I feel like bees are a bit of a grey area. We're not eating them, we're kind of like landlords that give them a nice place to stay and they pay rent in honey. I'm not vegan so I'm not quite sure what the rationale is for bee stuff.

I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with my landlord harvesting my vomit as rent.

"I'm eating it, I promise it's not a sex thing."

If my bank accepted vomit as mortgage payments, they could smack my ass and call me bulimic, I don't care what y'all do with my vomit, let's talk about pool house options and a second car.

I'd be cool with creaming their coffee twice a week if it meant I got my house for no money.

I don't think comparing beekeeping to landlordism makes it sound very ethical at all

Some folks believe that fish aren't animals, either.

The state of California consider bees as fish.

I thought you were kidding but no, they do and the reason is otherwise they wouldn't fit under environmental protection laws.

Someone once told me "meat is murder, but fish is justifiable homicide". I hope that helps.

I appeal to the Director of Veganism!
