Garlic, onion. Apple core, peel, and almond have cyanide which if eaten in copious amounts can hurt them. I try to keep them away from citrus. I don’t know if dogs and cat could eat them, but all I know is that other livestock can’t.
Lillies are extremely dangerous. Just their pollen can shut down animals livers/kidneys. Forgot which. I have too many horror stories of a person purchasing lillies or given as a gift and their curious cat put their nose in the flower.
Another super dangerous plant are jade. Extremely dangerous. Also any in that family (i think crassula?)
Y’all need to chill with this shit. Like yeah fuck the capitalist aspect of Christmas. Also fuck the Christian part of it. But you know how significant this time of year is for us humans?
This time of year is when the darkest night appears. For three days after the 21st during sunset the sun doesn’t seem to dip any further. After the third day it begins to rise again heralding longer days. Our ancestors noticed this pattern and cultures from EVERYWHERE has some tradition about it. You know how amazing that is?
I am not superstitious. I don’t believe in magic, fairy, astrological signs and whatever else. To me, this time of year is about warmth, caring for others, and partaking in part of human history and tradition. Do I get gifts? If I want to. My partners usually. But what I usually do is invite people over who are alone for the holidays. I don’t want anyone alone during this time. This is part of this tradition.
And you know what’s cool? Spice this shit up. Look up old pagan traditions of the solstice, from any and all cultures. Partake in them. Jazz it up. Or don’t. In the end do what you want.
I can wallow in the capitalist hell hole we are in but that doesn’t do anything but drain me emotionally and mentally. Instead I make something out of this time of year and give my own meaning.

People forget good things can be propagandized, like the COVID vaccines. We got a slew of ads and media telling us to get it for this reason or another. From experts and data, knew the intent of the ads were for the better of man kind.
They have the same minimalist look now so that makes sense. When I was scrolling I saw the colors and general design of this post and it looked like something reddit do. When i stopped and focused on the post I saw it was Discord.
It’s same recycled design every tech company goes for now.
You’re at the ballot box. It is between Biden and Trump. In this hypothetical it is so far a tie. They are neck to neck. Let’s say it is 5 mil votes to 5 mil. Either needs one more vote to win. Your vote is the deciding one to be president.
So you relinquish responsibility and defer it to another entity? One that is currently corrupt and broke, paralleling your issue with the executive office and election process.
So you’d put it up to some nebulous future decision, by another entity, with who’d be president? If Trump is elected he isn’t leaving office. We are going full fash, and people of color and queer folk will be going first. Trans people will most likely first.
If Biden wins, for the most part the status quo stays the same but we get a chance to democratically make life better. Trans people are much safer in this path, same with other marginalized folk.
With this information, would you reconsider your answer?
Why can’t you do that while being under a democratic presidency? Why not vote for Biden, prevent deaths and pain and human suffering, but also work towards that goal?
Under fascism, good luck doing that. It’s going to be impossible to build robust networks of mutual aid. You are going to be in a concentration camp next to me, waiting in line to be gased or cooked.
And who needs to give Dems time or energy? Fuck them. I barely think about them. I vote blue, and while I do l, I work with my community to make it better. I help support progressive candidates and policies, unions, and so much more. All this only possible under a non-fascistic regime.
To me, it sounds like you’re waiting for that convenient hour. That right candidate. I rather do that while alive and have my freedoms.
I believe we should reduce harm. We shouldn’t cause more pain and suffering. Not voting for Biden does this. This accelerationism is a gigantic gamble, and no matter what it will just increase pain. If Trump becomes presidency, it won’t just be another Republican. It will be another Hitler. You are trans right? You are at the front of the chopping block. You aren’t getting any of your goals done.
I am ultimately not telling you what to vote for. I want to explore what makes an individual think why they shouldn’t vote this upcoming election. This hypothetical leads to genocide. It’s unfortunate many people think this way. I don’t want my partner and loved ones come to harm. We don’t have that privilege to not vote.
That’s not going to change the fact of the next election candidates. We need to work with the system. We need to mobilize grassroot movements and affect local politics. Look at the wins in Michigan or Minnesota (forgot which) that had a full Democratic government. We got so much ground there. We gain a lot more when we have Dems instead of Repubs at the head of power.
Yes, we need better candidates. Yes, we need these policies passed to change the material conditions of American. But the Dems will NEVER be perfect. Progressive will NEVER be perfect. Socialists, communist party, etc. will NEVER be perfect. We need to work with what we have.
Right now we are faced with the decision of the country becoming fascist, making our goals unattainable, or working with a democratic system and doing our best moving socialist ideals. I rather do the work in that environment than seeing my partner and loved ones die because they are trans. I rather not be put in a concentration camp.
Nothing will happen if America becomes fascist. We are done. Our movement will be quelled. Mass death. This isn’t an exaggeration. Look at Project 2025 and you can extrapolate from there.
I’m okay with more rural areas if the cities have a robust public infrastructure and carbon emissions. Over time, rural areas should be integrated more intimately of course.
It’s as though Dems are critical of presidents. It doesn’t matter who is in office. It’s like Dems aren’t fanatic like Republicans. And my supporting evidence is Biden’s approval rating.
Haven’t watched the video, but pretty much fandom is just shady and a brutal user design. Have you tried using it on mobile? 90% of the screen is covered with ads. Even after you close them, the ads pop up again. They also embed streams from theur Twitch so they can inflate their viewers and make more money that way. Their website is shitty enough to waste even more web browser resources on that. They are greedy af.
To get an idea of a good unofficial wiki, take a look at the terraria one. It is clean, informative, decent navigation, and user friendly.
You detect light to know when to wake up or something is happening. Totally blind people also have the mechanism and why they know when it is morning (unless they are missing the organ). I am sure there are other reasons.
This is just how language evolved. It is a human phenomena. The slang you picked up was also adapted from other phrases that someone of the older generation will deem more correct.
