The red looks like it's above the meme?

Like it's piled on top?

It's hard to explain...

It's wrong in a strange way

Thank you for your efforts

When I read this, my inner voice used quacks to bleep out the profanity

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago

Watch your language! You can't just throw around offensive words like c*nsor

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago

I hate the fact that for the longest time, iOS would autocorrect fuck to duck. And worse yet, they touted no longer autocorrecting it as a new feature as part of their WWDC keynote.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Worse yet are those stupid Tiktok-friendly euphemisms, like "unalive" instead of dead. Makes the meme sound like it's made for a damn toddler.

There's a part in a discworld book about a creator "god" obsessed with making beetles lol.

What the f🦆ck

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

Everyone freaking out over censoring fuck when there a beetle that looks like a giraffe out there.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

The cure for cancer? That too is a beetle.

Honestly a more theologically consistent explanation of God than whatever the fuck organised religion has been up to for the past 5000 years

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Maybe it's not about humans and never has been. Maybe by the time the gods realized how much of an issue humans were, we were already too widespread for them to destroy us without either running out of mana or ruining earth for everything.

Maybe the cancer is a god's plan, but it's not working well enough.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Anyone got links to these particular species, especially the wasp one?

Don't give a f🦆k about the children either, carcinization is expected I thought.

ETA: guess what I duckduckgo'd "wasp beetle" and found it. I feel like a genius https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clytus_arietis

Comma splice here, comma splice there.

All cancer is toxin exposure. The cure has been known for a long time, no toxin exposure.

Butt....families of cancer victims vote for pollution and smoke, etc.

Lost a family member to cancer in a cancer cluster around a church-owned industrial plant.

When the cases piled up, they did like Jesus woukd do and moved to another state. Didn't have money for raises for years because working for the Lord, but did hire consultants to fire employees and shut the plant down.

Keep believing us, we care, and we're working on a cure until federal funding and charities run out of money.

Sponsored by your friends in the petrochemical industry.

You can get skin cancer from sun exposure, does that mean the sun is a toxin? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No but it is a deadly laser

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Not anymore there's a blanket~

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Cancer is a DNA mutation. Those mutations can be hereditary, random chance, or environmentally caused.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

The mutations can be from that list, but mostly in our current world it's exposure to toxins.

Another toxin is media paving over real causes and making the story monetise curing.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yeah I don’t know about the veracity of the statement ‘all cancer is toxin exposure’ you got a source to back that claim up?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

As a society we are choosing to have industry that creates cancers. If we chose to stop doing that, maybe instead we could spend our time appreciating the beauty of each beetle.
