Hey #bluesky world, is it possible to filter out those I'm already following from the Discover tab? Because about half the posts there are from accounts I already follow, and just saw scanning my Following tab, and I'm inclined to ignore that tab now since it's kinda redundant. TIA!

A movement to ban glue traps has gained strong support in BC. In 2024, UBCM endorsed a resolution for a province-wide ban. The province will be issuing a response, and it’s crucial they hear from you. Click here to send an email and show your support for the ban: https://buff.ly/4aWUPtQ #BCpoli

There's a story coming up on CBC Marketplace about the corportization and cost of Canadian vet clinics, but funnily enough I posted a story about this with my own experiences last week. Links to those others stories in the piece as well. #yyj #VictoriaBC

Also buying..cruelty, lots of cruelty. Environmental pollution and destruction, climate emissions, wasted water and crops.. I could go on. #vegan

Not eating eggs also works. Ever think about what an egg is, or where they come from? You really wanna put that in your mouth? #GoVegan
Did you know that alcohol can curb bacteria from eggs in eggnog?
Dr. Vincent Fischetti, a bacteriologist at Rockefeller University, joins us to talk about the latest in eggnogology.

It blows my mind how few 'save the fish' orgs ever suggest not eating them. And that choice would have a much larger impact as well. #vegan
Plastic straws make up 1% of ocean plastic waste…fishing nets is 50%. Please, the best way to save the fish is by not eating the fish ✌🏽
