I’m sure this falls under ‘natural flavor’ on the labels.

Pigs have an extremely powerful and complex digestive system which has evolved over millions of years. They can eat anything and prosper. Even plastic. The plastic they eat comes out of an organ called an anus. Perhaps you’ve heard of it? IOW, pigs shit plastic. As such, you are NOT eating plastic. All this fear mongering must stop.

Ever so much more importantly “you eat what you are.”

“What you are” encompasses “how,” too. (from)“Who,” as well.

At continuum ends, the subsistence farmer, or hunter-gatherer is eating what/how/from who s/he is, as is the urban restaurant (incl even fast “food”) denizen.

People do/behave what they are. That “extends” (seemingly) to all the seeming menu selections on offer: most of those “offers” don’t fit a given puzzle-piece person & are never, & will never be, “selected.”

“Free to choose” is the fatal conceit that Hayek actually wrote about. The errors of socialism is just one symptom in that fatality. Nobody gets out alive, & only a few get being alive.
(cue BeeGees … Barry Gibb says that he’s Stayin’ Alive, while his brothers Robin & Maurice are both dead, because he avoids doctors & they didn’t … just another example).

First sentence. The rest goes to the primacy of chips flying & falling as may – which OCD control freak mofo’s & their minions cannot abide, because it is not what they are; that “fix” is in them as is the compulsion to 3D hologram it out into the world, the better to confirm the inherent & inalienable bias:

“The curious task of economics is to demonstrate to men how little they really know about what they imagine they can design. To the naive mind that can conceive of order only as the product of deliberate arrangement, it may seem absurd that in complex conditions order, and adaptation to the unknown, can be achieved more effectively by decentralizing decisions and that a division of authority will actually extend the possibility of overall order. Yet that decentralization actually leads to more information being taken into account.”

So shit-eating grins cannot, will not, never have, never will, change their spotted vestments.

And so of course, too, leopard deprogramming, “self”-help, psychology/psychiatry, personal development/potentiation/actualization/destiny manifesting are huge “business” (cons).

Holy Smoke. The movie ends. But those lives had to go on – until those ends.

The guy in the cult of deprogrammers continued, if not in that cult, then some “other” one.

The gal who got the Indian guru out of her system went on, serially probably, to “replacements.”

Or, less likely possibility, she quit it because, if that happened, that’s what she was ~ & wasn’t ~ all along, & the phase transition from liquidity in a cultist fog bank to s/teamplaying droplet was just a matter of time it took to get to/thru that window (cue Joe Cocker’s version: she came in through the bathroom window) & thereby creating illusion of movement/change – its what moving pictures elicit in those so solicitable.

Here’s tip Anon…you better be well-read, know your movies, and know your music, and have, at the very least, a PHD level of understanding of the English language. If you lack in any of these areas, you will be lost.

Jane Campion & Harvey Keitel make an excellent team.

Yeah. The Piano. JC brings some consistent serration to her stuff.

I liked how Sam Elliott attacked Campion for her The Power of the Dog (which was definitely not a standard Sam Elliott angle to the western genre … & bleak+Tony Perkins psycho AF) & then later read that the Yellowstone prequel, 1883, is a woke-fest (I haven’t seen any of it).

Not many actors seem able to get above what they do for cash & emoluments flow.

The Piano is in my top 5 faves.

Haven’t seen The Power of the Dog yet. They all go woke eventually.

Every spring my neighbor gets a few piglets, raises them/feeds them,
and then in fall they are processed, shared with family and eaten up.
