Thank you for the comment. I heavily resonate with the last part. I don’t come to vegan communities online to be bombarded with non-vegans making the same terrible arguments, I have enough of that in real life. Leaving Lemmy seems like a more attractive option.
I’ve been trying to give away some accounts for some time now with no success. Not sure if there’s some kind of account-give-away scam that went around or something but they are my accounts I haven’t used in years. Just hoping someone gets some fun out of them....
A game I’ve been playing recently is Bread & Fred. It has put the pure fun factor back in games for me. No competitiveness, no completionist motivation, just pure fun.
Echt kut dit. Ik doe altijd mijn best om me een beetje in te leven in mensen, ook als ik het met ze oneens bent. Maar dit is gewoon een dikke middelvinger van een deel van NL naar de rest van NL. Stel kleuters die alleen maar lekker ‘nee’ willen schreeuwen de hele dag en anderen de schuld geven. En o wee als je racistisch...
Als er een positief ding uit de verkiezing is gekomen, is het wel dat deze Lemmy thread goed leeft en mij iets beter heeft laten voelen over de situatie. Bedankt allemaal!
I’ve been greatly enjoying leagues so far! My choices were Harvest - Fairy - Fire sale - Mage - Farmers - Berserker and last not yet unlocked, but I havent had any regrets yet. This feels like a sign that the options are decently well balanced this time around and that there are no wrong choices (walkers?)....
Endless harvest, fairy, fire sale, magic. We’re pretty much opposites! I will be afking during work, and since I’m not taking trickster the value of fire sale goes up tremendously.
Sssh, je mag niet zeggen dat mensen hun persoonlijke keuzes ook bijdragen aan meer of minder klimaatverandering. Dat past niet bij het idee dat we boos moeten zijn op bedrijven (ook al kun je prima beide).
Een ontzettend belangrijk onderwerp! Er moeten duidelijke manieren komen om van voorwaardelijk sepot te gaan naar onanfhankelijke rechter bij bezwaar, met het hele proces wat hierbij hoort.
Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I’m definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!
The more I think about it, it seems that long-term happiness is something many people spend their lives seeking OR they believe it’s something they used to have and lost....
Mastodon, an alternative social network to Twitter, has a serious problem with child sexual abuse material according to researchers from Stanford University.

OP unironically linked an article referring to a 50k donation in 2004 to a physics department to show that the Stanford Cyber Policy center somehow is not out for wellbeing of kids? Imagine being this delusional.
I respect the self-reflection in this comment. Sadly, I also feel a small need to ask you to think about ethics and morality slightly deeper. Imagine if your predecessors made similar comments about [insert moral failing of history]. How would you think about that?
I think most of us try to be good people, but it’s really hard to do the right thing if you never think about what is right and why (and yes, sometimes that includes not being lazy).
Rereading the chain I see misread the original comments, my bad.
Lazy and self-aware enough to know that there is not much i can or will do to improve the morality of meat consumption.
You can stop eating meat? That seems to be a fix that puts you squarely into better moral territory. Unless you think the killing, torturous treatment and rape is moral. It’s your choice whether you want to do something, but it I object to the word can here.
In general, just having conscience as a guiding ethical compass leaves you open to many logical inconsistencies. Would you agree?
In my experience getting reasonably priced shoes is at least 50% getting the right discounts. In the US, Saucony seems to do ridiculous discounts all the time. For EU I've had issues finding cheaper Sauconies, but MisterRunning usually has a lot of reasonable discounts. I haven't ran in the Ride 15s (although I tried them on), so I can't comment on shoes which may be similar in feel.
Does anyone here have experience comparing the times of the Garmin race predictor for different events? I know that usually it slightly overestimates me or that I haven't been able to run the time yet, but I'm curious how the estimations compare for different distances....
Tone cops always come out of the woodwork to disparage vegans who ask carnists not to hurt animals, no matter how nicely they ask. But they'd never speak up on behalf of animals, bc they benefit from being the "good vegan" and are beloved by human supremacists for enforcing the status quo. Fighting for animal liberation is...
This is entirely subjective, I have placed some classics down lower because they just haven't clicked with me :/ as well as a few down in shitty purely out of spite or a bad personal experience...
No it's the vegans who's wrong
