Breeders will always exist, and so will their customers, as they always have. If it's only financially viable for breeders to be held accountable for their actions, that's another way of keeping dogs out of shelters. I'd rather live in a world where breeders always adopt their dogs back, always ensure they find a home instead of overwhelming shelters, charities and communities work together to make owning dogs more affordable so they don't get relinquished during financial stress, AND shelters exist. In a world where shelters are the only hope for dogs, dogs are left behind.

Nobody posted any slogans until you did. It's perfectly reasonable to reply with civilized discourse.

Unilaterally proposing a single solution to a complex societal issue while insulting dog owners is problematic and does more harm than good. "Adopt and shop responsibly" doesn't offend anyone who bought a dog and might make someone ask, "What does it mean to shop responsibly?" instead of buying a dog on Craigslist. Dogs deserve more respect from people, which requires treating all people with more respect.

"Adopt, don't shop" can lead to more animal abuse. It doesn't teach anyone about what a responsible breeder is if they are determined to buy, nor does it educate people on how to find a responsible shelter. Responsible breeders ensure none of the dogs go to a shelter. The message is disrespectful to responsible breeders and owners, and does nothing but alienate people who have had a dog or work to improve their health.

Please say Adopt and shop responsibly instead.

This is so interesting. I'd like to see more intelligent, well-researched perspectives on exploring what is really behind the mental health epidemic and what the actual impact of social media is.

I feel like some part of me knew this, but I acknowledge that I have the urge to think, "Kids with mental health issues are on social media; therefore, taking away social media will solve mental health problems."

These narratives are seductive because you can blame your or your kid's problems on social media instead of looking inwards and doing the more difficult and complex work of changing yourself.

Thanks for this. So I have to pay if I want to download this and click the hyperlinks?

Anyone have a copy of this? Why would he post on this site if he wants his message to be read with links intact?

Agreed.

"Prequel armor" is like super plot armor because you know the character will never die. At least with plot armor you might wonder if it will eventually get removed.

I'm never worried for them when Galadriel or Elrond are on screen because I know they'll be just fine and live happily ever after.

I feel the same for Spock in strange new worlds.

Where are you that National Parks are so inaccessible for you?

I'm not doubting, I have no perspective on this because I'm from Calgary where I go to them on a near weekly basis and it's cheaper to go to them than anywhere else.

Funny thing is, very few Calgarians get to go to these places not everyone has a car and options for transit to Banff and Waterton is extremely limiting. It's definitely a middle/upper class thing

Immich is not stable yet. But as soon as it is, I'm using it to replace all of my galleries.

It doesn't use OCR but it uses CLIP which accidentally unreliably does tag text like you would want once the images are server side.

There is discussion on GitHub about adding OCR so I imagine sometime after a stable it could be a feature.

Immich appears to have the most active development of all the FOSS gallery and backup apps.

So don't use it now, but keep an eye on it for the future.

Too many cooks is the best wrong answer. Must resisted watching this again.

I'm just guessing here.

But it could be possible to put the doorbell and camera system in its own network that's only accessible via the local network. If you make a VPN to the local network, only the person with credentials could VPN into the camera network from outside.

I'm a noob at this though, so I'd need a guide.

I liked solar eye care in the southwest Costco (Tsuut'ina).

Their prices for seniors or children are really good and I'd especially find them cheapersr if I went every year (75 per year instead of 150). They seem well equipped and behave professionally and I've never been upsold to expensive glasses.

In the comments she gave a coupon code for Aki fine foods.

"ALSO: Please use code BuyCanadian20 for 20% off your next order as a special thank you."

Their gratitude alone is so sweet. I'm so happy this dark time can undo some damage from covid.

Oh my gosh, I don't think info like this is found anywhere on the internet, thank you.

I wasn't worried for the cat, maybe the fact that they could control a boat made it seem like plot armor.

I was surprised about the other thing though.

Flow is very relaxing to watch.

It's part of its beauty is that there is no speech and the takes are really long with smooth and slow camera movements. I think it doesn't take a lot of processing to watch.

My dog watches this movie in silence, I've seen this movie once. He's seen it 3 times 😅

I remember reading a study from decades ago stating that electric toothbrushes are only more effective if you are a drinker. The impression it gave was that even while drunk the electric actuation made up for sloppily doing your teeth 😅.

I think I've been using an electric toothbrush for so long that I'm not good at using a manual anymore.

I also discovered that I press too hard and the electric toothbrushes that warn me when I apply too much pressure has been helpful in preventing gum recession from over brushing.

My dental health had also been improved by a portable waterpik. I add a little bit of mouth wash to it so the machine doesn't fill with mould. I still floss every time, but the waterpik gets out food I'd never get out otherwise. I struggled with bleeding gums before that.

I really like it. I doubt it's better than fluoride for caries prevention, just the same. But I do think it's better than Sensodyne for reducing temperature sensitivity.

My anecdotal theory is that HPA must fill in micro gaps like Sensodyne to reduce sensitivity without yellowing my teeth.

The HPA toothpastes also typically don't have SLS or as many irritating Ingredients like mint. I have fun flavours like orange, clove, or cinnamon. Mint is highly irritating, and I have noticed that since removing minty pastes, my lips don't dry as much, and I need less lip chap. My gums and cheeks are less irritated too. It almost feels like a conspiracy that most brand-name toothpastes contain something as irritating as mint just to sell more lip chap.

Lots of HPA toothpastes also use xylitol. Which can make the bacteria in your mouth lose the ability to create acids and adhere to your teeth over time. Your mouth stays cleaner longer and is less likely to feel "fuzzy".

So I think the HPA toothpastes are more improved by what they don't have, irritants, and use more modern ingredients than traditional toothpastes. For me it results in teeth that stay cleaner and smooth longer, fun flavours, low irritation and reducing sensitivity.

I've tried Remin, David's, and a few others I can't remember.

Hey I can see people interpreting it that way. Like binging on social media, except this isn't addicting so you just get fed then live on with your life.

I do think pixelfed.ca sounds more organic.
