    Wait, so I get to talk and cuddle a bunch of chickens, cows, and pigs? That doesn’t sound so bad. I’d be happy to make amends with them. I’d love to see what they’d have to say about the industrial food complex.

      The thing about asking forgiveness and making amends that people tend to forget is that you have to actually regret it. If you’re just like “sorry I killed you, but you were delicious!” you’re not really making amends.

      I’ve got a friend trying desperately to teach their toddler that biting someone while apologizing for biting them doesn’t prevent them from getting in trouble.

      I’m sure the local pigherder thinks I’m crazy but I love meeting their piglets. Then I go get a nice breakfast with extra bacon. It’s like getting sushi after visiting the aquarium.
