  • I don’t want to have kids simply because I’m miserable and never consented to being born. I am not suicidal but I would have rather not been born in the first place.
    Most people grow up happier than me, so I can’t really make a philosophical argument out of my own experience. All the best to you and your family!







  • I’m just going to drop this here.

    Transportation is such a small factor in food production is pretty much negligible. Meat always loses vs plants regarding climate impact.

    Fine, but because we cannot agree to call things with its proper name ?

    Yes, that’s all I’m saying. Bacon is Bacon, vegan bacon is vegan bacon.

    True, so I suppose that I can come up with some kind of “beyond cabbage” made from animal products and call it cabbage, right ? After all people just need to do is read the label…

    If your meat cabbage abomination is labeled correctly and not sold in the vegetable section of the supermarket, sure, go for it. I doubt it would be a successful product, but go for it.


  • I don’t understand why you seem to be so angry about it. I won’t buy “real” bacon because it’s terrible for both climate and pigs.
    Nobody is mislabeling food. Vegan bacon is the perfect term for a vegan bacon substitute and nobody ever bought something labeled “vegan bacon” and was then disappointed that it didn’t contain meat. It’s not like manufacturers try to deceive people. The stuff is clearly labeled as vegan and it’s usually even sold from a different shelf.




  • I would like to buy something called bacon because I like bacon? You can like meat and still be vegan. Most vegans are vegan because of animal cruelty and climate impact, not because they hate meat. I can only speak for my country, but here such products are all on the same shelf and are clearly labeled as vegetarian/vegan. It makes sense to call it vegan bacon or vegan steak because it clearly imitates the meat product and I don’t want to have to decipher what it’s supposed to be first.


  • With a quick Google search I can also find out why the earth is in fact a flat triangle. You need to use your critical thinking skills and evaluate sources.

    There are states without hard limits, but it is not “legal to kill a 9 month old baby”.

    1. Late term abortions are really rare and only performed if there is no chance of survival for the fetus while the mother is at risk.

    2. If these horrible conditions are met, doctors will find out well before the 9th month, often before the 3rd trimester.




  • Fairphone 3 still has the headphone jack, it was removed with Fairphone 4. Still worth it because you can swap out any component with a single screw driver within minutes and you get years of updates. Also while not perfect, they make an effort to source their materials as ethically as possible and pay the factory workers a living wage.





  • They released tons of free content updates over the years. For me, it got stale pretty quickly because you needed increasingly huge piles of in-game money to participate in any of the new content and that means either grinding for hours or buying fake money with real money.
    The single player and the world building were top notch though and it still doesn’t feel like an old game after 10 years. It’s crazy to think GTA 5 is now older than San Andreas was when 5 was released.
