20.01.2022 The simplest truths are often the hardest to swallow, when they aren't convenient to the mainstream paradigm. This is an article written by a non-vegan stating that all evidence of pandemics leads to the conclusion that we should all be vegan.
19.01.2022 Thank you Veef!
19.01.2022 Vegan law in Australia The link below will take you to a petition about creating vegan laws. It will only be active for one more day. Sign if you'd like to see a vegan Australia.

15.01.2022 Inspo for today! I love Tamasin's story. It really resonates with Golden Age Politics and the concept that politics can be a form of high spiritual service. Tamasin attended the Plant-Powered Women Leadership conference in Sydney in 2018. She travelled interstate to attend. I was touched by that and more profoundly by her subtle yet powerful presence. She was humble despite her achievements and appeared to be there to provide a quiet support for the event. Even though I wa...s super busy on the day with managing the event, her presence there was one of my fondest memories. I'm so glad she has chosen to use all of her wonderful skills and qualities to work in parliament. Thank you Tamasin for doing what you're doing to make the world a kinder place for animals. There's only 8 DAYS TO GO to order your copies of Golden Age Politics on Kickstarter. Check out the information about the book here: https://www.kickstarter.com//kathydivi/golden-age-politics Link also in bio! Image description: Person walking down an empty highway with shrubs either side of the highway. Small image of the front cover of Golden Age Politics and the quote: "It doesn't matter who you are or where you come from. I failed high school and got myself a PhD. I was an apolitical sister in a meditation order and am now Parliamentary Advisor to an MP for the Animal Justice Party. I had no plan, no strategy, no overarching vision. But I did have a drive, a sense of urgency, and training in compassion." ~ Dr Tamasin Ramsay, Chapter four, Golden Age Politics

15.01.2022 Vegan cake!! Sara does amazing videos. Really easy to follow and beautiful production.
15.01.2022 Please share :-) Today is World Day for Animals in Laboratories. Please register below. ... Many of us aren't sure what to say when someone says "If your mum had cancer would you still want to save a rat?" or similar. We have felt a dilemma, having believed that this choice exists. While we know that we don't have a right to harm the animal for any reason, believing that this choice (save animals OR humans) exists renders us unable to answer in a way which would encourage the questioner to be opposed to vivisection. Simply, if humans believe that this choice exists 99% will choose to save the human. Calling them "speciesist" or similar does nothing to help animals. The good news, as many of you now know, is that this choice doesn't exist. Animal experiments do not help humans and in fact delay and prevent medical benefits to humans, delay warnings on harmful products and are a legal, not a scientific device. If you want to advocate better for animals in laboratories please register at the link below. It's free and takes just a minute. You'll access a webinar and have regular real time communication with experienced activists. While we keep using ineffective arguments, animals keep being vivisected. They're relying on you. https://saveanimalsinlabs.info/
13.01.2022 As part of the planning of the launch of the Golden Age Politics book campaign on Kickstarter, I looked for someone who disliked/hated politics who was willing to keep an open mind, read the book and write/record a genuine review. I also wanted to inspire the younger generations with the hopeful messages contained in the book. I approached Renee Buckingham from Sydney Vegan Guide and Melb Vegan Guide for a review. She wasn't a politics lover. Here is her review of Golden Age... Politics. Share this video with the people in your life who need some hope and are open to seeing politics in a new, positive way. Also, because the younger generations need their chance at a good life and the animals deserve their peace and freedom.

06.01.2022 Why might someone experience cognitive problems, like brain fog or forgetfulness, on a vegan diet? Veganism is often unfairly blamed for every ailment that we... happen to experience. Its absolutely true that nutrient deficiencies can lead to cognitive problems (B12 deficiency, for example). However, simply being vegan doesnt automatically mean that someone will be nutrient deficient (just as eating flesh and secretions doesnt guarantee protection from deficiencies). In fact, there are many lifestyle factors that significantly impact our brain. And its often surprising just how profoundly they do. Some common ones are: Chronic stress or burnout Insufficient sleep or poor sleep quality Substance use Mental illness like depression or anxiety Certain prescription medications If youre concerned about your cognitive functioning, see your doctor and get some bloodwork done. Make a note of the type of problems youre noticing (forgetfulness, poor concentration, mental fatigue...?) and whether other people have noticed as well. Also note when these problems tend to occur, and in what situations. Do an audit of your diet, sleep habits, physical health, mental health, stress management, social supports, and leisure activities. Were usually only as strong as our weakest link. When you see your doctor for your bloodwork results, take your notes along and have an honest conversation about what might be happening, and what can be done to improve things. Enlist people to help you, if you can, and pay attention - because anything that affects your body will affect your brain too.

02.01.2022 Vivisection: if you present this as an animals versus humans issue the animals will lose as they have for over a century. Join a free webinar here https://savea...nimalsinlabs.info/ For a compilation of expert quotes against vivisection message me or comment. If you want to stop this you MUST show people that it does not help humans. Also show images of what happens to animals. Waiting for humans to care about mice and monkeys as much as they do about themselves is obviously foolish and the animals are the victims of that folly. It's difficult to find anything in the spectrum of human activity, past or present, which has been a bigger failure than animal experiments. Where else have we failed millions of times yet continue? And this causes enormous suffering to animals, cures nothing and uses billions of dollars. So why does it continue? The misleading results in animals help to keep warnings off harmful substances, diminish harmed people's chances of litigation, ensure profitable diseases remain uncured while providing hope. As a result of these profitable benefits, careers, titles and institutions are created and maintained. Yet the public regards this cruel fraud as science. Wake them up. The history of cancer research has been a history of curing cancer in the mouse. We have cured mice of cancer for decades, and it simply didnt work in humans. Dr Richard Klausner, Director, National Cancer Institute, LA Times, May 6.1998 Lab micehave responded quite well to an experimental Alzheimers vaccineLab rats with paralyzing spinal-cord injuries have walked againAnd weve cured cancer in enough rodents to fill several New York City subway systems. For people, however, there is no cure for spinal-cord injury, Alzheimers, Parkinsons disease, multiple sclerosis, cystic fibrosis, osteoporosis, brain and other cancersthe list goes on. (Sharon Begley, Research lags due to few physician-scientists, Wall Street Journal, 25 April 2003). "The US National Cancer Institute also undertook a 25 year screening programme, testing 400,000 plant species on animals for anti-tumour activity. Out of the outrageously expensive research, many positive results surfaced in animal models, but not a single benefit emerged for humans. As a result, the NCI now uses human cancer cells for cytotoxic screening.[25]" Handbook of Laboratory Animal Science, Volume II Animal Models Svendensen and Hau (Eds.) CRC Press 1994 p4.
