Pets, it turns out, also have last wishes before they die, but only known by veterinarians who put old and sick animals to sleep. Twitter user Jesse Dietrich asked a vet what was the most difficult part of his job.

The specialist answered without hesitation that it was the hardest for him to see how old or sick animals look for their owners with the eyes of their owners before going to sleep. The fact is that 90 % of owners don't want to be in a room with a dying animal. People leave so that they don't see their pet leave. But they don't realize that it's in these last moments of life that their pet needs them most.

Veterinarians ask the owners to be close to the animals until the very end. "It's inevitable that they die before you. Don't forget that you were the center of their life. Maybe they were just a part of you. But they are also your family. No matter how hard it is, don't leave them.

Don't let them die in a room with a stranger in a place they don't like. It is very painful for veterinarians to see how pets cannot find their owner during the last minutes of their life. They don't understand why the owner left them. After all, they needed their owner’s consolation.

Veterinarians do everything possible to ensure that animals are not so scared, but they are completely strangers to them. Don't be a coward because it's too painful for you. Think about the pet. Endure this pain for the sake of their sake. Be with them until the end."

This is so insane…

Not exactly sure what you aim to imply. Do you think putting people in cages for burning a flag will stop the destruction of the past?

Words can be used to brainwash and abuse. Facts.

This dim bulb above who works in infosex needs to speak about how on NOSTR we have mute buttons.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS A HUGE RESPONSIBILITY

I will simply never vote for a candidate who proposes taxing unrealized gains.

On this issue I think slippery slope arguments are valid and historically grounded.

I also think it betrays a fundamental lack of understanding and economic illiteracy.

More troublingly, it indicates a perspective on the relationship between government and citizen that I think is anti-American. nostr:note1n5feqtv6nd4lvcrufnjvpdzaer2lv7cf07v38th6zlkzpt0w3e6qcej3vk

The worst thing about it is that the vast majority of people have no idea of it. They find other boogeymen like “corporate greed”, capitalism, etc.

Meanwhile, their unit of account is eroding in their hands. It’s sad and evil.

Some people here will say creators shouldn’t expect to make money on nostr, and then turn right around and say nostr needs more content. 🤯🤣

Society has reached a troubling point where the essence of masculinity is being diluted, whether by design or by unfortunate chance. This shift is becoming increasingly detrimental to our collective well-being. Alarming studies show that testosterone levels in men have been steadily declining over time, and the implications are far-reaching. As men become less masculine, it disrupts the very fabric of society that was built on the strength and resilience of men.

The causes of this decline are manifold—sedentary lifestyles, the rise of remote work, and the consumption of heavily processed foods, which I can only describe as "fiat food." These foods, endorsed by the mainstream narrative as healthy—hamburgers, milkshakes, soy—are anything but beneficial. In fact, they seem to be part of a larger agenda that undermines masculinity, pushing men toward a more estrogenic, more feminized state.

Is this shift a natural consequence of societal progress, or is it intentional? The growing trend towards a more estrogenic, less masculine society raises questions that demand answers. This isn't just about food or exercise; it's about the very essence of what it means to be a man in today's world. The stakes are high, and the consequences of continuing down this path could be devastating.
