“So that’s what things would be like if I invented the finglonger…”

Or the opposite. I have had 2 rescues that have been amazing. The second has been a ton of work but it’s well worth it because he is one of the most loving and affectionate dogs I have ever met. I also believe that not just anyone should own a bully breed (or many other breeds of dogs for that matter).

In my neighborhood, it’s 2 Golden’s that are always running free and wreaking havoc on other dogs and people. Meanwhile we have the ‘dangerous one’ because he is a pit. Our dog is not permitted outside the house without supervision and a lead if we’re outside the fence (still supervised in the fenced in area). The one time he got out I yelled ‘heel’ and he came right back. Meanwhile, the goldens chase us (and most other residents) into our own yard while the own stands still from his garage just yelling at them but the goldens don’t care. They just bark and snarl and encroach in our (and others) yard.

I argue it’s the opposite of selfish. Giving time, money, and resources to care and save an animal that was abandoned doesn’t exactly seem selfish.

I’m all for rescuing as many dogs as we can as a society (regardless of breed), but serious thought and planning needs to be in place as there are a lot of incapable people out there.

Sadly I I think you’re right. I too know quite a few people who lean left that get caught up in the whole ‘GMOs and vaccines are bad’ camp.

I believe that study (I could be mistakenly thinking of another study) also showed that their bone density decreases with domestication.

I absolutely love that haha.

Yeah, we did that and there was an insurrection… Do you think if they get voted in this time and then lose next round that they will leave peacefully?

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. I feel like her and Bill Maher are the left’s version of Tucker Carlson. Sure they’re not AS egregious as Tucker and the Fox wackos but they come off so pompous and smug.

My dad and I loved the original Daily Show with Jon Stewart and when Jon left (I’m so happy he’s back now), I tried some other shows and my dad suggested Maddow. I felt like I was watching Fox News at points. I couldn’t make it through an episode.

I believe he specifically said it during one of the debates. I really wish he would have followed through with it.

As a former 3rd party voter; it’s a wasted vote. I don’t like either parties but voting 3rd party favors the GOP in US elections. Now that the GOP is full steam ahead on facism, voting 3rd party is dangerous. Hopefully more municipalities, states, and national elections will migrate to ranked choice voting to make voting for other parties a viable option. Until then, I’d rather not vote for the party that wants a dictatorship.

Same here. I left for about 10 years but started coming back gradually a few years ago. After everything that happened this year, I made the full switch to Mozilla on all my devices. I’m very happy to be back though!
