Every time I see this comic by The Other Wilcox, I feel such profound sadness. When this comic was released back in 2017, ibises here in Australia were being culled because they are considered by most to be a dirty, disease-ridden pest with a weird beak.
Agreeing with capitalism ideologically doesn’t make you a capitalist. A
capitalist is someone who owns and manages capital. A person who agrees
with capitalism ideologically but doesn’t own or manage capital is
called a “sucker.”
jordan peterson’s fucking insane all-meat diet is almost certainly going to kill him and i personally find that extremely entertaining
“i ate like a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and was overcome with an inexplicable sense of impending doom and couldn’t sleep for a month” like BITCH that is NOT a healthy reaction lmfao
like if someone threw a fruit in his general direction he’d probably fall over convulsing and start coughing up blood
Exactly. High meat diets in the north aren’t based on steak and salt- the people up there were and are eating significant quantities of marine animals (wanna get vitamin D into your diet, seal fat’s a pretty good way to do that). Also, their “all meat” diet was/is supplemented with foraging; kelp, seaweed, berries, and roots form part of the diet annually. Finally, there’s actually pretty substantial carbohydrate intake in the form of dietary glycogen- indigenous peoples of the Arctic circle/polar regions have meat preservation practices that are pretty sophisticated. Generally, they will freeze meat under an animal hide with the blubber layer still intact for insulation. This leads to fermentation in the muscle fibers, creating carbs. Marine mammals also have high levels of dietary glycogen, which acts as an oxygen supplement for long dives. Finally, polar peoples eat a lot of foods frozen or raw, like seal brains- these contain high levels of vitamin C, which would be destroyed by the cooking process.
Also, the myth that this diet is good for you is just that, a myth. It was made up in the 70s by some Danish guys who wanted to sell fish oil. They never actually studied rates of heart disease in Arctic people, and when this was actually studied, it turns out that not only do indigenous Arctic people have a similar prevalence of coronary artery disease as western populations, they also have twice the risk of the rest of the North American population for death via cerebrovascular strokes. This is one of the very, very few cases where the adoption of a more standard American diet has reduced mortality.

In conclusion: humans are not obligate carnivores, eat a goddamn broccoli once in a while.
The Leatherdos is a hair clip that doubles as a multi-tool that combines 5 different tools in a tiny hair clip: screw-drivers, a wrench, a trolley coin, a ruler, and a cutting edge.
Fun story: I have one of these, and wore it every day while working as a vet assistant at a pet clinic. One day a kitten comes in with a cord knotted around her neck, and everyone’s trying to get it unknotted before she heads in for her spay.
I just whip off the hair clip, grab the cord, and slice through it in one go. Everyone stood there, surprised, and stared at the cord in my hand that I just sawed through with a hair clip.
This would be AMAZING if you got kidnapped, or, in this case, a pet gets tangled in something. It’s very light and flexible, but the insides of the teeth are sharp enough to get the job done.
Y’all are close, but not quite there. This isn’t James Bond, this isn’t Kingsman; this is some Totally Spies shit we’re looking at, and it’s glorious

This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
