Fate is fluid <| sep |> But what I ' m saying is we only accept that the brain controls feelings and the mind because that ' s how it is with us . We have no way of knowing that plants dont have the same feelings only controlled through the phloem or some shit . Just as an example , the smell of cut grass is the plants communicating through chemicals to say HOLY SHIT WHO JUST CUT MY HEAD OFFI don ' t agree that they can ' t logically be compared . The lack of qualities is its quality . That ' s like saying the vacuum of space doesn ' t exist , there ' s nothing there but we sure as he ' ll know it ' s real . I agree that we should give animals the best conditions possible , but we also need to get some credit for them being there in the first place . Like I said , we ' re never going to see eye to eye on this . We ' re just gonna keep arguing in circles about whether life is better than a lack of life or not .
