A thought for tonight


"Even if we were simply to surrender reality and conclude that killing savable animals cannot be ended, killing animals would still not be ethical, merciful, or defensible. Animal lovers would still be morally bound to reject it. Any "practical" or utilitarian consideration about killing cannot hold sway over an animal's right to live. Just as other social movements reject the "practical" when it violates the rights of individuals for which they advocate, we, too, should reject the idea that killing animals is acceptable because of the claim that there are "too many" for the "too few homes which are available." Simply put, killing healthy or treatable animals is immoral."

In the dead of the night

Mom walks in to my room...

Mom: What are you doing?

Me: Nothing.

Mom: You're doing [toy] inventory again, aren't you?

Me: Yeah, why?

Mom: I saw your status on Facebook.

Remind me why I'm friends with my parents on Facebook again?

Christmas is 23 days away!

I'm almost done with the gift-shopping. I'm quite sad that I wasn't able to go with my initial gift plans due to the unforeseen taxes deducted to my salary. It was quite inevitable with this kind of constraint.

Well, that plus a number of figures that suddenly arrived lol.

Ahhh it must be really good to have lots and lots of money! Like the person who won the lotto recently -- a whopping 700+M pesos!

If I had that much money, I'd keep 600M in the bank and put it in time deposit and live off on the interest I'd get every quarter. The 100+M will be spent on stuff, of course. I'd get a modest house, preferably in the rural areas so my dogs can have a nice, large running space, and I can afford more pets too lol.

I'd also get a car. Like a Civic. Or an Evo. Or my dream car, a Beetle. Nothing too extravagant hehe.

Then I'll just treat my family to whatever they want.

Well~~ So much for wishful thinking XD

And now, I leave you with this:

Sooooo yummy~~
