There are only two types of dog food: crap ones (lots of fillers including ingredient splitting, non-animal proteins) and good ones (protein from animal sources, chelated vitamins/minerals, natural preservatives). There are no "super good" ones, everything after the good level is just VC/PE-driven marketing and fear-based, guilt-provoking spin. Often on these supposed super premium or niche brands you'll see claims that a veterinarian helped develop the food - which is BS, as no veterinary program in North America teaches nutrition beyond what Nestle (Purina), Mars (Royal Canin) or Colgate (Science Diet) tells them - and that's focused on the business of selling food. Pet food development is the realm of animal science and nutrition specialists, not vets. Imagine asking your family doctor to help you make a salad dressing.

But again, it’s Rumble, a website that eschews evidence-based science for woo-woo voodoo science. Scams, including obvious scams, are also extremely common there.

I mean, there's people who unironically believe there's 80 genders lmao. You'll find idiocy is the default on every side and corner of the aisle, as opposed to intelligence, tact, taste, consideration, etc.
 
Pretty little park, but a shame that most residents won't feel safe or physically be able to use it, as it will likely get overtaken by ne'er do well and vagrants who camp out by the methadone clinic. The last time I did my work route, I saw someone with their drug parphenalia sprawled out all over one of the benches.
 
The management of the complex has done a good job keeping the park free of vagrants since it began opening. The biggest thing now is filling the retail at ground level.

Good to hear. My observations are anecdotal as Ive only walk by there once every 2 months. And now that I think of it, the incident I saw was 6 months ago, before opening

Glad our government has committed to closing safe injection sites based purely on vibes. Hopefully this kind of thing can spread everywhere.
 
And people with money complaining about the unsightliness of those less fortunate and of hard times seems to be old as spoken time...

...meanwhile, I suspect this pretty little park will live on regardless of those who use it as long as the park's elements are maintained. /shrug
 
At the risk of being that person, let's get back to the subject at hand here please. I am sure there is an appropriate thread (or least there should be, IMO) to discuss this contentious matter at further depths...

...as I'm just here for the smexy curved glass and such, not to parley in the "us verses them" wars that's poisoning our discourse. And to put that mildly.

Lol. Literally no one's saying that.

Injection sites being helpful is one of those recieved pieces of "wisdom" that's not necessarily true.

No one wants anyone to die. Duh.

This specific policy, however, may not be helping, or it may have negative effects of its own that need to be taken seriously.

And your side just bombed south of the border. You'd be wise to hear what the opposition are telling you as to how your side's policy choices contributed to that.

No, no, I agree! Dead in the streets! We should probably look into picking up a few of these. They're probably cheap second hand...

And somebody is not wanting to let this one go...

...but that's okay, because your side just went back into my quiet dungeon.
