That’s honestly so adorable.

I know how dangerous bears can be but it’s hard not to look at that photo and not be in awe at how cute they look all hanging out on the tree together. Just hope their presence in the area didn’t cause any major safety issues for too long.

Look dude, Imma be blunt, but this take has got to be one of the dumbest takes I think I’ve ever seen regarding politics.

You really think there wouldn’t be any consequences at all for just culling 100 million people off the face of the Earth? That’s more than every single death in World War II.

Russia and the world is lucky to not have you as the leader of China because frankly your username matches the quality of the take.

To give a direct answer, familiarity honestly. While I would want to move towards even having poultry less, it’s just a thing of acquainting myself with recipes and whatnot and finding ones that work for me.

Attempted making bean burgers for example, and they turned out becoming more like sloppy joes, so trying to get things to work out without having to make them each day ha. Trying to challenge myself to use a binding ingredient that isn’t eggs. I got flax seeds since it was recommended before in a convo, but kinda lost on how to properly use them as a binder.

Also idk how much it helps, but being lactose intolerant has greatly reduced the amount of dairy I have, so I tend to go with products based on plant-based alternatives with the only exception being cheese the few times I have it since the texture and mouth feel of vegan cheese just doesn’t match what I’m comfortable with.

Yeah, aware of the fact that meat tends to be a big issue with carbon emissions and environmental sustainability. While I’m not *currently* planning on being vegan, I’m definitely cutting out beef and pork and replacing them with chicken and fish for the time being for both diet and environmental reasons.

Overall trying to reduce the amount of meat I eat regardless, and I’m glad that’s been an easy change so far.

In a really weird way this might actually be helpful to the campaign. When RFK dropped out of the race, both Kamala and Trump saw a boost in the polls, meaning there are people that supported RFK that were more Democratic leaning than Republican leaning, though it should be noted Trump went up only a few points more than Kamala did.

JD Vance has been the most unpopular VP pick in modern American history. While RFK is of course weird, I personally wouldn’t be surprised if he’s seen in a more favourable light than Vance is. The swap could potentially win some of RFK’s supporters who moved their support to Kamala over to Trump and the Republicans, and could give the opportunity for “unity” messaging considering Trump would be bringing in a former opponent as well as the Democratic association with the Kennedy name.

Will say though, not sure how effective this would be compared to the Trump campaign simply swapping Vance with someone else that was on the original running for VP pick. Still shocked knowing that Burgum was going to be picked before Trump was swayed to choose Vance, and that Tim Scott wasn’t his go-to considering Scott’s potential for Republicans playing identity politics and his talent in campaign fundraising.

Having a hard time understanding the downvotes on this one. Definitely not a popular opinion by a longshot.

Honestly fantastic choice. The more he talks over people and interrupts, the more unhinged and unsensible he appears to the average voter. Political commentator I watch regularly has been saying this for months to leave his mic on at the debate rather than mute him.

Yeah, no, completely personal use. Not anything I’d be posting or publishing anywhere.

Still want something that specifically generates stories from images.

Funny seeing this around now.

Was looking into trying to find an AI to make stories from images, since I have to deal with the unfortunate reality that for a fandom I like, just about all the fanfic is unbelievably badly written to the point that an AI does a better job making interesting stories. I know they exist, just a question of where the ones that work are.

Simple ask you’d think wanting to find shit that generates stories from images. Search engines hardly helped, so it was like, fine, I’ll ask an AI about AI. Surely it’ll help me find the tool I need, right?

Somehow the results it gave me were worse than the search engine itself.

Standing by it. Prefer it over fresh n hot.

Gotta say, as someone who identifies as a progressive, she’s really been beating my expectations compared to what she was saying and doing back in the 2020 primaries.

Not trying to rage-bait, being genuine when I say it’s the exact opposite for me.

Like, I can see why people like Queen, don’t get me wrong, but honestly it’s just been the case that their music has been so overplayed. I know Bohemian Rhapsody is a low blow, but I personally get that same vibe with the rest of their music library.

On the other hand, I’ve heard from a lot of people that they find Crazy Frog annoying, and I still personally don’t “get it” as to why they feel that way.

Don’t forget to delete your Twitter account folks. Nothing of value there that you can’t get elsewhere.

Who could have ever seen this coming?

Okay but seriously, it’s not like the IDF hasn’t been dehumanizing Palestinian lives for as long as we can remember. They were literally purposely shooting the legs of peaceful protestors during The Great March of Return in 2018 let alone the shit that’s happened since October 7th.

Not denying this, but can I see a source for that? This is the first time I’ve heard of this as someone in Canada and would like to learn more, though can’t say this surprises me unfortunately.
