Improv AZ Pants off Light Rail; It's not too late!... →
Started 2012 off with an angry (boy)friend, anxiety attacks, nightmares, crying, and an email from my apartment complex starting with PAY YOUR RENT even though I’m up to date.
2011 was a really shitty year for me and I guess 2012 is following suit.

Why Am I Vegan?!

well, because maybe my body isn’t a burial site for dead animals!

Breath fails me.
But all of the above (not least the sex hormones) are fine for your infant.
No no guys their right. Soy is horrible for male babies and that’s why they also warn to not eat chocolate, cookies, bread, cook with vegetable oil, eat at most restaurants, eat crackers, chips, french fries, most frozen foods, canned soups, most if not all Asian...

My French/English science lesson went really well! It was surprising to see how the two groups approached the lesson. Those given the lesson in French were so attentive and asked lots of questions (in English but whatcha gonna do?) and were super attentive even though they didn’t really understand. One student actually managed to translate some of the words on the quiz. The students given...
Tomorrow I’m going to a junior high school where my mom teaches so I can tell them about the science of color in both English and French. I’m going to wear a sheer silk blouse with planets on it (stoooollleeee iittt). SCIENCE!

I'm only creative when I'm unhappy
I realize that’s not a new thing but seriously fuck this shit.
Anonymous asked: i really like your blog, but it makes me sad that you have so much hatred towards people who aren't vegan. I don't think you should look down on anyone just because they have differing lifestyles. I also feel like you put yourself on kind of a high horse and you feel superior to other people just because you are vegan. seems a little self richeous. I don't support animal cruelty,...
I’m terribly frightened that I might have bed bugs. Having a “pest” company come in to search for them today. Please take a quick second to hope I don’t have any with me.
Going to start exercising again so I can lose 10-15 pounds and be strong and fragile at the same time.

I ran out of food money a week ago so I’ve been mostly eating frozen french fries. Thank goodness for vitamins and free food events.
One thing I absolutely cannot stand is the propensity for people in this country to forget how lucky they have it and then to use their privilege to worsen the lives of those who already have it so poorly.
I understand that race, gender, sexual identity, and social status are still a big problem in this country but we really need to sort out our priorities.
Case in point that propaganda and...
It seems to me that when people complain about how selfish and ableist and classist vegans are because obviously “poor people” can’t afford to go vegan they are saying two things:
1. That “poor people” do not care about their health (or are somehow not in a position to care about their health), that they will always choose fast food, that “poor people”...

Studying to be an art teacher
and all I can think about is making art all day and going on wonderful vacations and buying whatever I want. I know the last two are capitalist and horrible but I can’t help it; my life has been nothing but stress and poverty for such a long time (although my mother and nutritional assistance have been a big help) and I’m looking forward to living a life that has vacations in it, a...
So I might be allergic to soy
I’ve developed some sort of intolerance and I need some advice from people who have it too. I try not to buy processed foods but soy, like corn, is in practically everything so how do you get along?
jaaaaade asked: i want all the bickering amongst vegans to stop because i want every able vegan to work to extend our privilege of choice in matters of health and food to everyone. the back and forth between all of us about what excuses people make to NOT be vegan isnt doing anything either ya know?
jaaaaade asked: im not sure if your comments in your reblog were directed at me or the op, but, i didnt mean to imply i dont feel a sense of urgency in my fight to end animal suffering. i dont want to have light hearted discussion about the topic because it is not a light hearted issue. i am not an advocate of a nice approach in discussion with those who take part in the unnecessary slaughter of animals, because...

That even if Lewis Caroll didn’t specifically rape the little girls in his harem, that he kept multiple girls under the age of eight in his company and took nude photos of many of them on top of being a religious fanatic (no surprise there).
There are lots of authors who were horrible people that still managed to shit out a good book but if I have said it once I’ve said it again we...

You’re using an extremely small minority to describe a majority of able-bodied, financially able people who are too lazy/selfish to make an ethical choice. I don’t care about anyone’s feelings or how hard it is for them. Anyone who has the ability to use the internet to make countless excuses as a release from guilt also has the power to do research to make a...

Ooooh that’s such a good argument! I wish I thought of that one; damn.
Thinking there is a purpose to life makes it seem like there is something to achieve beyond one’s own happiness. It turns living into work and puts aside one’s well being and the well being of others to get to something nonexistent. It makes failures out of the destitute and winners out of those who either had their “success” handed to them or got it by ruining the...

abookamind asked: Just wandered onto your blog and wanted to point out that by "small minority" I mean people that have multiple circumstances preventing them from being vegan. Simply not having money is a silly excuse to not be vegan, some of the poorest people I know are vegans. Knowledge is key. I myself was a vegan while homeless and traveling the country on no money, and with that knowledge I knew...

Just a small point
I didn’t realize that the original poster in this incredibly annoying string of threads meant low income individuals when referring to a “small minority.”
If you look over my past posts (or perhaps I should just tell you?) you’ll find that I in no way think low income individuals/households are a “small minority.” Considering in the United States the number of...
