Research from the American Heart Association suggests that plant-based diets lower all-cause mortality by 25%. It's also easy to get all key nutrients. This propaganda tweet is just another example of the National Pork Producers Council lobbying to maintain market share. #LiveVegan

As a veteran, I ordered a lifetime National Parks pass. But, how long until they are ravaged by this administration🤔

I cannot imagine the suffering, first for all of these animals. It must be worth the millions of lives that will perish. Why is the idea of being #vegan so far fetched? Has the fear of their misunderstanding not reached the culler's eyes, heart?
When we all suffer, still ignorance will be claimed.

If Mariann Budde’s sermon earlier this week—in which she addressed Donald Trump, personally and directly—came across as radical, that just says something about the times we are in, the bishop says.

Whelp, I was excited to participate in #bluesky. Unfortunately, I am not getting a great experience.
My feed won't scroll, it will only move to other feeds. I can't react or comment on anything. I messaged #bluesky and they said this is an ongoing problem that they have no timeline to fix. Great.
