We made an unspoken promise to the animals we domesticated: If you provide for me and my family, I will ensure your line never fades from this world

It is unethical to abandon that promise, and the extinction of a species may be the single greatest wrong mankind can commit.

Dozens of species go extinct every single day, in large parts due to deforestation for animal agriculture. Acting like keeping a handful of species we eat from extinction is somehow noble is silly by contrast. The concept of a species is a human construct in the first place, individual animals don’t care that their species (which isn’t even natural, we bred them like this) is kept going.

If you compare the health of wild animals to domestically cared for animals, you will obviously see that domesticated animals are healthier and have greater opportunities for enrichment and happiness under human care.

It’s not about if those animals live under animal agriculture or in the wild. The animals in the wild already exist, the ones in captivity wouldn’t exist at all, if we didn’t breed them.

Yes there are vile humans who torture and keep animals in miserable conditions, and they should pay consequences for their cruelties and greed

Don’t you dare paint every farmer with that same corporate battery farm brush.

Most animal meat nowadays comes from factory farms. Worldwide it is roughly 90%, in the US it is 99%.

A live-action or animated adaptation of Worm.

Pump as much money as humanly possible into the JWQS / Clear and Muddy Loss of Love animation they’re currently making.

Straight up entirely remake Borderlands 3.

A Pokemon game like Colosseum & XD, but only going up to Gen 4, I don’t really like the direction the designs went after that.

Fund a proper Pacific Rim sequel.

A high budget Bionicle game would be neat.

And, provided I can pay money for a licence or just buy the original IPs, I’d have my favorite fanfics turned into animated shows as well.

I was with my family celebrating Christmas when this song came on, and I thought it sounded super familiar, so I checked the song recognition on my phone. I had watched the episode it’s from a few days ago :)

Solemates

I enjoyed looking at this on my small screen while listening to something playing on my big screen.

I’m in Bavaria, and my grandparents used to say Erdapfel, though for any generations after that I’ve only ever heard them say Kartoffel.

Reacting to stimuli like the colour of light is irrelevant. My phone camera would fall into the same category, then. A light switch reacts to getting pressed and turns on a light, it’s reacting to a stimulus.

What matters is sentience, which plants cannot possess, since they don’t have a central nervous system. And even if they did, a diet that includes meat takes more plants, since those animals have to be fed plants in order to raise them.

They all make it up as they go along. It’s very similar to religious beliefs in the way it is personal. Each has their own set beliefs on where to draw the line of what is vegan and what is not

The extent to which we are tied to every living thing on Earth means that many vegans have set impossible goals.

Regarding these two, is this any different from human rights? Where people draw the line regarding slave labour, child labour, which type of humans they care about (considering racism, homophobia, trans phobia, ableism etc). I’m sure lots of people have impossible goals regarding human rights, but working to get as close to those as possible is still sensible.

Ok, I’ll plan on reading the light novels then. Seems like it’s pretty long, and I personally adore the premise, so I’m really looking forward to this!

Since you added on a separate recommendation with Wheel of Time, I’ll add one as well and hope it’s not in your >1k books yet: the webnovel called Worm. If you already read it, I’d love to hear your thoughts instead :)

Are you referring to Ascendance of a Bookworm? If so, would you recommend I keep watching the anime whenever a new season comes out, or jump into the manga?

• Need for Speed: Most Wanted

• Slipstream

• Mario Kart DS / Double Dash / Wii

At least make all gacha games R18, no kids should be exposed to this stuff.

Put some lava there. Knowing them, they’re probably digging straight down.

As a bean addict, I must confess that baked beans are my favorite way to consume beans 😔

There’s so much content, even if you don’t play BL3, you’ll have a lot of fun! BL1 and BL2 have a GOTY edition with all the DLC (from memory, between 4 and 6 story DLCs per game, BL2 also has 2 additional characters and a sort of max lvl / extra difficulty mode), and are super cheap at this point. Do wait for a sale if possible, BL1 GOTY Enhanced is frequently 67% off ($10), and BL2 GOTY 80% off ($9)

There’s also The Pre-Sequel, which came out after BL2 and plays between BL1 and BL2. Gameplay is like BL2 with some additions, but it’s not as good as BL2. Still worth playing imo, but the community is split on it. If you play it, even though it plays between BL1 and BL2, it’s intended to be played after BL2.

A lot of the more interesting things regarding character builds & weapons happens in NG+ and NG++, you can spend ages just replaying it and farming bosses & chests in the endgame, and the coop is also really nice (but not at all required). I definitely recommend starting with the first one, and if you do, I think Lilith has by far the most interesting gameplay. In BL2, I think almost every character has fun gameplay, just Axton feels a bit boring to me personally.

Yeah, that last one was sarcastic. They kinda fucked up the story, writing and characters. Villains were ass, writing for most beloved characters was basically a character assassination, Maya & Krieg never even met again, just everything that could go wrong, did go wrong.

Gameplay was great, but I hated everything else so much that I uninstalled after 5h (with close to a thousand hours spread across the rest of the franchise).

A lot of people will disagree, but I loved Star Fox Adventures. It was easily my favorite Star Fox game.

3D Rayman games, the only one I played was Rayman 2, so that’s all I can go off of.

BIONICLE, the game to the movie was a bit janky, but so much fun!

Pokémon Rumble: I remember only liking the first one (didn’t play the second), and really disliking Rumble U. There’s a mobile game now apparently, but…no thanks.

A very obscure one: Onslaught, from the Wii Shop. A first person sci-fi shooter with Wii motion controls, playing on an alien planet with giant bug creatures. Quite reminiscent of Helldivers or Starship Troopers.

Asura’s Wrath: I think a remake would be nice, not sure if there’s much space for a sequel, the ending fit quite nicely.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: I’m gonna count this as its own franchise separate from the other Xenoblade games, and a remaster, remake or sequel would be amazing.

Bonus: Borderlands 2 had a good setup for a sequel, an incredible villain and such great characters. I’d love to see where they’d take their stories, like Maya & Krieg. Should be about time for Borderlands 3, I’m sure it’d be great! (FUCK WHYYYYY)

Spectrobes had such a unique feel to it.

I didn’t play the one on the Wii, but from what I’ve seen, I think I’d prefer a mix of all 3 games. I feel like the combat had slightly more depth on the DS games, but Origins did more in 3 dimensions and had a Spectrobe follow you in the overworld.

Yes please. I personally preferred the slower PvP of the first game, but the campaign we got in Titanfall 2 was incredible. Really with they would revisit that franchise.
