  • Pet food. I have done a lot of research into the pet industry in general and there are a lot of things being sold for pets that are literally unsafe for them. Like cages that are too small, treats that aren’t safe for them, chew toys full of toxic shit they shouldn’t invest, food that is the equivalent of McDonald’s every day, etc

    Don’t get me wrong, there’s good quality pet food you can get fairly cheap and bad quality pet food you can get that is very expensive. It comes down to research. But if you’re just grabbing whatever is cheapest is most likely setting you up for potential health issues down the line.

    This is speaking as someone who has experienced this with both cats and rabbits. The cheapest food for rabbits is usually full of alfalfa and whatever else weird ass colorful shit they threw in there that is not healthy for adult rabbits. And cat food is usually too high in carbs, too high in salt, or both. Diabetes and kidney failure in cats fucking sucks, it’s not worth it.




  • Pride makes money. Companies make money off pride merch and it costs them $0 to be inclusive of LGBT+ people.

    But god forbid they do anything beneficial if it doesn’t make them money or gasp cost money. That’s why they actively find new ways to discriminate against disabled people without it being too obvious so they can skirt the law. Plenty of disabled people can do just as good or better at a job than an able bodied person with accommodations, but you’re immediately a threat to a company if you request those accommodations. And then of course, just like anti union propaganda, the general public gets told that disabled people are greedy moochers that need to fuck off out of society.

    I worked for a company that is vehemently anti WFH. They had everyone working remotely for all of COVID no problem. But now if a disabled person requests WFH as an accommodation they are told it is “not reasonable” and it is denied. It’s very easy to get away with discrimination against disabled people because a lot of us are just trying to get through the day. Sitting in a court room to fight a company that will extend the lawsuit as long as possible sounds like my own personal nightmare. Hell, speaking of court even FUCKING JURY DUTY won’t accommodate a lot of disabled people. That’s literally the government and they don’t give a fuck. I speak from experience.

    Like most things, the answer is money. They want able bodied workers they can make money off the back of for the minimum amount possible.

    Sorry this turned into a rant lmao
