Why does everyone tolerate, the intolerable?

In 2025, we have in so many ways allowed standards to now stop. Standards now allow anyone to go into shops, steal without stopping. Standards allow anyone to disrespect without stopping. Standards dropped allowing knifing. Standards dropped allowing a Government to disrespect older peeps the list is endless. Why do you tolerate, the intolerable.

Gripes on this website - well some - why don’t you get what
is just?

I fight, and win many things unjust, for me, even if it’s things
like taxation, pension maze, cat food nonsense, animal cruelty, people ignorance, lying by omission Government/companies - whole kit and caboodle - but at least I’m trying - please stop allowing this awful destruction of our beautiful England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland - or in any order - our beautiful country is being destroyed. If any of you travel - you’ll know it is.

If my Father, his Father and his Father were here today, how ashamed they would be. Don’t just accept everything our beautiful country and its peeps deserve better, truly we do.

BizB posted previously asking posters to adopt Battery hens as they make cuddly friends.
I've never cuddled a hen but DD has adopted battery hens (they live outside) and they have rewarded her with eggs.

Going off-topic, my SO has rescue hens and some of them do become very tame and enjoy a cuddle. Currently, we have one crazy chook who waits to be carried to bed in Cluckingham Palace every night.

Is she wrapped up in a feather duvet before she goes to sleep?

No I really could not cuddle a hen.

We had one years ago and she smelled of chicken.

😂
Not quite, M0nica - she'd probably find feathers offensive and SO hasn't yet thought of polyester!

I would still like BixB to come back and explain what the "cat food nonsense" is all about.

Hens are funny aren't they? they tolerate some people but they are so intolerant of others. Ours hated men

Someone playing with their new Ai ChatBot.

This poster has started a thread previously and participated in a different previous thread. Not that new ai then.

She/he isn’t participating in this thread though, are they ?

We once rescued a chicken swimming in a Marina. With difficulty 😂 He obviously didn’t want to be rescued.

Kit and caboodle. If I get a kitten I will call it caboodle 😆

Is it me? Have I finally lost my final marble?
