    Ok. Larson or anyone, please explain this one! Did they all die when the farmer dropped the eggs?

      From the squiggly lines coming from their heads, my current guess is that it’s like sometime dropping their heads into their hands after working hard on something just to see it carelessly ruined and knowing they’re expected to just do it again, like a bunch of workers spending all day putting up a brick wall and then someone backing into it with a car.

      Best guess is that they either fainted or are looking down judgmentally at the farmer. Agree that the drawing is ambiguous though

      Just because a person eats animals and uses animal products doesn’t mean they don’t respect them.

      I prefer leather over its alternatives, as leather is a side product from the beef industry, so we use more of the animal. It’s worse now that cars come with vinyl seats (“vegan leather”) using petrochemicals and industrial products instead of the skin of an animal that was being killed anyway

        So in the 80’s they had to have laws because cattle was being killed just for leather (which I believe was mostly in brazil where rain forest was being cut down for grazeland). As much beef as we eat it would not support all fake leather things being done as leather.

          Indeed. Beef prices tell me they’re not the loss leader product, and leather is cheap, so I don’t think that’s a problem now

            but again it has been and you mention cars using leather. Without the leather alernatives it very much would be a problem.
