I love how humans try their hardest to cut down on the amount of destruction they cause only for other humans to villainize and tear them down at every turn.

I've been watching the tech to make actual meat from cell lines emerge with some optimism- it promises to make it possible for us to have meat in our diets without all the greenhouse gases and feedlots and the like- but it also threatens to consolidate the protein industry into even fewer corporate hands if it's not well-regulated.

The meat industry is honestly pretty awful (environmentally, politically, ethically, etc.) and I find myself rooting for the plucky young frankenmonsters that might come along and knock them down even though I'm pretty sure they'll be worse if they're not well regulated from the start.

I like meat too, but this is silly. Just had roast chicken yesterday. I also have a freezer with two door shelves lined with tubes of Impossible Sausage. It's a pretty damn good "sausage", and without those hard/random bits of gristle you'll encounter with the real thing. Think there's some Quorn chicken nuggets in there too. Just buy as you like.

And soy was a lovely mitigator for menopausal hot flashes. Dosed myself with soy on the daily for those weeks, no flashes (awful random surges of heat, head to toes, such that you sweat into your hair, behind your knees, awful.) Miss a day, hot flashes. Although, when you think on it, this fits with Florida, really. Fuck women's health, amiright?

Is the hot flash thing because of the phytoestrogen? Pretty cool.

So, it's a race to heart disease against the environmental clock that's working hard to turn the whole state into Shatlantis, part duh?

No. Not impossible burgers and the like. Just lab grown beef and the like

Not long until they ban Linux!

Found one of the Lemmy people whose identity is "Linux"

It really is the socialist devil's OS.

The alternative woke furry nerds love it.

I wanna get one of those cigarette boats and smuggle abortion pills and alternative meat into Florida and trans people out.

It'll be black with a red racing stripe and a spoiler like the A Team van and I'll name it the Baracus.

The fun part is the coast guard won't care.
