- Comment on I just want juice, is that so much to ask? 16 hours ago:
Disagree, I was able to find the local grocery store’s store branded 100% fruit juice in cranberry, apple, grape, and pomegranate. It’s just a regular grocery store too.
They even had the welch’s 100% juice varieties.
Now that being said I had to pay real close attention to the labels to select the right juice, but the good stuff is still out there

I’d say the majority of the population can do that, mostly it’s a class filter. Need money to go to school or massive debt.

“Well technically” is not a convincing or relevant arguement. Bugs are animals too. They don’t get human rights

If I recall that was just electronics no?
Like we’ve seen them use fire at hogwarts. Simple chemical reactions still occur. That’s all a gun is, a spark, gunpowder, and a tube. Frankly this is just potions class

You are right it is a newer adaptation, but one that was clearly advantageous to our species. There are not many evolutionary changes that occurred independently in 3-5 different populations.

So according to you slaves are animals, neat
- Comment on "Being vegan is unnatural" 1 week ago:
Yes scavenging for meat is generally considered a very important part of human evolution. Our stomachs are particularly acidic when compared to other great apes. This is believed to have evolved due to a high consumption of scavenged meats.
You are right though plants generally did form a large portion of our and our ancestors diets.
Important to note that as our brain size increased it did correlate with increased meat consumption as well. This all goes into calorie densities, available nutrients, and evolutionary pressures.

Humans evolved to proccess dairy, not once, not twice, but 3 times. Some studies even suggest up to 5 times.
Seems like it was definitely advantageous to consume dairy
- Comment on "Being vegan is unnatural" 1 week ago:
There’s no evidence to support that. Best evidence is that our ancestors for the longest time were likely opportunistic omnivores. Plants of course were a large part of the diet, but looking back to about 3.9 mya meat was on the menu.

Wow, comparing actual human slavery to cattle production. That’s certainly a take

I have thoughts that I hear, but I can’t picture images in my mind. Like I know what a dog looks like, but I can’t see it

That sounds more like a mental illness and not an inner monolog.
Like my inner monolog are just my thoughts…

So do hunting licenses in the US. Wildlife enforcement has some of the most authority in the state.
The issue is the states allow inherently unsafe munitions to be used. If they changed hunters in the US would comply

What are you even talking about? There a plenty of people that hunt even here in Germany

Why would that be assumed? Yes flying across space is a level of technology we can’t comprehend, but unless these beings have truly become gods, technology breaks. Something can always go wrong.

I’ve never met an American English speaker that says today is 2026 March 3rd. They would say today is March 3rd 2026. If the year is included at all, usually it isn’t and is understood.
- Comment on Anon goes to Japan 2 weeks ago:
You are right we do still say 4th of July, but usually we tend to just prefer a different format when talking about everyday things. I’m going to visit on July 15th, I have a appointment May 12th, etc. This is much more natural in American English. Saying the “12th of May” just sounds overly formal. Which is fine for a holiday, but not everyday speech.
So I guess the question is when did this shift between American and British English occur in relation to the creation of are dating formats.
- Comment on Anon goes to Japan 2 weeks ago:
It makes sense with spoken English. You say March 3rd not 3rd March.
I get the increased efficiency of ddmmyy in a number based format, but it’s not hard to see how it evolved the other way from the language

I once called Nintendo as a kid when my DS hinge broke for no reason. I had it for under a year and there was info about a warranty. They told me that they had already fixed that defect and they would not cover it.
- Comment on Is she saying that eating ass is bourgeois decadence? 2 weeks ago:
I’d really like to see a rework of terms that separates the corporate conglomerates from say the local pizza place. Yes both make money from the labor of others, but the average person has way more in common with a local buisness owner than Bezos.
I personally thinks this is something people get caught up on. A small buisness owner could be less well off than say an electrical engineer.
Truthfully I don’t know how this is navigated by modern theory.
