Yes, but how will I become a furry in tech otherwise

I live in an apartment building on the ground floor, I always tape a sign to my decorated window to inform people where to ring for trick or treating. It works quite well for me, and groups know immediately who is willing to give out candy

You’re saying that and yet the farmers market closes at 12pm. That shit is my fun, and yet I’m too sleepy to appreciate it

I think a big difference is how seeing it happen in real life is much more impactful than on a video.

I grew up around butchering animals, and even got to visit a nearby family-owned slaughterhouse on occasion, for me slaughtering and butchering animals is something that I’m much more aware of due to these experiences, I’ve even been taught how to slaughter animals, and though I would never advocate to have everyone who wishes to eat meat slaughter an animal themselves, I think it’s absolutely important to see the process in person and not just on video.

Something that happens a lot in my experience is that specific animal parts are considered “gross”, entrails and such are usually the most common parts considered as such. That’s probably the easiest way to figure out if someone is aware of what butchering means or not, no, considering them gross is not directly a problem, but going all “eek” and stuff is a great way of telling me that the other person is ignorant of the meat industry.

There is very much a problem with a lot of people simply refusing to accept what butchering actually entails.

There was a public experiment done by a reputable German science magazine where they asked a farmer to set up a stand for freshly butchered geese at a nearby city’s outdoor market. The catch was that the geese were still alive and they’d be killed and butchered at the location. So many people reacted with outrage, and in the end only one goose got slaughtered, because the buyers themselves were more than aware of the butchering process. The rest of the geese were rescued by an animal rights advocate who bought them all to be kept at a rescue farm.

Here’s the video, obviously fully in German, but you can see pedestrian reactions: https://youtu.be/9AXt-6mAVEo

My biggest gripe with vegan communities is that a lot of them have an “All or Nothing” mentality, going fully vegan is a luxury not everyone can afford, and yet I find mainly malice when trying to talk about reducing ones own reliance on meat and other animal products in online communities.

And veganism, if taken to the “no suffering of sentient beings” full extreme, forbids buying things (not just food) produced by slavery. And those things, especially electronics and clothes, are not financially viable for most to be bought without any slavery involved in any step whatsoever.

Small boys are the best, you can use them as an arm rest, and if need be they can be picked and held up to give you a tactical advantage for spotting potential predatory species ❤️

The average tansport van is about 18ft long. And the standard U.S. parking space is also 18ft long, this means the average van will still slightly stick out no matter what, but by no means as much as a 22ft beast on wheels.

There are also older model vans, which are more common, only reaching 16ft in length, so those will be able to properly park in standard parking spots.

Damn, probably

No???

Yeah

We have game theory as an a elective at my uni, the amount of people who signed up for game theory instead of game design is staggering

Damn, I turned old when I grabbed some coloring pages off the ground to give them back to a child and got called the “nice fat lady” afterwards by the child. Double whammy

Dude, my driving instructor charged less than a Taxi and that guy was charging in the triple digits per hour, it is insane as to how Taxis are still in business. Who the hell pays those prices?
