Yup. Its amazing how quick and efficient the government is when rich peoples interests are involved

I think plant-based is the diet choice and veganism is the lifestyle. I got corrected by someone who was plant based. They didn’t want to associate with vegans

I agree. It doesn’t cost a lot to buy lentils and make dal, but it takes time.

The problem is really our entire food system is geared towards profit and the excessive suffering that comes from that. If you want to eat meat a little more ethically…you have to spend more or have the time to raise animals yourself.

Vegans vs meat-eaters is distraction from humans vs industrialized food. Vegans are correct about the suffering of animals, but those that focus on preaching to convert would find their time best spent being compassionate to those that can’t make changes.

Some small changes include:

• have one more vegetarian day a week
• in a restaurant select the vegetarian entree or three vegetarian side dishes in stead of a meat main course
• buy from local farms if available
• make some mushy Peas for a lunch option
• meal prep (vegan/vegetarian food does freeze easily and is easy to reheat)
• if making a dish that contains ground meat substitute (homemade options below)

I mean to do it all at once is not easy. Making small changes over time can improve health and save money. Thinking about the suffering of the animals can be detrimental, because you may associate making vegan choices with thoughts of animal suffering. I used to subscribe to a vegan magazine, but half of it was amazing recipes, and the other half was distressing animal stories.

You’re not a terrible human if you eat meat! It’s not easy to change, but doing a little bit can go a long way. See if you can cut it down ❤

That took a turn I hope that suicide will be legal and safe before you have to make that choice.

When mine was 600 I got $2500 with zero interest for six months. I was able to pay it off within the six months. I would try to apply to see.

Is this comments section: “fuck shit up, society isn’t working,” vs “follow the rules when you protest, that’s how you make change happen.”

Good eye I was looking at the top right picture on the belly thinking “how do they know what that is!?” (Edit, typo)

I don’t even see it! 😆

Same. My parents went to the courthouse with their besties, then out to dinner after.

Some info that I found important that isn’t in this article but is in the Wiki:

He spent 18 months in hospital, before going home. He was paralyzed from the neck down. His parents rented a portable generator and a truck to bring him and his iron lung home. Beginning in 1954, with help from the March of Dimes and a physical therapist named Mrs. Sullivan, Alexander taught himself glossopharyngeal breathing which allowed him to leave the iron lung for gradually increasing periods of time.

Alexander died from a COVID-19 infection on March 11, 2024, at the age of 78. He was one of the last two people still using the technology, alongside Martha Lillard, who first entered an iron lung in 1953.

We should have two leagues based on skill. Not gender or sex. We can still create space to have awards and prizes based on gender or sex to ensure everyone is recognised if necessary.

They take quite a lot of money from the British public (taxes, not donations. They = British royal family). Part of the cost of that is being in the public eye. If she really thought royals deserved privacy I’m sure she would have said something when Meghan was being destroyed by the media.
