Why? This kind of humor isn't new and it's never about "finding a baby to hand off to somebody". The implication is always suggestively sexual. Don't delude yourself into giving him the benefit of the doubt here. This was clearly meant to be a dog whistle to his manosphere followers.

To be fair, it's one of the more reasonable superstitions considering the potential of being hit by a heavy falling object.

For me it's more about not subjecting a person to my own residual trauma and a society that's accelerating towards self-annihilation

For how much he lies, why the fuck would he say this? Why draw the line here and not just say he does like he did before? Genuinely baffled by this one.

I knew this day would come but nonetheless I was not prepared for it...

Stickers put on products by manufacturers or retailers must either be on the product packaging or be made with the material that leaves no residue behind when peeled off.

Some people just want to watch the world scratch its head in bewilderment.

You seem to assume I'm arguing in favor of vegan cats.

Whether or not a cat can thrive on a vegan diet is irrelevant to me as I don't own a cat nor do I advise people on how to feed their cats. However, I do have a bias (as we all do) that tells me there is likely more nuance (which you did allude to in your original reply) than the general absolutist sentiment against the idea.

That bias is informed by half-a-lifetime of experience maintaining a loosely plant-based diet myself and witnessing first-hand the fierce compulsion people have to push their uneducated opinions at the mere mention of a plant-based diet. In my experience, there are few other things that can so reliably stir people into a vitriolic frenzy than the suggestion of a plant-based diet.

And to back up that bias, I now have my first negative comment after almost a year on Lemmy :⁠-⁠)

 

My summer squash has taken off over the last several weeks and overtaken the neighboring carrots. So I hadn't checked in on them in a while. Found a few good ones this morning!
