I once had to live with a guy that would go through 2-4 gallons in a week on his own and just let the empty jugs build up in (around) the recycle bin for weeks on end. Grew up on a dairy farm. Honestly I shouldn't have to say more to tell you he was a freak.
I mean I've known that I'm lactose intolerant since I was 13 or something and I had to be be bribed to drink it before that so, yeah, it wasn't hard to stay away from drinking straight milk into adulthood.
Restaurants menus lacking milk as a drinking option is definitely a positive for me - I do not wish to dine alongside whatever freak chooses to drink milk with their meal.
Tbf I think the avocado toast outrage was over people paying inflated prices at a restaurant for something so easy and cheap to make at home, not the dish itself or any of its ingredients ever being a luxury.
Right, but they're not disapproving because he's doing too much genocide, they're disapproving because they think he isn't doing enough genocide. At least from the coverage I've seen on the ground in Israel of Israelis.
Right like that's kind of the entire point of these solidarity encampments; it's a statement that we should not be subjecting humans to those conditions
So when do we get to start calling these guys nazis? Cause I'm pretty sure that calling to send dissenters to camps, where a concentrated ethnic group is actively having genocide committed against them, is some nazi shit.
Yes! On the other side of this, as a cis woman, don't be afraid to teach her practical, hands-on skills that don't conform to whatever ideas you have about gender roles. My dad wasn't in my life much, though my grandfather was a fair bit. I was always jealous of the boys that were raised to have "shop" skills. I wanted to help with that kind of stuff but the adults just kind of shrugged me off, where I feel like if I was a boy I might have been invited or even volunteered to help. All the older men that have worked alongside me in shops act surprised when they see that I can hold my own around power tools. The only exception might be some of my robotics mentors.
I learned what I know mainly from a couple projects with my grandfather and some classes/clubs I took part in in high school, and while it's something that does just click for me, I got to engineering school and felt pretty alienated when the boys had way more practical knowledge about things like cars and computer networks. Their father figures didn't shy away from those topics with them and gave them solid foundations to build their skills upon.
Of course, you might not have those particular specialties yourself and she might grow up to be into different, traditionally "girly" things, but you won't be able to say it was for a lack of support or because you were reluctant to share that side of yourself/your interests with her. It's a whole level of connection that I think is too easily missed between people raised as girls and their father figures, while those raised as boys, yes, probably are more likely to miss out more on the emotional end of things. Both are important for a well-rounded human being.
I agree with you that its not about individual action, I was just saying your argument was kind of a non-sequitur. It was a hypothetical, so it's more like if exercise was already mandated and the argument was to take it away. In this metaphor you would be arguing in favor of the mandated exercise, just like you're arguing for fluoride, because you wouldn't get enough exercise without it.
Whatever, it's early, maybe I'm not making much sense. I wasn't trying to start anything. I'm more or less undecided on the whole fluoride thing.
America first is actually another slogan of theirs so you don't even have to go that far to draw the comparison
