I am against animal agriculture for the same reason I am against sexism, racism, ableism, classism and homophobia.

The circumstances of a creatures birth does not dictate what it is “meant for”, every one deserves to live happy, healthily and with dignity, but some simply want to live.

  • All hobbies that don’t involve a screen. I’ve been having serious mobility issues, where standing for more than a few minutes is painful and I leave the house only in my wheelchair. It makes going to restaurants, concerts and events difficult. Makes going on hikes impossible or even existing in parks more painful than pleasurable.

    Appreciate your legs y’all. :(


  • I worked for a newspaper overseeing delivery drivers, one of which was regularly hotboxing his car while waiting for his route to be printed. He wasn’t subtle and he was always a little out of it. My bosses said it wasn’t our problem because technically he was a contractor, not an hourly employee. His route took place around 2 AM so with empty roads it hadn’t really been a problem, but I didn’t want indirect blood on my hands when it invariably DID become a problem.

    So I called in a suspicious driving report after he left the warehouse one night. The next night his route was being done by someone else. I worry that I caused him long term trouble by involving the police, but I try to balance that against the potential trouble of a crash.

    Idk, I don’t regret my choice, but I do still feel conflicted when I think on it.




  • Unfortunately Hannibal kinda sucks.

    Buress owns a building in Chicago; in 2017, he removed residential tenants in order to convert the property into Airbnb short-term rental units. In October 2019, he posted a tweet against Bernie Sanders’s call for rent control and asked for donations to an Illinois landlords association, leading to Twitter users criticizing him with the phrase “Hannibal Buress is a landlord”. Buress later stated that he regretted his now-deleted tweets, which he claimed were jokes meant to stir up controversy. He attributed the criticism he received to fallout over comments he made on Sanders’s age. Buress also said a housing charity had refused his $4,000 donation due to his perceived landlord advocacy.

    So him not caring who is paying him, long as he is getting paid, sorta tracks. :/









  • I smoked for a couple years but gave it up when a new GF complained. I know I’m lucky af for this… but I quit just over a single weekend. Physically it wasn’t a big deal for me. I only miss the social aspect of meeting new random strangers. This was about a decade ago and don’t have any cravings at all.

    Booze? I used to binge drink in my 20s, not healthy mentally or physically, but once I hit 30 it felt like my tolerance dissapered and hangovers lasted days. Only on the rarest occasions do I have a single cocktail at a restaurant. Like maybe every 6 months or so.

    Do a fair amount of CBD and CBN for pain relief, and around bedtime THC, but all that is edibles.
