Usually i wonder “Oh, xyz is still alive?”, feels werid to wonder “Oh, xyz is dead? When did that happen?”

Is this a getting-old thing? :(

so very much this. And it’s not even a random unknown news outlet.

“importing” … did a Hemp plant write this?

Really simple: because they are running it like tax funded infrastructure and not like an extortion racket.

wrong text on the picture. that one should read: “getting 200+ gambling ads daily while having the gambling gene and not gambling anyway.”

The picture that goes with the original text would be someone not even noticing the bullets flying and missing.

And people say studying philosophy is irrelevant for every day life.
here we were just laughing about a bird / venting about a predatory species, and suddenly we are talking ethics and the question if moral(?) applies to animals when discussed by humans.

You are obviously right, in that i place my “pets” over a random predator. but then again, is the comparison truely equal if the heron is your “pet”? the fish seem to me pretty passive in all this, except in their inability to not attract things that want to eat them.

Is good and bad or right and wrong even applicable to animals in nature? and does a fish in a domesticated pond even fall under “living in nature”? would that even make a difference?

Or is the fault my own for not making sure the fish are protected?

Getting back to the beginning, do i have an obligation to moderate my language in any way?
Is it mean to wish for the heron to starve?
Could maybe a case be made that it is a request for poetic justice that one heron lives and a fish dies, and another one starves and a fish lives.

Philosophy is the shit.

I wonder if he used Gemini or chatGPT to generate the speech.

I wonder if the people defending the damn bird would have reacted differently if they had watched it pull a 30 year old Koi out of their pond and flew away with it.
I knew that fish for more than half my life. My kids grew up feeding and watching them.

There is always more to a story, and it’s good to remember that first impressions of a situation are often only that.

They are trying.

Life is more than just survival.

Well, i’m not munching on your chicken nuggets, am i?

exactly!

Nice :D And thanks for the context!

Ahhh. i’m not from the UK, but i remember correctly, that it’s a folk sport to pee on her grave? Right?

let him stand there until freezes, stupid git.
Probably the same one that steals fish from our tiny gardenpond.

I don’t get it. i mean, im not opposed to the thought of turning her ashes into a ceramic poop receptacle situated in a gender neutral washing room. I love poetic justice, but the chances of that happening are rather low?

Debian is the correct answer.

Alles am thema vorbei: Eine staatliche Krankenkasse für alle. keine ausnahmen, Private krankenversicherung nur zusätzlich.
