I’m surprised PETA euthanises dogs.. unless they’re ill of course
I keep getting the urge now to watch that disturbing video. Like my mind wants me to upset myself, similar to the HA googling, and I don’t know what to do because every time I watch it, it leaves me in a wreck.
And even if I don’t rewatch it I’ve still got the memory, and I don’t think I’ll ever forget it, it has seriously scarred me
Oh I just saw the replies on page 2, they look very detailed and insightful
I will get to them when I have proper laptop access in the morning, I thought Terry’s was the only reply so I replied quickly on my phone
They do good work in their investigations but they are not without criticism for their own issues, one being they don't believe in the no kill movement and continue to euthanise.
Can you see the anxiety issue in there? It wants you to go back to a scary trigger and start it all over again. It will fade soon unless you choose to keep it going. This thread now needs to be about discussing lifestyle change/ethics as opposed to you wanting to be reassured so best not to keep it going about how you felt as that time has passed.

"Unless you choose to keep it going" are the significant words to consider here.
So what lifestyle changes are you going to make, Toby? Within reason of course. Small changes can make a big difference.
I think if it was to happen then I would just go vegetarian and avoid meats rather than anything involving animals.
Aren't lentils like seedy things? Is a bolognese a bolognese without meat?
And if I'd have to stick to fake meats because a diet without at least a fake substitute for meat would be boring
Thank you for the advice, it does seem pretty expensive, but I'm at the very least going to stop eating pork and lamb. Sometimes when looking at a burger, the average person forgets that the meat was stolen from an animal that was as conscious and aware as we are. It's so sad
I have no WILL to do anything. Like, it's easy enough to say go and volunteer but there are a million problems for me, like how I'll get there (I hate getting like 10 buses), who I might see while getting there, what if I start worrying while I'm there, will I look presentable enough, what if I don't get enough sleep the night before and I'm exhausted all day?
Yep the video was shocking. I can't get it out of my mind.
I think if the animal has lived a couple of years and then is slaughtered in a stress free humane way, then that's okay I guess, but most of the time they're slaughtered after like, 6 months.
And the whole process behind halal and kosher meat is so sick and twisted. Imagine slitting a live animal's throat instead of stunning them just because a dusty old book from thousands of years ago says so. That's the same as slitting the throat of a live, conscious human.
