  • Gotcha. I was vegetarian for many years, so I get it. Cooking chicken actually smelled like heated roadkill to me, I had to leave the room.

    I felt healthier without eating meat, actually. Now that I am back to eating meat, I respect where it comes from and intend to use every part of my harvests (having a dog helps too). I believe I owe it to the animal to acknowledge where what is on my plate comes from and to be as humane as possible.





  • Sure! There are the cattle I mentioned in my post which are genetically distinct (if a bit inbred now after generations on the island), a story of a domestic cow escaping in Poland to live in the Bialowieza Forest among wild bison, the feral cattle in Australia which are descendants of domesticated herds, Chirikof island cattle in Alaska which live on only grass, etc. There may be some good videos online which also cover the topic. I do believe a lot of successful feral cattle likely come from beef lines, however. I don’t see dairy cattle being quite so successful considering how extremely we’ve bred them, but I could be wrong.

    I think it’s sad that things are so hard for folks who want to be great parents and raise amazing new human beings. It’s super shitty that anyone would be demonized for wanting to raise a family, especially considering they most likely aren’t the reason the world sucks and is too expensive most places. I agree the reason you see so much complaining about birth rates with no action is everything to do with folks wanting more meat for the grinder without budging on anything cost related to quality of life for said families. You see zero movement on trying to make it easier to have children, just complaining.



  • I had a very Christian coworker who already had a daughter and who was part of the maga pipeline. He didn’t hide his disappointment when he told me the gender of he and his wife’s next child had been revealed as another girl. Sent a shudder up my spine how he paused and said it in a sad tone, the way you would if you were a teenager expecting a Mustang for your birthday and instead having your parents roll up in a Saturn for you. What kind of world do we live in where folks are disappointed that their next kid will be female? It’s dumb society has been crafted this way, stupid af.





  • What are the best jobs for these types of people? Im a sales admin and just lost a boss who was amazing with letting us have freedom. Dreading the new boss’s setup already. I dont want to be an admin forever. Ive heard medical (EMS, nurse, radiography) and thinking like sales/marketing are good ideas. I like helping people in an environment where they arent already angry when they come to me lmao.
