  • Dairy contains a morphine-like substance so baby calves are drawn to it. Cheese is literally addictive.

    While many scientists believe cats to be obligate carnivores, one study attempted to show that many of the studies conducted in plant-based diets to not show any detrimental effects, when the test wasn't conducted poorly or there was already a selection bias in place.

    Just something to consider. This doesn't cement veganism for domestic felines, but it does show that better studies need to be conducted.

  • Best part was that SMS was specifically designed to use the current infrastructure at the time without inducing any real demand on it. It didn't cost the companies much of anything to implement it.

  • This is something I'm worried about. I actually have a decent-paying blue-collar job, but I want to be an engineer and expand myself. A lot of entry engineering positions pay less than what I currently make. I'd be happy breaking even, but pay cuts are a hard decision to make.

  • Remember when TP companies lied to us and said that bigger tubes made it easier to unwind the paper, and had nothing to do at all with being able to charge the same amount for less TP?

    Anyway yeah, this tube is ridiculous.

  • No, the "lesson" you're trying to teach is that just because the movement isn't popular, it isn't worth doing. You're making logical fallacies to equate our morality-based struggle to something like needing gasoline to get to work because you refuse to agitate for better public transit or buying a fucking bicycle. Not only that, but your methodology is flawed, and I merely stated as such in your irrelevant context just to make a point. Your apathy to change doesn't mean it isn't worth doing. Slavery was considered a normal part of everyday life until people agitated against it. People had no qualms destroying the environment until people agitated against it. Animal abuse was rampant in the past, and now we've enacted laws against it. Your argument is trash because you are so apathetic to non-human suffering, you couldn't possibly fathom the notion that we could do things better and treat others better. Instead of being the ones exploiting, we can be caretakers. All social movements start out small and slow. Once they hit a threshold point, they explode into the collective conscience. So yeah, I'm going to keep agitating to remind people that they're the ones propping up this veritable holocaust where we murder billions of land animals every year for sensory pleasure, when a better way of living has been available to us for well over a hundred years now. Just that people use your hollow arguments to bemoan that it sounds like it's not worth doing because it's "too hard." It's not too hard, you're just selfish. OR, you could opt to actually dabble in empathy and get in on the ground floor. You'd get to say you were vegan before it was cool.
