Austin, Texas

Mar24

Austin is a great city where the races and culture vary. It is just the right amount of crazy and sane.
Except maybe, it is becoming too much like a ‘steel city’, meaning that all of the buildings are being knocked down, and turned into condos for easier transport throughout the different streets. Austin is becoming more of a tourist attraction (even though more concerts are held on Dallas and Houston!) if you happen to come here, visit the Alamo Drafthouse, it serves dinner and a movie with lots of leg room, unlike most theaters, and they have great chocolate cookies for dessert.

6th Street has the most diversity in different cultures. There are tattoo places, bars, but don’t get me wrong, it is a great place to bring family and kids. Go to the costume stores, restaurants, or live music.
I think that you should come check Austin, TX out ASAP.

Animal Slaughter

Feb11

BOOM! Another animal was just shot for a pointless reason. Imagine how you would feel if you were killed for food.

First of all, when chickens are sent to the slaughter homes, they are tied to a rotating post by their feet, but if they move the slightest bit, they can fall onto a moving conveyer belt underneath them and be burned alive. So if I were to come to your house, tie your feet together and burn you to death- you wouldn’t be able to say anything, because I would be treating you like factory workers are treating the chickens. Who would want that horrible job?

In addition to that, let’s talk about how veal is made…
When baby cows are born, they are taken away from their mothers just to be locked in a tiny stall, that they have to stay in for the rest of their lives, without EVER seeing the sunlight. In some places, they are underfed, and in some others, they are over fed. Now they have spent their lives in that 1 stall with no room to move and sometimes even sit!! But the worst part is, the only time they can stretch their legs are when they are being taken to the slaughter house. Imagine that are you are stuck in a safe room for you WHOLE life.

In conclusion, I think that we (as humans) should reeducate the amount of meat intake that we consume. Animals should be treated like us, not like a foreign invader who is a serial killer!
