"I already answered the leather question. Most people wouldn't wear the skin of a human slave. Why would someone opposed to the commodification of animals were their skin? The money from byproducts still goes to the same people, and by using…"

Sofia replied to Ericah Jo's discussion What are your feelings on being a vegitarian?"Worse off than what, being in the wild? Or did you mean worse off than never being born?
Worse off than either. I've argued why, but you haven't addressed any of my points, so I'm not going to repeat myself.
We have to industrialize…"
Sofia replied to Ericah Jo's discussion What are your feelings on being a vegitarian?"What happens in the wild is irrelevant. There is no reason to industrialize it. While being bred by humans may protect them as a species, as individuals they are much worse off."
Sofia replied to Ericah Jo's discussion What are your feelings on being a vegitarian?"They get protection, food, etc. for the time they are allowed to live. Their average lifespan would be longer in the wild. Unless you are closely involved in the raising and killing of the animals you eat, you're likely funding the mistreatment…"
Sofia replied to Rachael Power's discussion Ways to occupy yourself during the summer"I had a bunch of clay left over from school, so I've been making things. The studio should be open this summer, so I'll hopefully be busy with that all summer. Also trying to sell the things I make.
I've also been making myself write…"

Sofia replied to Ericah Jo's discussion What are your feelings on being a vegitarian?"I don't really think you can speak for cows. I can't either, but animals raised in the wild do terribly in captivity, and vice versa. Wild animals aren't known to self harm out of lack of stimulation. I really don't understand…"
Sofia replied to Ericah Jo's discussion What are your feelings on being a vegitarian?"If we didn't eat them, we wouldn't breed them. They would not exist to suffer. When in the wild, they have a chance to run and fight. They are living there own life, and weren't bred and raised for the sole purpose of human…"
Sofia replied to Michael Lee's discussion Weed."One time it made me kind of happy, and the other time it filled me with ennui and hatred for everything. Which is what alcohol does for me.
It also made me unable to focus my sense of hearing. You can usually ignore background noises, and only hear…"
Sofia replied to Mahira Ganster's discussion Anybody know/learning a foreign language?"I can read in French, I can kind of speak and understand spoken, but I'm not that interested in that so I don't work on it. I'm now learning German, and it's going a lot faster than my first language.
I had no luck with French…"
Sofia replied to Sabrina's discussion Do you guys believe that grades define how smart a person is?"Good grades mean you're good at school. Nobody in my family has ever studied for anything, often doing their work the night or morning before class, and they've all done great in school. Other people might have to work at it, but they can…"
Sofia replied to Veronica Borders's discussion Independent Language Learning in the group Speaking Foreign"I like pimsleur, it's a great starting point, because I never know how to start. I get it from the library, most language learning thngs are extremely expensive, but you can try out everything with the library (& IILs). I dislike grammar…"
Sofia replied to Courtney Cantsay's discussion What do your read or read on?"I have a kindle, I mostly use it for public domain books. It can't read ePub files without them being converted, which is really inconvenient. I get most books from the library, or buy them used. I only buy ebooks when I can't find them…"
Sofia replied to Rebecca Lissette's discussion Should assisted suicide be legal?"I never purchased my dog, and she wasn't given to me, yet she's still owned by me. She belongs to me because I've taken responsibility of her life.
People do pay for their lives; they work for the food, shelter, etc. that they need to…"
Sofia replied to Rebecca Lissette's discussion Should assisted suicide be legal?"Well who else owns it? You and those close to you make most of the decisions about your life, why shouldn't you be able to make them about your death?"
