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…?

Sometimes you see a post and just realize there’s some Wild Shit going on in a community you never knew existed

Be me:

- Go out fishing/doing some conservation on Eidolon Plains before I leave

- Use the Archwing to get around

- Hear the squeaks of the Kuaka

- See a ghost kuaka in the midst of the plains!

- Tranq it and its plains friends

- Get close to them to send it off

- Think “How do I exit the archwing?

- Think: “Oh yeah, melee”

- Slam the ground with the weapon, instantly killing the entire pack of Kuaka

been fuckin around in the artbreeder character creator to kill time and these happened and i’m kinda obsessed with them

This is the only tiktok you’ll ever need, I’ve made about 13 of these and I’m not stopping anytime soon

I’m reblogging again because I did it myself and added pictures for those who have trouble learning from the video.

First take a standard rectangular piece of paper (I used one from a small notebook which I ripped out then cut the holes off)

Then fold in half touching the shorter side to the opposite shorter side.

Fold again making the new shorter side touch the other new shorter side

I did this one more time, but this time I unfolded it right after to get back to where it was only folded twice. It should have left a crease in the paper.

Using this crease, fold the corners up alongside it to look like this

This are also going to be unfolded, but this time you’re going to push in alongside the triangular folds you just made and undid.

Doing this once will result in this

Hold tight because tumblr won’t let me add more pictures. I’ll reblog will the rest of the instructions

Continuing on,

Do the other side of you haven’t already to get this

You’ll open these newly created flap to change which parts are touching

Leaving you with this

Then you start pulling the top “tabs” down

Do both sides to get the final folded form

Decorate as desired.

Hope this helps!

Ratio for the rectangle size is 2:3

So 6 cm by 9cm

I uh, lost an evening:

Thanatos knows that I hecking love cute origami, and moths, so really, what was I supposed to do, scroll past and not take the opportunity to make butterfly and moth page markers???

Hate the 4 or so days after peeling a bandaid off where you have to wait for the stupid red mark to go away

That’s what you all said about pomegranates a few days ago. Tumblr doesn’t get to armchair diagnose me with two allergies in the same week, that isn’t fair.

Stop being maybe allergic to things then /j.

I’ve gone through my entire life with basically no allergies and I’m not about to start now

Given that the persistent red parts and dry skin are always in the ‘shape’ of the adhesive part that’s probably it

“Pomegranate allergy is seen in conjunction with allergies to other foods presenting as Latex Food Syndrome, which is caused by the body confusing the proteins it encounters in food to that of latex proteins to which it is already sensitised.”

“There are 3 allergens thought to cause allergic reactions in pomegranates, these are called Pun g 1, Pun g 7 and Pun g 14. Pun g 14 is a chitinase protein. This is a plant derived enzyme made by plants naturally to act as a defence against fungal attacks. Chitinase is a protein associated with an allergy to latex.”

You’re saying it’s possible that my body throws hissy fits over delicious fruit and medical treatment because it’s freaking out over an antifungal protein?

WAIT. MAIZE IS ON THIS LIST.

IS SWEETCORN NOT SUPPOSED TO SOFTEN THE ROOF OF YOUR MOUTH UP AND HURT LIKE HELL FOR HOURS?? IS THAT AN ALLERGY THING??

May I offer moral support?

I spent my entire life thinking tomatoes were spicy. Turns out, they’re not. I was 36 when I learned that I’m allergic to some kind of pollen that also triggers on raw tomatoes. :S

At least you get an entirely different depth of flavour from the average burger! XD

If Lynati is right I might have one single allergy that wants to fuck my life up in multiple distinct ways.

The irony here is that I only mentioned bandaids because I was using them to secure samples to my skin for a pomegranate test last week.
