Am I Adulting Yet? @arekushisu100 - Tumblr Blog

when i was a kid i was taught to be safe online. never give out my name, location, or any personally identifying information. i was told to immediately block people who ask for A/S/L. i was taught to always hide who i was, use a pseudonym, only share my email with people i absolutely trust.

and now im supposed to give my legal driver's license to every single porn website and use my email and sign up for ads and junk mail every time i want to read an article and agree to webcrawling ad tracking surveillance to do anything online anymore.

but yeah, its for kids safety. sure. i bet the panoption is much safer than the club penguin and nickelodeon dot com that i had as a kid. so glad we got rid of kid friendly spaces and in turn had to make the entire internet advertisement friendly. so glad we tore down that public park and replaced it with a strip mall and parking lot next to a police station

1. Eating meat is morally neutral 2. There are many ethical ways butchering has been practiced for a long time 3. factory farming is unethical due to the abuse faced in the animal's life, not bc it results in the animal's death 4. Ethically raised and sourced meat is expensive and/or hard to find in many places 5. *there are people who CANNOT subsist on a plant based diet* for varied reasons, largely disabled folks - (allergies/GI disorders that already limit what a person can eat, people in recovery from restrictive eating disorders, people with ARFID and other sensory processing disorders) and people with little money and time on their hands to cook. 6. Vegans who are adamant about animal rights often have a major blind spot as to human rights abuses; the meatpacking industry is terrible for those who work in it, yes, but people are laboring hard for your grains and produce too, often in unethical conditions and for little pay, and Vegans will treat you like you're doing some kinda "gotcha" and spit vitriol at you whenever you point this out 7. It is not Wrong to eat only plant based certainly but when people start acting like it gives them a moral highground it shows starkly how little regard for fellow humans these people have 8. Just because YOU are disabled/broke/etc and can sustain veganism does not give you permission to harass somebody who says their disability or finances prevent it 9. The most ethical way to eat, if you can achieve it, is by buying things with a short supply chain that were grown locally by properly-paid laborers

10. there is currently no way to get vitamin B12 in a vegan diet without supplementing, and vegans have increased risk of nutrient deficiencies unless they meticulously plan their diet and/or take other supplements as well. I don't love the idea of advocating for a wholesale switch to a diet reliant on vitamin/supplement companies' products

11. leather, which is a very useful material for many purposes, is a byproduct of the beef industry. all currently available leather alternatives are plastic, which causes large-scale environmental destruction including but not limited to animal habitat loss (yes, even the "pineapple" and "cactus" leathers- they're processed with so much plastic that they are essentially just plastic by the end). no beef = no leather = increasing plastic dependence. ditto wool, but this is about materials related to eating animals, so. leaving that out for now

12. Veganism as it exists today is only possible via a vast complex international shipping and distribution system.

I took a bus to a conference today and the bus driver fully stopped the bus to identify and chastise a person who was playing music out loud on their phone. That is how you get me to actually complete the customer service survey specifically so I can give you top ratings

It's days later and I'm still thinking about this man. Full ass bus pulled over to the side of a state highway with the hazards on, stalking down the center aisle intoning "ALL RIGHT. WHO'S GOT IT. YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ON SPEAKER." I want to commission a statue of him. a hero. a king.
