>East Asians have had higher IQs than whites for decades
The source is richard fucking lynn sourcing it all from jintan. China’s real average IQ is 87. 60-70% of their people are in rural poverty. It is impossible for the average chinese IQ to be high. Literally, scientifically. You fell for propaganda. The man misrepresented black IQs and used the most cherry picked data (select participants, extrapolated verbal IQs) to claim jews were the master race. Imagine falling for race and IQ bullshit! You fucking idiot.

East asians have never exceeded whites beyond the gains to be made by diligent study… and only testing those who have studied.
East asians have never exceeded whites in geniuses per capita. In fact, they lag. Because 60-70% of chinese live in poverty.

By every single inherent quality asians and whites are equal.
By every single inherent quality jews and whites are equal.

>but le asian tiger mom culture
Cool, maybe they can overthrow the CCP and drag the last two thirds of their people out of feudal servitude and make their military equipment actually work in practice. Any day now.

As it is, chinese are just white people 20 years ago. In 20 years they will just be white people. Make no mistake

>le IQs
Every single high average IQ you have seen for every country is a lie. China’s is definitely a lie.
http://raceandiqmyths.blogspot.com/2016/10/fake-chinese-iq-studies-richard-lynn.html?m=1
http://raceandiqmyths.blogspot.com/2016/11/low-iq-data-set-on-china-as-mentioned.html?m=1
There is not one country on earth with a real average IQ of 100 or more. Any that claim this are guilty of data manipulation. 100 is the average for educated test takers. The test is tailored to public education. The highly g weighted vocabulary section makes strong assumptions as to what the test takes have and have not read.

IQs are meant for measuring performance in public school. When people claim their country is high IQ, it means select groups of students either chose to study well, or were forced to study well or leave school and end up like most of china - pic related.

The real average IQs of select areas in the so called first world drop down to african levels.

There is no such thing as a master race. Genetic diversity among humans is lower than genetic diversity among dogs. The non-misrepresented data does not lie. While there are certainly born idiots and born geniuses, no race of humans can claim to have so many of one or the other that they are just better by merit of belonging to a genetic cluster. Racial differences affect temperament and ideal diet 100x more than intelligence.

I’ve been trying to convince my family that they can’t keep free feeding and locking them away if they want to socialize the cats to humans.

All I can say is that you still have good chances with getting them domesticated if they are at 5 months. My father has an adult which used to be domestic before going feral for 4-5 years and then got captured by a rescue which checked his tag but the original owners couldn't take him back. He's a Norwegian Forrest and big one at that. He didn't like socialization at all and was very reactive to physical contact, with the best you could do was rely on letting him out and then have him come back in the evening after keepong him indoors after a few months. My father was pretty fucking bad for him as he was a drunk who didn't give a fuck about giving animals space and as a result he got swiped and bit a lot, but he always got pissy with me because the cat grew to like me. All I did was give the lil' fucker space, be quiet and when he approached me to remain calm until overtime he started to get in my face or headbutt which I would then slowly and carefully scritch his head. This was always risky as if I fussed somewhere he wasn't used to he would suddenly without warning bite, but over time I was able to get him to allow me to fuss the sides of his neck near the chin and the lower back of the neck. Anywhere else and he would bite and run off. If he sat on my lap or fell asleep I would wait until he got up to not spook him and to encourage the association of comfort with me. Before long he was kneading my shirts to bits with his big ass claws. We got him when he was 6 and now he is 19 and social to everyone, including my drunk father. You can fuss him just about every where bar belly and he copes incredibly well with two 3 year old hyper dogs that every now and again try to bother him.

I think even if your parents are not helping you can still provide a behavioral change personally and make it work. It will take years if they are in a household where everybody is not on board, but it can work.

It's so fucking annoying how native plant gardening was coopted by redditors and hippy libtard chicks into some lukewarm political stance they can use to virtue signal.
At least it's funny to see them try to one up eachother with how "native" they can be to the point they chastise eachother for planting something that's found in a neighboring county but not theirs a dozen miles away.

My girlfriend is a strict vegan so we are a vegan household. Recently, we got a cat and we want to stick to our vegan morals.

The problem is, most cat foods are non-vegan. Most other advice for cat food is also non-vegan.

Does anyone else keep vegan pets? What are some vegan-friendly cat treats? We were thinking carrots but they are a little firm. Perhaps boiled?

Making your carnivore pet eat vegan "food" instead of meat is animal abuse. Your cat won't get satisfied from eating "le heckin' holesum veggies" or whatever you want to feed your cat with, and because he won't get satisfied and there will be no meat (actual food, it's not even vegan vs meat-eater debate, we're talking about cats here) he'll try to satisfy his hunger by eating more and more while barely getting any nutrients. Then he'll become fat and will likely develop diabetes or any other disease. This happened to my cat when he was eating catfood with 50/50 meat/veggies ratio. Now imagine stripping away all meat. This is abuse. I really hope that it's just bait as other people say, but if it's not then you should never be allowed near animals. I'm saying this from the bottom of my heart, OP, kill yourself.

Its very interesting watching a jellybean grow into a little tree, since you can never be sure if what you're looking at in a picture is an individual plant or not.
They seem to have no problem with just growing new rosettes anywhere on the stem, they'll reabsorb a leaf and it'll turn into a new growth point right under some older leaves. An old ugly circle left on the stem from where a bean fell off? We'll just use it again.
I've heard they get leggy and bare-stemmed after a few years no matter what though, which I suppose makes sense, leaves hidden at the bottom of a stem serve little purpose.
Additionally, calling them jellybeans and marketing them based on how cute they are really undersells just how fucking bizarre and alien they look next to other plants, they look fictional, like someone tried to make a weird looking plant to put in the background for some sci fi planet.
