At this point they're quadrupuling down. Not our first rodeo, brochacho

With these grifters it's probably a problem of the ones who are true believers are too stupid to be competent and the ones who are competent know it's all for the money and will negotiate accordingly and are only in it for the cash grab.

Who knows what mix Pool had working for him

Economists have written the same article for years.

This is like that Onion school shooting article that just changes the location except they count how many years it's been since Reagan

It's the journalistic version of junk food.

That said, I can't imagine he smells good. It makes the thought of Laura Loomer blowing him that much grosser

My cat is indoor outdoor and presumably gets his share of mice as well as a mix of kibble, canned and human scraps. He's not once gravitated to pea protein with taurine additive or whatever weird shit y'all are forcing on what is in effect a carnivore who can't articulate their wants to you.

I was vegetarian for more than a decade, vegan for a chunk of it. I felt awful the entire time but stuck with it because I was trying to do what I thought was right. Thing is, I had a choice. Cats can't tell you they're listless and feel bloated all the time (the way I was during my veggie phase) which has led to full on celiac for me these days

I legit cannot think of a more on the nose allegory for "missing the first for the trees" than forcing your carnivore pet to be vegetarian. Get a guinea pig or something

So what would the cats choose in the wild?

It's frankly kinda fucked and cruel to force your beliefs on an animal who has no choice in the matter. I hope you don't actually own cats

Offer to drive them to vote

I always forget how good we have it in Oregon. I'll go through the pamphlet and read up on all the ballot initiatives while filling out my ballot in the comfort of my home at my own pace. Then I'll drop it in the mail or at a drop box somewhere the next day

Nah. She knew what she married. Big Melania energy

Before we figured out tools and became apex predators we were prey animals... we're SUPPOSED to be nervous and scared because that's what kept us alive. Some people have speculated that this is why in aggregate humans are prone to being spiteful, destructive, bored, and shitty

I could be a racist piece of shit and drop the n word. If a black person then turns around and calls all white people racist pieces of shit, we're both bigots

Except... 2 people being assholes when the power dynamic is still very stilted is NOT a level playing field. Context matters. You're not some enlightened sigma with this hot take.

Suffer a few generations of systemic oppression and you might get the parity you think you have

 

Happy Friday, everyone!
