Fair point. I should not have grouped Progressives with Liberals. But in the current US political landscape, Liberals tend to move policy forward even if they are only tiny incremental changes.

This makes a lot of sense actually. Conservative values represent upholding the status quo and at this exact moment that is how society works. So in the moment they see society following their values which makes them happy.

Progressives and Liberals are programmatic and critical of society and see things that could be better. That inherently makes you less happy with what’s going on around you since you can imagine a better world.

Yes ignorance is indeed bliss when it comes to being conservative.

We can only hope

Amygdala too big and cerebrum too small

What’s really interesting is to look at the time scale when each our pets were first domesticated. Dogs domestication happened between 20,000 and 40,000 years ago, while the cat started becoming domesticted only 4000 years ago. Pretty crazy to think how much of a difference their is in the time it took each of them to become adaptive to human society. Makes you wonder what house cats will be like given the time frame dogs have had.

I want to better understand this because the sky is clearly a specific color that has been there since the beginning.

How did proto humans not look up at the sky and considered in their feeble brains, “everything above the ground is this very unique color. It’s different from the ground, and the plants.”

I get that sea and lakes really don’t look blue. But did they look up and not see some shade of blue on a clear day?

The US in nutshell here

The naked party at the end was perfect lol

Ive had one and it was quite tasty. Yours looks even better than the one i had. What’s the sprinkle stuff on the outside?

That’s awful. I hope their death was quick painless

Accurate.

Okay so scaled algorithm is elevating highly downvoted posts. I better make a post about this so we can have this fixed.

Great news. it’s also nice to see they are more accurately counting active users with the latest update. I still think Lemmy will surpast a million active users with in a year or two.

Yeah that sunset is small.

Strange New Worlds has been pretty damn good and a return to form. Though you could say Season 2 went a little too hard with all the genre swapping per episode. I hope they tone it down and do a bit more of the anomaly of the week kind of thing in season 3

Awesome

Is there any research going on for anti-aging in cats yet?

Also Reddit has been around for over a decade and lemmy has existed for about 4 years. It’s hard to compare the two in that regard.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I guess I’ve gotten so use to today’s pirating techniques that my perception of what is considered easy has changed. Reading through your post, I’m reminded of how much easier it really was back then.

Care to elaborate?

Talk about an unpopular opinion. But hey your entitled to your opinion
