>I encourage others to think and act more in support of our non-human cousins too! The extreme suffering we're imposing on them in the billions is not something we talk about often, but it continues to be one of the larger blights on humanity.

>And I'm getting optimistic that this century we can finally end it. Farming practices are improving, synthetic alternatives are improving.

>Also, in my recent experience, good old low-tech vegetarian and vegan food has improved massively worldwide over the last ten years; I encourage anyone who has tried it long before and given up to take second look; there are far more healthier and tastier options today than the "pasta and salad" you would often get ten years ago.

>(yes, even the shrimp matter. Many people have the impression that shrimp welfare is some kind of nerd thought experiment gone crazy, but the reality is, well ... ask your bot about "eyestalk ablation")
