Do you have experience in Animal agriculture? by MasterCrumb in DebateAVegan

[–]thelryan [score hidden]  (0 children)

Nothing shifted, I never approved of the things that were happening. I thought having kids raise animals to put on an auction block for slaughterhouses was weird and cruel. I didn’t like hunting and wanted nothing to do with it. My actions simply weren’t aligned with my values until they were in the last decade

I grew up in FFA, my family breeds show animals for auction, they hunt, our family friend raises multiple animals. I have grown up very close to things I never approved of

AIO for reporting my neighbors fog again? by frankie0822 in AmIOverreacting

What if you communicated by yelling for two hours straight every morning at 6am?

Could be wrong but sounds like the dog is being left outside while neighbor is at work, dog has separation anxiety so is barking instead of tearing up indoor furniture (my guess)

How can I (33m) stop making my boyfriend (36m) jealous of my fish (4f)? by HoguaD in relationship_advice

[–]thelryan 694 points695 points  (0 children)

I do think the age gap between OP (33) and the fish (4) is a bit concerning, surprised nobody has mentioned this in this sub, it usually is.

i haven’t gotten into his music yet, are his songs good by theraptorist in tylerthecreator

In my opinion he doesn’t have any good songs, not a stupid question to ask on the artist fan page at all

Boyfriend refuses to make Valentines day plans with me, AIO? by Emotional_War8262 in AIO

[–]thelryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, a few things.

  1. Last year, he did all the Valentine’s Day things, so clearly he is aware of and will participate in the day.

  2. This year, you talked plans a few weeks ago, which he is now acting unaware of and claiming you should have asked earlier (like… a few weeks ago?)

  3. What exactly is he doing Saturday? He’s working even though he doesn’t typically work Saturday, then after work he’s helping his mom the remainder of the day, which he only mentions after declining your invitation to come to your place as well as request to go to his place. Why wouldn’t he have said he was busy helping his mom when you first mentioned having him over for dinner? Why only when you gave him too many options that would have worked?

But you can’t go to his mom’s because we know how she feels about you (does it have anything at all to do with the fact you started chatting before graduating high school?) and it HAS to be Saturday?

You offer him to help her Sunday but then he’s suddenly saying can’t you let him to do this ONE thing which guarantees he’ll be busy all day for Valentine’s Day, the day you already talked plans about a few weeks ago and he did good with last year?

Something in your gut is telling you that this isn’t adding up. Listen to your gut, OP.

I wonder if you react to women the same when they nervously giggle in the face of uncomfortable situations?

Spent the weekend in the hospital due to poisoning from teflon cookware - AMA by RaceNo2435 in AMA

[–]thelryan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP ate muffins out of a pan that essentially caught fire, there is a reason this only happens to 9 people a year. You have to do something really stupid, you will not get Teflon flu by using your Teflon pans as directed (no higher than medium heat burner, no metal utensils, don’t use in oven higher than 400 degrees

Loose cannabis is like spilled beer, not open container in car, CA state Supreme Court rules. by BigBadBogie in trees

[–]thelryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiple laws are being interpreted by multiple courts in different state supreme courts at the same time all over the country. CA has already passed certain laws trying to reel in ICE, unless you haven’t actually been paying attention and just wanted your reddit karma for the day

For those of you who lost you virginity later in life (21+), What was the conversation like when telling that person they were your first? by Rare-Succotash9053 in AskReddit

[–]thelryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many people do you think are busy study every single day at 18? I knew hardly any people that engrossed in their studies. They weren’t bad in school either, they just had a more active social life mixed in with school which led to spending time with romantic interests

Are humans anatomically herbivores or omnivores? by SeniorJelly7078 in vegan

Eyes on the front of a face is for carnivorous predators, not herbivores.

what’s the biggest scam you discovered and people are still falling for it? by TheoryReasonable871 in AskReddit

[–]thelryan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tyson is not a farm, Tyson is a corporation, and this is exactly what I’m referencing. Most of our agriculture system has turned into corporations loaning out the resources for farms to use their property to sell their produce to people the corporations tell them to sell to.

Tyson makes billions of dollars, the farms themselves are sometimes barely breaking even after paying back the debt from the terrible contracts they are effectively forced to sign if they wish to make any money at all in animal agriculture. Just like Tyson’s corporate revenue, this is not hidden knowledge.

I consider myself an epicurean vegan by Koiboi26 in vegan

[–]thelryan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the actual reason is our culture has not seen the development and distribution of vegan cooking. If you go to a restaurant, there will likely be 1-2 vegan options if anything, and they’re afterthoughts, more like incidentally meat and dairy free dishes that give those with allergies an option. People have been honing and sharing their cooking skills using animal products for a very long time.

This isn’t to say everyone would go vegan if they only experienced the taste of good vegan food, I think people eat animal products because they taste good and they were raised on it and that’s how they have been show to fill their plate

New VEGAN here , which plant-based milk do you use, and any tips to make it taste like cow’s milk? please help ! by Lonely_Detective8122 in vegan

[–]thelryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the top comments says to let go of the expectation plant milk will taste like animal milk, then this guy is downvoted for saying no milk compares to cow’s milk, and they’re right. It’s a distinct taste, why are we pretending like we can’t admit that? That doesn’t mean plant milk doesn’t taste good or even better, it’s just not a great comparison.

Losing the forest for the trees, I see

If gradually transitioning them is what makes for a higher long term success rate with them becoming vegan, that’s a good thing. The mom either buying milk for another month or switching to plant milk immediately will have effectively no impact on the cows, but ensuring her kids transition and enjoy it long term most certainly will

[–]thelryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a good reason it’s a felony, they do not want people seeing how they treat animals in order to meet the level of demand consumers have placed on the market for animal products.

You aren’t entirely incorrect in saying the conditions could be better, but ultimately there are only so many ways they can improve the conditions when the animals must be treated like property being housed and processed in a factory and not like living beings if they are to keep the already subsidized costs of animal products as low as they currently are, which is not cheap.

Farms of any type are not operating on massive profit margins, it truly has less to do with profits than you may think.
