This is basically why it’s important to allow pets see the bodies of dead family members. Dogs, cats, birds etc. can all understand death to a point, but if the person or another pet just disappears, they might be left forever waiting. Just like how people can be left waiting and wondering what happened for decades if someone just goes missing.

If anyone wants civil discussions about antinatalism stuff, the best bet is probably trying to find places that have strict bans on efilist ideologies (those are the “everything should die” people)

This is why I need internet. Every time a question pops up (like etymology of some word or what is the native range of some bird or other obscure stuff) I can just search for the answer. Sometimes the information doesn’t exist, but even that is an answer, just not the one you wanted. Obviously it can also spiral into finding so much interesting stuff that you forget everything else and do couple hours or pointless research into subject that doesn’t really matter, but that’s not a downside if you look at it from a certain perspective.

What I really don’t understand is how so many people end up wondering about some facts in a conversation, then everyone goes “huh, that’s a good question” and just drop the subject and talk about something else. It usually takes less than a minute to do a quick search and everyone has a phone these days. So… how? How?!

I think his reasoning was to see how far the sign holding folks would go for money, and they apparently didn’t really have any limits. Should he have done and shown it on youtube is the thing he can be criticized for

a sign of just how little people are willing to give up.

Also telling a lot about how much many people care about transphobia. Or trans rights at all
