Cris

Ahhh, yeah that’s fair, I was thinking domestically

Take care :)

We even have real alternatives. Mastodon and bluesky are both right there, just go make an account and post a link for folks.

I’m curious what you’d have liked that wasn’t included? We got cost of living issues, social issues like protections for queer folks, health of our democratic institutions kinda stuff, the climate crisis; I feel like she mentioned pretty much all the stuff I really care about

(Making conversation, not challenging your perspective :)

Looks like a really compelling list of policy stances, thanks for posting

😮‍💨

You put cured meat in your bits, didn’t you?

Wish there was a man inside me 😔

This guy pees.

Did we even read the same article…? It doesn’t seem to ever mention a glock, I don’t know what business you’re saying deserved to go out of business, and the whole article is about firearm storage, not the design of integrated firearm safties…

I didn’t realize there was a wholesome greentext community here on Lemmy, thanks! :)

I probably will at some point, it’s a shame though cause every once in a while something really fun or charming comes out of the greentext communities or reddit or lemmy. I don’t meant to condemn folks for their choice or preferences, just express that I can’t relate to them

Hope you have a good one :)

It’s on the front page pretty often, as it seems like one of the larger communities

I’ll probably end up blocking it as the other reply mentioned, but I don’t usually like doing that. It’s also a bummer cause occasionally something really lovely gets produced by 4chan, you just have to wade through a lot of bleakness before you find it, it would seem

I don’t mean to disparage others their choice or preferences, just expressing I don’t really understand them

Hope you have a good one :)

That would make sense

Hope you have a lovely day :)

Its not a strawman, that would imply no one was actually advocating for feeding cats a vegan diet, and this post was made up to pretend they did in order to disparage vegans. This post is a reference to someone on Lemmy arguing in favor of vegan diets for cats, and the thread you linked is literally people advocating for and discussing vegan diets for cats.

That being said, if you read the comments you’ll see vegan folks arguing that this is a difficult thing to safely do in practice, and needs oversight and direction from a vet.

Making decisions to feed your pets, who can’t advocate for themselves, things other than what they biologically evolved process as a healthy diet, even if you believe you’ve balanced everything just right, is morally questionable.

Making such a decision about your own diet on moral grounds is an admirable sacrifice and difficult lifestyle change one can be proud of. Choosing to make that sacrifice on behalf of a creature you’re responsible for the health and happiness of is needlessly jeopardizing the wellbeing of that creature. They can’t communicate their needs, and you’re the one responsible for them. Don’t go making questionable choices on their behalf that they’d be powerless to do anything about.

Yeah, I understand that it’s a subversion of what’s expected, it’s just also depressing

“The joke is that you thought it was just a weird interaction with strangers, but he’s actually being shitty father and abusive husband!” doesn’t really work for me 🤷🏻 I get why it’s funny to other people, I just can’t really relate, and so much of 4chan humor has that same shared thread of being an asshole, life being a bleak existence, or making up a strawman to attack a particular population. It’s just kinda depressing to me :/

Huh, weird. I’m on mull, which is a fork of Firefox moblie. It’s weird that it’s different for various people

A fictional story about a husband/father being cruel to his family until they leave doesn’t exactly seem like fun entertainment to me 😅

4chan’s idea of a joke tends to involve some kind of suffering or cruelty, I don’t really get the appeal. It shows up on my feed and I can’t help but think “someone wants to read this sort of thing…?”

At least the one about the lady pissing herself and jumping in a canal or whatever was kinda silly and just a story about doing something dumb

Thank god

Makes me really proud of my home state, really feilding our best 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

Cant say I understand. Doesn’t really seem healthy to soak in that kinda cesspool, but everyone’s gotta live their own life and make their own decisions I suppose

4chan is depressing
