Mankind is psychopathic.

Yesterday someone sent me pictures of Darigold farms and how they treat milking cows. Disgusting. appaling. distressing, all those words. I can't even enjoy dairy anymore. I've slowly become near vegetarian and now it looks like i'm gonna be done with dairy. Sure the odds are the milk I buy is from ethical farms but who knows for sure anymore? I can't put money into this. It's hard enough living with myself everyday.

The thing is all vegan fake dairy sucks. I can't even enjoy alternative milks. Rice, soy, almond. They suck and are expensive. I guess i'm gonna drink water, eat fruits and vegetables and grains like a goddam hippie. Ignorance really is bliss.

How do people doing these jobs live with themselves? I hope they have long and painful deaths. Fuck making a living , it's not worth this. If I was down to a job like this, i'd rather throw myself off a bridge.

Well why do I give a shit, we're on our last leg as a species. Our end can't come fast enough.

i don't know enough about foie gras to have an opinion, but i would've forgone it anyway so whatever. but a few pictures aren't a compelling argument

i used to see things differently (i was vegetarian for about five years, vegan for a few months) but as far as i'm concerned now, humane farming is fine from a welfare perspective. the environmental argument is stronger IMHO, but hey west antarctic ice shelf how you doin

even then that's still wishful thinking

MEAT ROBOTS

I switched between vegan/vegetarianism for 7 years and I'm omnivorous now but still eat a lot of plant food. I think animal husbandry and slaughter is ok provided we're not wasteful (which we are) and we genuinely care for the animals while they're alive (which often, we don't - particularly in some instances, like cage eggs, sow crates, veal, foie gras, etc.) It isn't good for them or us, to mistreat them or not take their life with some sense of regret and gratitude.

self interested animal welfare advocate. george carlin totally nailed that one. the planet is fine!

was it necessary to post all that shit

like i just wanted to read about cooking and you posted a deluge of foie gras pictures.

no cooking with foie gras!
