Did you know that the United States Department of Agriculture has decided that the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act doesn’t apply to poultry, who make up 98 percent of all land animals slaughtered for food? As a result, nearly 9 billion animals each year are killed in the most horrific and brutal ways.
Please take 20 seconds to speak out against this unconscionable animal abuse by signing Mercy For Animals’ petition calling on the USDA to start protecting chickens, turkeys, and all other poultry under the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act: www.change.org/p/tell-usda-pro…
Investigations by Mercy For Animals, including shocking hidden-camera exposés of slaughterhouses owned by Tyson and Foster Farms, have repeatedly documented birds violently shackled upside down, painfully shocked with electricity, cut open, and sometimes even scalded alive in hot water tanks.
These abuses must end! But we need your help.
Mercy For Animals has filed a historic petition urging the USDA to start including poultry under the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act. The USDA needs to hear from as many Americans as possible that we want meaningful regulations that end the cruelest slaughter practices.
Please sign our petition calling on the USDA to include protections for poultry under the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act. Once you’ve signed, please share this petition on social media!
As some have written:
We should be grateful for these animals as a food source. They should be treated with respect.
Humane Slaughter act is meaningless if it excludes majority of the animals slaughtered in US.

Why I Support the 2019 Lion King Remake
I've always enjoyed the Lion King fandom, and until now I've considered it to be one of the few positive fandoms out there. Sure, you'd find the odd rabid fan of Kopa (Simba's non-canon lost son), but you'll get rabid fans in any fandom, (and there are plenty of Kopa fans who are completely normal, in case anyone here thinks I'm slamming on Kopa fans as a whole). But overall the fandom has been open to everyone, everyone is allowed to enjoy any characters and almost any head canons they want, OCs are welcomed, and people enjoy seeing each other's fan art and fan fictions. The fandom even took The Lion Guard in stride for the most part, which
Bill Potts: Token Character or Frequency Illusion?
A few months ago, I had a conversation with someone about Bill Potts from series 10 of Doctor Who, and (putting aside political orientations regarding LGBT subjects), I mentioned her as an example of an LGBT character being presented as a normal human being. Personally, I genuinely liked Bill. I thought she was friendly, empathetic, had a short but decent character arch, and I loved the professor-student dynamic between her and the Doctor. But apparently this guy didn't share my sentiment. The guy exploded, saying Bill only existed to be a token gay character, that she "brought up her sexuality every five minutes," that she was an unreali
No Words
I feel like I should say something about the pro-abortion law recently passed in New York, as well as the Virginia governor's statements, but I honestly have no words.
For those who don't know, New York recently passed a law which, in essence, legalizes partial-birth abortions, decriminalizes the killing of unborn children for any reason, and also allows non-doctors to perform abortions at all stages of pregnancy. The excuse is "if the mother's health is in danger or the fetus is not 'viable,'" but the wording of the law is extremely vague, leaving the determination entirely up to the abortionist, who now doesn't even need to be a doctor.

My Thoughts on MLP G5
Please note that it's difficult to figure out what's real and what's not when it comes to leaks. Hasbro are the only folks who know for sure what's going to happen. There is a lot of art going around being called concept art that may have been made by fans, but we can take a look at the commonalities to figure out what might be real. And as always when it comes to leaks: there really is no such thing as a reliable source unless you get it straight from Hasbro, so take everything I say here with a grain of salt. I could be completely wrong about all of this! And of course, I'll be expressing my personal opinions here and you don't have to agre

I don't see the whole issue in just giving them a quick death. Like, I've seen a video of pig slaughter on a farm, and all it took was one bullet to the head. BAM! Dead and instantly over. Why make them go through all that pain?
