Not something I was familiar with but ok, that’s good?

Feel free to swap it with casual neglect of pets then? That’s something I see from all sorts of people in my area.

But dog breeders are fine and good.

Frame it from the perspective of the american liberal. Dog breeders are good because I get a pretty puppy. Dog farms are bad because it’s what savages eat, dogs are pets.

Actually, many evangelicals believe this is part of God’s plan.

I do agree that abandonment is cringe.

On their own journey, I’d be wary of introducing my own biases.

I feel that easily could’ve been excluded from the comic either for the author’s narrative, or simply to keep it a 3 panel. Could also just be alone time to process.

Sharing your beliefs with family is pretty common. Would you not want your relatives to reflect the way you see the world?

Just because it’s going against the generational direction doesn’t make it somehow wrong.

Nor is making a relative upset necessarily wrong.

Now, freed from the expectations, worldview, and belief systems of a religion, she is able to choose her own way of living?

I don’t really see how this is a negative. Religion gives easy, comforting, often bullshit answers to difficult questions. Who are you supposed to be? What’s the right thing to do? How should you treat others? What happens after I die?

Honestly I initially interpreted the comic as a joke about the dichotomy of how the son would feel good about it but it’s a lot of emotional processing for the mother.

Pretty sure deisel raccoon is an S tier shitbag

That and we repeatedly tried negotiating with Japan before nuking them, then tried negotiating before doing it again.

Wasting breath on their hypocrisy is the point of it. As is wasting breath on all the small stupid shit they do constantly. Ignore it. Focus on what actually is happening and what actually does matter.

Here I was hoping leaving the States would free me from SAP

You say this, but the people yelling and screaming are typically the ones that are pushing for progress, while the people that hide behind “decorum” are the ones trying to strip people of their rights and funnel money into capital.

Also, human beings are animals…

Man, if only Harris had done something to win the anti-genocide vote. like, Iunno? Campaign against genocide? Promise to stop America’s funding? Write a strongly worded public letter about it?

They might. Sexuality is a spectrum.

Tipping is optional but in the US many tipped employees are making $2.35/hr. They’re paid a minimum of min wage after tips, but their tips first have to cover them to minwage

He isn’t considering it. He’s already made the decision

What is the relation between someone speeding in their car and a professor using a bad set of course materials?

Your analogy doesn’t really establish any causal or relational links. Both subjects are victims of America’s capital-dominated power structure?

Sure better decisions can be made, but how much can you blame the subject under duress? How much blood can you reasonably expect the parent or teacher to draw from the stone? At what cost of their health?

In my experience professors are heavily overworked and heavily underpaid. Offloading work onto other systems to get a better work-life balance seems like a natural response.

Lmao. What an unbelievably stupid rule. “Just pretend everyone is cool even if they’re a total loser or whatever”
