I mean, fuck, how else does every other mammal end up giving milk? <i>It's because they've just given birth, dumbshits!</i> If cows weren't forced to be baby machines, they wouldn't always have just given birth and therefore wouldn't be lactating, and if their babies weren't taken from them <i>their babies would be drinking their milk.</i> WTF is wrong with people? That's how it works for every other mammal on the planet! Geez! (Sorry, just ranting at the world, absolutely not at anyone here.) I also find that I'm far less likely to get colds since I've given up milk. Also, I love how open-minded everyone here is about veganism, even those who aren't vegan themselves! A lot of other people who I'd think would be more revolutionary about this stuff get reeeeaally defensive about veganism, and even vegetarianism. It's incredibly bizarre.

But I get on very nicely with soy stuff. I've found it to be perfectly interchangeable with the stuff from animals, in recipes, in coffee, and on cereal (which I usually eat dry anyhow. I'm weird, OK?) And no doubt I trap the same mice repeatedly. I simply carry the bucket I caught them in down to an empty field and set them free. I think I've heard them whispering ("Sucker!") and giggling among themselves. I know it's crazy, and I think no less of anyone who deals with them more mercilessly, but I used to have mice for pets and cannot bring myself to kill them - their clever little paws, their bright eyes and neat little ears, the quick flicker of their whiskers.

I don't buy eggs from the eggmills. And yes, I know how we get milk. I also know that it can be done humanely, and the calves don't necessarily need to be taken too early for their development, and there are ways to milk a cow and make it a pleasant affair. I try to buy milk from those farms. And yes, if you release the mice near the homestead, they will just come back in, probably with friends in tow. "Dude. You will not believe this joint we found. Free peanut butter! Come on!" Honestly, the only eggs I’ve eaten are from the lady down the road who has chickens happily roaming around the barnyard and laying happy eggs.

You are making that stance more and more difficult to maintain. As for mice, the sophisticated Philly mice (who partied mightily in my apartment during my absence of many months) love peanut butter and chocolate. Bait with peanut butter, set a chocolate chip in the middle of it, and you will catch infinite mice. I use kill traps because I am not evolved enough to keep recatching infinite hordes of interchangeable urban mice, and dog has explained to me he is a herd dog, not a rat terrier. Mice are apparently too small for the patriarch to herd. As a dairy state milk and cheese addict I buy organic and la la la try to not notice I have made a deal with the devil.
