Dr Seuss: ‘Maybe Christmas,’ he thought, ‘doesn’t come from a store. Maybe Christmas … perhaps … means a little bit more!’

Vegans of tumblr, listen up. Harvesting agave in the quantities required so you dont have to eat honey is killing mexican long-nosed bats. They feed off the nectar and pollinate the plants. They need the agave. You want to help the environment? Go back to honey. Your liver and thyroid will thank you, as well. Agave is 90% fructose, which can cause a host of issues. Bye.
Beekeeper here! Just wanted to say that the fact that vegans won’t eat honey is very silly. Harvesting honey does not hurt bees. The invention of modern moveable-frame hives means we can remove a selected frame, extract the honey and return it without killing a single bee.
If we destroyed the colony to harvest honey there would be no bees for next year, and beekeepers are incredibly careful to keep their bees healthy and thriving. We take *excess* honey that they don’t need, and it stops the hive from becoming honey-bound, meaning that there’s so much honey the Queen has nowhere to lay eggs. And if the winter is harsher than expected and the remaining honey store runs low, we feed the bees plenty to make sure they survive. We also make sure that pests are controlled, bees are treated for disease, and the hive is weatherproof and in good repair, all things that wild bees struggle with.
Keeping bees in properly managed hives where they don’t starve or die from preventable disease is much better for them than being left to fend for themselves, and they’re far too important to be left alone.
All the fruits and vegetables that vegans *do* eat couldn’t exist without bees, and the hives which pollinate those crops also produce excess honey which the beekeepers can sell to help keep themselves and their hives going.
TLDR: BUY THE HONEY, HELP THE BEES.

Imagine having your typo immortalized in a subway ad in a city of 8 million people.
make no mistake i am the first person to encourage all girls to throw out their makeup collections and run barefaced through the woods uninhibited by the iron fist of sephora but i’m also friends with gay men who are terrified to go out in public displaying even the smallest signifiers of femininity lest they be beaten to death in an alley, so like, a) gay men who wear makeup are not practitioners of “a fun hobby,” they are members of an oppressed class who are risking their safety to express themselves, and b) if you’re out with a gay male friend and he’s clearly spent a lot of time on his makeup and he’s feeling good about himself and he kindly offers to do your makeup sometime, maybe save the lecture about how cosmetics corporation are evil vultures feasting on womens’ self-esteem for profit.
