Some cats are floor cats
Just like some people are couch people and other people are chair people
All we know is, lots of people will get hurt.
Cooking can be therapeutic.
And one doesn’t preclude the other.
The question is whether a time loop is a form of time travel.
Are they actually going back in time? Or is time itself looping back on itself? These aren’t the same cause, though the effects can look the same
So I suppose, conventionally, it can be thought of as a subform of time travel. But from a technical perspective, it may or may not be
Bacon is not meat.
Bacon is pure glory.
But I can see how you would make that mistake.
Should I respond to this with a your mom joke? I feel like your post might need a your mom joke.
Is it bad that I can’t tell whether 4 billion chickens is an exaggeration?
Same, came here to say this.
(The weirdest part is, his last name isn’t Drail. It’s Gomez.)
I see what you did there
(the one simple trick is diarrhea)
It’s not about the government not knowing.
The government probably already knows if you have money.
But there are lots of programs available to help defer money. A good financial advisor will know how to take advantage of them.
Talk to a financial advisor.
Do you belong to a credit union? You may have access to one for free.
They’ll be able to tell you how much you can squirrel away for retirement (legally).
If you’ve been through the center of the Galaxy, now you’re on your own. There is no further resolution.

You didn’t steal a cat.
A cat decided to move.

I’m not trying to justify anything to you, or to anyone else.
Ethics don’t exist in the world outside of humans. That’s simply a fact.
And many different human ethical systems exist. If you believe that eating animals is always unethical, that is your ethic. If that means you believe I am unethical, then that viewpoint is valid within your system of ethics.
It’s not possible to sway somebody by contradicting their own ethics; the only way to change a person’s ethics is to appeal to them by showing the commonalities between belief systems, then showing them the benefits of certain variations that you believe.
Neither you nor I like animal suffering. The difference is, I’ve seen plenty of animals lead relaxed, happy lives, that end painlessly before the animal is turned into meat. I understand that the notion repulses you.
I’ve also seen plenty of “free” animals who’ve led short, painful unhappy lives. I’m sure you and I can both agree that this is not good. And if the animal led a short, painful, unhappy life in captivity directly because it was destined to be food? That’s an inherently bad thing.
I’m not criticizing your viewpoint, and I’m not trying to justify my viewpoint to you. But my viewpoint exists, and many people hold it.
That statement is untrue, because many different sets of ethics disagree with you.
That’s more anti-finance than anti-work.
They run a business making soap, after all.
