      I dunno. McDs was mine and my spouse’s first date, after church.

      We are married 27 years now…

        I’m barely older than you’re marriage but McDonald’s was a very different vibe when I was a kid. I still wouldn’t say anything to shame people going to McDonald’s for a first date today.

      My first date with my girlfriend was at a Wendy’s and we took the bus to get there. That was 2005. We got married in 2009 and just celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. It doesn’t matter where you go or how much you spend, it just matters who you’re there with.

      If your first date is a glorious scam heist, the future looks promising

      Maybe don’t order carnist options though

        Nuggies are breaded, not just meat, so this is omnivorous not carnist.

          Carnism

          Ideology that supports the use and consumption of animal products.


          Things can have several properties, for example a thing can be red, which doesn’t mean the thing is not a cube.

          Was their comment one of those ‘self-identifying without being asked’ moments? Certainly feels stereotypical to me. But, it couldn’t be that obvious.

              The animals have no rights and no liberty.

              Why?

              Evolutionary niche

              On the one hand, the breeding of animals dependent on humans destroys evolutionary niches for animals independent from humans, on the other hand, humans destroy evolutionary niches directly.

              Farmers won’t release or breed animals to improve their evolutionary niche, because farmers and consumers don’t farm animals for conservatory reasons.

              That’s not entirely true because there are expectations depending on the jurisdiction on the standard of care for animals, in several countries they’re legally seen as sentient beings not property.

              Putting them in filthy crowded slaughter houses where they’re kicked and shoved only to be slaughtered as children relative to their life spans is not doing them favour. It is our responsibility to stop exploiting them.
