I think eventually we figure out some other way than factory farms. They're fragile, terrible, and smell horrific. Also terrible.

@b4cks4w @nursefrombirth all of that. I sure hope we can find a way that works better.

@b4cks4w @nursefrombirth We have to be willing to pay more at local farms. Easy for me to say, right? But if we combine that with reducing our use of animal products by teaching people to use it as just a part of the main dish, instead of a big hunk of meat.
