You rock, Heather. Reading Eating Animals changed my life, and how I eat, five years ago. I appreciate your honesty, and your willingness to bare your struggles with us.

Thank you and welcome back. I have been struggling with feeling totally overwhelmed by the number of senators I should call about a million issues and all of the other ways I feel I need to be working to help in the wake of this election. It’s caused me a great deal of anxiety (as a fulltime working mom too), so I’ve been trying to tell myself that doing little things slowly is ok, just don’t get so overwhelmed that you do nothing. Reading your post makes me feel better, you always write about these things so well, I’m feeling less overwhelmed so I can pick up the phone again.
Thank you

I’m with you. I am terrified, anxious, depressed – but mostly, I am nearly consumed with disappointment in myself. I feel like I’ve failed my children. I also am going to be better.

Thank you for bringing Unilever’s efforts to my attention. I needed to be reminded that anyone (corporations are people, right?) can change. They aren’t the big bad ogre they once were. Does it stink that they’re absorbing so many family farms and private companies? Yes. Is it good that they’re now making an effort to embrace and continue more sustainable practices? Yes, that’s good too.

Welcome back. I envy your travel experiences. I related and hung on each word. It took me three weeks to blog something that didn’t sound like a 16-year-old who got grounded for a D in Algebra and couldn’t take the car out on a saturday night. We, and by we I mean white folks, need to listen, help, volunteer and fight where and when needed.

I can relate to those feelings as a middle-aged white man, but I’m worried my marriage might be voided. I can pass as straight but who wants to go back to those days. Every single name tossed around so far is anti-gay.
