As an American, I have despaired every day since the election about where we are headed. My hope is that, as in past times when we have lost our collective minds, we will find a way to self correct.
Know that nearly half of all voters did NOT want this direction and many will be mounting a vigorous fight against fascism.
Its going ti be ugly, though. I also despair for Europe who are about to see their fascists voices amplified to a very high volume.
In my dreams, a new instance is built completely around soccer/football and this great sport gets the focus and attention on Lemmy it deserves across various leagues and geographies, with team forums for ultras.
Ive just lost 40 pounds in five months on a vegan diet. When my doctor told me to lose weight, I told him I was vegan. He referred me to a dietician who worked with my preferences. Basically, I take vitamin, drink all the protein shakes I want (its based on powdered plant proteins), eat all the fruits and veggies I want, and avoid processed junk foods. I've never been hungry and I'm very glad there's no calorie counting. I walk 30-40 minutes a day, and that's progressed to a jog. I've never felt better.
HaHaHa! Well done #threadiverse. The system mostly works. As a vegan and dog father, I watched this play out and found it both funny and instructive.
Hell hath no fury like a cat owner on the moral high ground.
I love March 31. Bring on the dividend payments! Feed me!
