In Nilered's making human kibble video, at the beginning he laments about humans spending 7 years of our lives preparing food. He says it's a waste of time; and this made me realize something about humans: we've completely lost the plot. Somewhere along the way we've lost what it is to be alive. Every plant and animal spends a large chunk of it's time and energy in the pursuit and consumption of food. Whether it's hunting, gathering, scavenging, photosynthesizing, or shopping and preparing, we all do it. But somehow as a species we've gotten so busy and self important that we think we're above and more important than needs every organism has. Genuinely saddening
