Captain America and Falcon V1 #4, written by Christopher Priest
I once heard someone say "even the plants aren't free under capitalism" and it fucked me up ngl
curious question, if it's alright - does 'anti-cap' (referring to your tag on it + seaworld) specifically mean anti-captivity for cetaceans only, or is it a term for being against animals in captivity as a whole, including zoos and sanctuaries? asking because i've never heard the term before and i'm curious.
my stance personally is pro-zoos/pro-(accredited) sanctuaries, but anti keeping cetaceans in captivity given our current inability to provide adequate welfare (as far as i know). if we were to invent conditions that would allow cetaceans to lead healthy and fulfilling lives in captivity, i'd change my mind on the basis of it being a great boon to conservation efforts of marine life. but again, until that's proven, i'm against it.
feel free to delete if you're uncomfortable answering. thank you!
I've usually heard it used in the context of cetaceans, but occasionally in the context of other types of animals. Doesn't really matter though, because the truth is, it's not as simple as one or two easy labels.
You've got to be really careful with "accredited zoos." Just because a facility is accredited doesn't mean it's doing right by its animals, or by all its animals. Loro Parque is humane certified despite all its issues; Georgia Aquarium is accredited despite attempting to import wild caught belugas just a few years ago. Copenhagen Zoo is accredited in spite of its policy of allowing animals to breed freely, then slaughtering the extras. The zoo where I grew up has some excellent exhibits and breeding programs, but their gorilla enclosure is downright shameful.
We'll probably never be able to invent conditions that allow cetaceans to lead the lives they deserve in captivity; they're just too built for their environment, too wide-ranging, and their social structures are too complex. It's comforting to us to think that if things get dicey, we can round up an animal and breed it in captivity, but as we saw with the vaquita, that doesn't work with cetaceans. The only way to protect them is to protect the ocean.
There are zoos and sanctuaries worth supporting, but it's really got to be a case-by-case and a species-by-species type of deal. No one, whether it's the people visiting a facility or running it, should ever stop asking whether this is right, whether things could be better.

one of the best things about the wga & sag-aftra strikes is the publicisation of worker relations. like we should ALL be talking about how we get treated at work, our experiences at work, our contracts and how they are fair or unfair. it's just GOOD because if we talk about it we can understand that there is class solidarity in the experiences at work!

I have seen a lot of people say that they want to stop playing D&D because of the money grabbing fuckery commited by Wizards of the Coast, concerning the changes made to the open gaming license. This makes me sad. I see a big corporation stealing joy from a community that I have loved, and that has changed my life for the better. DO NOT LET THEM. Keep playing the game. It is your game, not theirs, do not let them take it from you.If you have the books, keep them, keep using them. Burning them is stupid, it is a waste, it is meaningles protest. Please do unsubscribe from D&D Beyond, that is meaningful, do not buy anymore Wizard produced content, that too is meaningful. And if you are need some books, a lot of them are out there as PDFs, which of course you should not download illegaly. In fact, if you PM me, i will tell you to not get pirated PDFs of the core rule books, and even point out which links contain such illegal copies, so that you may avoid them.
if you've never worked a minimum wage/physical labor/retail job then sorry not sorry i don't trust whatever you have to say ever. one blue-collar worker is worth five of you fuckers writing circle jerk "think pieces" about how badly you wanna get cucked by the ghost of karl marx.
"well i'd reckon it's a bit fucked up we don't even get paid as much as them people sitting in a chair all day when we sweat balls out here innit?"
you'd reckon exactly fucking right malcom
