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.

  • First United submitted a cash bid of $3.5 million dollars. By contrast, Cicack said, The Onion’s bid contained only $1.75 million in cash, alongside a waiver from the Connecticut families setting aside any of their earnings from the auctioned assets.

    But Cicack challenged the use of this waiver, arguing it was “conditional and contingent” and “the equivalent of ‘monopoly’ money” and “simply has no value.”

    All money is monopoly money. It’s all fake paper that has no intrinsic value, because the true value is what everyone agrees on. Their waiver ensure more monopoly money to the plaintiffs than your monopoly money bid.

    You lost. Shut up. Go home.





  • Or is that the bridge too far?

    I certainly don’t think so. The right to live as you please should also extend to not live as you please. However just as we should make knowledgeable medical professionals available to those seeking gender or reproductive care, we should do the same seeking of life care.

    I get regular blood tests to ensure medication is working as intended, so mental health screening should be applied to those suffering from depression or other mental health issues to ensure that their given adequate alternatives. While still remaining available to those suffering chronic conditions that significantly affect quality of life. I am also a disabled person who live in persistent pain without a clear end date. Who is to say when exactly another person life suffering should be extended purely for the sake of extending life irrespective of the quality?

    At the end of the day, bodily autonomy is the ideal but informed consent given by medical professional about risks and alternatives is the method.











  • Then I saw my husband’s post. “God Bless America. God bless #45, 47.” I immediately texted, “I love you, but out of respect for me and all my liberal writer friends, can you please take down that post?

    Still, I know he is a good man and he would do anything for a family member or friend, which makes what he has done even more infuriating and even more painful.

    On Nov. 7, I saw my husband’s post was still up. It had more comments from Americans I believe had made a huge mistake two days earlier.

    “I saw that you didn’t take your post down, and that breaks my heart.” Then I walked out the door — devastated but determined — into the blue of a new day.

    Hon, you say he would do anything for family? But he couldn’t even take down a post. It’s time to start accepting that your mental image of him is not the same person who is in reality.
