I've been having a difficult time blogging both here and at Animal Rights & AntiOppression lately because I feel like my thoughts are like " Groundhog Day."

You are choosing domination and enslavement and forced breeding and unnecessary slaughter.

By the end of my time as researcher, I was performing behavioral experiments on humans.
