I'm on boost and it doesn't have that option (I think)

On the website, you can go to your profile and there should be a list of blocked instances you can add them to

I just instance blocked them, good riddance. Too bad I do occasionally have to see posts from their users on other instances.

It also reeks of AI generated slop.

Are you saying fundamental mistrust doesn't deepen your relationship?

I imagine a late 19th century rat or pigeon had a much healthier diet than a modern one. Just be sure not to touch the lungs too much...

Oh yeah, you can totally eat pigeons, and people do. You can totally eat rats (and I assume some people do). But those aren't the ones you randomly spot eating garbage in the cities.

Oh, I don't live in the US. But yeah, every eligible voter, minus those who actively voted against it.

I think these have basically always been carbon-zinc, or alkaline.

Technically, zinc is a heavy metal, but basically harmless to humans unless you eat the whole thing. Alkaline batteries contain managous oxide, which is a heavy metal, but you'd need some serious chronic exposure to get into trouble from that.

It's still a good idea not to open random crap that washes ashore, because there are definitely FAR more dangerous things that come in small metal cylinders. Like unexploded ordnance.

Yeah, also knows as a 4R25 6V battery, or the battery from a "24 hours lamp" (from way back when they still used lightbulbs, they last weeks now on LEDs). Those lanterns are used a lot in marine work and roadworks. Having one land in the sea is entirely common.

Organise more and better LARPs

I parttimed it as a teenager and in my early 20. It was really great and I enjoyed it a lot, but it's not a fulltime carreer if you don't have a degree in it.

I loathe gardening. But i'll gladly build you your gardening stuff! Teamwork, yeah!

I use a really good, free alternative to photoshop and indesign.

They're called pirated photoshop and pirated indesign.

I also love to legally torrent my favourite open source software legally.

France is bacon.

Knowledge is power

The fact that China refused tons of pork and soy beans imports from America means there will be...

huge, unexpected profits for groceries?

Urban pigeons and rats are definitely NOT a safe food. They're full of chemical pollution that you can't cook out, and probably more than a few diseases which you might also catch. It beats starving to death, but you should consider basically anything else, including boiling your (vegetable tanned) leather belts and shoes.

hehe, hard

Well, none of them are still alive, that should be a hint
