Yeah, I’ve long since stopped using Google. Theres not any search engines I’ve found that mimic Google in its height, but many of them are better than what Google is now. Even bing.

If you read it, the mod certainly didn’t beg. They just mentioned that they’re still blocking bots and to not be discouraged from posting original content.

Also I find it highly doubtful that the mods of that subreddit are concerned about shareholders. Why would a mod care about money when they’re not even getting paid? They most likely just care about keeping the community alive.

Not to take away the point. Which I think is something most Lemmy users have realized ages ago, reddit is so full of repost bots that it makes gallowboob look like a saint. So much in fact that after two days, not a single original post has occurred in a subreddit with a reported 17 million followers.

I like meat, and if it’s not for morality then what other reason is there?

I was on Lexapro and I have ADHD as well. All it did for me was made me tired for the first week. And then nothing.

I see the disconnect. Most people would use the physics definition of sound, you’re using the physiologic definition. So yes you’re right, however no you’re wrong.

“Next” refers to the occurrence that follows the current. “This” means the occurrence that is present. I’m regards to days, it usually follows a week to week basis, Monday through Saturday.

If its Friday and I say “this Saturday” it’s referring to the Saturday in the current week. Tomorrow. “Next Saturday” would be 8 days later.

Sound isn’t dependent on whether someone hears it, but instead IF someone could hear it. IF a person was around, you would hear it. A sound wave doesn’t come into being just because you happened to be around. It’ll exist regardless if you are capable of hearing it or not.

Thats a bit of a glass heart take. I, personally, don’t think animals should suffer before they’re slaughtered. They should live happy lives up until then. But we’re predators just like any other carnivore.

The only difference is that we have stronger emotions and the ability to consider the consequences of our actions as well as empathy for other beings.

But if you like meat, you’re not being a baby. If anything it’s the opposite. You care less about the animals than the meat it comes from. And I don’t think that’s wrong. That’s just evolution.

We’re such strong predators, that the majority of humans will never even kill their prey. We cage animals and slaughter them to feed our masses. And as long as we do that ethically (which we’re not. I’ll admit that), I don’t think it’s a bad thing, it’s nature.

You wouldn’t deny a lion it’s prey, so why berate fellow humans for the same thing? Instead the focus should be on ethical and sustainable ranching and farming.

I really don’t like that level of responsibility. Probably just put the country under anarchic rule, and head back home.

Discworld work make an incredible series of movies. I think D&D Honor Amongst Theives proves that modern comedy fantasies can work great in a movie format.

My other choice would be House of the Scorpion.

Edit: never mind, I realized they’re a troll. Comment deleted

He didnt threaten her with murder. He wrote a song expressing his emotions. He exaggerated how he felt to the fullest extent.

I once told my dog that I wanted to eat her cause of how cute she is. I’m afraid to tell you that cause you just might think I run around eating pets just because I think they’re cute.

Because it’s more nuance than that?

It’s not to be taken at face value. This song is about a man who struggles with addiction. He’s stuck in a relationship with a nasty person all for the sake of his daughter. He’s rapping with raw emotions.

You not supposed to listen to it and be like “ah fuck yeah. Murder is cool”. You’re supposed to listen to it and feel the same emotions he feels, which is vehement rage and desperation.

This is essentially the point I was trying to make across, but worded better.

North America*. Besides that, people often group Canadians and Americans together quite often. The two countries are very similar culturally. I have seen it become more and more common to say North Americans when talking about things culturally. When it comes to politics or the specific country itself, of course it makes sense to separate them.

People may think he’s crazy, but part of psychedelics is hypersensitivity. I doubt he could actually see in the dark and smell landmines, but his brain probably recognized very small details and fabricated hallucinations based on what little he did pick up on.

“American cheese isn’t even cheese”. I mean ‘american cheese’ is very processed. But go to Wisconsin and tell me we don’t have good cheese.

There’s plenty of good quality stuff in America. We just can’t fucking afford it.

The US has built its empire on convenience. There’s plenty of solid brands out there, but the biggest and well known are the companies that cut corners and quantity so they can keep prices low. And us US citizens just eat that shit up.

Amish style butter is some of the best butter I’ve ever had. You can find it all over the place in the Midwest and Amish heavy states.

If you don’t use YouTube, you’re also screwing over the content creators you enjoy. You can cause harm to a company in many ways. Stop using a site prevents them from making money off of you. Preventing them from actively making money off of you while you’re still using the site actively takes money away from them. It is double sided sword because you’re also not actively supporting that content creator. However, if they don’t have another platform to post on, you can instead buy merch, donate, or simply help the algorithm boost their content by watching their content.

I don’t disagree with you. YouTube should no longer be a viable business. Something else should step in and rival them. But since that doesn’t look like it’s going to happen, I’ll be happy running adblocks, and letting them not recoup their server and operation costs from me.
