Yes, but someone worrying about property tax increasing so they might have to take economy instead of business class on their annual Bahamas holiday, is not the same kind of worrying as:
“Oh fuck if Trump cuts this program then I’ll have no choice but to crash at a friend’s place or live in my car”.
I suck on calcium tablets like a reptile because I have early stage osteoporosis.

We must boycott both Israel and China.

FundMECFS@slrpnk.netto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Moderator bans users from downvoting posts that promote a dangerous diet0·4 months agoI mean I get it’s annoying. I also think “carnivore diet” is just a dumb grift like “raw milk” or whatever. But I don’t think you have a right to complain here. Someone created a community for people following this diet, it’s obvious they will ban anyone like you who is vocally opposed to the diet.

They are extremely sensitive to all sorts of things in the water. Keeping them well is very difficult. Although I would imagine if there are big but gradual changes in water environment, they would have a chance of adapting faster due to short life cycles and the fact that mating creates hundreds of thousands of eggs.
FundMECFS@slrpnk.netto science@lemmy.world•Which animal will replace humans as Earth's dominant species? This scientist has an ideaEnglish781·4 months agoBut they
- Have extremely short lifespan so a limited capacity to learn (1-2 years)
- Don’t raise their offspring, in fact after mating/laying eggs they naturally die, so no knowledge sharing
- Are extremely solitary and don’t have social bonds or do anything socially, so little communication/passing of knowledge
not worry about money [to meet basic needs].
Everyone worries about money. But for an upper middle class person they’ll be worrying if they can afford to send their daughter to a private university or to afford an expensive trip — that’s not worrying about basic needs.
