I'm sure with RFK Jr on the case, everything will work out fine.

Right?

RIGHT?!?!?!

Pretty sure I’ve been sick with it since Tuesday.

smith83k.bsky.social•10 days ago

Oh, no! Get some rest!

Here we GOvid again.
🤬🤡💰💩🎪🤢👹🪦

The solution to this is simple.

Go vegan. You can’t get bird flu from tofu.

Just sayin. ☺️

mnfan80.bsky.social•10 days ago

It doesn’t really work this way. If you go to the grocery store or any restaurant that handles chicken you could be exposed.

You can get bird flu from the air. Doesn't matter if you go vegan.

bodhi-sangye.bsky.social•10 days ago

But, we’ve got bigger problems to face, and I’ll take my fancies one at a time. 🦋

itcamefromthe216.bsky.social•10 days ago

Fancy yourself masking up and staying up to date on your vaccinations.

bodhi-sangye.bsky.social•10 days ago

No I don’t wear masks anymore (unless I’m sick) but yes I do vaccinate. In fact I was vaccinated against the flu, Covid, and pneumonia just the other day.

bodhi-sangye.bsky.social•10 days ago

If everyone were vegan, there would be no poultry farms or cattle ranches, etc. from which such flus would arise. ☺️

itcamefromthe216.bsky.social•10 days ago

If everybody went vegan, we would have a worldwide shortage in various plants that we would be in direct competition with other animals. Veganism is not as sustainable as you purport.

There are some great resources out there on how eating vegan is super sustainable for the planet!

Thanks, but it's not for me.

Why do you think that..? Do you realize we use waaaay more land to grow crops for animal feed than for human consumption?

That's one of the most non-sensible things I've ever read

bodhi-sangye.bsky.social•10 days ago

You like cheese burgers. I did too, and that’s okay but veganism is absolutely as sustainable as I didn’t actually purport. All I said was animal borne diseases would be much of a thing if we weren’t eating them. ☺️

I've been vegan over ten years. Last night I had a cheeseburger for lunch. The buns were plant based, the beyond burger was plant based, and the bybel cheese was plant based. Thr only thing I've "sacrificed" was my support for the neo-nazi republicans who run all the slaughterhouses and gas chambers

Except humans are omnivores, not herbivores. But you do you.

bodhi-sangye.bsky.social•10 days ago

Oh, you mean like the 27 thousand tone of produce that’s thrown out every day in the US alone, not to mention around 70% of agricultural land in the US is used to feed live stock.

If the US alone stopped producing meat and dairy, we could grow enough food to feed around 400 million people.

bodhi-sangye.bsky.social•10 days ago

And that’s the US alone. Imagine if the whole world followed suite we could feed an ADDITIONAL 3.5 billion people. ☺️
