Apparently this flag has been used recently by Drumpf's supporters, specifically those that think the election was stolen, and it was seen flying outside Alito's summer home.

Because the idea that there are vegans and vegetarians is an implied accusation of guilt to people that eat meat and animal products that are the direct result of animal suffering. Some people that don't eat animal products might be militant or preachy, but I've never met one. In fact I have only ever met the inverse, people that constantly berate people for being vegan or vegetarian. Having been one myself, I can say that for me and people I know it is the same reason religious people hate atheists; their existence implies that people that eat meat are wrong and therefore bad people. Studies have confirmed this. Here is an article from the BBC that goes over some of the studies.

Stop. Please. We can only get so erect.

Even in religious circles the forgiveness part is normally left out. The phrase often repeated is "Jesus died for your sins" without any mention of forgiveness. Since that is the common turn of phrase then this depicts children suffering/dying because of the sins of someone else.

When my dad died my wife, myself, and our two boys, moved in with my mom because she has no idea how to take care of normal life stuff. My brother lives in the same property as her and couldn't be bothered to check in on her because he was, understandably, distraught. For two years of living there my mom leaned on me but only ever asked me once how I was doing, my wife only ever complained about living there and never asked how I was doing, yet insisted we should stay if I suggested leaving. I have three super close friends, and I don't think I would have made it without them.

Check in on your friends, even when they're not going through something traumatic, because you may be the only one who does.

Because it's misleading at best. If you and I were racing and I moved at twice your speed for four hours it would be misleading to say you were outpacing me when you start moving faster than me for four minutes. Just because you are now faster than me you are still very far behind and therefore it makes no material difference how fast you are currently moving. American workers are still in a hole caused by stagnant wages and corporate price gouging that's lasted for decades.

Back in my day we got an extra attack at 6th, 11th, and 16th level, and each one was at a cumulative -5 penalty, AND WE LIKED IT!

I live in her district. She is an obvious Russian agent. I got a call from her campaign before her first election and they asked me "How important is improving trade and diplomatic relations between the US and Russia to you as a voter?"

I just hope I live to see a day when a grandchild asks me to tell them about how the Swifties defeated homegrown fascists and saved us all from the republican party and their enablers. I finally feel like the work is paying off and we can make some progress as a species, and for historians to remember Taylor Swift as the one who helped tip the scales it would make my day.

“It is not possible to overdose by touching or accidentally inhaling fentanyl, and the same would apply to non-human animals as well,” Leo Beletsky, a professor of law and health sciences at Northeastern University, told The Times on Saturday.

So the dog couldn't have inhaled it then if the story is to be believed because the dog isn't going to intentionally inhale it

Because the drug is poorly absorbed through the stomach, he said, an animal would probably have to ingest the substance through its nose in order to overdose.

Yeah, this is definitely a made up story as others have said. Dog is still lucky it wasn't shot on account of it being a dog near police though.
