Vegan diets are healthier than non-vegan diets because they result in lower rates of heart and circulatory disease and lower rates of all kinds of cancers.

A nonVegan society will never effectively fight crimes against the vulnerable โ€”- If you care enough to act - join the animal rights movement and start learning how to live vegan โš–๏ธ

[The movement for #AnimalRights continues. As research increasingly documents animalsโ€™ emotional lives, social bonds & cognitive abilities, the disconnect between knowledge & law becomes harder to justify]

87% of Americans Are Wrong About Protein Herbiโ“ฅore published a post on Ko-fi

87% of Americans still believe they need animals for protein. Research shows plant protein builds muscle just as effectively as animal protein when consumed in the same amounts - without the higher risks of heart disease, cancers, and diabetes.

The dairy industry is responding to the market attitudes and is setting on the trajectory of yeeting its unethical dairy production in favour of yield increasing, environmentally sustainable, non-animal-based milk protein.

@velshi.com For the record, BIDEN TELEGRAPHED THAT THING TO THE WHOLE WORLD FOR MONTHS BEFORE HE DID IT. Anyone who didn't know it was coming had their head in the sand, or was living under a rock! The cause of all the evil is the GOP insistence that their lies be on equal footing with the truth.

@velshi.com Congressman Bacon contradicts himself, claiming we should honor on our promise to the Iranian protestors, but NOT honor our promise to the Iran Nuclear Deal, and not honor Rump's promise to pull out of Afghanistan. Then he lies and says Biden didn't tell our allies before pulling out.

@velshi.com Luttig is right, but a little late to the game. The original sin that underpins all Rump's transgressions is the assertion by all GOPers that their proven lies are on an equal footing with objective, factual truth. And that is most prescient in Rump's murderous climate lies.

@colbertlateshow.bsky.social Last night, Colbert had Michale Pollan on, and Pollan likened our current moment of grappling with the nature of consciousness to the Copernican revolution. I then expected one of them to mention that it was Copernicus' birthday - 19 FEB 1473, but neither did...

Kudos to Stephen Colbert for standing up for himself and against tyranny.

I've always been a fan of his โ€” going way back to the Colbert Report years.

I enjoyed chatting with him in August. Here's a brief clip from our discussion.

14 million households now owe past due utility bills. Trump didnโ€™t create an energy boom - he created an affordability crisis that leaves families choosing between heat and hunger. This isnโ€™t leadership - itโ€™s neglect. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos
