About Me: i'm vegan. i'm a girl. i like avocados and buster keaton and singing and dancing and snuggling with pippin the pug. i like to drink from teacups whenever possible. i have a really hard time buying clothes that aren't black.
How I became a veggie: first, because my sister went vegetarian and explained to me how farm animals were mistreated. while she was talking, the realizations that dairy cows and laying hens are "farm animals" too took hold. that made me start moving towards a more welfarist standpoint. years later, my mom was playing with pippin one day (the aforementioned pug) and picked him up and looked him in the eye and said, "he's a tiny being". something about that phrase touched me and made me think of him, and by extension all other animals, in a new way. it's an odd way to make the leap, but hearing those words made me realize that AR was the way to go.
