In order of what I believe has the most impact to least impact.

Being vegan. Less farmland utilization and better for the environment.

Using an ebike for travel. Environment and less roadkill.

Being mindful of my overall consumption and spending.

Allowing spiders free reign in my house.

Are you saying grass aren't plants? Why would it matter if the plant is consumable by humans if vegans are trying to minimize suffering?

I pour aggressively into the aeropress so that the fines settle on top. When I add the fresh water, I pour gently to not disturb the fines too much. I also don't stir for the same reason.

 
  • 40 grams of coffee ground fine to medium fine.
  • 24 hours in the fridge.
  • Filtered with an Aeropress allowing it to naturally drain, and then filling the Aeropress with fresh water to rinse the grounds and drain again.
  • This clip shows the press pushing the remaining coffee through after draining twice and the previously drained coffee poured on top.

Abolish the death penalty. It only exists to satiate the blood lust of politicians and is more expensive than life imprisonment (when people are actually guilty).

Which can really annoy people who see it as natural.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this considered a logical falicy?

Rich people are so cool! I'm so proud to be subservient to them.

End animal agriculture subsidies.

The government is taking my money and using it to support an industry that I am personally against.

No no no! It's the responsibility of the corporations to act ethically! Consumers bear no fault in how corporations decide do business!!

Yikes, sorry about that. I had the urge to sound ridiculous for a second. I agree. Money talks and we should all be mindful of what we say.

How far along are you? I wish you the best on your journey.

Why don't vegans ever consider a 90% approach

It would still require animals that have been genetically engineered to produce as much mass as quickly as possible to exist. Less suffering is good, but the real goal is to end this cruel and unnecessary system.

Wow, science actually does something useful for a change. There's no way I'm giving up my 40 piece McNuggets over some stupid germs 😂 😂 😂
