I would like to thank everyone for the wonderful success of my lighthearted totally five-star novel 'Cafe Puccini' which is one of my most popular books. If you enjoy a hearty laugh and loads of crazy characters it's available at Amazon or your favourite retailer.

Thank you Shaina for your most interesting question. I sometimes use AI for posts such as this because, as a recluse and introvert, I have no personal contact with actual humans. Therefore I have few opportunities to photograph vegans. My AI is always obtained from ethical sources. Best wishes.πŸ™

Every single vegan on this planet is my sincere friend and I welcome you into my heart with love, warmth and kindness. I cherish all vegans and animal protectionists for everything you are doing to assist, protect and speak loudly for the precious animals everywhere in need of our help.

We shouldn’t even be discussing animal export. It’s cruel beyond description and the continuation of it reflects our moral decline. Please choose veganism instead ~

Trump pardons turkeys ahead of Thanksgiving Sparing a bird ahead of the holiday is a time-honoured US presidential tradition.

This is archaic and really not funny. The turkey is being pardoned for what crime exactly? Breathing? How fortunate it is to be granted clemency whilst all of the other 'criminal' turkeys get their necks snapped #pardoningtheturkey #thanksgiving #veganfortheanimals

Not nearly enough people in the world understand that this is not only true but also central to who we are as a species.

I agree completely. Pigs are beautiful, intelligent and loving, affectionate animals. Using them in derogatory way to demean a creature like Trump a profound negative against pigs. They deserve more than being compared to human slime.

In a future world, when humans have come finally to understand the true meaning of horror and cruelty, people will look back on these brutal times with intense revulsion. They will never comprehend why it took us millennia to stop eating corpses.

I don't understand either!

Os perus correm e voam, enxergam trΓͺs vezes melhor que os humanos, sΓ£o altamente sociais e inteligentes, comunicam-se com mais de 20 vocalizaΓ§Γ΅es distintas e a pele da cabeΓ§a e do pescoΓ§o pode mudar de cor dependendo do humor. ~ PARE com a violΓͺncia; celebre pacificamente.

Humans must be the voice for all other species, and we must not be cowards. We must speak for them, fight for them and mourn them when we fail.

Thanks for the hugs and support Caroline. All we veganites need to recharge batteries occasionally because it takes a lot of power to shine a light on the plight of all our precious animal friends.

It brings great joy to me when I see here on Bluesky how much my fellow vegans and animal lovers enjoy life and the extraordinary work they are doing to save, protect and care for all our animal friends. If we could harness all that joy and power, we could change the world.

I dream that one day all humans will catch up to vegans and evolve into a community that will live by a simple code of love, generosity and respect, with care and protection of every other human and non-human on Earth.
If we do that, ALL our global problems will heal themselves.

Anger has power, but it's a negative power.

Combine anger with low intellect and problems worsen.

Love has power, and it's a positive power.

Combine love with intelligence and problems will be resolved.

Vegans are peaceful, intelligent people.

Caring problem-solvers.
