Day 40 - 100 days of value challenge!

Don't be a dick to vegans and vegetarians. Seriously.

I mean, don't get me wrong. I eat meat, probably too much of it too. And I have as many of you encountered the crazy vegans belittering you about how bad it is to eat meat and how bad of a person you are for it. But does that give you the right to judge them all? No it doesn't.

My little brother has become a vegetarian, and parts of the family were all like "oh yeah its just a phase", but no. He is trying to find his values and follow principles, and I'm super proud. The joy on his face in this picture is due to me and the family encouraging him and being proud of him, and acknowledging that his veggie taco looks delicious!

I don't think people realize how much that support means. Because doing something hard like giving up meat for a cause takes effort, and being cheered for might make it easier.

So good on you, little brother, and good on all of you who try to spare the animals as best you can. We can probably all learn something from you.

And btw, if you're one of those obnoxious vegans, PLEASE stop making my brothers life harder by being such a prick.

Life pro tip of the day is to respect other people's choices no matter if you agree or not.

❤️
