Just a reminder, if you care about reducing lives lost a diet that includes meat responsibility in the right proportions will result in significantly less lives lost than eating a salad.
Compared to mountain-raised beef eating beef will result in significantly FEWER lives lost than a salad. One salad probably cost quite a few insects and mice their lives to make. A mountain-raised cow is wild grazed, so the land isnt suitable for crops, and no animals other than the cow dies. So one cow makes 3000 meals, thats a much better deal than the multiple deaths per plate you expect from a salad.
@freemo Sonewhere in the SubGenius literature is a reference to "the vampire Jesus who shed his blood for you and now WANTS IT BACK!"

Yes, as you know, I'm into history 🙂
Throughout 20thC, equality was increasing right up until the 1970's, when Powell, Rockefeller, Huntington, etc supervised Carter's run & installed most of the Trilateral Commission into his cabinet.
70 years of gains in equality reversed from there. Buying the msm was essential to the oligarchs' campaign to destroy democracy itself, including civil-rights, labour, anti-war, & education movements.

#Ozempic / #Semiglutide is a bit of an odd expiernce for me. I figure this is how normal people feel now... very alien compared to my normal relationship with hunger and cravings.

Incoming!
Recent sunspot activity predicted to impact on 26/1/2024.

NB this is a rolling past/future window; this event will have cleared from view in a few days; anyway it's fun to keep an eye on if you're fond of solar activity).
#QOTO sometime in the next few days we will begin the process to finally execute the first stage of update. The first step will be to migrate servers, that will be the big one and may result in as much as a day of downtime.
After that we will do the first upgrade, this will mostly just update some security stuff, no major changes. Once that succeeds we will start adding the other updates on top one by one.
This will be a rough one but I assure you we will be back up on the other side and will mean a more steady stream of updates and new features in the future.
@mjambon Thats why I created the poll. I had a theory that each side would have exactly the same ratio of people who thought their candidate would win... and I was right :)
@freemo it's funny that on either side, two-thirds think their favorite will win.
Still the funniest anti-woke and anti-racist skit I've seen.
