It doesn't matter. Racist uncle is going to die early from a heart attack and those kids are going to be the people in charge when you're needing to be cared for- invest in them.

Humans learn behavior through trial and error and learning from others. Maybe this will be a valuable experience regarding how they come to choose their opinions and how they choose to express them, maybe not. Who knows? We'll keep doing our part to let others know when certain opinions are intolerable or unrealistic and they can use that information as they will, if they want. Being allowed to express something doesn't mean they are correct nor immune to criticism 🤷‍♀️

Isn't he talking about people talking about him in the cut verse? Referring to himself? He's not calling anyone a bundle of sticks, he's repeating what he's been called

It will probably just get your humidifier sticky and gross

Is that a pigeon missing everything but bones on one side??

Ope, suddenly I remembered I love driving the speed limit.

I mean, if it's a difference between light in my eyes while driving and not, I'll choose the latter 🤷‍♀️

Maybe they needed to shit, saw the proximity of the toilet to the bedroom area, and decided not to stink bomb poor anon

It sounds like you've been the victim of the misinformation campaign designed to make it seem like everyone who isn't you is your enemy and that all people who hold certain beliefs are a certain way, when the reality is far from this

Good, perhaps the boomers will recognize how impossible the current structure is to live under and actually pay attention to what they are voting for...

Who am I kidding, that's not going to happen 😭

I know what you mean here, but it's a bit egotistical of humans to be like "we literally know what this creature who can't talk" is thinking when they can barely properly guess what their long term partner or friend is always thinking 🤣 cats MIGHT be more simplistic in thought patterns than humans, but to assert what all cats believe based on an incorrect reporting on John Bradshaw's studies of cats is just plain wrong- please do a quick search! You'll see there are conflicting reports of what his book seems to claim, but he himself does not assert that that's what cats literally believe. 😬

Edit to add: here's the article where he's being interviewed about it, and the relevant part!

"I've read articles where you've said cats think of us as big, stupid cats. Is that accurate?

No. In the book [I say] that cats behave toward us in a way that's indistinguishable from [how] they would act toward other cats. They do think we're clumsy: Not many cats trip over people, but we trip over cats.

But I don't think they think of us as being dumb and stupid, since cats don't rub on another cat that's inferior to them."
