about it. I forget who said it but one said that they trust the people in the white house to take care of it and his own comments dragged him for it.

There are also some people I know personally that have genuinely been shook by this.

There are only so many pennies. I don't think I have more to give

No. Well kinda.

The Ford class uses what is basically a rail gun to launch planes but big navy decided against continuing development on railguns as a weapon.

You should go to a doctor if you haven't already.

This is just not true. When my wife's family moved to my home state they all though that the water tasted "sweet". Good tasting water definitely exists.

If you have the money for it a water bottle with a filter (even just the carbon Brita ones) improve the taste immensely. I use an Epic water filter for everything and it makes nearly all water taste good*.

  • The only exception I had was the Atlanta airport I have no clue what the fuck was going on their but the water was disgusting.

Also worth noting: don't use a filtered water bottle for filtering water that has contaimints you are actually worried about consuming; none except for grayl actually match their claimed results with third party testing.

If they started genociding white people it would be though. History is not a zero sum game where it's OK for the natives to do to white people what they did to the natives. You can't exactly repatriate people that were born and raised somewhere to a country / continent that they have no ties to besides distant ancestors. I'm not saying land back is inherently genocidal but what actually is a way to go about it that doesn't involve an ethnic cleansing?

Screen protectors need to be changed way more often than a good case and they are usually similar is prices so this makes sense to me.

Does anyone read bottom to top? I don't think I've ever heard of a language like that.

Im not trying to come across as snarky I'm genuinely asking because that seems to be the main problem with this one.

EDIT: From what I can find there are in fact a few languages written bottom up but they are not common at all and it looks like there are less than 100000 current speakers even if you added them all together.

I didn't called vegans religious I said they argued like religious people. Thank you for making that point for me actually.

Its easy to focus on more than one thing but it is impossible to care about everything at once, last time I tried to do that I simply stopped caring about anything for 4 years.

Where's the stat for 15-20% for animal emissions? I'm seeing ≈10% for all agricultural and about ≈60% of that from animals.

I don't really get the waste of calories as a point against eating meat? I don't think that we have to be perfectly efficient with all of the things that we use and on top of that the problems with hunger that we experience are unrelated to the total amount of calories we have available and rather the distribution of them.

Yes vegans only use it descriptively and it is never used in a way to imply in short hand that they are bad people. Never. I watched the vegan sub on reddit for over a year so you might want to try that on someone who hasn't seen the way that some vegans talk about people who eat/use animal products. Some people use veganism as a weapon against other people to feel superior I'm not saying it's you but its a thing that you should be aware actually does exist in your camp like I'm aware that there are people that seem to think eating meat makes them a big strong manly man.

Its more because they argue like religious people than someone genuinely trying to convince me. I genuinely do kinda agree that if you want to be as moral as possible you should be vegan. But to be entirely honest I just don't care about animal suffering that much when there are so many issues that affect people and my morality is basically completely human centric.

And inventing what is effectively used as a slur against omnivores really does diminish the idea that they are simply "doing the right thing". I am not saying that the term carnist is a slur for clarification just that in some vegan communities it is used in the same way that one would be used.
