I think a lot like you do in this regard, this is a complex topic.

At first I treated my cats like roommates almost. I gave my first kitties freedom and they paid with their lives. Now I don't let my kitties out at all.

I've come to the conclusion that the "sin" was in domesticating and distributing the species in the first place. Now that the domesticated species exists and is some combination of unfit for the environment and invasive, it's our responsibility to care for them and restrict them when necessary, including their numbers. The alternative for my cats would be a cage.

I'm an anarchist and don't feel I have any entitlement to control any another regardless of species so this was a difficult conclusion and not necessarily consistent but I don't like dead kitties.

Ya, it should be clear by now that there are no good states.

I'd say even arguing, so long as it's in good faith is healthy online conversation.

What makes a conversation unhealthy exactly? I'd say mostly things like

• not arguing in good faith (common from the right wing)

• not respecting other commenters perspectives

• insulting others

• calling them liars without evidence

• tribalism and group think

• getting unnecessarily heated

• needing the last word

• ganging up on people

The concern about TikTok acquiring your private information for marketing purposes is a red herring. The concern of our government here is propaganda and narrative control -- power.

The church is an organization that preys on people using their fear of death.

Is there a name for comedic math? I love it.

Take that pesky kids!

Mussy?

My mind cannot go there
