  • Reading your take on Squall is hilarious because I experienced the same thing. As a kid he was the coolest thing ever. Replayed the game as an adult and was like ??? This guy can kick rocks with the way he treats people lol. There is one conversation (on Balamb Garden, I think) where some older person is telling him they remind him of their son or something similar, and he straight up tunes them out as they are talking with his thoughts relaying how little he cares lol.




  • Who would downvote this lol? No kids, but also fully am tired of the us vs them mentality with cf versus childed. In today’s world there is usually a much greater sacrifice to have kids and to be able to afford or have a community to have date nights and such, but having children is still an adventure that many parents enjoy. You probably hear a lot from the complainers, though. Similar to married guys who sigh and call their wives the old woman… the happily married are silent af usually.










  • Gotcha. I was vegetarian for many years, so I get it. Cooking chicken actually smelled like heated roadkill to me, I had to leave the room.

    I felt healthier without eating meat, actually. Now that I am back to eating meat, I respect where it comes from and intend to use every part of my harvests (having a dog helps too). I believe I owe it to the animal to acknowledge where what is on my plate comes from and to be as humane as possible.




  • Sure! There are the cattle I mentioned in my post which are genetically distinct (if a bit inbred now after generations on the island), a story of a domestic cow escaping in Poland to live in the Bialowieza Forest among wild bison, the feral cattle in Australia which are descendants of domesticated herds, Chirikof island cattle in Alaska which live on only grass, etc. There may be some good videos online which also cover the topic. I do believe a lot of successful feral cattle likely come from beef lines, however. I don’t see dairy cattle being quite so successful considering how extremely we’ve bred them, but I could be wrong.
