Worse.

Presumably you refer 'feral pigeons'.
It is debatable which can be more hazardous to health . . . .

---

I think inland seagulls who feed on obnoxious carrion , are likely more dangerous to health if they shit on you ~ particularly if you are looking up with your mouth open-wide!

---

But the 'pigeons' . . . .
These are not really pigeons . They are the superfast breeding offspring from 'lost' homing pigeons ; which were human created, bred (it is thought) by crossing & inbreeding from rock-doves (+) , many centuries ago .

---

(the only pigeon that is indigenous to UK is the Wood Pigeon , and quite pretty & edible , if one is that way inclined . When I was about 12 y-o , I once shot , cleaned & cooked a Woody for my parents ! - They said it was very tasty!!)

*this is a royal racing pigeon, a homer ~ NEITHER feral , nor a woody*

I don’t disagree with you at all! I love animals and that’s why it’s so saddening going to a zoo or something; it’s lovely to see the animals but they should really be free and not in captivity (I guess it’s a fraction better when it’s a conservation and the animals actually *need* help as they wouldn’t survive in the wild on their own due to injuries, etc).

---

I think the main issue I have are those who breed animals purely for the money repeatedly; the stress it must put on the mother of constantly having her babies taken away is unimaginable, as well as the physical toll it must take on her body. I remember when we got Teddy, the woman who gave him to us was so distraught, and I don’t think she’s ever bred with her dogs since. I know the owner still takes her dogs to visit her puppies that live locally to her, so that to me doesn’t sound as bad? It shows that there’s a genuine affection and care there for her dogs well-being. But yeah, I’m the same as you really, it’s hard not to feel conflicted.

For all of the horror that does happen, there are a lot of loving families out there and pets who have wonderful lives in a good home, such as with yourself! I guess with anything, there’s positives and negatives to it :)

I know I and many other women I know have spent there whole life dealing with things that we rarely bring up to the men in my life because they’re so everyday. That the banality of it..that’s the crazy part, is the banality. The women who speak to me have is a tone in talking about being followed, having people shout things across the street, or being groped on a crowded train or having their drink spiked or being spoken to aggressively, being yelled at by men. And when they stand up for themselves only finding that it fuels the flames of this, and now all of a sudden they’ve got someone who is not just shouting at them but making genuine threats.

You hear all of these problems and they will readily admit there’s all these problems. But I don’t have any idea of how to solve it because how do you solve it? How do you solve that feeling of walking past a guy and he gives you a look or he does something or he says something and you’re on hyper alert and you tense up and your adrenaline spikes because you have no idea which way this could go. And is it someone with good intentions or is it someone with the worst intentions? And if it is someone with the worst intentions, what’s my escape plan, how do I get out of this? Just having to think that way and knowing that if you stand up for yourself it could only make the situation worse and may even be likely to make the situation worse. That leaves women in the most extraordinary bind.

It’s not just walking home at 2am “oh you shouldn’t walk home at 2am” No, it’s walking home at any time of day, and finding yourself on a street with the wrong person, with no one around or everybody around and no one doing anything. “You should get a car home from work.” Well, maybe I don’t have the money. And if I do have the money, what service do I use? Where I’m likely to be getting in a car with a man I don’t know, hoping he has good intentions.

I think it can be both, or one of them.
I'll use it in the scenario of relationships: It depends on the nature/stability of the relationship. For instance, a relationship that is full of control, gaslighting, jealousy, manipulation, etc., is one of chaos, because it destabilizes both parties and is ultimately fragile and damaging. A relationship that is full of encouragement, reassurance, independence, acceptance, trust, etc., is one of order, because it provides growth and stability. Having order in life means feeling you are in control, and being disorganized means feeling out of control. A relationship in which both people (or all, if it's a polygamous relationship, I guess) support each other and are on the same page brings a sense of order, but if there is no support and the people in the relationship have different motives, it's disorganized.

Now, love is a culmination of various feelings, rather than an individual feeling. Love can make people become jealous and controlling (scenario of chaos relationship), or it can make people become nurturing and stable (scenario of order relationship). Thus it depends on the accompanying emotions. But I believe relationships can be bred from chaos and become healthy, or they can be bred from order but become chaotic. I believe that people are quick to leave a relationship if they consider it toxic, but not all toxic relationships stay toxic forever. Because a toxic relationship means that someone, or both people, or all people, in that relationship is/are unhealthy. They have the capacity to become healthy, if they so choose. But if they never do, the relationship stays toxic, or chaotic.

---

Love can drive some people mad and unstable. They want to know what their partner is doing at all times, they want to protect their partner from the perils of the world, and so on. But love can also make people happy, and provide a support system. Love can make you gain confidence in yourself and learn to thrive. Love can deplete all life, or it can bring life. This is because love has a dual nature. It is both birthing and murderous.

---

An unhealthy person's love can be ruinous, while a healthy person's love can inspire improvement and maturation. But things are not always so rigid: people are not always healthy or always unhealthy. This is how love can be ruinous at one point and inspire improvement/maturation at another.

We are currently in the midst of a mass extinction event, the sixth of its kind in the history of the planet, where something like 5000 species are estimated to be going extinct per year, which is x1000 the (again, estimated) rate we would normally expect. There's nothing we can do to save most of them, because we have defiled the ecologies they depend on. Trillions of individual lifeforms will wither and die directly from our industrialised way of life in our lifetimes, until eventually, we'll starve, poison and maybe even sterilise ourselves with pollutants, and die out. No creature we engineered or bred to feed us or entertain us or keep us company will last more than a generation without us.

Anyway, to answer the question: sure, why not? I'd go. My favourite dinosaur is the Parasaurolophus.

Sa zaljubljenim ljudima nije lako, znam to. Kada volimo nekoga spremni smo da zazmurimo na sve njegove mane, da mu oprostimo ono sto mozda sebi i drugima ne bi nikad, da prelazimo preko mnogo toga jer smo sebi stvorili jednu iluziju u koju zelimo da verujemo. Kada se za nekoga jako vezes ne mozes ni da zamislis da ostanes bez njega pa cak iako mislis da bi to bilo najbolje resenje tako da moras i nju da shvatis. Ona je trenutno u nekom svom svetu, na ringispilu srece i tuge i ne registruje svet ni osobe oko sebe. Ti si zaista divna drugarica i drago mi je da ima osobu i prijatelja poput tebe pored sebe. Nije mnogo toga na tebi ovde, ne mozes ljude da nateras da urade stvari koje im kazes, posebno ne kad se oni vode osecanjima. Povedi jedan razgovor sa njom koji ce biti iskren do bola i pomozi joj da uvidi cinjenice. Tvoje je da joj izneses istinu, da joj pokazes da ti je stalo do nje a njeno je da donese konacnu odluku. Nemoj stalno da ponavljas isto, pomislice da si ljubomorna pa mozda dodje do rascepa vaseg prijateljstva. Ovako je jos jednom upozori, budi detaljnija nego inace i tako ces uraditi pravu stvar. Sta god da bude posle ti neces biti ni za sta kriva jer si dala sve od sebe. Nekad ne mozemo da kontrolisemo svoje ponasanje pa dodje do kobnih posledica ali u tome nas prosto niko ne moze spreciti, moramo da osetimo na svojoj kozi sve sto smo prouzrokovali da bi na taj nacin odrasli i naucili nesto novo, stekli drugacije iskustvo. Ako nista drugo, nakon raskida ce imati najjacu podrsku - tebe i koliko - toliko ce lakse proci kroz isti. Nadajmo se da ce na vreme shvatiti sta se desava i sama presuditi, da nece dati njemu to zadovoljstvo da je ostavi. Koliko mi mozemo da budemo glupe, ali stvarno glupe kad zavolimo nekoga ja ne verujem. Nema tu granica ali zato kad nas spici realnost precrtacemo te pa da si Bred Pit. Valjda ce se to kod nje desiti sto pre!
