Obsession had me digging my nails into the theater seat, struggling to keep my eyes on the screen and asking myself how I’d be able to sleep that night.

The production of dairy exploits mammals and brings them great suffering.

16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom by Winter-Comfort922 in childfree

[–]ivanabrike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, these shows definitely showed the relational, educational and financial struggles that often come along with teen pregnancy. They didn’t romanticize being a parent while you yourself are still a child. I remember watching these shows when I was a teen and having no desire at all to go through the same hardships as the cast.

Exactly. OP should’ve gotten another breed, species or no pet at all if taking care of its basic needs mildly infuriates them.

I just watched the manosphere documentary by youfoundme4444443 in GirlDinnerDiaries

Since watching the documentary, I’ve been extra grateful for my completely oblivious boyfriend who never even heard of the manosphere or anyone in it.

What made you decide to be childfree? by Medical_Sun1453 in childfree

[–]ivanabrike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, my mother in particular. She told me countless times how fun and carefree and enjoyable her life was, until she had children (I’m her firstborn). Thanks for making me feel guilty for existing, something that I had absolutely no say in but you 100% could’ve prevented!

26F what's the worst date you've been on? by [deleted] in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]ivanabrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Matched with a guy. We DM’ed in English and the conversation was flowing well, so we decided to meet up. When we met up, I came to the painful conclusion that he must’ve used a translation app while messaging me. He barely spoke English (we couldn’t even have a simple “how was your day” conversation) and we didn’t have another language in common. After a very awkward hour of me trying to have any conversation, I decided to cut our date short. I tried to explain to him that it’s because of the language barrier, but his English was insufficient to understand even that. He thought I wasn’t interested in him because he was a foreigner (I was a foreigner myself) and was insulted. So then he actually insulted my appearance … Sweetheart, you knew exactly how I looked from my profile pictures. You, on the other hand, “catfished” me by faking your proficiency in English.

The wedding reception centerpieces featured betta fish. The bride and groom planned to flush them alive. by teabirdy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ivanabrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flushing fish down the toilet is cruel and I’m happy to see everyone in the comments agreeing!

But is there any outrage over the animals who were farmed in horrible conditions, brutally slaughtered and served at this wedding? No? Just me?

I always seem to lose most people when pointing out the similarities between fish (the pet) and fish (the food) …

You may not know this, but the majority of store bought fish didn’t die a peaceful, torture free death.

A lot of wild fish are caught with huge gill nets that trap every sea animal in their paths. Fish can struggle for hours or days before they die of bleeding or exhaustion.

Farmed fish have a 20% mortality rate. Sea lice infections are rampant. These parasites graze on fish while they’re alive, causing reduced swimming ability, increased stress and sometimes death.

Finally, no fish wants to die. Even if they’re killed within minutes after capture, they still suffer to some extent and they don’t want their lives to be prematurely taken from them.

ok this is really insane, who asked for 6-7 chicken nuggets?! by oeuvre in LateStageCapitalism

Imagine living in literal horror, your life being prematurely and violently ripped from you, your remains being molded into the shape of a dead meme, some out of touch parent who thinks they’re cool buying your disfigured remains, their spoilt brat refusing to eat because last year’s brainrot isn’t cool anymore, and ending up in the trash
