Next week we'll be interviewing Leah Garcés, President of Mercy for Animals and author of 'Grilled: Turning Adversaries into Allies to Change the Chicken Industry'.

What do you think we should ask her?

There's a lot to unpack in @GoodFoodInst and @GrowPlantBased's new report that looks at how plant-based food sales are growing in grocery stores, and who's buying it all. Here are some of my thoughts on what the findings mean for the future of the industry, and for animals: https://twitter.com/voxdotcom/status/1383034985456807937

no generation has loved animals more than us. no generation has kept more of them in factory farms, or pushed more of them towards extinction.

can we find a better way?

i'm excited - and slightly terrified - to have written about my new book:

How much time, effort and intellect has been wasted because someone thought “I feel / this feels way too special to just be physics”?

What percentage of #Humanist output (papers, presentations, podcasts, books, videos, courses, campaign materials) do you estimate deal exclusively with humans, ignoring the moral salience of non-human sentients?

@vfaes_org It was inexcusable to enslave them then and it's inexcusable to enslave them now. There is never an acceptable excuse. #AnimalRights #Sentientism #EndSpeciesism

@henrymance Thanks for helping us humans consider the perspectives of other sentient animals.

You might find #Sentientism an interesting worldview: "Evidence, reason & compassion for all sentients".

Would love to interview you about your book for our podcast! 🍎https://apple.co/391khQO

New review! Thank you mattymedic123 💚

"#Sentientism podcast is an excellent resource which explores sentience and the moral/practical aspects of human behaviour. I have learnt a lot of interesting aspects in this area- I would recommend..."

@CarriePoppyYES Thanks Carrie!

As long as you're into evidence, reason and universal compassion for all sentient beings - who cares about the labels? 🙂

I'd love to interview you for the #Sentientism podcast & YouTube if you'd be up for it. Mine is very much a baby compared to @OhNoPodcast...

Two reasons to join our "I'm a #Sentientist" wall (if you are):

1⃣ Normalise compassion & rationality

2⃣ Give yourself & everyone else on the wall, including me, a little dopamine hit, thereby directly enhancing the quality of our sentient experience.

@Baddiel @Ransarig Wonder if your daughter might be a #Sentientist: "Evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings."

Like Humanism but serious about non-human animal ethics.

Would love to know what she (and you) think of the idea...

Compassion isn't enough. We also need a common (albeit imperfect) understanding of the reality we all share - grounded in reality itself.

#Misinformation & #Disinformation are #Sentientist concerns too. Naturalism & Sentiocentrism.
