My cat is indoor outdoor and presumably gets his share of mice as well as a mix of kibble, canned and human scraps. He’s not once gravitated to pea protein with taurine additive or whatever weird shit y’all are forcing on what is in effect a carnivore who can’t articulate their wants to you.

I was vegetarian for more than a decade, vegan for a chunk of it. I felt awful the entire time but stuck with it because I was trying to do what I thought was right. Thing is, I had a choice. Cats can’t tell you they’re listless and feel bloated all the time (the way I was during my veggie phase) which has led to full on celiac for me these days

I legit cannot think of a more on the nose allegory for “missing the first for the trees” than forcing your carnivore pet to be vegetarian. Get a guinea pig or something

So what would the cats choose in the wild?

It’s frankly kinda fucked and cruel to force your beliefs on an animal who has no choice in the matter. I hope you don’t actually own cats

Yeah, they’re fine for what they are, but I’ll take that over shitting myself inside out by eating wheat

Domino’s hates selling smalls

Yet that’s the only size they sell their gluten free pies in. I rarely buy from there (my kid considers it a treat) but I hate paying $15 for plain 10" gf pizza that’s mid at best

Kinda shitty that Dominos has it set up so that tip is calculated on top of the delivery and service fees. Tipping on the value of food, I understand. Tipping on the cost of those other fees is double dipping and bad faith in my opinion.

Seriously, “y’all charged me a service fee to deliver my food? Cool! Let me tip you for that!”

Having done time in the service industry, I have no problem tipping where it’s warranted, but you’re tipping the Dominos corporation for their fuckery at that point, not the driver

A lot of this shit is affected by what you eat. If I eat a lot of sugar and gluten it definitely affects my skin and dandruff 2-3 days later.

Besides what a lot of people said, try to stick to foods that don’t cause inflammation or reactions.

The Last Seduction

Drove through there (Boring) an hour ago. It’s a cute place

There is a 100% chance this warning correlates with the actual content on this site being hot garbage

A friend of mine bought a house for $40k under market because a murder suicide happened there the year before.

He said, “that sucks, but it’s not like I knew them or anything”

Great quote, but this isn’t really a children’s movie

Strap in. It’s an election year

Bought mine in 2017. Mine is double. It makes zero sense

I used it for a bit. It was nice sending and receiving images from iPhone using friends that didn’t look like blown up 50x50 thumbnails of jpeg artifacting

I’m pretty left/lean socialist. The tankies that annoy me from those instances are pro authoritarian communists who say shit like “Stalin did nothing wrong” with no irony whatsoever. It’s not really about bickering over ideological purity past a certain point, some of that shit makes a good case for the horseshoe theory

I worked for a few labels back in the day. Bands could make money depending on if they’re discerning with who they signed with. Some indie labels split profits down the middle after costs are recouped

Problem is each and every revenue stream is a fraction of what it used to be

Daniel Ek (Spotify CEO) is 3x richer than Paul McCartney. If that doesn’t bun you out enough, he uses his fortune to invest in sketchy AI for military applications., plus you know… Joe Rogan and all that shit

Fuck that guy in the face

Nah. My band’s releases that I have the rights to are not on Spotify on purpose. I’m not going to give you free use of my art so you can pay myself and my bandmates almost enough to get a sandwich every quarter.

Fuck right off with that insulting shit.

I worked at labels for years… that’s not the way it works

If an artist is enough of a dummy to blow their entire advance unwisely quitting their job, spend months in the studio, and get an elaborate tour bus: the label will pay for it but those expenditures are weighed against your royalties. Scummy labels exist, sure, but often the artist went on a spending spree with what anointed to a loan the label was paying them.

Spotify also pays absolute garbage and fucks bands harder than most labels were ever able to

My favorite is that a a celiac, all the gluten free stuff is 20% more expensive. Because you know, rice and tapioca are such expensive, exotic ingredients
