Artist. Vigilist. Protectress.

Stop all war. Close all slaughterhouses. Tend to all life in need.
To those who believe themselves compassionate, maybe even woke, if you pay for this, you are far from compassionate. Like bombing children, it is diabolical.

The great truth is that we suffer as equals.

For love's sake, heal the gaping holes in your humanity and help us end all of our cruelties.
They are scared to death 👺They smell blood & death. They will be killed soon. Unnecessarily Unacceptable Unjustifiable. Killing animals is WRONG. #LiveVegan live a peaceful life 🙏

Freeze branding is painful mutilation too 👺Making fun of this ‘K9’ brand is awful mockery. Animal farming is backward and outdated dumbfuckery. #EndAnimalSlavery #LiveVegan don’t accept abuse in your life 🙏

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Is Your latte and diary products really worth that much, that animals have to suffer immensely⁉️🖤😔
#Drenching a #dairy cow 🥺👺Often done after calving, the calf is long gone ..taken away from her straight after birth. Many #milk slaves suffer from hypocalcemia or milk fever. To prevent them from collapsing they are given calcium and other supplements #DitchDairy NOW 🙏

Newborn calf hung over a fence 😱To let the fluids flow out …(which is a wrong backward procedure). What kind of life he or she entered? A life as an animal slave ?Or will it be a very short one for slaughter. Either way is sad. #EndAnimalExploitation #DitchDairy #LiveVegan 🙏

This is what the ENTIRE GOP is trying to hide.

Again, Congress has been briefed on this. Congress knows this, has known this for some time. The entire GOP is covering this up. They know. They do not care about victims. They are accomplices after the fact and they all belong in prison next to Trump
“He raped me.”

“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”

“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”

Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

If we actually want “Peace on Earth” to be more than an unachievable fantasy, more than a once a year parroted phrase, more than empty rhetoric, then there exists an urgent & essential imperative that we cease our participation in, & normalisation of violence.

New article from me today about the new study of Finland's basic income experiment that found recipients of unconditional income had 33% better mental health than the control group that got the same amount of money with conditions. I also dive into a lot of other evidence about UBI and mental health
Finland Gave Two Groups Identical Payments. One Experienced 33% Better Mental Health.
New research from Finland's basic income experiment proves that simply trusting people with money—not just the money itself—significantly improves mental health

It must end.
Horrific abuse of animals is widespread throughout animal agriculture, including on the tiny share of farms that are not factory farms.

Look at these assholes using their medieval torture device! Don't support this industry with your money.
How many times they mutilated this cow? 👺The scumbag fuckers nearly put the poor animal on fire 🔥 Don’t start about animal welfare …there is no welfare in animal slavery 😡#EndAnimalExploitation #LiveVegan no excuse for animal abuse ✌️

McGovern: "The reality is that some people's premiums are going up 100%, and their big grand plan is to give people an 11% coupon. I mean, this is laughable. It is pathetic ... they are unbelievably out of touch. Republicans have spent a year screwing over the people they represent."

‘Pig pulling’ 👺Grabbing piglets by their hind legs. The fHarmers pick out the smaller ones to have groups of equal sized piglets. The way they treat them here is ‘gentle’ compared to when there is no camera running. #EndAnimalExploitation #LiveVegan say no to animal abuse 🙏

This shows how smart piglets are 😍Smarter than most dogs. Smarter than most humans. More important: they are fellow sentient beings. Why abuse and kill them for food you don’t need? #LiveVegan Do No Harm 🙏

The human species wasn't always here and it won't always be here. Life will go on. While we're here, I hold that our #1 job is to elevate our collective humanity in forging a world worthy of every life born into it, human and non-human.

Close all slaughterhouses. End all wars. Tend to all in need.

When MI6, Canada, and Europe all start preparing for war at the same time, it’s not coincidence. It’s coordination.

I couldn’t agree more with this perspective. It’s such an important message. It is this kind of message on "things that matter" that I’d like to see as the content of media ads. In any case, well worth the watch.
