- Comment on Vegan drink Oatly can’t call itself ‘milk’, judges rule 3 weeks ago:
other than it had some cow involvement somewhere
Nope! Goat milk is common, so is human (though not commonly sold). My answer would be “mammal tit juice” but the UK seems to have summed it up nicely above with “mammory secretions” as well.
- Comment on Vegan drink Oatly can’t call itself ‘milk’, judges rule 3 weeks ago:
Tbf especially with “almond milk” I could 100% see that. Honestly it’s more logical than “they squeeze all the juice out of the almonds” (I have no idea the process for making almond milk lmao ykwim), someone seeing it and saying “Almonds huh? Crazy, what flavor will they think of next? I’d have chosen hazelnut” is really not that big of a jump.
Honestly I’m more surprised I didn’t think that, but iirc I was informed about it through a vegan friend before I even saw it in the store.

Yoohoo is chocolate “drink” not “milk” either, this tracks.
- Comment on Trump confirms plan to declare national emergency, use military for mass deportations 5 weeks ago:
Interesting note: The camps started under Obama, certainly continued under trump, and only ramped up once Biden took over. Something tells me that Kamala wasn’t going to buck that trend, it seems to be a bipartisan effort.

- Comment on How screwed would one be if their email provider shuts down? 1 month ago:
I figure I’d be mostly ok, the email I use for things I’d need to save is stored locally by thunderbird so I could still access those emails, the only problem would be changing the email on a few services.
The hardest part would be replacing that email address. That said, anyone have a rec for a good email service, preferably free, with IMAP/POP3 for use with tbird, that is at least ostensibly private (I know, email is inherently not private, but ykwim), and doesn’t just get shoved in spam on gmail (since that’s what everyone else has)? Riseup would be cool for instance but it’s impossible to get an invite. I’m thinking I may just pay mailbox.org but I’d prefer not to.

Sometimes you can reach out to support and get them to fix it, but not always. Worth a shot, if you can remember the services that need to be changed lol.
- Comment on Why are people preferring Blue Sky over Mastodon? 1 month ago:
Tbf the internet is entirely comprised of like 6 websites if you ask the average Joe, and I’m damn inclined to agree as someone who remembers webrings fondly and misses them (it’s like the bell curve meme lol).
But I agree, if they can email they can mastodon, it’s the same shit.
- Comment on Why are people preferring Blue Sky over Mastodon? 1 month ago:
Evidentially mastodon makes it hard to find people on purpose unless you know their name “to stop harassment” I’m told, except I’m not sure how it does that at all and it just makes it harder to use the damn platform. That’s my one real complaint about mastodon.
- Comment on USA | Trump speaks with Putin and advises him not to escalate Ukraine war – report 1 month ago:
Idk, he’s already had one presidency (yes, but what about second presidency? Lol sorry) so I mean any компромат they may have would already be known by trump most likely, and of course they’ll use it, that’s the whole point of компромат. To me it seems more like they just wanted to say “america bad” to their populace, which also does have some implications about US/RU relations, (namely, that they’re about to tell us to stuff our own assholes on the ukraine “peace” bullshit trump has been “calling” about).

I mean, it’s not like nudes of Melania are hard to find, you can just google them, she posed nude for a magazine that was published it’s not like they robbed her safety deposit box or whatever.

- Comment on Microsoft wants $30 to let you keep using Windows 10 securely for another year 1 month ago:
Honestly I figure “work computers” are often overlooked because many companies force windows for their
spying“productivity monitoring” apps.That said, there’s always “having a work computer and a separate secure personal computer.” The linux machine doesn’t even have to be particularly powerful, it could be whatever old used machine (w/o nvidia) you can get your hands on.
- Comment on Microsoft wants $30 to let you keep using Windows 10 securely for another year 1 month ago:
If whatever programs you need don’t require internet access and you aren’t at risk of evil maid attacks then it hardly matters if win10 isn’t secure. It definitely isn’t ideal, but if the options are:
A) Do all your personal stuff on linux and only boot w10 when you have to, offline.
B) Only have w10 and run hope.exe for security.
I’d choose A.
- Comment on You have 8 seconds. 1 month ago:
It’s a list taken from every complaint I’ve heard from women about being asked out in those places, usually accompanied by general statements about how “it’s never ok to ask a woman out there” or how “all women hate it.” Both IRL and online.
If you’d like to do an experiment, make a post, here or on reddit or some public forum, asking “Women of X, where is it inappropriate to ask a woman on a date?” If every place I listed isn’t mentioned in the thread (without mentioning this experiment, has to be blind) I’ll put my hat in my butt.
Men will tell you “just hit on her at a hobby bro, go to the gym” women will say “hell no I’m here to work out not hook up, we get hit on at the gym constantly it’s exhausting.” By that math it has to be working for some men some times for them to suggest it, but it clearly is also making women uncomfortable.
- Comment on You have 8 seconds. 1 month ago:
Also don’t ask women out at the gym, at work, in a store, on the street, or any hobby where they just want to enjoy themselves and not have to be asked out politely or otherwise.
The only acceptable places according to women are on the apps and in bars, or church supposedly if you’re one of those.
I don’t do the privacy violating apps, I don’t drink much anymore, and both of those are more “hook up” culture while I want like “an actual relationship,” and church just isn’t for me. Like, I could go hang out but I’m not going to believe in your gods, and that is a point of contention with the faithful.

Tbf women say they find just interacting with men at all intimidating, see: Bears. I just don’t talk to anyone anymore tbh.
I’m gonna die alone with my cats, but at least I won’t be called creepy for asking a woman out for coffee!
Use the apps
No, privacy nightmare.
