your world dies

Vegan. Polyamorous. Childfree. I find the right and the left equally intolerable these days. Misanthropic, but I still want everyone to be treated fairly. California. I laugh at everything.

This is the most tumblr thing ever.

Is it possible that future generations will regard our present agribuisness and eating practices in much the same way we now view Nero’s entertainments or Mengele’s experiments? My own initial reaction is that such a comparison is hysterical, extreme - and yet the reason it seems extreme to me appears to be that I believe animals are less morally important than human behings; and when it comes to defending such a belief, even to myself, I have to acknowledge that (a) I have an obvious selfish interest in this belief, since I like to eat certain kinds of animals and want to be able to keep doing it, and (b) I haven’t succeeded in working out any sort of personal ethical system in which the belief is truly defensible instead of just selfishly convenient.

today i had 2 black people tell me that you can be racist against white people, #alllivesmatter is the right thing to say, and that white people can wear dreadlocks. my white ass wasn’t about to tell them what they should be offended by but still. ick.

[ummquestion]

So you had two black people speak to you about equality and progress and the only thing you walked away with was disgust for them?

…In all honesty, it’s racist to tell us what we should be offended by due to our race. That’s actual racism. I’m actually offended by OP stating that there’s something wrong with them for having an opinion that is not PC. People are different. Please stop.

Vegans need to watch nature documentaries of animals in the wild eating each other. It’s how the world works. It’s harsh but that’s how the world is.

[acti-veg]

And here we have the carnist, stalking their prey at the deli counter… Look at this magnificent predator queuing ferociously at the checkout, one hand poised carefully on their credit card in readiness, knowing that with just one false move they could be overcharged for Italian salami… Nature truly is a cruel beast.

What do you think about humane farms?

I’ve always believed that its perfectly ok to exploit, commodify, non-consensually sexually penetrate an animal in order to force breed them and then premeditatingly kill them for the sake of pizza toppings, just as long as you do it nicely. Just put one of those humane stickers on the package and I’m a happy guy. I don’t need to see the specifics.

The idea that humans are able to consider another species “over populated” is kind of arrogant.

The Devil’s Kettle waterfalls in Minnesota have one side that pours over a ledge and continues, and another side with a deep hole that vanishes into nowhere. Researchers have poured in dyes, ping pong balls, and logs, but nobody can figure out where it goes. Source

So how much suffering is acceptable? That’s what’s at the bottom of all this, and what each person has to ask himself. How much suffering will you tolerate for your food?

If you hear the words “all lives matter” and think that doesn’t include black lives, then you’re saying blacks don’t count as people.

You bigot.

Tumblr wouldn’t lie, would they?

You know the problem with “Drunk women can’t consent” but holding men liable for their decisions while drunk?

It literally says that a man has a higher mental capacity because he is still capable of making decisions when drunk and a woman isn’t. It literally says that women do not possess the same mental capacity as men. 

Feminists, in another attempt at demonizing men and fighting “rape culture”, have inadvertently created a system that quite literally says women are less than men in some aspect.

carnist: I would totally go vegan but I can't! It's unhealthy, I need B12, Iron, calcium,...

vegan: hey, then you'll be happy to know that all of those nutrients can be found in a plant based diet!

*lists 173758279 vegan foods for every single nutrient that you can find in every supermarket*

carnist: *suddenly doesn't care anymore*

What if dinosaurs were not actually extinct, but the Knights of the Middle Ages killed the remaining ones because they thought that they were dragons.

Your cat may be wandering farther than you think when they go outside. A recent GPS study tracked collars on cats and found that some will wander almost two miles from home at night. Source Source 2
