I’m with you, all this hate going around is ridiculous!
Tumblr:
- <p> Me: The sky is blue.
- Tumblr: First of all, trigger warning, you bitch. Blue was the color of the smurf doll I had that got ruined in the wash. Secondly, my brother's girlfriend's cousin's step-sister said the sky was indigo, and she would know, because she studies colors in college. COLLEGE. Also, way to oppress other fucking colors and completely erase light blue, dark blue, and blue-ish green! Educate yourself, you ignorant piece of shit trash! You think you know everything but you have no clue! Thanks to you I am triggered and about to kill myself! Hope you're happy you fuck!</p>
Why am I vegan?
Ethical Reasons:
- You shouldn’t eat animals for convenience
- You shouldn’t take a life because you like how it tastes
- Farm animals and marine life feel pain and DO NOT WANT TO DIE!
- You have to artificially inseminate cows/goats so they produce milk
- Dairy cows get their baby calves stolen from them for veal EVERY YEAR
- When male chicks are hatched at egg farms they get thrown into a grinder
- All marine life gets caught in nets including dolphins, sharks and whales
- This means we are losing vital marine life for “seafood”
- Why do we love cats and dogs, but eat cows and pigs?
Health Reasons:
- My energy levels have increased dramatically
- My skin cleared up almost instantly
- My digestion has gotten so much better due to eating fibre rich foods
- There is no need to restrict calories on a HCLF vegan diet
- Dioxin, one of the most toxic substances IN THE WORLD is found in dairy products (Freedman and Barnouin, Skinny Bitch)
- High dairy intakes blocks iron absorption (Robbins, Diet for a New America)
- You eat all the hormones and pesticides that the animals are fed
- Meat, dairy and eggs are extremely high in saturated and trans fats
- You are literally eating DECOMPOSING FLESH
- Eating chicken or fish is linked to colon cancer (American Journal of Epidemiology)
- NO FIBRE IN ANIMAL PRODUCTS = CONSTIPATION YUCK
- Dr Anthony Youn - eggs are almost as bad as smoking: eating 3-4 per week may harden arteries leading to stroke
- Large eggs contain 210mg of cholesterol (8x more than COW meat)
- Vegan proteins may reduce the risk of cancer, obesity, and CVD by promoting increased glucagon activity (McCarthy, 1998)
- Disgusting pus in milk (called somatic cells) -> 180 MILLION somatic cells in an 8oz glass of milk. Pus is a response to an infection e.g. a pimple. YOU ARE DRINKING PIMPLE PUS
- SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE REVERSED CHRONIC DISEASES WITH A VEGAN DIET
- Meg Wolff reversed cancer, Robert Dew reversed heart disease, Natala Constantine reversed diabetes (Kathy Freston, Veganist)
Environmental Reasons:
- The business of raising animals for food is responsible for 18% of global warming (Veganist)
- Animal agriculture uses 30% of the land surface on the planet (Veganist)
- It takes 10 times as much fossil fuel to make one calorie of animal proten vs one calorie of plant protein (Veganist)
- Methane gas from animal agriculture is 25-100 times more damaging than carbon dioxide (Cowspiracy)
- UN: Animal agriculture is the leading cause of resource consumption and environmental degredation
- Raising livestock JUST IN THE US uses 34 TRILLION gallons of water (Cowspiracy)
- This is because the animals you eat, need to eat water intensive grains
- One McDonalds quarter pounder needs over 660 gallons of water to be produced, this is two months worth of showers.
- If overfishing doesn’t stop, we will see fishless oceans by 2048 (Cowspiracy).
- Marine life does not recover quickly, and the nets used are so big they can catch whales, dolphins and other marine life.
- An acre of rainforest is cleared EVERY SECOND (Cowspiracy)
- The leading cause of this is to graze animals and grow their feed crops
- Palm Oil is responsible for 26 million acres being cleared, however, livestock is responsible for 136 million acres being cleared, making it the leading cause.
- The Amazon rainforest could be GONE in the next ten years.

I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. And I don’t want to get to the end, or to tomorrow, even, and realize that my life is a collection of meetings and pop cans and errands and receipts and dirty dishes. I want to eat cold tangerines and sing out loud in the car with the windows open and wear pink shoes and stay up all night laughing and paint my walls the exact color of the sky right now. I want to sleep hard on clean white sheets and throw parties and eat ripe tomatoes and read books so good they make me jump up and down, and I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift.

No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
Nelson Mandela (via purplebuddhaproject)
People You Don’t Need in Life
- Anyone who thinks you laugh too loud
- or too often
- Anyone who thinks your fashion choices are weird
- or embarrassing
- Anyone who hates the sound of your voice
- or seeing you cry
- Anyone who says they ‘just don’t get’ you
- and never make an effort to understand
- Anyone who sees you get excited about something
- and decides you need to find your chill
whenever i’m with my girl or we’re facetiming, i always stare at her and smile and she always looks at me innocently and asks “what?” and i always reply “nothing” but i wonder how she doesn’t know that i’m staring because her eyes are my favorite color and her smile is my favorite smile and i’m trying to keep my cool but i can’t because i’m way too in love
Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.
Marianne Williamson (via twloha)
Sometimes being in love doesn’t mean you’d die for the person, but rather that you would live another day for them.
