vegans make peace with honey

no shut up do it

vegans will pretend not to hear when natives tell them their agave products are unsustainable because they have whimsical feelings about, and i cannot stress this enough, the freedom of hive insects

Honey is literally murder but go off

Prove it.

They literally puke their guts up to make your honey

I have not seen any evidence tonsugges they are harmed or die in the process of production. They do regurgitate the nectar as part of the process to concentrate it into honey (an interesting process) but they do not suffer any injury during this process. If they did, the cost to produce honey, which is done naturally as a measure to survive over winter and through times of lower availability, would outweigh the benefits. If you kill several bees to produce enough honey to make one more bee, It makes no sense. Any animal that did that would die, even with human intervention.

Do you have any sources which suggest otherwise? I’d be interested to hear of this (relatively publicly available) information was false or misunderstood.

Bee farmers use whats called a honey maker. It’s a crude devices. It similar to a meat grinder. They force the bees in and grind them up. What comes out is a paste. That paste is later filtered into what we know as honey

This is the funniest thing I’ve ever read

@zoologicallyobsessed please show us pics of your bee grinder

they might be falsely thinking about a honey extractor machine. but all these do is you place the beehive frames inside and a motor rotates it at a speed that removes the honey, which is then tapped through a tap at the bottom. 

…do they think they put bees in that and spin them around until they vomit…?

bad and naughty bees get put into the b e e c e n t r i f u g e to extract their honey

Vegans coming after beekeepers is one of my major teeth grinding annoyances. For many reasons, because there’s so many lies. And to go one step further because it’s such a waste. You see, the strongest vegan argument is that they don’t want to exploit animals or take from them without their consent.

… but… Bees consent. NO. I’M NOT KIDDING.

How? Bee hives aren’t kept on leashes. They’re outside, the bees can travel miles every day. They follow their queen. Who is also outside, not on a leash, and can travel miles every day. If she doesn’t like the hive for any reason - for example: it got too hot, too cold, too messy, too filled with sugary stuff and they need more space… then the queen leaves. And with her the hive.

The queen stays in the hive because the hive is the best place to live. Period. Done. End of. If the hive is staying with the beekeeper it’s because the keeper is doing their job correctly and keeping them happy because the bees can, and do, leave bad beekeepers.

Of all the animals we have domesticated as livestock, bees are the ones you can most easily argue are consenting participants in their keeping.

So myself and two best friends got matching tattoos that say Κύριε ἐλέησον. It’s pronounced Kyrie Eleison and in ancient Greek means “Lord have mercy.” It’s one of the oldest Christian liturgical prayers and features in the Bible, and when Christianity became Latinised, it as one of the only surviving Greek prayers.

Just for fun I plugged it into Google Translate to see what modern Greek thinks of it and

10/10 A+ tat so glad its marked on my skin forever, would tattoo again

Thanks OP you ruined the liturgy for me.

The way my keyboard is set up (I use a Brazilian portuguese one), sometimes when I write “Snape” I accidentaly hit a key that makes it “Snapé”

It looks a lot like it´s the bougie version of Snape…as in Snape walking around in whatever the wizard equivalent of Armani is, with a peacock by a leash like this:

Like…”It´s not Snape…it´s Snapé”

Lucius “Luscious” Malfoy’s finishing school for up-and-coming wizards has transformed Snape

ONE OF FAVORITE THINGS IN THE WORLD IS “COMMENTS BY PEOPLE WHO DONT SPEAK YOUR LANGUAGE BUT ARE DOING THEIR BEST YET PERFECTLY CONVEY THE INFORMATION”

THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT MANGLED GRAMMAR THAT GETS CLOSER TO THE RAW HUMAN EMOTION UNDERNEATH THE WORDS

“I hate this”

WILL NEVER BE AS POWERFUL AS

“I am hate this”

At my previous workplace most of my co-workers had limited English, and I miss hearing them speak! One of the Syrian guys would often say “I am I like it” and “I am no I like it”, and several of them were very fond of the phrase “This no good! garbage!

Another co-worker, an elderly Romanian lady, commented on a bad situation with the beautifully expressive phrase “It is I think, ah, one shit.”
