  • Unfettered? No. Feral cats often aren’t cared for and live suffering lives. They have significantly shorter lives. They’re domesticated animals and aren’t suited to life in the wild. We bred that out of them. They fare better than dogs, but they deserve better.

    I just buried one that some asshole dropped off near my house. My dog doesn’t do well with cats and I found them scrapping in the yard. I pulled them apart, literally the cat had several claws stuck in my dog’s face. I went out a few times to make sure that it was ok. After about 20 minutes it was gone. Three days later I go out to see my dog barking at the road. It seemed like the cat was back. Either running away from my dog or distracted by her, it lay dead in the road. It has been run over by a car or a truck. Blood everywhere. I put my dog in the house and scooped it up into a bucket and buried it with my shovel.

    This wasn’t just some feral cat. It was friendly and had known the love of people. Unfortunately, that love wasn’t enough to do what was right. It deserved better. This happened about a month ago and it still bothers me.

    Get your pets spayed and neutered. If you can’t afford to house the results of your irresponsibility, then at least do right by them, and make sure they go to loving homes, instead of dumping them off at someone’s farmhouse in the country.













  • So let’s say, hypothetically.

    The president thought that people shouldn’t eat chocolate ice cream. It’s anti-american.

    And “for the good of the country” anyone who eats chocolate ice cream has to be isolated from the rest of society.

    That’s not an official act. It’s not really on the periphery of official acts.

    But because definitionally, anything that, at the president’s sole discretion, is “in the best interest of the United States” is now argued as an official act.

    Biden likes vanilla ice cream.
    But he isn’t going to detain you for unamerican activities if you prefer chocolate ice cream.

    Choose freedom! Choose chocolate ice cream!

  • Well that is the end goal, it’s not going to work overnight. The point I was trying to make was harm reduction. Biden is certainly not my choice, but the cabinet he has is quite good. The down ballot has races with actual progressives that I do support.

    By not voting in this election, you’re choosing to be okay with the result. And if the result is Trump? I fear that it’ll take decades to recover, if we ever do. It didn’t work out for Germany, but who is going to successfully invade us? Not with Europe dangerously flirting with Fascism certainly. It’s as if the sacrifices from 80 years ago are completely meaningless.

    Now, regarding mutual aid. There are two channels that I recommend that have videos on this.

    One day, probably not in my lifetime, I would like to see us achieve fully automated gay space communism. It’s a long road, but if enough people are discouraged into not voting because our corporate leadership can’t front the ideal candidate… It might be eve online? Or maybe we’ll be an irradiated wasteland.

    Personally I’m holding out for a meteor or when the sun starts fusing iron in 4.5 million years and swallows the earth. Talk about global warming!
