Snitches get stitches.
At my skill level, I'll just staple it.You gonna help with the needle n thread, or
just say suture self.
There are plenty of other sources of protein. Try to keep in mind that a gorilla (a fairly close relative, who it larger and stronger than we are, hands down) is mostly vegetarian - with some species dabbling in termites and ants.
Sources of protein that are often glossed over when people think "vegetation only": seeds/nuts, beans - and as a vegetarian (rather than vegan), any dairy also contains loads of protein. Other nutrients thought of as "fish-centric" - like omega 3 fatty acids - are also present in nuts in no small amount and even tofu (a lesser amount).
I'm vegetarian - nearly vegan (and was strictly vegan for six years), but do sometimes consume cheese when it is included in some dish or appetizer, etc. There is simply no need to consume meat of any kind with modern knowledge of nutrients and nutrient sources. There are loads of detriments to health and environment to consider, and if we stopped growing/gathering food in order to feed all the farmed animals we raise to eat, we could feed the world of humans easily, and likely much more cheaply.
Obviously humans can eat fish. That is, they are able to digest it, absorb nutrients from it etc. So there is no way a statement of "humans should not eat fish" comes without qualification. And those qualifications being that buying fish under the current (and likely future) paradigm contributes to environmental deterioration and the hoarding of food sources to feed marine livestock and make that dollar.So your objection to eating fish is primarily
an ethical consideration rat her than something
objective.
Air enough as long as not applied to others.
I consider myself vegetarian btw, but do eat
some fish / shellfish.
Jews, Koreans, Pakistanis, Indians, Iranians, ...."Brown people start nuclear war?"
Because wild-caught fish are few and far between nowadays, relatively speaking. Large sections of seafloor that used to be teaming with life are now void of all but drifting muck and rare sardine-sized critters. You want seaweed, kelp, and plankton....go for it.How does it help the environment if everyone stopped eating fish?
Nobody kept a few chickens and ate eggs?

Much or most of our “ocean” harvests now come from ‘farms’, which are basically unflushed giant toilets with our food fish swimming around in the murk.....being poured truckloads of nasty slaughterhouse trash and barrels of antibiotics to keep them alive long enough for harvesting. Antibiotic resistant bacteria anyone?
There’s also the fact that we, as top of the line consumers/predators also get all of the condensed lead, mercury, and other yummy pollutants that tuna et al suffer from.
Keep a couple of chickens and eat eggs? Sure, that’s much more viable than the vast majority which are factory produced. But each egg is still just a little cholesterol grenade.
I east seaweed & jellyfish.
Ew.You have much to learn about the jellyfish.
(no need to understand a word of Cantonese,
this is in a universal language)
Ya know...rearrange a few letters, & "flight shaming" becomes "shight flaming" or "flaming shight".I will second, third and even fourth that EEEEEEEWWWWW
I was told once, by a woman from Guangzhou that Cantonese eat anything with legs, except tables and chairs, but that video was just plain vile
Do you eat the chicken afterward? If we're taking about pure numbers (and we are not, since most people do not have the space for a backyard henhouse. Or even a back yard). The most efficient thing to do is breed out new generation (with a bought or traded rooster) every two years to replace the hens after after fertility age then eat the hens.Because wild-caught fish are few and far between nowadays, relatively speaking.

I'd just given it a <useful> frubul.Not good enough. I need it rated "Everybody should
see this." I think there is an icon for that.
