I remember watching some BBC documentary and they said that whenever a household for enough money that they started to buy appliances, the first one they bought was almost always a clothes washer.
ehh, it depends a lot on the individual; there’s a lot more scope for interpretation in Islam depending on both religious and cultural variations.
Islamic slaughter follows the same basic method - must die from blood loss, etc - but the prayers said over the animal while this happens are different, and some people consider this significant. Also some people consider certain kinds of shellfish haram, while others consider anything that lives in the water to be completely exempt, etc.
Halal has vastly simpler and more livable-with rules than kosher, and while (apart from alcohol) kosher food is a subset of things that can be halal, it’s not always the case that they’re a subset of things that are halal.
Their dietary and exercise regimen is hardcore. These guys are built as all hell underneath the fat. I’ve been following Sumo for ten or so years and I am constantly astonished by the raw fucking power the rikishi bring to the dohyo, especially at the sekitori level. These guys are absolute beasts.
Really wish that each til title encapsulated a full thought or fact instead of just straight up linking to the Wikipedia page without giving me the cruz of the fact in the title. It’s a tease and I don’t like it.
Also the link goes to the Wikipedia page insert of the section on the page. So when I followed the link I could not find the relevant section before my interest wained.

When I was a vegetarian, Indian food was my go to. Guaranteed to be vegetarian and tasty. It would even be mostly vegan but they use ghee in almost everything, so it's a big no-no for vegans unfortunately
Vegetarianism is not enough. Cows are murdered at a few hours old if they have the misfortune of being male, or unwanted "stock" if they're female. Male chicks are killed at a few hours old because they'll never produce eggs. Vegetarians preach love for animals, but they're hypocrites. dairy and eggs are so cruel.
I agree. I was vegetarian for 3-4 years and realized that if I was doing it for the animals, I couldn't keep consuming eggs and dairy, or any other animal product for that matter. Been a vegan for more than 10 years now
Ye man I could infer that from your earlier comment :D
Just a tip: I agree with everything you say, but if our goal is to change peoples' behavior, it is detrimental to call the hypocrites (and similar adjectives). That creates cognitive dissonance, and people usually double-down on their old behavior when faced with cognitive dissonance instead of changing their behavior. What I've found works best to make people go vegan is instead of calling them out on their behavior, show them positive examples of veganism, and let them do the math.
