i love being in “all vegan” spaces. going to a vegan restaurant and not even having to think about what you can order because you can order everything!! going into a vegan supermarket and knowing that you don’t have to read every lable to look for some hidden animal derived ingredients.
and i love so much living on my own now and having everything in my flat be vegan. all the food in my kitchen, all the cosmetics i have. just having one space in my life where i can create my little world as i would like it to be and according to my ethical beliefs is so freeing
feel so gross and doughy
i am also vegan because cattle farming is the main cause of amazon deforestation and illegal land seizures fom indeginous brazilians
i am also vegan because the shrimp industry enslaves and abuses migrant fishermen from south-east asia
i am also vegan because animal agriculture is one of the main drivers of climate change, which most affects the poorest on earth
i am also vegan because european fishing vessels are systematically stealing fish from somalian waters
i am also vegan because we could directly feed an additional 1 billion people with some of the food we feed to livestock animals
i am also vegan because animal agriculture is a main driver of antibiotic resistance, which killed 1,27 million people in 2019
i am also vegan because i believe it is wrong to exploit the planet and the most vulnerable populations for the sake of sensory pleasure
this was too good to not post here
How do we break it to boomers with actual brain damage and nostalgic brainrot, and the 'tradwife' thirsting Andrew Tate fans that bodyfat, average attire, an overall lack of professional haircare or makeup, and non-conventionally attractive women existed and represented the vast majority of women across all of history?
And that, yes, in fact, their belief that "all women were hot skinny super models" in x timeframe is because they keep posting images of fashion models, actresses, idealized pinup art, and creepshots of actual teenage girls instead of middle aged, elderly and ordinary women from whatever era. Man, history sure was an insane person's exact perfect paradise consisting solely of people specifically they were attracted to--when filtered through a cherry picked lens of solely famous glamor girls instead of just women workers, family photos and life events taking place anywhere outside of Hollywood.
It really does irk me that one day people will assume all of the 21st century consisted of women who looked like whichever three actresses are most remembered one day and a few odd instagram filtered images--because already, a massive wealth of evidence already exists to the contrary for all of prior history and people are still somehow convinced everyone on Earth was a size zero with perfect hair and makeup for all of human history. That's just not how anything works. It's not how women work. It's not how humans work.
Another fun fact, the majority of surviving articles of clothing from eons ago were extremely petite, extremely glamorous, and unfathomably tiny. You know why? Because they ..weren't worn. This is a well known example of survivors bias in the fashion industry. Expensive gowns and teeny martini dresses were usually only worn once or twice, if not solely worn by manikins in high end stores. Most people kept a consistent and small wardrobe for their entire lives. New clothes were rare, often custom fit or taylored by family at home, or hand-me downs from sibling to sibling. These clothes that were worn to death and destroyed from decades of use were thrown away. They didn't survive to the modern era because they were overly worn, large, and unglamorous.
Think of it this way, you might save your prom dress or your wedding dress but you're not saving the teeshirt with spaghetti stains on it for future generations to see. Why would you? Those are the clothes that don't survive.
stupid i wish i was hot
Going on vacation as a vegan with a bunch of non-vegans can be so frustrating bc they all pick the restaurants and I have to make whatever half cooked veggies they have work and then they’re all like man I’m so full and I go back to the hotel room and eat the snacks I brought
I am becoming really fond of Kidnapfam 2.0 (Celegorm & Elured & Elurin) Because In my mind, its like the opposite of actual kidnap fam. Maglor and Maedhros kidnap Elrond and Elros and they become a family, while Elured and Elurin force Celegorm to be their dad.
They kidnapped him
phenomenally failed at rizzing up my friends cousins at her wedding
