ORCAS AND DOLPHINS DO NOT BELONG IN CAPTIVITY!
Keeping #dolphins, #orcas and other cetaceans in #captivity is cruel. Depriving them of the vast open spaces and social bonds that they would normally have in the wild, and confining them to small, concrete #tanks to perform tricks for dead fish is highly unethical for these complex marine mammals. No matter how sophisticated the enclosure, no man made facility can ever hope to replicate the wild world of dolphins and whales.

The responsibility of love:
To keep another's heart safe.
~ Bridgett Devoue
So we lift our gazes not to what stands between us, but what stands before us.
We close the divide because we know to put our future first, we must first put
our differences aside. We lay down our arms so we can reach out our arms to
one another, we seek harm to none and harmony for all.
Let the globe, if nothing else, say this is true: that even as we grieved, we grew,
even as we hurt, we hoped, that even as we tired, we tried, that weโll forever be
tied together victorious,

โThe Hill We Climbโ - Amanda Gorman
When day comes we ask ourselves, where can we find light in this never-
ending shade? The loss we carry, a sea we must wade. Weโve braved the belly
of the beast, weโve learned that quiet isnโt always peace and the norms and
notions of what just is, isnโt always justice.
And yet the dawn is ours before we
knew it, somehow we do it, somehow weโve weathered and witnessed a nation
that isnโt broken but simply unfinished.
We, the successors of a country and a time where a skinny black girl
descended from slaves and raised by a single mother can dream of becoming
president only to find herself reciting for one. And, yes, we are far from
polished, far from pristine, but that doesnโt mean we are striving to form a
union that is perfect, we are striving to forge a union with purpose, to compose
a country committed to all cultures, colors, characters and conditions of man.

What should young people do with their lives today? Many things, obviously. But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured.

#Galicia has just greenlit an experimental octopus farm, a decision that goes against the growing international momentum to BAN this cruel practice. Backed by seafood giant #Profand, this farm will confine solitary, extremely intelligent animals in overcrowded tanks, causing immense stress and suffering.
#Octopuses are not livestock. They are sentient beings with complex nervous systems, capable of problem-solving, tool use, and even recognising faces.

This isnโt progress, don't be fooled. Itโs a huge step backwards.
One of Galicia's traditional dishes is octopus, and with their population decreasing due to overfishing, this is the only solution they came up with. Remember that if there isn't demand, there won't be any market.
