I wonder what they do with all that chick slush? Dog food probably, but I hope the answer is cheap protein supplements.

i cannot comprehend the vicious stupidity of killing an animal because it's eating food that you put out in your garden

Squirrels are smart little fuckers. They will tease your dog, steal prize vegetables out of the garden, and generally gnaw on and ruin things for no particularly good reason. They're also not usually a problem unless you have a stupid neighbor that is feeding them and causing an overpopulation problem.

If you really need to get rid of squirrels, you have to use a rat trap like in that video but with a big bolt behind the spring for extra tension and few nails where the arm comes down. No I don't have pics.

Choosing a lobster and want one that hasn't been in the tank for long? Choose one that has intact sensory tentacle things and intact eyes. The longer a lobster spends in a tank, the more likely it is that their faces will be eaten by other lobsters.

my favorite creepy-smart cephalopod story:

a smallish tourist aquarium kept some exotic fish near an open topped tank with an octopus. the fish kept disappearing and they found by putting a camera in the room that the octopus was sneaking out of its tank, slithering the distance to the other tank, and eating the fish. they didn't want it to do that, so they installed these lids on both tanks.

octopi, being smart fuckers, he wasn't deterred and figured out remove the lid on his own tank and the exoitic fish tank for another midnight feast. that's not the crazy part though. he carefully replaced both lids, even though it required additional effort for no immediate food-need benefit. this suggests that he may have had a mental model of the idea of among other things: others, guilt, and deception

and that octopuses name was albert einstein

Cooking a whole octopus on a grill. Somehow I don't think it will be seasoned well, but eh, suffering adds a good umami flavor:

octopuses are clever and there are lots of stories about them screwing around in labs
they're not amazingly clever though because apparently they do things like climb out of their tanks and go and hide in tiny gaps which aren't underwater, so if the scientists can't pry or coax them out of there they'll eventually suffocate

unless they're trying to commit suicide. perhaps the octopus is much less averse to death than we are, being as they are so short lived and willing martyrs to their offspring

all the self conscious bs about eating meat always seemed unrealistic to me. I dare you to watch unedited videos of wild animals hunting and feeding, literally ripping still living and breathing prey apart. Nature is a cruel bitch.

All animals were vegetarians before the original sin was committed and evil warped the natural order.

if you can't stomach slicing up a baby human and pouring boiling hot water over it and eating its flesh, you shouldnt eat animals either tbh

So long as the baby has been milk fed and kept immobile for its short life to ensure the tenderest of meat, I see no problem with this.

the replies itt have got me thinking seriously about being a vegetarian for the first time in a long time, and for straight ethical reasons, not the wishy washy utilitarian argument that animals eat more plants than if you eat the plants directly or whatever

more a kind of, if you start to consider the idea of there being an animal that there is no ethically acceptable way to kill and eat it, and going down that road and thinking, so what animals is it ethically acceptable to eat exactly? etc
