This is from the chicken thread when Twisty was getting a 1 week probe for asking basic chicken questionsSaint Twisty posted:Is it considered humane to trim their wings? Please tell me about ethical chicken raising. The admin response angerbeet posted:User Tricky Twisty is hereby allowed to ask questions about chickens in this thread.

HelloIAmYourHeart posted:Maremma sheepdog follow up link There was another intervening thread on a separate forum where (to no one's surprise) the dog has already started going mad in her yard and developed a fixation on a specific tree, ripping up bushes to protect it and giving it kisses. She was contemplating trying to solve this problem by getting two giant rabbits. https://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/165357-my-maremma-puppy/

I'm sure some people do, but a lot of them are going to have minimal amounts/tougher meat if they're not real meat breeds. Also, probably not advisable specifically if they're not being butchered since they're most likely either dying of age or some disease at that point, either of which would not be worthwhile.

Maybe I missed it, but does anyone have the link to thI thread about the person who got two puppies who ended up with littermate syndrome or something? There may have also have been a follow-up thread because I think he was going to re-home them or something. I'm pretty sure it was PI, but I could also be thinking of some other site altogether The sheepdog thread reminded me of that.

Tell Me About Starting Up a Small Business.(Coffee Shop)quote:So my partner and I are going to start up a coffee shop and wanna ask our fellow goons for advice. He has around 20k and terrible credit and I have decent credit and I happen to be a woman and a Native American so hopefully I could help get us a loan. I have 8 years in the coffee business and 10 years in a supervisory position. Corporate coffee sucks and I can't wait to get out. quote:Thanks for all the help so far. Unfortunately, I am not giving up. The thread delivered on literally everyone trying to explain why it was a bad idea. Someone linked a famous article about a person who tried to do the same and came to the conclusion it was a terrible idea that destroys lives. quote:The dream of running a small cafe has nothing to do with the excitement of entrepreneurship or the joys of being one's own boss—none of us would ever consider opening a Laundromat or a stationery store, and even the most delusional can see that an independent bookshop is a bad idea these days. The small cafe connects to the fantasy of throwing a perpetual dinner party, and it cuts deeper—all the way to Barbie tea sets—than any other capitalist urge. To a couple in the throes of the cafe dream, money is almost an afterthought. Which is good, because they're going to lose a lot of it.

I hate to be a white noise “I remember that” dude but drat I remember that coffee shop thread and it ended up being such a weird thing in my head - the posts explaining why it was such a bad idea - that it’s helped me put into context so much bad business brain bullshit that people fall into.

i don't think opening a cafe is that stupid actually. opening a coffee shop that isn't one of those little shacks to compete with Starbucks is though. i think all the ones around here mostly survive on selling cheap breakfast and lunch food

I think there’s room for diners, but the “coffee shack” competing with Starbucks is just hosed. Someone in my hometown opened one in earnest and now it’s open 3 hours a day and bills itself as a “music and event venue” which makes me sad because it feels like a way to prolong the inevitable. We don’t even have a Starbucks within 20 miles, but the hometown “coffee shop” I don’t think can survive at least in your average small town on the highway.

It's wild hearing about starbucks in the US, in Aus there's probably like 3-5 in every major city and everyone avoids them in favour of independent coffee stores; Starbucks really only caters to tourists and people who want ridiculous dessert drinks with more whipped cream than liquid If anyone controls the market it's the various roasters, every mom & pop cafe will have like Ona or Campos branding all over the cafe so you know what beans you're gonna get

Starbucks managed to thrive in Canada for two main reasons. One, Vancouver is basically just Seattle with healthcare instead of guns, and two, Tim Hortons took an enormous nosedive in the early 2000s to the point that they failed to renegotiate their exclusivity contract for The Good Coffee and McDonald's of all chains scooped it right out from underneath them.
