“Freedom of Speech” as glorified in the US means hate speech, racism, and discrimination. Be happy that your don’t have US style free speech. I am as a Canadian.

It depends on the time of day.

I’m the morning I toast a Costco triangle ciabatta bun, butter it, and add two fried eggs, bacon or ham, and Swiss cheese.

In the afternoon I slice two slices of leftover meatloaf, put them in a pan, cover them with spaghetti sauce, and poach them. I toast two slices of bread then place the poached meatloaf on one slice and add lettuce, onion, green pepper, salt and pepper, Swiss cheese, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese, add some extra sauce, and top off with the other slice of toast.

I had a traveling farm hand from France who had never been trick or treating. She was 34. She was super excited to go so we took her when we took our kids out. At each house I said, “She’s 34 and from France and has never been trick or treating.” She got a bunch of candy and was very pleased.

I wrote COBOL years ago.

I’m currently in treatment for Hodgin Lymphoma. An old friend that I rarely see volunteered to take me to chemo every two weeks for six months. We have really good visits while I’m in the chair. Last week I got out my tablet and showed him my farm in Minecraft. I don’t like being asked how I’m doing or how I’m feeling because literally everyone asks and I get tired of answering. I prefer, “Do you need anything?” or “Can I help in any way?” I’m not good at asking for help. A friend who I have helped several times just showed up with her partner and four kids and their partners and got our place ready for fall. One of the kids partners was a plumber and he installed a couple of sinks for us. We have a bunch of people around us who have offered to help and meant it. One got up early and drove my son and his bike to school two days after chemo. Another has done groceries for us and taken my wife grocery shopping because she doesn’t drive. If you offer to help mean it and do anything you can to help. Otherwise, just be there and do things other than talk about cancer. Normalcy is welcome. If she wants to talk, talk. If she just wants you to be there, be there.

In the days before *nx, “terminal” meant a VT terminal and “clear” wasn’t a thing.

Is one of my favorites. Of course, most of you are too young to know what that means.

26 when your brain is almost certainly fully myelenated to 65 since the future of young people is far more effected by elected officials than the futures of retired people.

Ducks are delicious and eat the way you describe. If I eat ducks I’m eating those things once removed and enjoying it, too.

This is rage bait. How many times a year would this happen? Two? Three? There are more important things to talk about. That’s why they’re taking about this

Basically the same as we’re listed here. Obligate carnivores require a largely meat based diet. Some guys book where he claims is ok isn’t good enough proof. You need peer reviewed and published science with a large population over a long time to be sure.

Just very obvious stuff. Carnivores require meat.

Sure…this discussion came up a couple of months ago. Several people argued that feeding a herbivorous diet to a carnivore was animal abuse. Everyone arguing that point, including myself, was banned and all comments not supporting the group think in the echo bunker were removed.

You came with, “I know you are but what am I?” three times then told me that if I commented it meant that I cared what you thought. There was no irony at all, just sadness that I didn’t get a real discussion but a series of falacious school yard taunts. Weak.

It’s funny that you think you can tell me what I’m thinking. “If you reply it means you care about my opinion.” That is the height of arrogance.

We were done when you trotted out, “I know you are but what am I?”

“I know you are but what am I?”

Weak.

This is how I do it.

Your question is loaded with a sense of absolute moral superiority. I raise chickens for eggs and meat. I don’t abuse them or maim them. I treat them well, feed them high quality food, and provide clean, dry, warm housing that protects them from predators. The roam freely during the day and come home to roost at night. When it is time for them to die they die in the most humane way possible.

What vegans are talking about is pure, selfish arrogance. They’re going to take a carnivore and force it to eat an inappropriate diet to satisy their own selfish needs. Get a herbivore instead. Get a rabbit. They are cat like and the thrive on a vegan diet.
