look up “make GIMP feel like Photoshop” or something similar. iirc it’s a quick install that rearranges GIMP to be much more intuitive for people who came up on adobe.

if they say they’re christian, they are

feeling stressed? go harm animals for fun.

we have no right to the bodies or bodily excretions of other individuals. being vegan has never been easier and it’s past time to align your morals with your lifestyle.

“if flying is faster than driving, why hasn’t everyone gotten their pilot’s license?”

so getting impeached is a bad thing?

the corporations will not save us. be very wary of any “solution” that allows you to continue unchanged and to shift all responsibility to someone else, there’s a reason that perspective is so pervasive

I had to switch from resolve when I moved over to Linux. I’ve had luck with kden live, hope that helps

so distressing. it’s like the brain rewires smiling as a stress response; like some kind of Orwell torture sequence

it’s odd that they used “holiday present” in the headline, but the article says-

One source told CNN the AR-15-style rifle was purchased at a local gun store as a Christmas present.

it’s like they didn’t want christmas in the same headline as the mass shooting or something?

this is rad

hell yea, flax eggs are dope

obviously yes, did you not know that? they also sear their beaks off with hot metal to keep them from pecking each other in their horrifically cramped conditions, the egg industry is insanely cruel.

someone pointing out the obvious isn’t a ‘gotcha’ and it says a lot that you think it is

there are literal entire countries (including Canada off the top of my head) who have told other countries and their resettlement orgs ‘we see you have a humanitarian crisis, but we’re only accepting refugees if they work in our slaughterhouses’ I recognize you’re completely entrenched in this baffling perspective and it’s kinda hard to look at, honestly. you’ve got that “when sea levels rise, everyone living on the coasts should just sell their houses and move” kind of energy.

the first step would be to shut down animal agriculture, as a huge part of plant farming and it’s inherent exploitation is in growing food to feed to the animals before they get to the slaughterhouse; we grow more than enough food to feed the planet as it is, but we waste so much of it trying to sustain animal ag, which is a failing enterprise and a massive driver of climate change

just more obliviousness

literally the first article that came up searching for slaughterhouses https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/08/11/489468205/working-the-chain-slaughterhouse-workers-face-lifelong-injuries

The workers, most often immigrants and resettled refugees, slaughter and process hundreds of animals an hour, forced to work at high speeds in cold conditions, doing thousands of the same repetitions over and over, with few breaks.

not that I expect evidence to change your mind
