See myself in them
The way people hate
just superiority ?
I hate that
Sophisticated people just looking for your glamour of supruriorty and next free whatever it is
That you didnt work feet and bone for
I have felt treated like them in civilized countries
Shit In a way
Getting nowhere , getting murdered
Hearing truth
Screams of freedom over the sunrise
Out there in the dark
In the truth isn't that you and me
In the pitch black
The scream of the wolf who eats
trees flowing the wind and the shinning of the sky
The flowing water and the earth
What is it , you make in your mind
Let me ask you are you , are you happy ?
I bet no one will say ok watermelon I am happy
It's on the inside and within , what you want to see
Both people from India and I have cows and land
we literally blast your ears
My friend siad
Hey watermelon I will blast your ear , in broken english
I said cool
He did with a glove filled with air
All I heard was ringing
He did it to all of his friends
So I am taking him to wood brning pizza and bocce ball
He will fit in just fine , I respected that , he didn't mean it , harmfully

Did you guys hear about that recent discovery that plants "scream" when they're cut or harvested?
Anyway, animals are cool. I respect animals, that's why I only eat the ones that are raised on open fields and those I kill myself.
That's about all I know how to respond to this post with, because most of it is just rambling nonsense really.

Yeah I heard about the plant thing. Trippy, but makes sense. They communicate in all kinds of ways, even trees can move and dance if you take the time to see it

I totally believe they scream. When you spend time with them they seem every bit as alive as animals. And when you watch time lapse footage it's obvious they react to stimuli in much the same way as animals, just in super slow motion
Actually part of why I don't support veganism wholeheartedly. Life kills life to survive, always has and always will.

Animals deserve top respect, since we assholes are always dominating their habitats and resources. Hunting is OK as long as you kill the animal respectfully, 1 shot kill easy quick death, hunt only old over populated animals for example, and then every part of it used wisely

Try it. I think it's a good thing to do if you're willing to eat what other people have killed. A while back I started thinking how weird it was that so many people who eat meat don't have the will to kill themselves, I actually went vegetarian for a bit only because I felt like a fake eating meat and not having it in me to kill my own food

Eye contact with an animal always trips me out
Do they know eyes are for looking?
Do they know there's a conscious being behind those eyeballs, registering what it sees and acting on it?
What are they thinking when they're looking at you?
When my cat wants my attention he always looks me right in the eyes and meows at me. When I get up from petting him and he doesn't want me to he'll half-heartedly swipe at me, then if I look back he pretends he was just stretching and avoids eye contact (every time, it's hilarious)
Walking through the woods this summer I came face to face, probably 8 feet away, with a huge black bear that was stopped maybe 4 feet up a tree, staring me right in the eyes. Looked up, and her cubs were up in the top of the tree. For some reason just the eye contact alone felt like communication. It felt like she was saying "IDK who you are, you're probably okay and things will be cool if you keep walking, but come closer and I'll eat your face"

Maybe a dark take, but I cannot imagine killing a greater primate. Like for food or otherwise. Their eyes are so intelligent and soulful. I don't even particularly like primates (except humans, kinda) but they should not be pets or food or experiments. Every one we have ever tortured in the name of science is a crime akin to torturing a human. They 100% understand what is going on, they have families and emotions. They understand humor and love.
Same with dolphins tbh. Maybe that makes me an intelligence racist but some creatures should be left alone

For me it would depend on which ape. Of course I'd kill anything that's wanting to kill me, but there's a big difference between chimps and orangutans. Both very intelligent, but orangutans are gentle, chimps are one of the biggest assholes in nature.

It took over 24 hours to wear off
They know I dont do well with drinking but this time I did very well , talked well
Mostly about traveling and goles
Besisdes the op that was just a late night thought
Mostly the whiskey talking
But not really

Wont be drinking very much like that anytime soon

Animals are extensions of ourselves just like we are extensions of each other and the rest of the universe.
By eating them or not eating them you are only transforming yourself, that it is, the universe.
There's a lot of arguments to be made for against eating them but "plants feel pain too" is not a valid argument for eating meat since by raising an extra animal you are ensuring that even more plants are eaten on top of the animal.
I don't believe we should be raising as many animals as we do. I wholeheartedly believe that it is a mistake for us to eat meat 3 times a day year round or close to it...I don't believe it should be done nearly that much and especially at this point in our evolution/development.
Our bodies will adapt to whatever we feed it anyways.
Cows are nice enough to give their milk, chickens we take eggs from, sheep wool, and so on. It seems like there is not an equal exchange at all between us and them and we have basically turned into a parasite that takes as much as we can while breeding them to be less and less capable of doing anything but provide for us...that relationship, karmic speaking, will automatically be its own undoing. It can not last since it is based on an unequal exchange.
The relationships need to be harmonious with nature. Other animals are so far above us in many ways when it comes to being this way...without even trying or needing to.
Just like governments need to have just reasons for taxing and directing the citizens or they will eventually be their own undoing, we, as rulers, need just reasons for what we do or what we do can never last.
After more than 200,000 years of human history we have some nice pyramids all over the world and as well as all of the modern stuff but most of that will not last as long as those pyramids which some peoples were nice enough to make as permanent as they possibly could to be passed down...
There are a lot more plants out there than there are mammals. We should probably chill out, at least a little bit, that's all I'll say. If you want to get upset because I said that then that's kind of weird to me...but I know a lot of people who would...either out of ignorance or because they deep down feel like their way of life is being chastised and they can't handle that. You got to be able to handle that sort of thing or you can't grow. You got to be able to see the other side. You got to be able to move to the other side when the other side is doing it right. That's how the world could survive.
