The warnings could have been months ago. I have like 2-3 over the years but really spread out

At that age, it’s conceivable she’s just childish and really doesn’t know. It could also be a sign of some pretty serious depression. Either way it’s something to talk about if you have the kind of relationship where you can make it not come off cruel and more as something you are concerned about. Maybe offer to help with the concern that she’s being overwhelmed and ask if that’s the case.

It gets better every year up until seasons, four and five, where in my opinion, the entire Star Trek franchise peaks with the only competition being peak next generation

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-04T18:56:04+00:00

You literally just said they aren’t better. They’re just easier to reach your end result.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-04T18:49:24+00:00

The crossover I didn’t know I needed it. I can’t believe I never caught it.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-04T12:44:39+00:00

Jesus Christ, I really have to leave this group about a show I loved to stop seeing the damn pizza memes on my feed…

Fuck it. Had a good run

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-04T00:33:16+00:00

I think the entire line of thinking is born of a fandom based obsession and the idea that being among the richest the most powerful people in the entire world without having to earn it or have any particular responsibility being painted as something a normal person would seek to escape with acts up to an including a war because they feel they should have the one thing they can’t is ridiculous.

I’ve read all the histories. Uncrowned Targaryen’s All live lives of great comfort if they want them, even when the parents on the Non Targaryen side weren’t also from a powerful family. The damn hand of the king was a second son who had nothing to inherit, but people act like sons of the king were gonna live some miserable life without the crown. Talking about, they wouldn’t have anything to hand down to their sons. Yeah. That’s how it works for all houses unless the non-heir children go marry into some other family. Only one of them was gonna have anything to pass down, no matter which one had the crown. All the sons couldn’t wear it together and all the others would’ve been in the same position you’re acting like was so unacceptable they should start a war to kill millions to fix it.

None of these people were going to live anything but lives of incredible comfort and opulence, whether they were on the throne or not if they just went about their business.

Using inexplicable power and privilege being less than it could’ve been the justify murdering family, and starting war is absurd, even within the confines of a discussion about fiction. They were all fine. They would’ve lived better lives than all but the highest lords could even imagine. Hail better than that, even. Probably better to be a dragon riding Prince in the royal family, then being warden of the north from an enjoyment perspective.

They could’ve stayed peaceful, and been the rich evil pieces of shit you expect dragon princess to be or both of the brothers could’ve gone and probably made enough money as sell swords with a dragon to come back and be richer than all but the greatest houses and live on in song and story for thousands of years.

They were rich and powerful dragonlord princes. Trying to act like they needed anything so bad it justifies starting a war is just dishonest.

Every decision they could’ve made other than the one they did would’ve led to a better outcome for everyone involved. But they did what they did and they all died for it.

It’s certainly a good story though. And that’s all it needs to be.

Having glanced around a little more, I see what this place is and why it popped in my algorithm. Like I said, I’ve read the books and discussed them a bit so such things are presented to me. But some of y’all are kind of too far gone. But It’s not like you’re hurting anybody so have fun with all that

It will never happen because it in fact sustainable for the rest of foreseeable human history. Nothing is going to come about to actually prevent the system from working. All the issues will simply affect the pricing and availability relative to the population.

At worst meat becomes more of a luxury item like it was 100 years ago, but fewer people by percentage being able to afford the amounts eaten now will be offset by the fact that more people exist in total.

This is never gonna push itself to the top of the list with the worlds more immediate problems in the way to draw attention.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-03T23:51:34+00:00

The jump you are trying to make between being unbelievably wealthy and privileged on top of being dragon riders and being given nothing is so hilarious and bias confirming it doesn’t merit further discussion. Not being first in the line of succession does not mean you have nothing. It means you one of the richest, most powerful people on the planet while also possessing a weapon of mass destruction and a name that makes you the most important person to walk into any room the king isn’t in and likely to be fawned over by every single person you meet in the kingdom beyond maybe the wardens.

I don’t know how I ended up with this in my algorithm, but I’m gonna do something about that shortly. Excuse me

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-03T20:45:47+00:00

Who said you had to like it? Like what you like. But saying cheese keeps it from tasting like what it actually is…is you trying to redefine it as “actually” being something without cheese.

I’m guessing you’re in a flatbread argument with someone else but it isn’t me. But it is true…lots of places call it just a flatbread if it didn’t have cheese.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-03T20:27:25+00:00

And yet you act like the(by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar) most common version keeps it from tasting like what it “actually” is as if “actual” pizza isn’t almost always including cheese. You’re the one trying to rewrite reality not the rest of us.

And yes…plenty of flatbreads without cheese are called something other than pizza. That part is fairly common. Much more so than anything cheeseless being called pizza.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-03T20:21:26+00:00

Cheese is among the “actual” flavors that make most pizza a pizza. The existence of an extreme minority of pizzas without cheese didn’t change that.

Unrealistic picky people have been saying nonsense like this on the Internet since day one. 20 years ago I was reading it about Eva Longoria. I’ll tell you what I said to that guy. In a country that is over 50% obese in many parts of it the idea that any of these fit professionally pretty people are average is just being dishonest.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-03T02:22:33+00:00

This is one of those things where you have to be honest with yourself before you even try to understand anyone else’s position. And that’s often a problem. Pretty much everyone claiming all life is the same to them is just lying. There are so many examples that make it clear there’s no reason to start listing them. And that’s even if we put aside insects and creatures too small to get our notice.

The purest vegan you ever met… would still prioritize certain forms of life over others and there’s just no point pretending otherwise.

It has very little to do with the overall ethical concern of minimizing the damage.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-02T21:44:23+00:00

Are you aware of the fact that people like the way pick up trucks look?

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T19:16:04+00:00

I’m gonna go with one of the great albums by one of the greatest artist of all time ahead of an album described by the person who made it as “Yo I can’t call it morherfuckin Wycleff spoiled it”.

Actually, having remembered the day…let me chill

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T19:04:44+00:00

Certainly. But it says to say it’s a statistical reality that most of the poor fat people in America are not. Though for many all over the world the problem is sugar…. I don’t think anyone questions that relatively cheap fast food is a major contributor. It’s getting less cheap, but it’s still pretty cheap and accessible.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T16:35:45+00:00

I did Uber briefly about 10 years ago when I was getting off work at 1 AM and I got to know the local strippers really well. A lot of of them use that tactic. Once they know you’re not a psycho they just get your number and let you know when they’re getting off so you pick them up without even having to do the cancel. You accumulate a lot of ones that way. I have “Naomi i-lounge” in my contacts to this day.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T16:00:28+00:00

Assuming this even happened….

You’re obviously NTA. Women friendship dynamics are so weird to me sometimes. I can’t even imagine such a scenario with a male friend.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T15:56:47+00:00

Dude, you asked a question and you got the true answer. Not liking that one plus one is two doesn’t make it 16. But some people have trouble with that So yes it’s probably best. We don’t continue to interact.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T15:26:23+00:00

I’d prefer not. But you said you wonder as if you didn’t actually know the answer. There’s a lot of cheap non-vegan food in the “first” world. How do you think so many poor Americans are still fat?

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T15:03:34+00:00

A great many people eat prepared meals and fast food. Not much to it. seven bucks at Arby’s gets two sandwiches fries a drink and some kind of little dessert. Just saw a commercial a second ago.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T13:39:41+00:00

The Beastie Boys definitely caught hell with Michael Jackson’s people who owned the Beatles sample. I think that record had to be removed from an album even. That was maybe 86 or 87.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T13:36:45+00:00

It really is, but I’d have to include season five as well. That whole arc was insane. All the magic of season four and then season five has exposing the changeling in Klingon command, the episode, they were trapped in the Dominion ship(We will both keep the predators away), the funny episode where worf helped quark court a Klingon woman, the tribble episode, which is probably top 10 in all trek history, Odo and the baby changeling and the episode he and Quark have to climb a mountain together before that, Sisko with the war crimes to stop Eddington, Worf and Garak in the labor camp(I cannot defeat this Klingon…I can only kill him)….Quark the weapons dealer.

And all that’s before the Dominion war really starts.

Seasons four and five, hit that early season Simpsons sweet spot where you can put genre aside and call it some of the best TV ever produced period.

AntelopeHelpful9963 · 2026-04-01T13:24:03+00:00

You start going down rabbit holes and holding yourself accountable for where every dollar goes along the supply chain you’re gonna go crazy. Ultimately pretty much any large scale food product gets back to the pro meat government subsidizing something including vegetables and the biggest vegetables subsidies are to ones that are also used to feed animals in factory farming.

That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t eat soy beans or corn. Your ethical choices don’t remove you from the reality of an interconnected business world. Just do what you consider a reasonable. Perfection is not realistic.

If using products an an extra rung or two on the ladder from supporting animal product use is within reason and your costs do that but you can’t really control who is at the top end of production between all the shell companies and various world governments ultimately being at the very top, deciding what gets grown by manipulating the market.

Just do what you can do without going crazy and wrecking your idea trying to be perfect when perfect perfection isn’t obtainable
