You’ve got 100 years to live and you’re allowed to appropriate whatever you want.

There goes Liptak’s hulu sales commission.

I thought it was a good parallel to how long and boring space travel would actually be... and that we engage in that same behavior now.

If you think it’s so great that even your shit no longer stinks, then Andre 3000 has some choice words for you

P.S. It also makes your stools amazing. Full on odorless, bulky, and clean.

Your shit still stinks, dude.

Lol are you Rhinehart’s intern, assistant, fuck buddy or all 3?

Can someone please tell me why he decided to call it Soylent? It’s like if I named my new-fangled blanket replacement product Humanskins.

Soylent is “food” for people who hate food.

Because an animal doesn’t understand why it’s suffering. They don’t have the self-awareness we do that being alive is better than not being alive. They aren’t afraid of nothingness like we are. And the animal doesn’t know that the chemo you’re giving it might eventually make it better. It just knows it is sick and…

Exactly - hate to break it to you, vegans, CAT’S AREN’T VEGETARIANS and they can’t thrive on a vegan diet.

It’s hilarious the ‘strict ethical vegan’ chose to keep alive an animal that was suffering. Thus denoting several major hypocrisy points in his ‘world view’. One reason to be vegan is to avoid propagating the suffering of animals raised for food. Yet he not only keeps alive a suffering animal, he also feeds it food…

It is like genocide just slowly so no one notices perfectly ethical....................

Plus, he plans to, when this poor cat dies, get a kitten and try to turn an obligate carnivore into an herbivore. Maybe he needs to stop studying morals so much and take a little time out to learn some fucking ethics.

Yeah, that’s what struck me as incredibly wrongheaded, keeping an animal alive in ill health and possibly living in pain, just because you don’t want to make the hard choice to end its life is incredibly selfish. I love my cats, but when it comes to the point where they are facing suffering if I keep them alive, I’m…

Steiner’s personal solution: adopt rescue animals only, spay and neuter them when he does, and advocate, simultaneously, an end to all forms of animal domestication.

His moral stance - attempting to end all animal domestication just so that he doesn’t feel bad about feeding meat to pets - is still flawed. Even after there are no more pet dogs and cats, there are still wild predators. If killing animals is morally wrong, then it doesn’t matter that a predator has no other…

I’m sorry but there is no “moral dilemma” here. Dogs (and cats) are obligate carnivores. They need to eat meat. They don’t have the option to abstain from meat and remain healthy like humans do. Just FEED YOUR DOGS AND CATS MEAT, PEOPLE.

“When Steiner decided to keep Pindar alive against the vet’s advice, “I knew then that it made no sense,” says Steiner, a strict ethical vegan who nevertheless feeds Pindar meat-based, kidney-diet cat food from a can.”

This is the very definition of a First World Problem.
