you're definitely on a roll. this was one of the best pieces you've ever done. I now feel compelled to pull out the aphorisms and memorize them. and I will.

I've never been remotely tempted by the proposition of going meat-free, but when I look at what I've actually eaten in these last ten years or so, there's less and less meat. I love a great steak, but the last time I had one had to be something like a year ago. it's partly the money (although I feed the dogs raw human-grade meat every day, so I'm definitely part of the problem), but partly that I've lost a lot of my taste for it and find cooking for myself is depressing enough for me not to do it.

it amazes me (I've been amazed a LOT of late) that people actually believe those Right-wing talking points (banning cows, mandating the eating of bugs, etc ad nauseum), but I get asked about them all the time.
