No, it’s LEGO bricks. LEGO is the brand name. If you want to be pedantic AND correct, you should be referring to them as “LEGO Brand construction bricks”, though if you’re referring to a boxed set, it’s “LEGO brand construction brick playset”.

Or you could just not be douchey about it. Either way there is no connection to dice/die.

I didn’t become vegan because i didn’t like the taste or the experience. I did because I could no longer handle contributing to animal cruelty every time i need to feed myself (or clothes, or so many other things). It’s a moral decision, not a culinary adventure.

Prior to becoming vegan i said the same thing you are saying in this post. I’m gonna tell you the same thing i would tell my younger self: go fuck yourself, i’ll be vegan however i want. Why the fuck are you judging how i’m doing so? What the absolute shit does it matter whether you “understand” why i eat what i eat? I do eat a lot of those cuisines, but i do also eat vegan meat replacements, because sometimes i just feel like a burger, and vegan food science has been getting better and better over the last few decades.

Plus, all of those traditional recipes and exotic veggies are available to you too. You can eat them even if you’re not vegan. Hell, you can even add meat to them if you want. Many of them are made traditionally both with and without meat. But no, you pick a hot dog too?

We should subtract from the military’s budget anything they can’t explain on an audit.

Also, another point here: In the rules you'll find a long list of content warnings. The title rule serves to make sure anyone who wants to avoid any type of post can do so without having to look at the content.

Anything you might want to put in a title, instead off egg_emojis_irl, you can put in the description underneath your meme. still get to say what you want to say, but it's all post-click, and not just appearing on someone's feed.

So here’s the thing. The whole west coast of NA, including california, oregon, washington, and BC are considered to be super liberal areas. This is true by a majority of the population, but all of these regions are still filled with people who are as conservative as any other rural area in the US. It’s just that in those regions, more people populate the large cities than the rural areas.

Really, conservatism reigns in poorer, less educated, and more isolated regions with low population and without diversity, where tribalism can run rampant; it’s easy to be a racist shitbag if you barely meet anyone with a different skin color than you. Liberalism thrives in regions with diverse populations where in order to live we have to cooperate with others.

I live in Portland, Oregon. People tend to think oregon is a blue state wonderland (except during covid and the floyd protests. then apparently the whole city was on fire and in a state of complete anarchy; spoiler— it totally wasn’t). That’s not the case. We just have enough people in large cities to outnumber the racist cuntballoons in the rural areas. And that’s what the whole west coast is like (and basically every “blue state” in the US)

Western Canada is a lot like western USA. Filled with shart-gargling racists/homophobes/transphobes, but outnumbered by people who aren’t pieces of shit.

west coast (and especially PNW) culture is just “we kinda outnumber them slightly”, but the overall issue comes down to: in rural/conservative areas, it’s easy to be racist/homophobic/transphobic/other-religions-phobic, because you never have to consider anyone’s feelings that hurt your worldview because you don’t know them personally and do not consider them to be human on the same level as you.

You don’t understand. See, corporations now enjoy all the same rights as an individual, but you can’t put a company in prison, that doesn’t even make sense. so instead we just fine them a small amount they won’t even notice in their books, and then we can call them “punished”, and still tax their ever-increasing profits. everybody who matters wins and all the losers (as judged by their wealth) lose like god intended them to.

it’s like you’ve never even heard of capitalism OR christianity. The bible spells it out: “blessed are the moneylenders, for they do not even need to inherit the earth because they already own both it and you”. Let’s not forget that Jesus kicked the meek out of the temple for not being wealthy enough to even comprehend god’s glory, amen.

I am a mod, but i am so out of passion. The original egg_irl on reddit is responsible for me finding myself as a trans woman.

The title rule exists to keep this place light-hearted. there are other places on this instance for deeper conversation, but this is first and foremost a place to share memes about eggs and gender questioning people and being trans.

The vast majority of community reports here are about breaking the title rule. Every once in a while there’s a spam report, or a report of stuff being off-topic, but mostly? just people breaking the title rule.

I get it. I thought the title rule was silly at first too. but it helps keep this place light-hearted and a place where people can flirt with their gender and/or dip their toes in the water safely, and make silly memes about the whole thing, without having to get serious about it and confront deep things within yourself you’re not ready to yet.

Sure, some random gru’s plan meme may topple you into that place anyway, but that’s the point. The only person who should crack an egg is the person inside that egg, and only through personal realization and self-understanding. The title rule helps us not step over that incredibly important boundary line.
