Only if you use a — instead of --, if they know what they’re talking about anyway.

My phone autocorrects them to — so that’s fun, lol.

Same on the wanting more of it faster front! One look at the detail on each panel shows why it takes so long, but it’s absolutely something I could sit and devour in one sitting.

Free range, pasture raised… would probably be a lot better if he didn’t use electronics ;p

You definitely should! Fair warning, it’s a no dialog movie, if that’s not up your alley.

Watch Robot Dreams and try to no re-experience it every time you hear this song challenge (IMPOSSIBLE!!)

Is nobody going to acknowledge that, if real, this man’s farts must smell like the sulfurous bowels of hell itself?

Doing neither while hinting that other people should do the work sure is revealing of the problem, though.

Then people haven’t cut back. The production has to go somewhere, they aren’t making money shoveling it off a cliff.

You can’t get meat from a cow twice, you can get milk lots of times.

I already told you I’m not digging around in that waste dump and told you how to find it on your own (search for Greenwald’s @, not his name). Assuming it hasn’t been shame deleted.

If you’re going to refuse to believe this thing I watched happen in real time and have talked about with multiple people actually happened unless I find you the links myself, then there’s nothing else to say here. I didn’t hang out in leftist spaces and argue with libs on the fediverse for 2+ years to lead up to a secret anti-Zei campaign, they just piss me off every time I see them because of their shitty past behavior to trans people.

If a single critical post is proof they hate GG, why isn’t a post thanking him and blocking a ton of trans people evidence to the contrary?

As for what else I would want, what I and all the blocked trans people pretty explicitly wanted was just an acknowledgement that he was transphobic. But that’s too big an ask apparently.

Not eating red meat is so fucking easy now. If I can be an old man who went to school uphill in the snow both ways for a second, I dropped meat 20ish years ago in the US deep south, and holy fuck talk about an impossible diet. Even the vegetables had meat in them, and that is not a joke.

This is obviously going to depend on your area and how much of a food desert you’re in, but I’ve never seen so much access to so many kinds of meat replacements in average grocery stores and not just bougie upscale places. Tofu, tempeh, fake meat everything! Which isn’t even a big part of my diet, but I love having the option when I want something new.

 

Anyone else read this? It’s an ongoing comic (<200 pages currently) set in the moderately distant future, post (multiple) alien contact, people living in space, genetic mods are common, that sort of thing. The protagonist is an alien centaur that was fostered by humans and has never lived around her own species, and it follows her and her friends’ encounters with a ship’s AI pilot of questionable origin trying to get help repairing itself.

I’ve been following the artist for a while as they developed this, first on Twitter before it went bad and later on Bluesky (they’re also on Mastodon). They’ve been doing a lot of fun speculative biology and world building for it, and I’m also really into the art style and character design.

If you’re interested in the world building aspect of it (I think it’s really neat!) you can check out the worldbuilding directory they put together, with info about each species, planets, etc.

 
 
 
 

When we got to the top of the cemetery, we stopped there and they took off their vests because that's where they have the camera," he said. "Then they pulled me out of the car and kicked me."

Reyes says that after repeatedly asking them to check his wallet, one of the officers finally did so. They realized he did, in fact, have his green card, but questioned whether it was real.

"'I don't know, maybe it's fake' … The other guy says, 'No, it's real' … That's when they finally stopped," he said. "They were planning to keep hitting me because they didn't have good intentions. They took me to a cemetery."

Even so, the threats continued.

"Do you think you're a big shot just because you have a green card? I'll make sure they revoke that green card of yours," Reyes said, recalling what agents told him. "'I'm going to do everything I can to get this paper revoked,' an immigration officer told me."
