it feels like a complaint but idk~~ hope it's not~~~ i kind of worry me telling anybody about anything is a complaint somehow~~
but saw something on a local PBS channel that I don't understand~~
are so many people into being the omnivores we think we are; to find lampooning a swordfish being hideously barbaric, watching it die in the boat with it's blood everywhere, and then throwing it on ice to be sent to local restaurants.... they think it's absolutely barbaric~~
I forget the word they used, disgusting/disturbing or something of the sort, it was yesterday and I don't remember~~
and at the same time EATING AND ENJOYING IT ANYWAY~~
I don't understand~~ you see that, are revolted by it, yet eat it anyway?
a little light doesn't click on in your head and goes "we aren't supposed to be killing and eating animals if we are disgusted/disturbed by it?"
true omnivores would see a feast of that fish~~ or any slaughterhouse really~~~ and yet humans are so disgusted/disturbed by it that we hide them from plain sight and make the act of slaughter hidden from view~~
if people are so disturbed by seeing their food be produced; then why and how can we see it as food to begin with?
I've been vegetarian so long that I no longer see meat as a viable food source and get genuinely confused when other people actually do, despite the slaughter and bloodshed witnessed....
like how can you still eat it and not be turned off by it? there are more compassionate ways of eating that don't involve taking the sentient life of another being~~
also unrelated thing that makes me feel really old for saying it to begin with; my 24 hour news station had inexplicably been replaced with another instance of a 24 hour shopping channel, and I don't understand... it is the exact same as the one a channel over..... ???
BRING MY 24 HOUR NEWS CHANNEL BACK DARN IT~~~!! WE DON'T NEED 2 OF THE SAME EXACT SHOPPING CHANNEL ON LOCAL TV~~~ I DON'T CARE~~~ I JUST WANT MY NEWS STATION

Taking teen skk to missions abroad must have been horrible. The world is their playground no matter where they are. They're never in their hotel rooms, they run down the hallways knocking on every door, Dazai keeps pushing people into the pool and Chuuya goes to the spa four times a day. They go missing for two days and come back in different clothes, Chuuya has a buzz cut, Dazai has a cat that looks like it fought three wars and a half, and with them is a foreign man who promises Mori he doesn't care if Mori has three children and receding hairline, he has seen his picture and has fallen in love with him ("Dazai kun who is this guy" "We found you a husband" "I don't need one" "Yes you do")

Voyager 2 just got another 3-year extension on its array of scientific instruments! The folks at NASA figured out a way to keep the space probe's power supply going for a bit longer so they can gather more data on space beyond the heliosphere and the influence of our Sun. Not bad at all for a spacecraft launched back in 1977 whose original mission only lasted for four years!

Thank you for the heads up about Univision spreading misinformation and lies. It’s so frustrating because my mother gets most of her news from these stations and I always have to make sure that she understands what’s really happening but so many co-workers of hers and neighbors are also misinformed
Yes. It's terrible. There have been multiple times in the past week where they aired information that had already been proven false (the 40 beheaded babies claim and now that phone call between 'hamas' militants' that other journalists said was clearly faked).
They are taking everything the Israeli military is saying at face value and this Sunday Jorge Ramos spent an hour exclusively interviewing Israeli civilians without taking the Palestinian perspective into consideration.
Univision in general is extremely biased and dare I say right wing. It's especially dangerous because the network has a monopoly on Spanish language media in the U.S. (tbf, Telemundo does too). They singlehandedly influence the opinions of millions upon millions of Spanish speakers, many of whom are immigrants, people of color, and colonized people.

Digital Video Recorder Your Satellite Tv
If you are certainly a going to surely proud owner of a real LCD TV soon (or have already purchased one), the following best thing you should do is to buy a LCD TV wall-mounted for it.
But what can parents do today prevent this from happening? Turn off the television! By limiting the time which your teen spends in the front of the tv is the first task. Take your son or daughter to a park, play a game with them, or simply have them play with all the millions of toys that bought all of sony 80 inch tv them. To prevent your child from being a mindless drone it in fact limiting their time put in front belonging to the television.
The same should be true for commercials. I only say this because when we were watching a show that's appropriate for everything of our children, quite often, an ad would appear that hasn't been.
Start off with, a smart tv will over a moment of time become a "not so smart" Videos. Basically, the technology of smart tv is always changing. The Smart TV hardware can't changed to keep in pace with improvements and updates to the ever changing software.
They canceled this show and yet they allowed evil crap like Gilmore Girls to choke off intelligent suggestion. This proves one thing- there exists no Our god. This "Muppets a dirty world of show biz" was simply not PC enough, maybe television guys take care of the lowest form of life, maybe the new owners (Disney) wanted more wholesome kiddy fare-whatever the reason, we lost the funniest puppets since Kermit the Frog got drunk in the Emmys.
The best thing about this LG 47LW6500 is its very functional Home Dash board. With this product, you'll be able to look for various internet applications, integrate it in addition to your PC, and employ various game and video apps. In addition, it comes with very useful accessories regarding a magic remote control and 3D glasses. Furthermore, it presents a very stylish and very sleek shape softlogic tv .
A big thing is the sun. Glare is a really rotten thing to along with. It makes the pictures on the television look darker and should you be watching a movie, it's easy to miss from little stuff you can't uncover. It's quite annoying. To be able to choose where to put the television, hear the pattern of sunlight. It is in order to be shine in your window and parts of your room will be brighter and other parts possibly be in the shade. You also want to take in mind that when compared to the seasons change, so does the position of sunlight. Basically you want to choose the vicinity that is certainly to obtain the least regarding light. That means that you might be going discover is the sunlight from the tv.
After the installation process is done, you have to make confident that the cable works correctly while the technician will still be in household. When the cable faces the problem, the technician will help you to get rid of it.
