Is Jesus in the room with you right now?

How will we ever know for sure if plants have their own form of consciousness that doesn’t follow a list of requirements that’s based on animals, or can feel pain.

Yeah, plants aren’t stationary. All plants move, just very, very slowly compared to animals. Looking at time lapse videos of vines growing, reaching out for something to grab on to and stuff is pretty neat. They kind of whip around in circles until they feel they’ve hit something worth grabbing onto.

Maybe tumbleweeds? I think…

Wait I thought you had 7 geese.

Are geese good animals to have?

Simplest answer is: if you are a vegan, do not own a cat. They are obligate carnivores. There is no healthy and humane way around the fact they need to process meat to be healthy. Don’t own a cat if you are vegan and don’t want to feed your pet other animals. If you don’t want to rehome your cat, you will need to live with the fact that you will need to sacrifice another living mammal in order to feed your pet.

Owning a pet while vegan is already kind of hypocritical…

When my step dad died, it was a difficult process trying to legally sell his hand guns. You can’t buy guns from Walmart here either. That’s so strange that you can where you’re from.

Ban both

It’s a game show. The contestants are all competing for a prize. Why is the term game show so offensive to you haha

I understand where you’re coming from and it’s refreshing seeing someone have the empathy you do for people suffering with NPD. Having any type of mental illness though isn’t an excuse or good enough reason to treat people the way he does, or to damage or harm others like a lot of NPDs do. It’s unfortunate their mental illness can screw up and damage the lives of so many other people around them. I find it difficult to sympathize with them.

I haven’t had a FB account in years, but a friend has been on it for nearly 2 decades. They said there’s no longer any posts from people on their Friends lists, it’s become nearly all ads/spam as they scroll.

What is enby?

it was not

I am currently ttc and they made me get tested to see how my antibodies were for measles, mumps and rubella (and some other diseases we were vaccinated against in childhood). My rubella antibodies were pretty much non existent now. It can wear off over the decades. Was told I should get the MMR booster before becoming pregnant. So I guess maybe its not a bad idea for us adults to get our antibodies tested, or maybe go ahead and get the booster if its available in your country or area if you are in your thirties or older. Especially since a bunch of parents are no longer vaccinating their children, the herd immunity isn’t protecting those who either were unable to get vaccinated or the antibodies from infection/vaccination have worn off. My stepfather completely lost his hearing in his right ear because he got measles as a boy (before the vaccine was created). So even ignoring the horrible painful rash you get, it can also make you deaf, blind, or kill you. A lot of us have forgotten how damaging these diseases can be, we’ve been spoiled by our vaccine protection. Even if you got your MMR shots as an infant it does wear off and you will no longer be protected by herd immunity.

edit: i wrote father in law instead of stepfather

I read it all. Why do the emojis offend you so much? They’re just tiny pictures.

A venti 591ml caffe latte from Starbucks is about 8.08$cdn before tax or tip. I don’t go to Starbuck much anymore.
