Thanks!

That’s actually meant as an imperative statement.

Hi, OP. Per Rule 4, do you know who the artist is? The signature “DK” isn’t much to go off of. If you can’t find it, that’s okay too, as long as you feel you’ve tried.

In a series of social media posts on Monday, the US president compared warnings about AI to the “Global Warming Scam”, that he said was “being perpetrated by the Radical Left Dumocrats”.

I don’t drink, but I’m buying a bottle of vodka to celebrate when the aneurysm comes.

That’s 03:14 if it’s HH/MM, you absolute heathen.

Oh, great, a bot. Well this one decided to link to a live feed where even now, you have to scroll down to find the article.

• Here’s a Reuters article that’s more permanent.
• Fuck allowing bots to post in current events comms.

OC is allowed. Like you did here, you still need to attribute it, just to yourself.

Sure, but that’s wrong and used for convenience because the terminology got muddled early on. That was the original definition (i.e., no eating animal products), but the Vegan Society who created the term changed it not long after (in the 1940s?) to include avoiding exploitation generally “as far as is possible and practicable”. That’s because veganism is an ethical movement that sees this exploitation as fundamentally wrong. There’s still a note about this original definition at the end, of course, because a dietary term is largely how it exists in the minds of non-vegans.

What you’re referring to is a plant-based diet(er) (or “strict plant-based diet” if you want to be really clear and beat marketing buzz). Calling a vegan “someone who eats meat no more often than a month” in the sense of how vegans use the term would be like defining someone who’s anti-dog-abuse as someone who kicks their dog at most once a month.

(Edit: Notably, “vegan diet” is used among vegans, but because it’s a diet that comes as a consequence of being vegan, not because following it makes you vegan.)

TL;DR: That’s a definition used mainly among non-vegans.

Nasty. I thought this was satire at first and had to read it back.

Damn, didn’t realize California was that baja.

True, we’re just going for intra-series consistency with Roman numerical prefixes.

OP, “mono-” is the Greek root. You’re looking for “unisexual”.

According to Wiktionary, the etymology of “shark” beyond Middle English is unknown – and even there, we only see it once in 1442.

Edit: the Online Etymology Dictionary has more.

Fun facts about horseshoe crabs:

• Not crabs, in fact not even close. Chelicerates like the arachnids.
• Have photoreceptors in their “tail” (telson).

Edit: For some taxonomic context, king crabs are closer than shrimp are closer than woodlouse are closer than barnacles are closer than bees are closer than myriapods (centipedes and millipedes) are closer than horseshoe crabs to being crabs.

Haha, yes. I agree, fellow reader. bzz bzz 🐝
