Sorry wait what are the cops doing with the bodies?

This lot is impossible to reason with, but I applaud your effort.

Those cats already exist, you dipshit. Adopt, don't buy. Spay/neuter. Let them have an enjoyable life and move the fuck on.

I don't understand people like you. Can you not accept that there are shades of gray, and exceptions to every rule? I'm simply arguing that not all cats MUST be kept indoors no ifs ands or buts. I concede that many cats, young ones in particular, will kill small animals. My (rescue) cat was an indoor cat for most of his 15 years and only when I moved from a major urban city apartment building to a slightly less-urban city single family house did I let him outside under controlled circumstances. I straight up know he isn't going around killing things. I didn't go out and BUY this cat, I'm not actively contributing to breeding or anything. I have an animal that deserves to enjoy his old age.

I should probably not engage with you people and just keep my truth to myself.

I have cameras, and I work from home. He literally does not leave a fenced-in rectangle. I know for a fact he doesn't kill anything.

Yeah I always found the argument absurd as I live on a paved over rectangle with a few square feet of grass my cat likes to poop on while he hangs out with the local squirrels. He is far too lazy to hunt anything, he killed a mouse that was actually inside the house many many years ago but has been a pacifist since. He is 15 he literally wants to sit in the sun and do nothing.

Of course there are some cats who will hunt, and their owners should not allow that. But the blanket statements about environmental impacts, while they cool their house with AC, burn fossil fuels to heat food and go to work, order crap on Amazon...just lacks perspective.

Wicked Game In My Ass

Yes. That's the very definition of a protection racket.

Did Germany make him persona non grata or something? Or is there a standing arrest on sight order for Nazis in general

I think I know where he got his name now

It's the people who love to talk about strict types that tend to be the problem

Whoosh

He won't, at least one person in his administration knows that's a fast track to civil war. We didn't love those leaders dearly, but we recognize that they did their duty more or less honorably and patriotically. They are much more useful to Trump as scapegoats than martyrs.

We are judged by actions, not words.

I have the right "space bar" on this board mapped to Right Shift, plus a lot of the characters usually accessed with shift, like the symbols above the numbers, are actually on different layers.

Do it! To tell the truth though I'm having trouble getting comfortable typing on it, still feels awkward to me. Had a thought that it would be cool to use as a super macro pad in addition to my main keeb, and I could hand-paint some keycaps for it.

I may be wrong and lack any historical knowledge on the subject, but I think author is sarcastically self-identifying as a tankie?

Author is one step away from the realization that Capitalism is the culprit, and technology is just the vector.

The further you look in the sky, the further back in time you are looking as well -- there is no way to see what far way looks like "right now". This image shows the visible universe as it appears from our perspective in spacetime, which necessarily smears together the "where", "what", and "when" of it all, but also shows the evolution through time of some of the larger structures.

The tendril things that converge into single celestial objects are clouds of gas condensing to form galaxies and clusters over billions of years.
