Farm Transparency Project exposes the cruelty and secrecy of animal exploitation – Stigmatis News

The Farm Transparency Project exposes the cruelty and secrecy of animal exploitation facilities across Australia. It provides photos, videos, documents and virtual tours of farms, slaughterhouses, knackeries and more.

LOCATION: EcoPiggery, Leitchville VIC

Farm Transparency Project (FTP) is a non-profit animal protection charity, dedicated to ending the abuse and exploitation of animals in farms, slaughterhouses and other commercial settings. Through comprehensive investigations, documentary films, and the creation of innovative tools and resources, FTP seeks to force industry transparency and educate consumers by shining a light on the brutal reality endured by animals in the name of profit.

A chat with my plants | NANMYKEL.COM

Botanical research has revealed that plants are capable of reacting to a broad range of stimuli, including chemicals, gravity, light, moisture, infections, temperature, oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations, parasite infestation, disease, physical disruption, sound, and touch.  But what about thoughts?  Maybe if thoughts are turned into sound?  Wouldn’t it be great if under SOUND was a dictionary!  Then I could really talk to my plants, which bloom in a sunny corner of my bedroom.   (At that point, imagining creeps in, that bottomless state where grand icebergs nestle among majestic clouds.)

Two plants in my bedroom appear determined to survive me:

TO MY TWO

I see you morning and night–often

twice during the night, my dear popinjays.

(Popinjays sounds affectionate, but

apparently that word selection

is in error.)  You head for the light,

which is right, in all situations.

No tantrums; no runny nose–rather

an exemplary example of

evolution’s creation, doing

your  best while counting  upon the less

dependable me that I see in

the mirror of my  focus-impaired

human brain.  I reckon we should have

called it quits before igniting our

planet. You would be outside in the

fresh air and I would be just a dream.

But by whom?  As they said at my old

school: Who, What, When, Where, and How?

But please–don’t let me interrupt

your blooming.

Nan

Have You Noticed We Don’t Talk Anymore – Belladonna’s Flashlight

All anyone does is text! We have become so used to texting that picking up the phone to have a conversation has almost become a thing of the past.

What happened to the occasional phone call asking how you are doing or what have you been up to? Our lives have become digital. We can get answers to anything we want within seconds, spread gossip/news, and pass along memes by using one finger.

I know that texting is convenient for quick messages and updates, and it’s an excellent tool for staying in touch. But let’s not forget the unique value of a phone call. It’s not just about the words we say but the emotions we convey. Hearing someone’s laughter and free-spirited voice has been replaced by emojis and LOL, LMAO, etc.

As for me, I miss hearing my phone ring and hearing a voice on the other end.

Hearing someone’s voice is not just about the words they say; it’s about the reassurance and peace of mind it brings. It’s about feeling connected when you hear the voice of someone you miss and love.

Human connection is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity. It’s the thread that weaves us all together, and it’s time we start valuing it more.

Remembering your voice and real emotions

One of my best friends passed away years ago, and although there are many things that I remember about her, the one thing that sticks with me more than anything is her voice. The emotions that were felt through our real-life connection can’t ever be replaced.

Let’s make a promise that we will text a little less and listen a little more.

Cheers to making someone’s phone ring and engaging in an actual conversation.

You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!
