Cats are small businesses

What does this have to do with atheists?

I support supporting girl scouts and their fundraising, but I don’t want high calorie, unhealthy cookies. The cookies make me feel sugar sick.

I saw a flyer with a QR code on it to order girl scout cookies.

cats are hobosexuals (no sex included)

All kitty cats out there. No matter their size.

If it fits, it sits

I spent months deleting my old reddit comments. And I’d have to type in my username on a search engine after about a month or two and find more of my old comments and delete those too.

I know the bots already scrapped my contributions. I wanted to say fuck off to to Reddit and take back my contributions.

I regret every time I revisit Reddit. Them shutting down old.reddit will certainly keep me from ever going back. It’ll be a blessing in disguise for me.

I was addicted to reddit for over 10 years when they shutdown the RIF app. At first I felt like an addict detoxing and it hurt. but now I can look back at those times and say good riddance to Reddit.

I still enjoy this format of social media, and therefore use Lemmy a lot. It’s clear there’s no algorithm or bots upvoteing trying to make me angry or keep me on the site. There’s less bots here trying to steer the conversation or promote their product. I’m happy with Lemmy. Fuck reddit to death.

Or we could guillotine the most wealthy in Europe, which would be interesting

We can do both! And call it pre-daptive

What if the reflective screen is angled towards another planet and signs of life appear?!

Do you blame the US or other polluter nations for Europe’s heatwave?

The EU could take steps towards less dependency of the US (and other continents for that matter)

I was under the impression that Europe’s current carbon footprint was lower than much of the world.

Nuclear energy is an interesting discussion. I’ve heard the suggestion that it’s one good alternative specifically for now until communities and countries can get better renewable energy alternatives. But people can be so weary due to the low but real risk that things have gone wrong in the past.

Many people seem comfortable with bringing back guillotines, including me. It would be interesting to see the reaction.

I think there’s more that Europe can do besides sit back and wait.

Since over 1000 people have died, European countries can plan for the next heat wave. Apparently some people have drowned because they swam in areas they didn’t realize were more dangerous than they appeared. Installing informative signs or posting life guards in high traffic areas could save lives at rivers and lakes. That’s just one idea.

We know the elderly have disproportionately died and they don’t notice the heat as well due to poor blood circulation, so sharing information specifically for seniors in their languages could save lives. There’s still plenty to learn and do now.

Interesting. What are a couple things Europe should do to reduce it’s carbon footprint?

I already abstain from beef for environmental reasons. And limit my dairy too.

I heard that the local nut farms in my region consume a lot of ground water. and the majority of their sales are abroad, so I try to eat less nuts now too. I don’t want to support nut farms in my area that majority focus on selling abroad or to far away places, because us locals need that ground water more than their profits.

should the EU take action against billionaires or the US to address climate change? I suppose they could impose sanctions, fines, or something to save EU lives?
