Uncritical support for this post.

If you can't butcher your own meat, you're using the disconnect of letting someone else handle that trauma for you to allow yourself to be complicit in the murder of a being.

Kill it and cut it yourself, or don't fucking eat it.

Once upon a time I wanted to start a coffee shop/bookstore back when I lived in Texas. Looked into the laws around starting business and it turns out that to own and operate a business in Texas you must swear fealty to Israel.

Fuck that

Dualshock 4 is great.

If you're not gonna use it often and want a cheaper one, the Logitech F710 (wireless version of the f310) is great, just don't use it for your submarines

Something something something... All publicity is good publicity

Is the hentai on all a new thing? I've been using all since I signed up 3 months ago and today is literally the first time I've ever seen it, all from the instance reddthat

There's a lot of adjectives, and a couple nouns being used as adjectives, which did make it a bit hard to read to me🤷‍♀️. Personally I'd have used a semicolon instead of a comma as well, but that's splitting hairs.

Confusing though? No absolutely not, just a bit of a task to parse.

Once upon a time I was scared of the friend zone until I realized that's such a shitty thing to be afraid of. Like, oh no, you're such good friends with someone they're not willing to potentially damage your relationship with one another by pushing it further. The friend zone is a good thing. Enjoy platonic love, share that love and relish in it.

You're not even joking.

Back in the early 2010's my engineering team in HS built an electric Hummer, looks basically the same as a cyber truck but with more diamond plate.

I'm having a bad time!

I'm single for the first time in my adult life after 8 years with the same person, so I'm using this time to try and vetter myself and get control over my vices now that I've got the freedom to introspect at my pace.

I've mostly quit smoking weed, and significantly cut back on cigarettes, and I've increased my drinking now that I've realized that I don't actually have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol and was just afraid of it because of my parents being alcoholics.

I'm in a new city with no friends, no family, and no support system, so it's been really rough, but I'm determined to come out of this shit clean on the other side.

Thank you for asking, I've been looking for a place to vent a little

Forced Snaps is a big one. If you're not familiar, Snap is Canonical's proprietary alternative to Appimage and Flatpak. While the Snap Store is open source and can be forked or modified as needed, the backend is completely closed source, which has vexed many members of the Open Source community.

While the distribution itself is currently pretty solid, they've made questionable decisions in the past like including an amazon search function in their fork of gnome (Unity). Snap can be removed by a skilled user or someone well versed in search-fu, but their choice to have it installed by default, the be the default for package management, and to inject snaps in place of deb packages when installed via Apt, are all big red-flags given that nobody can see what is in those snaps til they're installed except for canonical.
