The US makes cheese? Like other than that vaguely cheddar flavour goo they press into slices? TIL.

What is the implication here?

Cheese is the meaning of life.

I’d rather ally with kiwi on pizza people than work with pineapple on pizza haters.

That text could need some contrast.

but what is it worth if there’s no one to share it with?

You can pay people for that.

No need to go overseas, almost all countries with birthright citizenship are in the Americas.

Ok Tankie.

Wanting to leave NATO, withholding weapons from Ukraine and talking to Putin isn’t exactly “working against” fascism. That’s very much the Neville Chamberlain approach … but even he came to his sense after the full scale invasion started. Can’t say the same for die Linke.

What are the odds of this happening at a public parking place?

They are actually pretty good. Also I think some of the black ones might be blue.

Well, at leasts the quality drop is consistent with most sequels.

More and more? It was always the case.

Your analogy basically boils down to Descartes’ hypothesis about “animal machines”.

There is a legitimate debate to be had about about the spectrum of consciousness/awareness and where it apparently stops. Most people would agree that mammals and birds are on it. I’ve seen the need for a central nervous system seen pop up a lot, but there is also octopuses, which are highly intelligent without having one. You can even find something that I can only describe as “intelligence” and a decent level of awarness in spiders, best example being the genus Portia. So where does the spectrum really end?

Some plants are capable of some impressive actions, like beansprouts systematically moving and “searching” for stuff to grab on, a lot of plants use pheremonal communications to warn each others of predators … there is good stuff here. So are the just totally off the spectrum of awareness and purley operating on a mechanical level, like a phone? I’m not sure.

The point is, we don’t really know what consciousness is. And while this video is quite dated, I’m not aware of a better take (though it doesn’t really do much in practice).

That makes sense.

My point was soley about Gorillas not having a purley vegan diet.

Yes, I’ve read my source. What it says is that Gorillas are NOT purley vegan (which was your statement) while not contradicting anything I said.

Even grazing herbivours, (cows, buffaloes) will occational eat small vertabrets. So not being considered “carnivores in the wild” doesn’t really mean anyhing. You don’t need to be carnivore (or even an omnivore) to not have a “purley vegan” diet.

Which of course makes sense, because animals are opportunistic, not idealistic.

If all of humanity started to “occasionally consume tiny vertebrates and insects” while “primarily consuming plants” by tomorrow, which we could, we’d be way better off. Do you agree?

I certainly wouldn’t, but that wasn’t really the point.

Please fact check before posting

That’s literally here to fact check you, but ok.

however, also have an appetite for termites and ants, and break open termite nests to eat the larvae.

That’s not quite “a bug or two”.

the gorilla population investigated (for which very little observational data are as yet available) may occasionally consume small vertebrates.

They occasionally consume tiny vertebrates and insects as well.

Next time, check yourself.

Well, the first bullshit here is the word “purely”. While they indeed have a mainly vegan diet, they also opportunistically consume insects and even small mammals.

Great, now I have to replace all my beef with veal.

Modern humans are around 300.000 years old … we’ve only been farming for 10.000 years. Doesn’t quite add up.
