I wish all the brilliant people thinking about "what is it like to be..." a bat or a snail or the USA or AI or a p-zombie or a Vulcan or Data from Star Trek...

Spent a bit more time considering what it's like to be a farmed animal.

That's probably a higher priority.

Whole countries are lobbying to remove any mention of animal ag climate impact e.g.:

"plant-based diets can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 50%…"

Incredibly powerful, thoughtful and moving piece by @bnielson01 on the animal sentience debate.

I would ask anyone skeptical of valence in other species to give it an honest and open-minded read.

Growing meat, milk, and eggs from *cells* isn't just a new kind of "alternative protein"

It's our once in a lifetime, second chance at agriculture - but kinder, safer, and more just (if we want it)

Here's my vision for a world with cellular agriculture:

New episode! @JoshLMilburn speaks to Professor Michael Huemer about his book Dialogues on Ethical Vegetarianism (@Routledge_Phil).

Is our treatment of animals the world's worst problem?

When you see something #beautiful in someone, tell them.
It may take you a second to say it,
But for them, it could last a lifetime (unknown).
Loving #ostrich & kind human sharing a precious moment

If you're an #introvert, #gay/#LGBTQ+, #atheist, #vegan and/or #sentientist (or tweet about related topics), then F4F 🤓 I will also be discussing the above topics & typically only follow accounts in these niches. Please message me if I didn't follow you back.

@PeterTatchell @stephenfry @TatchellMovie @Raindance @IanMcKellen @eltonofficial @DavidFurnish @thechrisamos @wildbeartv Many congratulations Peter and to the whole team. An amazing film.

I suspect Stephen is another #Sentientist too!

Periodic reminder that you don't have to agree with any of these Sentientists to be a #Sentientist.

You just have to believe using evidence & reason and have compassion for all sentient beings = #Sentientism.

Fascinating that two philosophers with very different views on consciousness both end up as ~#Sentientist and #Vegan (last 14 mins on ethics).

Sentience as the morally salient aspect of consciousness? ~"Can they suffer?"

I've been lucky to talk to them both on #Sentientism 👇🏽
