Do things with fear. And make that phone call. Make that video call. Reach out to that person you have been meaning to. Go inside that store that intimidates you for some reason. Put your hand up and give your opinion if you have something to say. Literally, do it even with the fear, otherwise you never will. I’m holding your hand and rooting for you. GO GO GO.
“cost of living crisis” give me a FUCKING break it’s called “unprecedented corporate greed and income inequality” fucking cost of living crisis like it’s just a natural or unexplainable phenomenon Christ
shaking six year old me by the shoulders YOU WERE RIGHT. YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT LOVE AND ABOUT FAIRNESS AND ABOUT SHARING IS CARING. YOU WERE RIGHT. THE ADULTS DON’T KNOW ANY MORE ABOUT TRUTH THAN YOU DO. KEEP BELIEVING IN THE FAIRIES AT THE BOTTOM OF THE GARDEN. NOTHING IS “JUST THE WAY IT IS”. I AM SORRY THEY EVER CONVINCED YOU TO FEEL SHAME. YOU ARE REAL AND A PART OF THIS WORLD. YOU WERE RIGHT.
“whocares ita just a bug its just a bird its just a fish” ohhhh its just the miracle of life on earth . its just the beauty of biodiversity in my local area. its just millions and millions of years of tiny changes to a bucnh of little strands of amino acids and eventually all these circumstances brought us to this moment.but i only like this one kind of bugs so i want all the other ones to DIE I think their amino acids that took millenia to develop are DUMB AND WORTHLESS and who cares about them who cares I just want to have some stupid plants in my yard that wish they lived somewhere completely different so bad and I have to constantly battle to keep their sickly bodies functioning in this place they were never meant to live. because I saw it in a magazine
This post is about how total extermination on a species-wide scale for the sake of capitalist concepts of value and convenience is wanton destruction of unique and irreplaceable pieces of the one and only ecosystem we know exists for certain, which has taken millions of years to manifest as we know it.
Consumption of other individual animals, in sustainable amounts, is a feature of this ecosystem that cannot be written out. An animal being eaten to sustain another animal does not in any way diminish the value of the consumed.
So like. Do consider sustainability! And be grateful for what you consume. But the responsible consumption of the meat of other animals as a part of our diet as omnivores is a neutral act on an individual basis.
