I mean vegans are welcome to be vegan. If you want you can mention these things if you think they might matter to someone but in the end what is important to a vegan isn’t going to be important to other people and that’s fine. In the end suffering is life and we all are made to suffer so that someone else can exploit us. The only difference with meat is that it’s nutritious and something our body makes good use of. Humans on the other hand are exploited so that the privileged can continue to be privileged.
I mean I’ve seen the videos. It’s no worse than what I’ve seen in nature shows. Earth is a violent beautifully bloody place. There is nothing more abundant than the slow tearing of flesh for nourishment as the unfortunate prey suffer their last breath. It’s impersonal and necessary. I like animals and treat any animal I encounter with kindness and that’s not mutually exclusive to embracing the raw animalistic instinct in us that makes us formidable hunters and incredible at processing a carcass to its maximum utility. If i didnt have access to farmed meat i would not think twice about hunting that same animal. Humanity has figured out ways to use the bones, the collagen, the hide and organs of an animal and fully appreciate these gifts. While we definitely can make improvements on how to raise and harvest I am not ashamed of the fact that humanity has had the ingenuity to take control of our own nourishment and mass produce food that once used to be inaccessible to everyone but the wealthy. I have watched these videos and I’ve seen different slaughtering techniques. The sheep’s purpose is to reproduce to feed other animals. They don’t create or advance. They exist because other animals need to eat them. If we can feed ourselves without upsetting the natural balance I’m all for it. Humanity reproducing and spreading, building, changing the planet, rivers, swamps and other habitats is what is actually harmful to wildlife and yet these things continue to happen. We insist on reproducing and while I’ve seen plenty of hope with the advent of birth control and education, we still are a threat to biodiversity. Want to reduce meat consumption? Keep up the low birth rates! We can do it!
I see a lot of Latino Mormons here. Then they find out they can’t have chocolate…
You don’t need to trust your coworkers to organize. And they will take advantage of you if you work their shift etc and often will not reciprocate. You can acknowledge that coworkers aren’t your friends while understanding that organizing is good for everyone. If someone is gonna try to sabotage your attempts at organizing that’s just how it is but there’s no reason to trust a coworker to pay you back. Also, I’m sorry but if you’re putting people at risk I don’t care how friendly you act to me I’m reporting you.
Didn’t work for me. Getting rid of carbs in sugar did it but it’s hard to avoid something as tasty as my boyfriend’s bacon mushroom pizza… tried using alternatives to wheat flour and they are just as problematic or disgusting.
I know how to eliminate every inflammatory and autoimmune issue I have and it’s going back on keto… but my SO makes amazing pizza and nothing can replace it. So I’m dying slowly. Migraines, lack of energy, back and neck pain, joint pain and heart problems… diarrhea here I come!
It did feel great when I stayed on keto though.
Weird because this grocery store I’d go to always had a ton of orchids on sale. For cheap.
Where is everyone getting these jobs? Even if it’s slow I am still doing my job every few minutes unless systems are down.
Atomic barbie and my phone is jabrone
The instance isn’t yours. It doesn’t belong to the users. You are graced with being allowed to use it. The owner of the instance is the one that gets into legal trouble because you want to post your loli furry pictures to the world. If I ran my own instance I would be restricting content as well. And federating with an instance that hosts that shit forces them to also host that content.
What’s funny is these tankies are making the whole left look bad and I have to remind myself that these people are a tiny minority of disaducated extremists and not to let them put a bad taste in my mouth for anything socialist. I noticed their existence and rhetoric was pushing me right and now I’m realizing they’re very likely conservative trolls, fascists trying to make the left undersireable. A social democracy is what I look forward to, not licking putin’s aashole.
I want permanent wfh and I’d take a pay cut if I never had to worry about it again.
Nah man ive seen coworkers who spent this whole time in the office and caught covid multiple times become imbeciles no matter how good they were at the job. I’ve been home this whole time and I’m working with so many idiots.
It is weird. I love this stuff. It can be so useful and would love a game with interactive npc. Also really fun tools to brainstorm with.
Last time I was in Japan there was actually shit on the spray nozzle at the hotel.
We have them like that in italy and I don’t know anyone that uses it. We used it as a second toilet as kids. Pee only.
As long as I’m wfh it can snow all it wants
Considering most people only see the meat it makes sense. Most people have no idea what they fish itself looks like.
Seasoned crickets are good. Too expensive.
I feel like many have detached themselves way too much to what the realities of life are. We should be watching people and animals die because we are now so sheltered from things that we were born into as a species, that every animal other than us experience we have become sensitized to it. Trauma and violence are part of being a living being and I think it has distorted our perspective and appreciation for living. You won’t see many people who deal with daily violence commit suicide because they’re in survival mode which should be the norm for anything that is living. It changes your baseline for thise experiences. Lows might be very low but tolerable and highs will be extreme because something as mundane as a day without having to chase down a deer and almost get killed by a lion is going to be the most exhilarating day of your life. Veganism is the result of our easy low risk existence and it makes us less adventurous and a lot less likely to make it into space. Space vegans will never be a thing.
