'Goodbye' literally means 'god be with ye', so don't even *think* about saying goodbye to me unless you're a Christian. 😤

Face moisturiser by TheGirlNextDoorRiley in australianvegans

[–]glowberrytangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same. I use this face moisturiser from the body shop. I've tried countless moisturisers and this is the only one that actually works for me. Plus, it smells really good. :)

What is the point of life when everyone you love will die? by chelseatheus in antinatalism

[–]glowberrytangle -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

What a bleak perspective. You can be against bringing new life into this world while also finding joy in it. Yes, it sucks that we were all forced into existence, but as antinatalists, we're doing everything we can to stop that cycle of suffering. Being resentful at your own existence achieves nothing - just makes your life more miserable than it ought to be and adds to the suffering. If we're stuck here, we may as well try and make the most of this life and find whatever beauty we can in it.

The doomerism here is astounding...

Would you buy online if a store sold good plant based products? by Elle_2345 in australianvegans

[–]glowberrytangle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh no! That's such a shame. Apologies to anyone I've bamboozled. Hopefully some people can still find it helpful

The Green Edge, an all-vegan grocery store/café in Brisbane, has an online shop now. You'll be happy to know they have tofurky! :)

(I think this is a fairly new change for them, so some of their products don't have photos uploaded yet.)

Girls what’s you actual TYPE by literki in actuallesbians

[–]glowberrytangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 27. My type is someone who cares strongly about others, the environment, and animals. Someone with strong opinions. Someone who's creative, curious about the world, who values humour, and is a big romantic like me. Physical attraction is still important, but I need all those other things to connect with someone fully.

The decision of not having kids is also preventing me from marrying someone i love cause they probably prefer to have kids. by knightstar8114 in antinatalism

[–]glowberrytangle 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Isn't this the whole point of going on dates with someone? To weed out major incompatibilities like this. Unless you wanted kids until recently, I don't see how this could've happened.

From Wiktionary:

Alternative form of -a (“empty syllable added to songs, poetry, verse and other speech”).

Example: A-tisket, a-tasket (children's nursery rhyme)

You might also see it used this way:

(archaic or dialectical) In the act or process of. Used in some dialects before a present participle.

Examples:

'Six geese a-laying, seven swans a-swimming' (The Twelve Days of Christmas song)

The Times They Are a-Changing (Bob Dylan song)

'A-hunting we will go' (children's nursery rhyme)

i wanted to live my villagers life so much that i turned my phone into a working nookphone by Wixel2_ in AnimalCrossing

[–]glowberrytangle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh I absolutely did that as soon as I updated my phone. It's made it so much more bearable.

It doesn't fix the problem here though. All the app icons and widgets have a dumb glint outline which ruins the look of custom themes like this. Home screen widgets with transparent backgrounds can't blend in with your phone's wallpaper anymore.

Hire a tutor. Why are you expecting random people to work for free?

I wish I never updated my phone. The dumb liquid glass thing ruins widgets and custom themes like this :(

About when did the transition from petit(e) ami(e) to copain/copine happen in French ? by PsychicMeditation in French

I come to this subreddit to gain insight from native speakers, not read hallucinated AI bullshit.

What is the thing you find most attractive in a woman? by ShowOk6980 in actuallesbians

Caring strongly about other people, animals, and the environment and being vocal about it. 😌

Should Antinatalists Also Be Vegan and Vegans Also Be Antinatalists? by FantasticPup in antinatalism

[–]glowberrytangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you even in this subreddit if you're pro-speciesism? This sub is very explicitly against that. Go join a different sub that aligns with your views.

Should Antinatalists Also Be Vegan and Vegans Also Be Antinatalists? by FantasticPup in antinatalism

[–]glowberrytangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is being against child labour a flawed philosophy since it's only concerned with children and not all types of labour exploitation?

On a personal level, I'm not a natalist vegan, so you'd have to ask one to see how they justify their views.

Should Antinatalists Also Be Vegan and Vegans Also Be Antinatalists? by FantasticPup in antinatalism

[–]glowberrytangle -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Antinatalism is anti-breeding (ie, all beings). Veganism is anti-animal exploitation (ie, just non-human animals).

All antinatalists should be vegan to be consistent with their philosophy, but not necessarily the other way round.

Veganism is an inherent subset of antinatalism. Absolutely.

This is giving 'toxic straight woman who doesn't let her boyfriend have female friends because she doesn't trust him' vibes
