While I don't like PETA either, Cass, you should be aware that the site you linked is run by a front-group for the restaurant industry called the Center For Consumer Freedom.
Point is, when I saw Jake Shield's face on one of those PETA posters
Our imaginary love could no longer be
Since I haven't been able to find a new imaginary boyfriend we are imaginary friends-with-benefits, but I kick him out of bed and never make him breakfast. It's very cold.
I just dumped all of my Wheel of Time books in a bag. TOR had such shitty binding that I had had to buy a couple of books over again, so there's like $250 of books in there. But... they're going to a good home, and I can't haul them around a bunch, and honestly they were too big a part of my teenagerhood to be able to read them for fun now.
Alright, that all sounds pretty bad, but that bolded line seems like a stance most of this forum would take. I wouldn't, but I don't particularly dig animals. But a lot of the folk here seem to.
I think even if you don't believe in animal testing, you would probably turn your stomach when you see the people yelling about how animal testing is murder turn around and kill 94% of its adoptable animals in one year.
Sure, though their hypocrisy is irrelevant to the issue of whether or not animal testing is bad. I'm just surprised to see it on a list of why PETA is bad composed here of all places.

When someone says "You know what I'm saying?" or "You know what I mean" as filler.
Cause often they'll be talking about something personal that I don't know what they mean, or just complete gibberish and no, I will not know what they are saying.

My home right? That's still happening?
No, I promised them to you but then I turned around and said I'd give them to someone I liked more and I decided to do that while you were in [chat] and then I laughed and laughed and laughed.
No! They're going to you. Are you doing DH tomorrow?
They demonstrate that extremists change the dialog, and get things done.
Yup. They changed it from "You support animal rights? That's cool, I love animals too!" to "You support animal rights? You're not one of those PETA freaks, are you?"

I want to call up this columbian chick I met a few nights ago, but I ain't got no money. Le sigh.
invite her to a show. one where ou don't look terrified.
That's a good idea. But hopefully I'll train at my new job tomorrow and I'll start having some extra spending cash, and then pick up another night or two at another bar.
And hopefully both of those will be off the books so I can still get unemployment!
Also, I'm making chicken thighs for dinner that I'm marinating in soy, squeezed orange juice, garlic, sugar, and sliced jalapenos. What should I make with it? I'm thinking roasted asparagus with a poached egg. Maybe a potato too?

I didn't even know we were doing Dark Heresy tomorrow at three until I was having a breakdown this morning and I was like GOD MAYBE I SHOULD GO TO THE HOSPITAL I JUST WANT TO DIE

Animal testing is the source of medical science. We would know almost literally nothing that we do today if it weren't for extensive animal testing.
I don't think anyone who knows anything about how science works would support an end to animal testing.

Well that's just not true.
We'd probably test stuff on people if we didn't have animals.

and Choco was like
Yeah but can you make Dark Heresy?
This is basically a win-win situation, you can get all the dying out of your system by dying violently in Dark Heresy.
PETA is such a terrible organization. There are so many worthwhile animal causes. Everything from Humane Society to Doris Day to wild mustang rescue to feral cat spay/neuter folks.
PETA is just awful. It's incredibly unfortunate that their notoriety consumes 99% of the attention paid to the subject.

Oh, this is probably my favourite image on the internet. It gets me every time.
is true that PETA has connections to "eco terrorists"?
I bet eco-terrorists get made fun of at terrorism parties.
Anyway, I don't support the commercial pet industry or the meat industry, but I still think PETA's a bunch of shit-heads that alienates more people than it converts.
I also don't have well-informed feelings about animal testing, but I do think think that animal rights should at least be a consideration when it comes to animal testing. I'd have to look at existing regulations to know whether or not that consideration has been granted, though.

Nazis wouldn't do to Jews what we do to animals in labs.
Additionally, there's an enormous portion of science that relies upon the fact that we can use animals that have different, rather than similar morphology to ourselves. The size, easiness to keep, and life span of mice is crucial to the pace of our advancements.
I seriously could not possibly imagine a world in which we could have any of the advancements we've made in biological and medical science without animal testing. It is inconceivable to me.

I'm... a bit of an imaginary whore.
This isn't really true though.
They as a group have done more for animal rights then the entire collective of apathetic vegitariens who keep it to themselves ever have.

it was a wonderful song

I dont' even want it but if I leave it in the tray my dad will eat it.
And last time we got apple turnovers I had NONE because my dad ate them all
So I am choking down this fucking turnover if it kills me
Yeah, I can make it for 3.
With 16-pixel tiles, 1 pixel per update is too slow. 2 pixels per update is obviously twice as fast... and too fast.
So yeah, delta-time checks so I can set speed per second instead of speed per update.

Stole some Minecraft textures for prototyping purposes. The map now scrolls so it follows the player, and the gems waggle back and forth.

I also keep on pausing cause they're making me anxious. I really dislike poisonous things.
