I’m not vegetarian/vegan, but I am starting to try and not use honey when there is a good alternative (agave is my current go to). While bees are great and all, our use of non-native pollinators is actually bad. Most ecosystems have their own, natural pollinators, and bringing in outside pollinators can out compete…

For the most part, “Karens” are defined as racist white women who weaponize the police against Black people

Everyone knows what an Ubisoft game is supposed to be and the design simply isn’t there yet

I was at Costco the other day and a group of two families decided to have a goddamn reunion right in the middle of one of the main front-back aisles.
