Children don't have freedom. Most don't get to transition.

Being a grown up means I get to choose my gender, so grownup automatically wins

The money spent to buy Teslas will go to the workers at a fair rate when the workers unionise. Until then, you're pretty much just paying Musk. You're not paying the workers.

I didn't say being an animal murderer is bad. If you think animal murder isn't okay then that's on you.

we eat meat because we can

Truly the greatest reason anyone has had to do anything.

and well, also should.

Because we evolved to do it? Are you saying we should do every single thing we evolved to do? Let me just go shit in the woods and die in childbirth then I guess

If modern society falls I'd like to see the vegans after about a year

Gee fucking whiz, maybe the morality of an action depends on context and the available choices. Maybe doing unpleasant things to survive in an apocalypse is actually completely reasonable. Or maybe, just maybe, killing someone to save your own life is still bad.

If killing animals for food is evil then all cats, lions, dogs, and generally all predators are evil.

Evil is a choice. The sun isn't evil for giving people skin cancer. Volcanoes and hurricanes aren't evil. And neither are nonsapient animals that can't just choose to eat meat. If you want to be treated as the equal of a cat then go shit in sand and live off mice. Or, use your big brain to actually do something good.

If you want to realistically improve the lives of farm animals, then go for laws on better treatment while they live.

Yeah, sure. Let's start with a few simple policies to help out the animals: no milking, no forced pregnancy, no genetic engineering to make them lay eggs every day, and no killing. That should help the animals out.

You said work is always helpful. What do you think always means?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Work isn't always helpful. If my partner got out of bed to clean the dishes or vacuum the floor at 3AM I'd be very cranky. Sometimes work is bad.

Thanks. Do you know the many worlds interpretation of the double slit experiment?

I watch TV while eating, because TV takes my mind off the textures of the food and helps me dissociate from eating. I also have a very active imagination and ability to immerse myself in a show

Enterprise seems to have characters beaten bloody, covered in soot, drenched in sweat or slime, or poisoned by trellium-D every other episode. It's very hard to watch Enterprise compared to the rest of Star Trek

 

Star Trek has its own Lemmy instance and I want to create an old trek community on it. But my account is on lemmy.world, so how do I do it?

I wake up and get dressed in one of the three outfits I own, which is locally crafted with enough quality to last a decade, and only washed when it needs to be
I have a breakfast of fruit from the trees outside and locally made bread
I pull out my phone, which is the only one I've ever owned and will last my whole life, and talk to my friends over a messaging app that works over a distributed network owned by the whole community
There's an alert that the hydro generator at the creek is broken, so I 3D print a part from open designs and go replace it. The old part is put in my plastic-composting bin, which uses genetically engineered bacteria to break down plastic
I hop on my bicycle and ride to the local train station. The tracks have moss between them and trees overhead. The trains are powered by a renewable power grid
I don't lock up my bike at the rack, because everyone already has a bicycle and there's no point in stealing them, they're free
So is the train
The city is dense, to reduce its land footprint, and made from sustainable materials. Housing is free
There are no cars, and the trees grow everywhere with sound dampening leaves, so it's pleasantly quiet
I have some tea at a restaurant, because coffee beans can't be grown locally. It's free
I breathe in clean air, and thank my pagan gods that I live in a sensible society

 

/c/twochromosomes explains its name with the following:

The name XX was chosen just because it illustrates the essence of this subreddit and its target Redditors–girly and geeky, and subtly awesome.

Connecting girliness with a genotype and bragging about being cisgender is not my idea of what the solarpunk movement stands for. This is gender essentialism and subtle transphobia. And the beginning of the community and of SLRPNK is the perfect time to be getting rid of transphobic names.

Admins, if you are reading this, please remove this transphobic community.

Everyone else, do you know how I can get in touch with the SLRPNK admins?
