    Sometimes it's OK when animals become popular like axolotls. They are now more bred in captivity than there are wild ones. Where there natural habitat is being destroyed. Without humans they could gave gone extinct

    The only ones that should be able to own exotic animals is zoos who are qualified to properly take Care of the animals and give Them Long healthy lives. Who have qualfied caretakers, enviorments, and diets. Not 20 year olds who would more than likely throw the animals away if they didnt get enough views comments or likes. (Not that Everyone is like that, but when the hassle is worse than the gain, thats probably what a lot of People Will do.)

    Nah. this didn't hit any counter arguments. For shelf life and factory farm profits, raw milk is terrible. For individuals and local economics, raw milk is great. Especially now in modern times where every US household has electricity, running warer and a refrigerator. Milk isnt supposed to last for 6 effing weeks 😂 thats WEIRD. Its great for profit and factory farms and literally just getting by... But not going to give you optimal health and will get worse over time as your gut health suffers. Kefir, easy,bjust sit my raw milk 9j the counter Sour cream, cool, set and forget Yogurt, i got the good good like L Reuteri yall paying too much for to put bsck in to tour diet 😂 Cheese, mmm so much fresh good stuff that is easy to digest and nutritionally maximize I'm all for taking meds when helpful and needed. But pretending our latest few decades of "food safety" solved all our health problems when CLEARLY thats not true, is dumb at best and dangerous at worst

    Nah. "Dieing left and right" he's making it seem like it was a 50/50 death rate... Its a miracle anyone survived at all lmao Yes, raw milk DOES help with lactose intolerance. Different ways of processing dairy affects the amount of lactose in the finished product. Am i supposed to take health advice from that looks as unhealthy as you? I love my raw milk! It actually IS rare for people to end up in the ICU from consuming raw dairy, assuming, that like any other grocery product, its from a good ckean source and is stored propery. This video is absolutely garbage. Take pasteurized cream and put it on the counter... It will rot. Take raw cream and use this method to make "cultured cream" aka SOUR CREAM 😂 This is so fucking stupid. Its fear mongering and narrative steering.

    However one feels about the film I find it alarming as fuck that people went so goo-goo over it that they think it's some radical statement when it's one of the blatantly corporatized pats on the back ever made. Like, you CANNOT say anything bad about Barbie on twitter no matter how good faith or well thought out the criticism is. Barbie derangement is WILD. I don't want to gatekeep Barbie. Lots of women love the toy, the character, the film. And lots of women find real empowerment in it. Good for them. Who is anyone to say its not valid because the politics of the brand haven't been the best? The tension and compromise behind Hollywood films and capitalism is ongoing and always messy and often runs into hypocrisy no matter how cogent or "progressive" a films themes are. But shit, even Bay's Transformers films had the decency to be crass and rude and vulgar and offensive and act like their own thing. Those at least have something to actually talk about and get heated about. Like, Bay's Transformers films have notably problematic depictions of women and POC yet it's also about the rotten-to-the-core evils of our government institutions, big tech, and an allegory for how American treats immigrants. TF 4, one of the more criticized films in the franchise, literally has Optimus Prime kill a bunch of evil black ops CIA goons who were about to kill a teenager girl on her own front lawn. And ya'll telling me these films have nothing to say? Art is allowed to be problematic. It's allowed to be hypocritical. That's what makes it interesting. Barbie is a conglomerate congratulating itself for doing a good Pink Capitalism. I'm not one to instantly get snotty when I see product placement in a film and shit like that...but Barbie is so on the nose about all the while winking at us to make sure we're in on the joke I just felt condescended to.

    To speak from a religious perspective, prophecy is a game for old women. I am a catholic, and every single prophecy ever approved by the Church has boiled down to one central message. It has all been some iteration of "live the faith" worrying about when the end of the world is going to be is useless. The Bible itself says we won't know the hour, so trying to predict it all is a fools errand. The greatest concern for anyone ought to be living according to God's word at all times or amending their life if they aren't. With a God as merciful as the one we have, panicking doesn't have a point

    Listen. I am a bisexual cis woman. I stopped dating someone because the last two dates I went on with women were trans women who didn’t tell me beforehand. I was able to clock them easily, and I felt very afraid for my safety because I had been deceived. I am not a big woman. If you are so ok with lying to me by omission on the first date, I don’t want a second. Trans women are still biologically men. I don’t want to be lied to. Because what else will you lie to me about? Trans people aren’t exempt from the rules just because they’re in a minority class. And I’m sick of yall acting like this is ok.

    This can be quite concerning. Not only is male circumcision of children is a scam but with Foregen would it be a double scam. I pretty much have seen Rena Malik mostly demonstrated that she is pro-circumcision of adults and might have to be of children as well because she talks about circumcision and also said that mens who resent their circumcision are frequently misunderstood by medical professionals. And she should have never mentioned about the decellularized extracellular matrix in her videos. And when I say she said I mean she "SAID IT" in capitalize letters. This is beyond disgusting and of the worst problems. What is to see in the Foregen involvement.

    As an Italian, Spanish, German, North African that that was born and raised in America I am sickened by the left who tell me I am "white". My Fathers Italian side gets angry at it, my mothers German side gets angry at it, her Spanish side gets angry at it and dont even get me started about what it feels like to be told that having North African ancestors means nothing since it does not show on my skin. Anyway. BLACK culture, Asian culture, Middle Eastern culture....non of it "exists". Only local culture/national culture exists. So be sure to tell your fellow liberals to shut up about cultural appropriation next time they open their yaps to try to appear moral and woke.

    I majored in foreign languages in college so I did try a few language learning apps and Duolingo is one of them. Duolingo is okay as a supplementary source meaning it's not your main source of learning the actual language. In my case, I actually study using a book our teacher recommends which involves different aspects of language from Conversation to Grammar, Vocabs, Reading, Listening, and Writing. Yes you need to practice all of that while studying a language thus Duolingo by itself is just insufficient.

    I'm honestly glad I grew out of my "parasocial relationship with celebrities" phase. I still idolize celebrities but not obsessively, not in a way my life revolves around them or that I start developing delusions about them. I still buy some of their merch (like albums or collabs with food brands) and watch the content they put out (shows, songs etc) but that's it. At some point, I just realized that instead of investing so much time and energy into them, I should just invest in myself lols.

    this video reminded me of a girl I met in residential treagment who was there for anxiety caused by religious delusion/psychosis. I felt so bad for her because she was literally crippled by fear [of sinning or angering god] and so she basically had no life at all. she also had extreme anxiety every day partially because she was convinced she was going to hell- and it would often cause mental breakdowns.

    She became a billionaire by capitalizing off of young people’s loneliness and isolation, like they know more about Taylor’s life than real people on their life. In the Eras Tour movie on Disney, in her intro, she gloats “guess who has a sold out show in LA!” And praises herself, and it’s so cringe. Because even bigger stars Michael Jackson, Dolly Parton, etc.. just went out and sang. She feeds off her fans, and her pocketbook now shows that.
