Random Musings (and associated non sequiturs) v. 3.0

Seems like things are going to pot in Colombia…

I’m glad to see They Might Be Giants are realistic about being aging musicians:

Anyone remember when Mark Hamill made the joke about what the third movie’s subtitle will be? He started with “The Force Awakens”, continued with “The Last Jedi” and finished with “From His Nap”.

This time, The Simpsons didn’t do it first, but they have made a short film called “Maggie Simpson in: The Force Awakens From Its Nap”.

I am more than a little disappointed that the “burger menu” in the program doesn’t have anything to do with food.

If you want to be vegetarian or vegan, you can, because as a human being, you have the ability to choose other foods that provide the nutrition a human’s body requires.

It isn’t the same for animals like canines and felines. Some animals of them have to have meat in order to be healthy because of certain compounds that are present in meat. For example, cats have to have taurine or they will start experiencing retinal degeneration that will eventually become blindness, and female cats can have reproductive failures. If you’re going to take away meat from their diet, you have to provide those mandatory compounds in other forms.

And for pete’s sake, water is mandatory no matter what kind of animal you’re dealing with, human or otherwise. It’s not optional.

One dog dead, another has permanently disfigured front paws, due to vegan diet.

I didn’t want to click on that link, but I did. It’s safe to view. No scary pics.
Some people are just too stubborn and stupid. Do your goddam homework.

You eat murdered animals. You will never be like us — we are vegans and love (torturing)* animals

I’m happy to never be like them - I’d rather not torture my pets to death thank you.

Me neither - thanks for taking one for the team to check the safety.

* word added to describe what they actually do

Today (May 10th) is the day in 1893 that the Supreme Court of the United States rules in Nix v. Hedden that a tomato is a vegetable, not a fruit, under the Tariff Act of 1883

Or their hearts will explode (dilated cardiomyopathy). :woman_shrugging:t3:

/me needs to remember to add a “NGP” tag to links (no gross pics) to indicate something’s okay to read

Last year there was a dustup in town because someone had a kangaroo in their back yard. The town or city had to make an official statement saying that kangaroos aren’t illegal, all the required paperwork was in order, and the kangaroo was completely healthy and not in any danger so they had no reason to intervene.

Be very thankful it wasn’t a wombat. In a wombat vs car incident, the car usually loses…

You know what a wombat is for?
To play Wom with.

I’ve heard that armadillos are pretty rough on vehicles. They jump, so they end up hitting the underside of a vehicle or jumping into the grille.

And the leprosy. Don’t forget the leprosy. :rofl:
