every so often I think about how my dad was doing ethical veganism for, like, seven solid years and spent the whole time talking about how he just couldn't stand to eat meat anymore because he's an empath and how the use of animal products is literally never and has never been morally excusable under any circumstances and then one day was like 'I bought a grill! check out these sick ribs I just made!' so extremely suddenly that all three of us kids were like '....?? .... meat ribs.....???' and when I finally asked him what was up he sent a shrug emoji and said he wanted to lose weight so he started keto
#INSANE. INSANE. INSANE!!#YOU HAVE THE MORAL BACKBONE OF A CHOCOLATE ECLAIR!!!#'it's so hard to find truly vegan stuff because of stuff like carmine' type of guy!#'what's a good vegan alternative to honey' type of guy!#'as your dad I feel guilty for being part of brainwashing you into the normalization of meat consumption' type of guy!!#'mmmm this pizza is SO tasty and no animals even had to suffer for it 😌' type of guy!!#KETO??
