Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

People who complain about multiple once-in-a-lifetime events happened in their lifetime really are snowflakes.

If it wasn't for American gun owners, the fascists would have already destroyed us.

There's no ethical way to kill someone who's done nothing to you and doesn't want to die.

We should not try to save every creature, plant, business, whatever that is threatening to become extinct. Maybe it's just their time.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Businesses are obviously very different - but this is a very short-sighted view of plants and animals. It's only their time because we've massively changed ecosystems in very short timespans, and their extinctions will often further affect their respective ecosystems and other species negatively, leading to further extinctions.

The only times when this many species went extinct was when literally most species went extinct. It's naive to think this won't include billions of human deaths.

Anime and Weeb culture are a stain on humanity and objectively bad.
