Just a quick reminder, difficult to peel price labels on things often peel easier after being warmed with a hairdryer. (Don't try this on chocolate or candles obviously)
But on things like ceramics and glass it's often better and quicker than trying to soak them off.

Happy John Mastodon Day to those that celebrate 🥂

An example of how incredibly hard it is to buy the 'right' thing.

The popular #vegan brands Alpro, Provamel and Soya Soleil are owned by French multinational Groupe Danone. Group Danone has a 24.4% share in the global fresh dairy industry, so when we buy Alpro we’re actually funding one of the world’s largest dairy producers.

I'm not vegan, but it's like this for everything, you buy a product because of one thing and it affects another. I don't know the answer. Living is really hard. Which is why a lot of people just don't bother to worry about any of it. Is there any point to small changes by one person?

Don't make me tap the sign.

Imagine you are on the phone, you see a hilarious visual joke online and want to share it, or a picture of a view in a country you want to visit, or a lovely flower, think about how you would tell the person on the other end of the line...that's it, that's your alt text

@aral he's retired. Or did you mean from a canon?

Welsh doctor stands by claim female surgeons who experienced sexual abuse should toughen up.

"Medicine is not alone in having a culture of bullying, sexual abuse verbal or otherwise, and banter that’s in bad taste."

Well that's ok then. I'm glad he's cleared that up for us silly girls.

@Secstodon @doot yes, many people are not pretending it doesn't exist, or purposely ignoring it, they really don't see it so until told , they don't realise. Of course denying it when you are told is ridiculous, I have no time for that!

The English Chess Federation (ECF) has said it won’t be a pawn in the International Chess Federation’s anti-trans game and will continue to welcome all players.

The effect of not using cw is that I mute accounts that don't use them and turn off your boosts if you boost them. I'm not alone. So ultimately I see nothing from those accounts even cool stuff.
Using cw means more people see your toots not fewer
