That's a mouse though.

Rats usually can handle choking on their own. While they can't burp or vomit, they have super complex throat muscles and can slowly back up a blocker object to clear the airways. But it wouldn't surprise me if they also did first aid like the mice

Grooming is a heavily social behavior in rodents, so my guess is that it is used as a simple wellness check, to see how the choking party reacts and how severe the problem is

The biggest problem with AC Shadows is the perfect Japanese Assassin's Creed game already came out. This studio called Mimimi Productions (two words, pronounced phonetically) came out of nowhere in 2016 and released this game called Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, then just dipped off the face of the earth.

It does everything an assassin's creed game does, but better. And no one knows where they came from or has heard from them since.

Okay but for real Shadow Tactics is great, even if not really like AC. It's more like a feudal Japan Commandos game.

I had a similar experience, sans jail and FBI. During a family gathering, I argued with my father that poor people should not be poor and jobs exploit us all. He's like "this sounds just like some run of the mill Marx and Engels".

So then I read Marx and Engels and now I want to destroy the West

There are a few ML parties in Europe that have technically participated in elections (though more as an instrument of agitprop rather that to actually win), I bet they are referencing those and not just being a lib

You're right on the money there's already a lot of focus on "poor isolated white swedes", nothing on the fash narratives soaking every corner of society

The "personal ownership" is already commodifying the animal, and the "well cared for" part is bullshit, chickens kept for laying can not be well cared for by definition, as the modern breeds are literally slowly killing themselves through nutrient depletion. Such chickens can only thrive if they for example are stopped from laying (e.g. with hormonal implants), which negates the very reason a person like that would keep them. Then, the very motive for keeping the animals in the first place will eventually drive a small scale farmer to compromise on the conditions, because keeping animals alive is not cheap in on itself.

And don't give me this shit about "not caring about animals" and "lashing out", you literally wrote the most stereotypical anti-vegan slop just because I said people should eat beans rather than commodify animals

What are you even talking about, "long standing peace" and "harassment campaigns"? They started posting eating memes about dogs and local scratched anti-vegans tried to turn it into an anti-asian hate thing when there was no such element there at all. That was the "campaign". It's like calling out people who post cracker memes for doing "harassment campaigns"

Holy shit, a bona fide anti-vegan reactionary on hb, I thought yall went silent back when vcj migrated here

Or don't, eat beans instead of exploiting non-human comrades

I didn't even go through HR for my last two jobs, it's as if the positions were completely pointless. Only contact I had with them was ordering vegan refreshments for various company events

Self driving cars are still not "done", it seems like most big manufacturers work on them and it's still hot. I've worked on one such project for a huge global company, and I'm about to start working on another, this time open source and for a university. Kinda sucks if this is what becomes my niche then dies off lol

They are machines, so I rage against them

I have zero media literacy

Tyranny felt so fresh because of it, as it was something like 10-15h if I remember correctly.

what the fuck, I thought at least cars were affordable in the US.

I live in europe and my (used) car from 2010 cost me $4k and required zero additional maintenance, it just works perfectly and has been for over a year now, and is comfortable as shit too. And if I lived in the city, I wouldn't even need a car bc transit is fine in most places here

My favorite prefix will always be exa. Mostly because of a sci-fi book where one character called himself Exa and there were a few subtle puns with that name (like getting obliterated with a 10^18 W laser)

just wanna say I love this community and how welcoming it is towards veganism, it’s a breath of fresh air every day here

It wasn't always, the pro-veganism bent was won with countless struggle sessions. I was here 3 or 4 years ago on a different account when there was a huge push against vegans. Many good comrades swore off the site back then due to that shitty reaction.

Amazing game, but I never finished it. I should probably replay it, I need the emotional cleansing it brought me (going through a serious breakup rn). The hedgehog lady made me weep for hours.

If I remember correctly, the screenshot is from the lioness questline (I don't remember the names of any characters).

Yeah it's racism. Look at any of those "woke politics destroying games" lists and it's mostly just black women being prominent characters in any way

4 is absolutely not "ehhh", it's in line with every company I worked for lol

In general I find the OP to be very plausible, and I'm not even Amerikkkan
