It sure is convenient that the omnipotent and wise God decided to send his son to earth and perform wonders to prove he is the messenger of God long before humanity had advanced enough to create better records and spread that truth. I wonder why God has not wisely re-upped on this, given technological advancement, which God should be pretty caught up on.
That also wasn’t my point at all. I’m making no statement here about veganism. I’m saying 196 isn’t a vegan activism community and these bummer posts are obnoxious.
There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Well, difficult.
Yes, it’s not my responsibility to save that child from poverty. I would also be terrible at it. I would much rather financially support organizations than will assist in saving children from poverty in a more meaningful way, as well as supporting politicians that align with my values as far as lifting not just children, but everyone, out of poverty.
Similar to recycling, the impact is small. There must be large systemic change. My adoption of a vegan diet, or my diligent recycling of aluminum and plastic, is a drop in the bucket.
I have been seeing a lot of animal abuse posts on here lately. I hadn’t noticed 196 being like that in the past on here or Reddit. Is there a trend toward that for this community in general? I’m well aware of how fucked the industry is, but I also don’t sub to this community for that. I am here for little gay people shit posting in my phone. These just make me sad. I can’t personally do anything to stop this. I don’t want to unsub, and there’s not a great way to filter, unless it’s all the same OP? :(
Inaccurate, cat would have knocked them all over.
Yeah, but also fiber, I know some diabetics avoid beans but I don’t mind them in chili or whatnot.
I’m recently diagnosed diabetic so this shit just angers me on multiple levels. Good job, body. Now we have to limit carbs, and all the meat is cruel, guess I’ll live on fucking greens and cheese.
Lemmy has no sense of sarcastic humor unless you s-p-e-l-l it out. Then they bitch about that too, smh
I quit posting on Lemmy for the most part because of this. I just lurk now. It’s sad.
Go to your local library and ask if they have audiobook borrowing through Libby or a similar platform! Not only are you NOT limited on listening hours, but it’s free! You just might have to wait if all the “copies” are borrowed at the moment.
Also, if you have a cool library like I do, you might be able to borrow from multiple libraries. For example, my library card is for the St. Louis County Library, but it can also be used at the St. Charles County Library. So if I am looking for an audiobook on Libby, and SLCL has 3 virtual copies and they are all borrowed, I can search SCCL to see if they have any. I’ve had many situations where I’ll find one library or the other will have a copy available for borrowing with no wait.
You say: We aren’t trying for a baby, but we’re not avoiding it either.
I hear: I’m off my birth control and we’re raw-dogging like 5 times a day.
This year, I bought a Costco membership and ditched Prime. Fuck Amazon.
Right? Think about how fucking absurd this is. This whole “desecration” nonsense.
“I am going to say my special magic words at your special magic words building! Take that!”
“THIS OUTRAGE SHALL NOT STAND! ONLY MY SPECIAL MAGIC WORDS CAN BE SAID AT MY SPECIAL MAGIC WORDS BUILDING!”
And then they killed each other over special magic words. Invisible sky man is watching and doing nothing despite all the magical and very special words being said that he can definitely hear and cares about.
Fucking madness.
Remember that time you totaled your car? Facebook does!
Hmmm… The gays making everything hotter… This actually checks out.
I noticed the rather large venn diagram overlap as early as 2004, and it seems to have held true
I want to create a fitness channel for fat people so I can feed off their engagement to keep myself engaged in fitness so I can be not fat, but then I would be a skinny guy with a fitness channel and there’s lots of those 🤔
I appreciate your confidence.
