  • I think it’s generally a culture thing; you don’t eat your beasts of burden (oxen, horses, etc) and you don’t eat your animaux de compagnie. Not just because they’re useful and you would more than likely have a connection to them, but generally speaking, these are very lean animals, barely any fat on them, plus the fact that unless you know what you’re doing and make the slaughtering of your animal quick and painless, endocrines get released into the muscle tissue, making the meat bitter.











  • Remember the CRAAP test, everyone:

    Currency (Is this information current? If not when was it updated?)

    Relevance (Does it make sense to the topic you’re working on? Does it not?)

    Authority (Who wrote this article? What are their qualifications?)

    Accuracy (Is this information accurate? Can you cross-reference with other articles or papers?)

    Purpose (What was the author’s purpose in writing this? Were they paid to write this piece?)

  • I’ve noticed this on my TV’s YouTube app as well. It went from 15 second I shippable ads, to 2 ads where I need to watch at least one and only then can I skip, to sometimes at least 30 seconds before I can skip. It’s worse on the longer video essays that I like watching, where they say “Fewer ad breaks for this long video”, but in reality they have the same amount of ads that you need to watch more of to skip. I absolutely fucking hate it :D
