So there's this new anti-vegan argument (at least it's new to me) that's especially obnoxious because the people bringing it up seem to be maliciously ignorant. It's "vegans are hypocrites because animals still die because of them." It's one step further from "if we can't prevent all harm why should we even try?" because it's "if you can prevent all harm you shouldn't even try."
Arguing with these people in good faith is impossible because I'm convinced it's just rage bait. My conspiracy theory is they're paid actors because I can't imagine how anyone could bring up such defeatist mental gymnastics and actually believe that.
If they'd actually believe that I'd wonder why they're still alive. If we can't prevent all the bad things in the world why should we even live?

It was the same thing in Germany. Elon wanted to build a factory "in" Berlin. Of course there was no space there. So they built it in the surrounding area of Brandenburg. The locals protested and there was even a legal issue because they wanted to build the factory in a water preservation area. But the state and province ignored all of that and authorised the building of the factory anyway.
I can't say I can't empathize with them at all since Brandenburg isn't exactly full of industry and job opportunities, but man there had to be a better way than some doofus shitting on water preservation and workers rights.
Residents of Adelaide voted overwhelmingly to reject plans for a Tesla factory and the city of Marion has had to censor their submissions lmao.
Nearly every [Redacted] is almost definitely 'Cunt'

I get that we all hate Elon Musk and rightfully so. But making stuff up to dunk on the Cybertruck is super unnecessary. That thing is a death trap regardless. The dots have no function other than aesthetics. There's a protective paint on top of the seal and often that looks like shit. So to make it look better they put some sort of gradient there.
Sometimes those dots have a function - hen they're behind the rearview mirror, so the background doesn't blind you.

Have you ever looked closely at a car windshield?
The edge of the glass is painted where it is glued to the car but it has these small dots between the clear and painted glass.
These are there for a reason. When the sun hits the glass the painted areas and the clear areas will absorb heat at different rates. This causes the glass to expand and contract differently putting stress on the glass.
These dots help the glass to warm up more evenly over a larger area so the glass does not suffer stress that could cause it to spontaneously explode.
Fun fact: the Tesla cybertruck doesn’t have these.
Yes, the glass will spontaneously crack or explode in the sun.

Ich war nicht dabei, aber ich gehe davon aus, dass der Aufschrei ähnlich war, als Helmut Kohl in Halle mit Eiern beworfen wurde. Jahre später wird die Aktion gefeiert oder zumindest Verständnis geäußert.
Gebt dem Rasierschaum ein paar Jahre und er wird eine ähnliche Anerkennung kriegen.
"Es mag Leute geben, die den Tortenangriff auf Christian Lindner auch noch witzig finden-" Ja Frau Frontal-Moderatorin das tue ich tatsächlich, weil eine Rasierschaumtorte ins Gesicht des Ex-Finanzministers ausgehend von einer fellow Politikerin vielleicht ein ganz kleines Bisschen was anderes ist als Lokalpolitiker auf offener Straße zu attackieren und aufs Äußerste zu verprügeln, aber das ist nur meine unprofessionelle Einschätzung als linksgrünversiffte Tumblr-Userin

hey honest question, did anybody have GOOD stuff happen to them in 2024? cause it was really bad for me and for most people i know, so it would be nice to hear about anything that's been going WELL for any of you. even if it's small stuff. just to know there's light out there.
#four of my best friends got married#i reconnected with an old friend and we're still hanging out#my husband got a raise (although the raise could have been bigger)#we got solar panels for our balcony

Besides. It's not a person that got a new identity. It's a website that went through an unnecessary and detrimental rebranding just because some rich knobhead could.
Just came back from my parents. They're on twitter now. Unrelated: They're planning to vote far right now.

Ayoo just to preempt the inevitable dumb takes we’re about to start seeing;
I am PRO-WOOL
I am PRO-LEATHER
I am PRO-BEES
Fuck the idea of replacing durable, sustainable animal products with cheap, flimsy plastic that doesn’t bio-degrade. Agave nectar and other artificial sweeteners are expensive, labor-intensive, and destroy the environment to be farmed.
Do not buy into pernicious marketing campaigns pushed by dickhead organizations trying to stay relevant, like PETA.

if you have the Honey browser extension installed, uninstall it immediately. big big story broke on youtube today strongly indicating that Honey has been massively defrauding basically everyone who does any business with them at every level, including influencers, customers, and actual retailers.
the short version of ONE of the alleged crimes is that they've been hijacking referral links and codes. if you have honey installed on your browser at all, and you use any referral code from anyone, there is a high probability honey will swap out the referral link identifier for their own even if they don't provide a coupon at checkout.
they also are just lying to you, and hiding coupons that very much exist. they're completely fraudulent
paypal bought honey in 2019 for 4 billion, so paypal has been strip mining the influencer economy for 5 years now. the amount of money that's been essentially stolen is unfathomable

As if it wasn't enough that Russia is doing everything in their power to destabilise Europe. Makes me even sadder that we lost you guys.
Elon Musk needs to go play on some train tracks. That asshole is trying to get his grimy hands into the German elections next.
He's had too much influence in German politics already (looking at you Brandenburg). I don't want him to buy votes for the AfD. Actually I don't want him to talk or even think about any elections anywhere ever (again). Motherfucker needs to Starship without damaging our atmosphere.
