Source?

Cattle are the No. 1 agricultural source of greenhouse gases worldwide. Each year, a single cow will belch about 220 pounds of methane. Methane from cattle is shorter lived than carbon dioxide but 28 times more potent in warming the atmosphere

If you could graph sentient creatures' collective agony I'm sure that would line up pretty well too

I hope things get better

He wants to forgive us?? Then he could do it. He's all powerful, all knowing after all. What do I have to be forgiven for? Original sin? Give me a break.

How many hoops do you need to jump through to arrive at a christian conclusion? How many times did you have to be told to believe in something unprovable and invisible?

Your fervent beliefs are likely held less strongly than some Hindus, Muslims, Jews, etc. They are ALL sure that you are wrong, just as you they. Can't you see the futility of pretending to know something unknowable? If you had been born somewhere else, you would perhaps hold completely different views just as strongly.

You blindly place your trust in other humans who are telling you to believe in something utterly impossible. You really think they have translated divine will over millennia? Let alone accurately? If the devil exists, then he lives in the utter hubris of humanity. To think that we can know the unknowable.

Isn't it convenient that the "devil" is responsible for sowing the seeds of doubt. Isn't it convenient that no matter what logic and reason you apply, your religion can merely hand-wave and say it isn't for us to know? Are you satisfied with non-answers and manipulation of your emotions?

You're being duped. I genuinely hope you can find your way out.

Cheers,

Idk Biden making jibes and jokes makes him appear mentally with it which contrasts the fox news narrative. It's not as mean spirited as Trump has been and even comes off as tongue in cheek IMO. I can see more positives than negatives, but I can also see it being spun by hacks, sure.

This particular joke was aimed at none other than Trump, so you saying this is Biden dunking on the poors does place you in a precarious position of calling Dolan a "poor" and defending him

I'll assume you understand metaphor/wordplay despite the jab.

You place Trump in remotely the same category as the "poors" which is comical. Obviously Biden doesn't make this joke about moms on WIC, etc., ie the real poors. You use more charged language like "millionaire president", but when was the last president who wasnt wealthy? What is your point? You can't place the Bidens' wealth remotely near the true robber barons, but thats what you attempt to evoke.

You have not presented facts, but rather used manipulative language endearing to Trump

Is your back okay? Those mental gymnastics look hard for even someone half your age

Yeah I agree... but that isnt reddit's model at all. It would take a massive restructuring and let's be honest, it would not work.

Also those are unrealized gains which he can choose to cash out if he doesn't shit up the stonk price. Can't put monopoly money in an employee's pocket and call it a salary (per the mods being paid)

He makes $300k/yr in cash and the rest is stonks. Is he comically overpaid? For a CEO of a gigantic social media corporation that he took to IPO?

I fuckin hate spez and I think "billionaire" is a concept that should not exist.

... but what portion of his 300k should volunteer mods get? Should they get stocks? Are they contractors? FTEs? Plenty to be outraged about other than community moderators who volunteer their time for free willingly imo

I remember when Obama was the antichrist and my father was waxing about the end of all things. Meanwhile this orange fuck holds a bible upside down and embodies nearly every "sin" you can think of and not a fuckin peep

Honestly, agree. People need to pick. Do you want human rights violating prisons filled to the brim with people and violence? Or do you just want that for the cops? How many innocent and non violent people are being subjected to the same or similar treatment?

In my opinion, the quality of a society can be observed on how they treat their prisoners. If you're okay with torturing people who have gone through the judicial system, then you're just as much a barbarian as any other.

How can you make the world a better place if you are adding suffering? To be fair, I have similar sentiments toward animals especially anything factory farmed. I can't even tacitly accept any worldview that is okay with the suffering of anyone or anything, let alone one that cheers it on.

Fuck these fucking pigs, but I hope they live lives free of torture, save that imposed by their own consciences (hopefully).

Honestly, I thought the same! I primarily use DDG, but when that doesn't cut it, I go use my Kagi free trial of 100 searches. It's lasted me months at this point, which is a testament to DDG and Kagi tbh. DDG for getting me there 99% of the time, and Kagi for delivering on the rest, with the bonus of being customizable and privacy focused. When the trial runs out, I will likely purchase the lowest tier so I can mix it in more bc the result quality is truly higher and it actually LISTENS to my quotes and + & - terms. You may not do as many searches as you think, and for throwaway searches, DDG is probs good enough.

Im a dev & my entire job is googling shit basically, so it's worth it for me to get quality results without dealing with the bullshit AI SEO wasteland
