Something I've learned as a vegan is that it's pretty socially acceptable to kick vegans (and I guess vegetarians?) even among leftists. To the point where it's almost a meme in some vegan social media circles I used to frequent.

I don't expect shit from anyone. That said, when I'm at one I'm still going to ask if there are options, because why wouldn't I?

Try iNaturalist, it works pretty well. Also, learn plant morphology, makes it easier to narrow things down when you get a couple suggestions within the same genus or family.

Socialism!!! 🤮🤮🤮🤯🤯🤯🤢🤢😷🤒

Think of the shareholders!!!

Yeah early-mid summer is about the worst time to plant. I've put plants in the ground during the summer but I'm out there watering them nearly every day when it's this hot, at least for the first few weeks.

"But they drop leaves in the yard and that's messy!"

Ok?

"And then I have to rake the leaves up!!"

Why?

"Because that's what you're supposed to do!"

Why?

Or at least don't waste it all drinking... I spent so much of my early 20s drinking and playing video games with my friends. While I made some great memories, it was excessive and I could have done a lot more with my time.

Probably not a popular view here but I've found my hobbies more fulfilling since I started doing stuff other than gaming. Native plant/food gardening, reading books, working out... all of this stuff can be affected by capitalism too of course but I'm less beholden to it. I still game a bit now and then but much less than I used to.

I honestly don't get why so many people are so reckless and impatient on the roads.

Driving provides you anonymity and a getaway vehicle. It also anonymzes other people on the road, which I think kinda gives people like, main character syndrome?

AI-generated articles, books, coloring books for example, are all a thing now. Behind the Bastards did a podcast episode on the latter two.

They can join the gut flora party!! 🎉
