There are ten livestock animals in captivity for every one human. You’re still lucky to be born a human anywhere on earth, because we are the monsters.

Like If I link peer-reviewed articles on this stuff, you’d call me an incel & a misogynist
It might not be the articles’ fault.

So basically you paid money to store someone else’s oven. How long before we are installing vending machines in our kitchens instead of fridge and stove.

- Comment on Do people still sculpt? Any sculptors here on Lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
It’s so much fun!! You have to retopologize scuplts if you want to do anything more than static renders, which is a whole different skill, but if all you want is something you can print or render, I think that real world sculpting skills would transfer very well.
- Comment on Do people still sculpt? Any sculptors here on Lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
I discovered I could sculpt a couple years ago, which was revolutionary for me because I’ve been trying to draw my entire life but disabilities have always made it extremely difficult. But I can just sculpt without really even thinking about it! Form is so much easier to grasp (no pun intended) than image.
I love working with Blender’s sculpting tools, which is where I discovered sculpting. Digital sculpture has a LOT going for it and I haven’t done a lot with physical media, but the stuff I’ve done has been fun and not hampered by my disabilities either.

Do you imagine that the majority of money people make of video production worldwide is from YouTube revenue? Or even a significant portion of it?

because yt is the best platform
…for very specific definitions of “best”.
- Comment on Well THAT fucking sucks! 🤬 3 weeks ago:
If YouTube shut down, PeerTube becomes viable. As do a galaxy of other solutions. YouTube is sucking all the oxygen out of the room. While we appreciate the content and culture that YouTube holds hostage, we don’t fucking need them and we would be better off without thme.

- Comment on Tough news for protesting farmers: Labour doesn’t actually need their votes 4 weeks ago:
I don’t think you need propaganda. I think it’s baked into people from birth to feel fear, disgust, etc. I think it’s easy to misattribute those feelings as having an external source, blaming them on the poor, and allowing that to shape their opinions and values. It’s surprising to me that we don’t even have a word for “hatred of the poor” because I think it’s pan-cultural, regardless of whether politicians or the wealthy exploit it or not.
- Comment on Tough news for protesting farmers: Labour doesn’t actually need their votes 4 weeks ago:
Merely ignoring the poor would only be so bad (we’re used to doing without) but politicians around the world win votes by exploiting irrational hatred of the poor and actively making things worse.
- Comment on Not disparaging the dead or anything. But why does it seem in the US we are expected to feel sorry for a person who overdoses on illegal drugs? Didn't they make the choice knowing the outcome? 4 weeks ago:
Okay, that’s not really compassion. People don’t need to deserve or earn compassion.

You’re asking why you are “expected” to have human empathy? I can’t answer that, but I can tell you that you are personally better off accepting and processing other people’s emotions and experiences, than you are refusing to do so. It is not only our own feelings that we can refuse to process.

- Comment on I have been told ever since I was a little shit that when you die you go to heaven first wait in line for St Peter to judge you at the pearly gates? Is this in the Bible? I thought god did judging 5 weeks ago:
That’s very interesting. I’ve never heard about that. I’ll take a dig sometime soon. An example of dogma changing to suit practical needs. Would be good to know the conditions that are necessary for that to happen.
