"The homeless industry"?

Okay, so you're just stringing together big words to try and sound smarter than you are, because "precursor of spirituality and religion" is a nonsense phrase.

I didn't ask for the dictionary definition, I asked what you meant by using it in the context you used it.

[–] november@lemmy.vg 3 points 2 days ago (5 children)

What do you even mean by "precursor"?

[–] november@lemmy.vg 6 points 2 days ago

Please tell us which names are "not British names".

you expect them to

No, we're quite used to humans being pieces of shit.

something they're eating

Animals aren't "things".

Good point. People should only advocate for dgoogling on platforms full of people who have already degoogled. It's stupid to try and reach people still using Youtube.

It may not be carbrain so much as shitty car-centric infrastructure.

Guy's an ass, but if this gets people on board with degoogling then good for him.

Depends how busy the federated timeline is on your instance. Often it's just a firehose of bots.

Someone criticising something in 2025 doesn't mean they just figured it out in 2025.

My wife is a cannibal but she’s open to trying non-human-based meals. My daughter eats a cannibal diet. We haven’t forced anything on her. On the one hand I feel responsible for teaching her and making her non-cannibal but on the other I feel like as a parent I’m only here to inform and let them make their own decisions no matter how much it pains me.

My parents didn’t push anything on me and I ended up choosing not to be a cannibal on my own, but grew up for 30 years eating human flesh.

I feel like I shouldn’t force anything on my kids. However for me, this is a topic that I feel is black and white, so it seems easy to say this is the right choice, do it. Though I know many people feel strongly about religion or other topics being black and white and that it’s the right thing to do, though I’d argue otherwise so perhaps it all really is just subjective? And some would argue pushing things onto your kids might actually push them further away.

What do you all think?

I would have asked this on a math community but I couldn't find an active one.

In a spherical geometry, great circles are "straight lines". As such, a triangle can have two or even three right angles to it.

But what if you go the long way around the back of the sphere? Is that still a triangle?

(Edit:) I guess it's a triangle! Fair enough; I can't think of what else you would call it. Thanks, everyone.

 

My eyes were bigger than my stomach... At least I'll have leftovers.

Have you ever heard someone describe their cat as "magical"? They weren't being hyperbolic.

You see, cats are obligate carnivores. This is a kind of animal whose metabolism runs on magic. Their digestive systems use clairvoyance to determine whether the meal they're eating came from another animal. Nutrients have nothing to do with it -- if you try to feed them lab-synthesized taurine, the ancient curse laid upon their kind by the Egyptian sorcerers who bound them all those millennia ago will lay waste to all mankind.

Bet you feel stupid now, huh? Checkmate, vegoons.
