Reblog if Mr. Nimoy is in your thoughts.
all-ab0ard-the-uss-enterprise:
Please keep our beloved Vulcan in your thoughts! This could be very important! Please, reblog this and spread the awareness to stop smoking!
How should I not be thinking about the man whose character was both my great mid-teen crush, and someone on whom (a decade and a half or so later) I found myself being privileged to spend nearly a further decade of happy creative time?
I hope he may be well quickly. My life wouldn’t be the same without him.

Did a quick sketch for my friend ral-across-the-universe of her character Ral as one of the hunters from Monster Hunter, sporting some Barioth armor from 3U! She always did like sabertooth cats. :D
She hasn’t gotten to play the games yet, but we thought he’d make a good dual-sword wielder.

#and I just don’t feel entitled to someone else’s life’s work.
That comment exactly!! It’s not mine and I can survive without it, so I will.
This is why honey is not vegan.
The problem here is that honey, especially if you buy it ethically from an apiarist, isn’t actually detrimental to the well-being of the bee or the hive. In the wild, honey is used as a food stock, but in a domesticated honeybee colony, the bees are fed quite well, and so the honey is a surplus.
The alternatives, like sugar, relies on monocrops in third world countries, with transient labour. Growing up, there was a sugarcane field by my house, and I’m sure the Haitian men who worked backbreaking hours hacking a machete through knife-bladed leaves in 40 degree heat for a couple dollars a day would have traded a testicle to be a Canadian honeybee. Stevia’s going the same way, iirc.
Additionally, apiarists are actually huge proponents and activists for sustainable bee-keeping, and it’s estimated that the domesticated hive may be the last great hope for declining populations, because we can optimize their chances for survival.
It’s their life’s work, sure, but it’s not the death of them to use it responsibly.
literally read anything about the history of sugarcane and the cuban sugar industry if you think sugar is or ever has been more ethical than honey
Beekeepers-
- Provide a home for the bees
- Keep that home warm in the winter
- Keep the bees well fed, negating the need for honey, which the bees would make anyways
- Still do not take all the honey, just in case
- Protect the bees from predators
- Monitor the hives for any signs of the parasites, diseases, etc. that cause colony collapse disorder
Their bees-
- Provide a valuable and reliable source of pollination for plants in the area, both wild and crops
- Help keep the local ecosystem healthy
Honey-
- Is one of the healthiest things you can eat
- Is able to keep for a EXTREMELY long time (Millennia even), making it more valuable than many perishable foods without being full of preservatives
- Can be used to soothe sore throats, nauseau, etc.
- Has been eaten by humans since at least Ancient Egypt (We’ve found STILL EDIBLE honey in tombs)
- Is a great tool in cooking, adding sweetness without raising the sugar content much
- Is a staple food in many people’s diets
Honey is amazing you can put it on or in pretty much everything I goddamn love it and you should too.
Honey is also a natural antimicrobial that has been used medicinally since time out of mind on external wounds like edible neosporin.
Particularly useful in the treatment of dermal abcesses.
Bees are dying. The more people eat honey, the more beekeepers can support keeping bees, and figuring out why.
Eating honey doesn’t hurt bees. It keeps bees alive.
