Yep, and cooking is easier and safer (I don’t need to worry about cross contamination)

Being vegan is way cheaper and that’s not even accounting for the massive subsidies the meat and dairy industries get, from our taxes.

I was vegetarian when I worked there, very grateful as I probably would be dead of solid arteries after 3 weeks. I like that Ikea has vegan dogs, wish Costco had something similar.

Which post?

“I’m going to head to the bathroom.”

“Be careful! There might be bears.”

I’m having a difficult time reconciling that there’s no SP in The Meg. But I’m also not willing to watch the movie, so I’ll live with believing this information provided

At March 12th of this year, we’ll likely hit 366 days, an entire (leap) year of record breaking temperatures.

Less deadly and more contagious!

Have I got a movie for you to watch! https://m.imdb.com/title/tt2557478/

Unfortunately, I am allergic to morphine, wake me up when they can turn sugar into Dilaudid.

Or better yet, morphine into fully baked sugar cookies.

They’ll have to pay for the ammo themselves, of course.

Another millennial adding on:

5. Bringing a sentient life into a world of suffering and climate change that will only worsen seems malicious to that life, at this point.
6. My partner really doesn’t want to go through the body changes that come with pregnancy.

Additional emphasis on #3, even if it didn’t compromise safety, a healthy pregnancy is expensive! Healthcare from any complications is financially devastating.

Small aside that adoption is not off the table for us, but we’re not financially comfortable to get a dog yet, which we’ve been saving for for a few years. One of us would need to get a huge raise to be able to afford the costs of adoption and raising of a human child.

I’ve been really happy with open garage https://opensprinkler.com/product/opengarage/

Connects via wifi, easy to set up, and I haven’t touched it since. Doesn’t require cloud!

I was there with some others, we left around 3:00, before this happened. Shit is fucked, yo.

I volunteer!

Than it was.

Not just nostalgia tinted glasses, it really was better in the earlier years.

, the most difficult to search ebike brand.

Also humans are fishing a lot of their food…

Thanks for that! I also got an ebike this year, sub $1,000. Gets me to work and back, local grocery stores, and is fun! I’m voting to increase my city’s biking infrastructure.

Rep. Dawn Gillman, R-Dassel, shot to prominence when she raised over $500,000 for a nonprofit called Let Them Play MN, which sued Gov. Tim Walz twice in an effort to keep high school athletes on the field, court and rink during a pandemic shutdown.

Republican raised half a million for a dumb “non-profit.”

The nonprofit, however, has never filed IRS tax forms — known as 990s — and other required financial documents showing how it spent its donations. Let Them Play MN had its tax exempt status revoked by the IRS earlier this year for failing to file financial documents for three consecutive years. The federal government requires all tax exempt, nonprofit organizations to annually submit 990s and other filings for transparency and accountability, as they detail how nonprofits pay their employees and use donations to fulfill their stated mission. Without the documents, it’s unclear how Let Them Play MN spent its purported $500,000 in donations.

(bolding by me) So she got half a million, thought she’d just do her own thing, and didn’t realize it would catch up with her?

Supporters and city officials say Summit Avenue — both the roadway itself, and the infrastructure underneath — is long overdue to be torn up and replaced. That rebuild, officials say, presents a golden opportunity to remake the boulevard to be more inviting to pedestrians and bicyclists.

But critics fear the bike lanes installation would force the city to remove too many trees, jeopardizing the canopy along the route. An organized opposition campaign has even sprung up; “Save Our Street” has raised nearly $30,000 and enlisted an attorney to thwart the plan.

Critics are using “tree loss” as a cover for “we don’t like change and we’re worried our property value will decrease.”

We need more pedestrian and cycling infrastructure.
