your local decline can be explained by any number of factors, and there is not enough evidence to conclude it is due to you or your whole town reducing meat consumption.
if the industry continues to grow, the location of the farms doesn't seem to matter.
if you buy less meat, the meat industry actually becomes smaller over time.
that has never happened.

your not my doctor
I imagine asian markets dwarf America and europe
can you link any of them?
do you have some evidence for that?
In day to day life, veganism has the single highest impact
I don't know how this can be quantified, but id love to see how you try.
I looked at it. it's not compelling
I will soon be 40, but I recently found some pictures that I sent to my then girlfriend now wife where I look fuckin great
you should give a trigger warning when you link gore
do you have a plan to make that happen?
More people are going vegan than ever before as 88 million have went vegan.
it doesn't seem to be effective at reducing or even stopping the growth of the meat industry

comparing slaves to animals is what slavers do.
I will not be kind to those who are animal abusers
most people feel the same way.
Mean consumption is on a downward trend
can you show me some evidence of this?
calling me names is neither an argument nor evidence.
I did watch that video. probably a dozen times. it gets posted often. I shouldn't be expected to debunk an argument that isn't made.
I rewatched* it after I made my comment though, and it does not establish what they claimed. it doesn't cite sources**, and it's primary thesis is "it's complicated"
edit(s):
* i actually listened to it. but just now, after i made this comment, i scrubbed it and i found:
** they do some pretty hard-to-see and also hard-to-research citation in the form of citing academic papers in the bottom right of the screen around the time they are making the claim. and let me tell you, poore-nemecek is the basis of the lca analysis (which i could have guessed), and that lca analysis is flat out bad science. it's certainly not a compelling reason to be vegan.
I'm not watching your YouTube video. if you can't articulate a compelling reason, just say so.
I find it hard to believe that it is the biggest impact a single person can have. can you enumerate the other strategies it is weighed against?
you also aren't supporting your claims about affordability, health, nor ease with anything but anecdotal evidence.

I'm aware that this community is not usually happy with the content that's available above-board for-free under-restriction. For instance, free with subscription, or free with ads.
But I have found myself obsessed with library cards recently.
Libraries grant access to pretty expansive collections even online: movies, tv, music, and ebooks are just the beginning. Genealogical resources, vehicle repair manuals, business contact databases, academic journals, and periodicals. One of my libraries granted me access to Udemy Business through Gale. I honestly can't detail every database/collection/resource i've found available through the 4 libraries who have granted me useful access.
But I seem to have hit a wall. The New York Public Library says "visitors" may get a "temporary" card, but the number they gave me expired after 2 weeks and didnt get me access to any of their online offerings anyway.
Paris says they'll happily issue me a card. All I need to do is fill out the form (in french?!) and show up in person with photo ID. /s
Surely, I'm not the only one who has decided to try to collect library cards like pokemon cards. I imagine there are philanthropic libraries or national libraries or something that I just don't know how to look up. I'm looking for any library that will issue me a card regardless of residency, but for reference I am in the US if that's the only residency requirement. Anyone got tips?

I fucked with the title a bit. What i linked to was actually a mastodon post linking to an actual thing. but in my defense, i found it because cory doctorow boosted it, so, in a way, i am providing the original source here.
please argue. please do not remove.
YouTube Video
Click to view this content.
i don't know how i got linked to this channel but i kept clicking on videos because i like him and his style and his politics.
and i just gotta say
i saw some highly dunkable libs saying things like "don't link me to people who make an argument. you need to use your own words or i'm going to block you." and now i want, desparately, to link them to this video in particular.
the end bit is the best where he says (im paraphrasing) "if someone says that we can't show solidarity with palestine because then our team won't win, then you can say 'fuck your team' and just be in solidarity with oppressed people because the people saying that are dum-dum doo-doo heads" and i really felt that.

I use youtube across different devices with the same account. sometimes, i even use it in multiple browser profiles or apps on the same device (with the account logged in).
the ad reminder got me. it actually stopped serving any youtube video on my laptop. so i made a new profile in firefox, logged in, and it was fine. for a couple days.
so i made a new profile, logged in, and... was foiled. but not to be deterred, i did what any reasonable person would do: i sought out one of the DOZENS of alternative frontends and used youtube's recommendation algorithm on the main site to pull videos from the alternative frontend.
for one day.
today, on my laptop, with my old profile, never changing logins or browser settings, youtube started working again.
did we win?
don't dogpile them. i just wanted to vent.
