I just ate an incredible breakfast of vegan pancakes, tofu scramble, and veggie bacon. You do not need animal based foods to eat well 😋

In addition to the abject cruelty, our addiction to animal flesh and secretions is having a catastrophic effect on the environment.

Same, except swap out “books” for foods and “problematic creators” for animal farmers. 🤣

I would never tell people what books or authors they ‘can’ and ‘can’t’ read.
I am, however, happy to tell them why I choose not to support the books by problematic creators, then judge the individual by how they choose to move forward with that information.

Holy sh*t! And this is in the wool industry which so many animal ag apologists vehemently defend as not cruel.
Makes me sick!

‘Sheep dipping' is a process in the wool industry to treat parasites like lice in sheep.
The sheep are completely submerged in toxic pesticides for almost 15 seconds. What a horrific ordeal this must be 😡

If you believe animal cruelty is wrong then you already understand the best reason to go vegan.
You only need to put that belief into action.
What's stopping you? Maybe I can help.

Welfarism tries to sell a story that what matters is how we use animals. Not that we use them. It’s a distraction. A golden cage. The bird is still inside 🐥

‘There are more pressing issues than veganism’
But are there?
Do we really stand a chance of reigning in our billionaire oppressors & their violent overreach w/o making all oppression & unwarranted violence non-negotiable? We need a vegan baseline if we expect to be effective in battling injustice

In order to live in harmony with nature and one another we must stop exploiting animals.

Just because humans had to do certain actions for survival in the past (eating animals, drinking cows' milk, etc.) doesn't mean we are justified to do those things for pleasure now.
Those actions are harming our environment and torturing innocent beings. Why not try some plant based alternatives?

2 of the most deplorable tyrants in USA don’t deserve the amount of attention they are receiving.
The engagement only encourages their horrendous acts and distracts from the harm this fascistic US government is causing.

#Fishing is #Hunting in the water. These fish feel pain with hooks in their mouths, sometimes the hooks swallowed, being yanked and strung up. Then they get to slowly suffocate to death 💀. Just stop it.

As an aging board gamer with limited time and storage space I no longer want $200+, shelf-hogging “big box” games loaded with plastic that take over 3 hours to teach and play.
I want elegant, short small box games that I can teach and play multiple times w/ my friends while enjoying tea and snacks
