would anecdotally suggest that casual infidelity is, like, a thing. at least in some social circles?
I don't think this is "a thing" as in a trend that might, say, make it's way to the fashion and style section of the NYT so much as just how some people act sometimes.
Gay ppl do not exist outside of stories exclusively about gay ppl, get with the program.
We'd better take this discussion to the gay thread.

She has a couple of friends (or friends of friends) who have decided to keep a couple of chickens - so she interviews a female farmer - deliberately equates the two - is this 600 words yet?

Could only tolerate first 1/2 of femivore(??) article. Hey, my mom canned peaches (and tomatoes, and grape jam, and strawberry jam, and applesauce, and spaghetti sauce, and...) because we were POOR, OKAY? Also she grew corn and sunflowers and all our other vegetables for a while there.
She never went for chickens, personally, tho I know I've said before that we knew people who had ACTUAL FARMS who kept chix. God, people.

“The founding fathers pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor,” he said. “They believed in it so much that they would sacrifice. That’s the kind of loyalty to this country that we stand for.”
He blames the government for his unemployment. “Government is absolutely responsible, not because of what they did recently with the car companies, but what they’ve done since the 1980s,” he said. “The government has allowed free trade and never set up any rules.”
