thanks for the solidarity.

remember it is cultural. i mean, i don't if perhaps you are vegan, but i am not appalled by the eating of other meats. but i would be just as appalled about someone eating cats... and so would my horse eating mother!

i did not grow up here. i am not used to this. unlike my parents, i was born and bred in Anglo cultures, and i believe the horse is seen differently. i think precluded as possible food. even since they moved and i joined the parents here, they have not done this so it was a shock.

i still haven't eaten anything yet. i think i will have a banana for dinner. that feels safe. at least for starters. animals feel very psychologically unsafe right now. i am shaken.
