A curious Observation

Every time I eat meat of any kind - I spend the day/next day fuming. This has become often and clear enough that I can see it happening. Normally my day passes in a calm, determined, happy manner.

Hellooo Mr. Meat and Boom! I am pissy, sarcastic and sometimes unable to do MATHS!!

Kind of like Right Now.

I really want to give up eating it...and I did until I started to get all morally bankrupt over the mice I kill for my degree. In order to not have to acknowledge that fact and to avoid rationalizing it I have decided that I will continue to eat meat.

But I am now faced with the threat of losing my equanimity, now what?

I am not ok with being fallaciously angry. Esp. when I know why it is that I feel angry - to know the reason and then to ignore it - that is irreverent.

Somehow theoretical science makes people inaccessible esp. if they are not good scientists to begin with.

As a biologist you learn to deal with variables and you learn that you must change everything and when nothing changes, you change that which was always thought to be right.

Humorous Words from the Land of Nod:

In reference to the 'evolution of the guitar-playing super-copulative variety of male squirrels':

S: Don't squirrels breed like maggots?
moi: You mean rabbits?
S: Yeah, those.

White Samurai: You're passionate!
moi: about what?
White Samurai: Nothing I guess. But you are passionate.

An arcane, science-savvy comment :P, with reference to the extent of pH-ing of a buffer solution-type question from White Samurai:

moi: I guess you have to pH that to the right molarity of...uh...hydrogen ions.

moi: Feed me!
White Samurai: You've come to the wrong man.

"VR see. VR eat."
