Domestic cats are actually a very social species, I read a couple studies on it, despite what the stereotypes make you believe. They’re just very aloof and picky with who they choose to bond with. I’ve had cats who desperately needed other cats, and I’ve had cats who really don’t like other cats, but those cats are extremely clingy with people instead.

It’s also why feral cats are found in colonies and most vets and shelters will recommend having at least 2 cats because they actually need the companionship. It’s pretty interesting!

Surgery was not done on me as a minor. I was put on HRT as a minor. I could not, LEGALLY, get any kind of surgery before I was an adult.

I am transgender. Have been my whole life, but I realized it at 12. Socially transitioned at 14, physically transitioned at 16 (because you can’t physically transition before then because doctors, shockingly 😲, fuckin’ know what they’re doing). The things I struggled with, mentally, before i began to transition at all, caused me to make attempts on my own life. Lots of teens succeed, because people won’t allow them fucking find peace in their own bodies. Teens. Children. Killing themselves. Because of stupid rehtorics like the one you’ve just spouted. Fuck off with that same old bullshit paranoia and fear mongering.

Yo what

Y’all realize that saying things like “You’ve just lost a user!” or “Deleting my account!” or “This is now the worst instance on Lemmy!”… you sound like a Karen telling the kid at the register in CVS that she’s leaving a bad Yelp review… right? Y’all seeing this? Am I going crazy here?

I think that sums up my views on money and capitalism. It’s VERY necessary for equality, like your example. With money rather than simply trading goods, the cobbler has the ability to have a full pantry as often as the shopkeep who has more to provide far more frequently. But it’s also extremely flawed, and also make inequality really, really easy. The cobbler can only make and sell so many shoes in a period of time, but a general goods shopkeep has lots of things to sell all the time, and he doesn’t have to make those goods himself, so he’s bound to be wealthier than the cobbler, unless the cobbler raises his prices, at which point fewer common folk would be able to afford his shoes, giving them less options for shoes, and/or less money to spend on other necessities. If only the world could be a little simpler sometimes.

Tf are you talking about my dude?

It just forks!

I’m brand new to Lemmy and thoroughly enjoy the old memes filling the feed. In fact they were part of the reason I enjoyed my first scroll so much.

“average person shaves 3 ants per year” factoid actualy just statistical error, average person shaves 0 ants per year. Ants Georg, who lives in cave & shaves 10,000 per day is an outlier adn should not have been counted

I think the answer is 7

Why must they be seperat? They are, after all, memes. Perhaps we should drop this notion of new memes and old memes and simply accept them all as they are, memes.
