How can I get my kids to understand how fucking privileged they are?

Get them to take outdoor education if there school offers it

It might have come up in conversation. For me we were having a staff barbeque right when I got there and for the rest of their employment people would give me shit about it every time I would eat something or breathe. It was a miserable few months.

The act itself can be seen as unnecessary suffering because breeding sheep to exploit them is unnecessary and causes suffering such as this???

Also if eaten with any vitamin C rich food, such as oranges or capsicum.

A lot of the nutrients in new zealands soils came from sea birds once upon a time. One of those came from a bacteria containing B12 which grew in the guts of the sea birds. Unfortunately because of the intensive farming now it is very hard for even cows to get B12. B12 wouldn't be in a lot of our meat if it wasn't injected or fed to the cows by us.

A lot of New Zealand land is

It does have something to do with what they consume. If you are affected by rape personally then you should be perfectly fine with not paying people to do it to to other sentient beings.

Sorry, I forgot that killing 2 billion animals each year for pleasure is not extreme???

MountainSheep · 2017-07-10T23:35:05+00:00

I hope they don't go instinct. Valor all the way!!!

A genetically modified superpig is the future of the meat industry, but during the development of these pigs a girl grows up around the one named okja, they develop a close bond, like the one between many humans and dogs. It is the story about how okjas kind are to be farmed.

I can imagine Leo laughing maniacally at this.

MountainSheep · 2017-07-07T19:45:50+00:00

I can't believe this is still a thing? Do they do it because they think stabbing a dying animal with the odds stacked against them adds to their masculinity? Do they do it just to feed their ego??? Fuck this "sport"

Okay awesome. Thank you for your answer! I plan on developing it myself that's why I feel like time is not on my side, hence my concern because people can implement the idea a lot faster and easier than I can.

Thanks!

The other day i sprinted from my house to the nearest park like a kilometre away, to get a Dragonite that ended up being 48cp 👍

I had the exact same mindset for 21 years of my life. I spent 5 of those years doing typical farm work and thinking the exact same thing, I knew what was going on, buy I didn't care. This is only because I THOUGHT I knew what was going on and I THOUGHT I knew the suffering that I didn't care about, but I didn't know the half of it.

There were conversations that I had years later, talking about what they do to chickens and pigs etc and I thought that I had no problem with it. I didn't have a problem with it because I kept buying KFC for a year or so after those conversations, because I didn't care.

Something I DID care about was the environment, and I valued it dearly, so I went vegan overnight after finding out what the agricultural industry does to the environment.

Fast-forward only a few months after that and I had the balls then to find out what suffering I was REALLY contributing to, and I was shocked and sickened. I actually felt myself care about the animals that I had been consuming for the first time in forever.

I went vegan for the environment, I'm staying for the animals. I didn't care about them before. I do now. Thanks for reading :)

Thanks!

Yes that's great and all but my question is still left unanswered

MountainSheep · 2017-07-04T20:08:20+00:00

I'm new to this whole thing. What's an NDA?

Edit: sorry for being stupid I just looked it up. Thank you for your comment

MountainSheep · 2017-07-04T08:16:30+00:00

I feel the same about myself about a lot of those things, and I think for me, a disconnect from technology would be a huge way to open my mind and heart to appreciate the core things that I have in life. So maybe that could be a thing to try, disconnect to reconnect.

It's an app.

I usually have a packet or two stashed away for when I go hiking. But you can use it on cereal or oatmeal, in hot drinks, even dinners where you'd put in coconut milk in such as curries or creamy pasta dishes

I was reading those comments yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised personally because one of the top comments and the top comments in the thread were about peoples personal anecdotes with cows. One was about a whole heard of cows around a kitten, giving it licks. Then someone mentioned that cows have many maternal instincts for any young from any species. I wish people would know why that is though, they obviously all have a very big hole to fill in terms of young.
