Eh I can't give up cheese

But killing cows does suck, they're cool. Like big cowy dogs.

I'm drunk, I apologize.

But also life is just random coincidence and we're probably the only place it exists and it seems like everything is out to get everything else already. Fuckers can't eat me, I'll eat them. I'm coming for you, flesh eating bacteria. I have teeth. They're real creepy. Like bones in my face made to chew things. FACE BONES.

I mean I've seen the videos. It's no worse than what I've seen in nature shows. Earth is a violent beautifully bloody place. There is nothing more abundant than the slow tearing of flesh for nourishment as the unfortunate prey suffer their last breath. It's impersonal and necessary. I like animals and treat any animal I encounter with kindness and that's not mutually exclusive to embracing the raw animalistic instinct in us that makes us formidable hunters and incredible at processing a carcass to its maximum utility. If i didnt have access to farmed meat i would not think twice about hunting that same animal. Humanity has figured out ways to use the bones, the collagen, the hide and organs of an animal and fully appreciate these gifts. While we definitely can make improvements on how to raise and harvest I am not ashamed of the fact that humanity has had the ingenuity to take control of our own nourishment and mass produce food that once used to be inaccessible to everyone but the wealthy. I have watched these videos and I've seen different slaughtering techniques. The sheep's purpose is to reproduce to feed other animals. They don't create or advance. They exist because other animals need to eat them. If we can feed ourselves without upsetting the natural balance I'm all for it. Humanity reproducing and spreading, building, changing the planet, rivers, swamps and other habitats is what is actually harmful to wildlife and yet these things continue to happen. We insist on reproducing and while I've seen plenty of hope with the advent of birth control and education, we still are a threat to biodiversity. Want to reduce meat consumption? Keep up the low birth rates! We can do it!
