Nothing too surprising, but nice nonetheless. Cool

What kind of possibilities?

I’m going to assume they’re not British…

They gonna do that for steaks as well?

I’m going to repeat Ursula K Le Guin and Margaret Atwood because it’s hard to overstate how much of everything is in their works. Iain (M) Banks I’ll also echo, but will add China Miéville because there aren’t enough anarchists in this thread.

I think it’s valid to bring up gaslighting here since the poster they’re replying to is implying that we shouldn’t believe women are victims as much as they are. It’s pretty much a guarantee that everyone will know a woman who has been subject to sexual assault in their life.

I suppose at least vegan cheese is getting much better

Kinda have to when you can’t cheat by adding butter, cheese or bacon to everything.
