Yeah, I was going to say, we have gulags here...

My parrot will grab the top of his own head sometimes

Hell yes! Always good to see more people working in this space!

Haha it was nothing like that, they just sort of came out of nowhere. My city is normally pretty safe, I've literally never had another encounter like that in my life.

I'm a vegan, and fuck those people.

I've got a medical condition that meant I had to take it fairly slowly just it be sure my body wasn't going to literally fall apart when I went vegan, luckily I'm doing well (in a few ways I'm actually much better off now, though I'm still scared of falling apart). Medical conditions are valid as hell for not going vegan, I wasn't aware of how an eating disorder could prevent it but I've read a fair bit online now, so thankyou for sharing.

One of the scariest moments of my life was when my friends and I were publically assaulted by a pair of very large vegan men who didn't like that we weren't vegan. I was vego at the time but sure as hell wasn't going to tell them, people who act like that are an absolute disgrace and make me ashamed to be vegan. Veganism to me comes from a deep sense of empathy, if you can't feel empathy for other people then you're not a vegan as far as I'm concerned.

I think carnist is a useful word that a lot of people get caught up on. As you say it's not a pejorative, just a word that describes someone who chooses to eat meat as opposed to carnivore which is a creature that can only eat meat. All humans are omnivores, but not all are carnists.

Anarchy also says you have the right of free association, so yes that is allowed. The point is that you shouldn't force people to be part of it, that they can leave at any time and that your freedom to live how you want shouldn't come at the cost of the freedom of others.

I appreciate you saying this! I didn't want to type up anything specific myself because it was pretty late and I didn't have the energy to check any claims.

I'll add to my other reply that pointing out that the TST has a history of co-opting issues and covering up abuse is a recognition of reality, and that dismissing criticism is exactly the problem with organised religion.

Yes, that was a mistake and I have edited my comment. I am talking here about the temple

That's who I'm talking about, I'll edit my comment

Alright, not really my point but thanks?

Probably as good a time as any to point out the satanic temple actually sucks: https://youtu.be/3lV8GLQtOTs?si=H-8Obibrpz31jDri

Just let the fascists take over and we won't kill you during the revolution

Fuck this illegal government, Albo is a fucking coward and a hypocrite.

Shame

The notes on the strings are the same as the lowest four on a guitar, but upside down/in the opposite order

Working my way towards folk punk, and a bit of regular folk here and there

Sure does, I basically don't bother with the other modes because the meow is so damn good

Thankyou! I adore it, it's probably my most beautiful instrument, though to be fair my keyboard is really giving it a run for it's money

I'm a guitarist too! The upside down thing is crazy, but I'm not having too much trouble adapting to it. I'm really loving that there are tons of viable barre shapes, working out melody is going to be nuts though lol
