so moby says
"a vegan diet is materially more efficient than an animal product based diet. by that i mean that you can feed lots more people with grain directly than by feeding that grain to a cow and then killing the cow. in a world where people are starving it seems criminal to fatten up cows with grain that could be keeping people alive."
well, yes. but why did nobody listen until moby said it?
unfortunately, i am torn between veganism & french patisserie brunches. the child in me, & the starry one naturally avoids animal products. always have, and once would have said "always will". and i still don't eat meats. i can safely say "never will", because my tongue doesn't like it.
but after meeting eroticbetty i have had my eyes fluttered open to the world of indulgence, richness, wonkaness. i guess as an artist, she has been the only one who could glorify such foods for me. who could make me forget the source..
& it's not that i am running about screaming for the animals. i am not even thinking of the animals themselves. (i mean it is really only their milks and their eggs..) i just sort of instinctively find it strange to ingest something which was walking around. i picture their adrenaline-filled protein chains (from the anguish of being slaughtered) morphing into depression and aggression & all a manner of questionable brain chemical things inside my body. it's gross. i don't like the word vegan. it sounds very much like the "holistic bullshit" betty abhors, but maybe that's just her influence. & once i go that far worrying about health, i go further, into fruitarianism, which feels lovely and buzzy,
but still i crave chocolateries, like homer's dream. little candy-girls, rich dimple puppies. all frolicking. gay music. prismatic.
so i sort of have the love for everything. i figure perhaps i'll indulge now, and when i have tasted most things i will go back to the child-ways.
what else has moby said?
