I'm having a bit of a crisis, because I'm realizing how much of
my life requires potential violence or death.
• I can't leave the house to do anything, because I would need a
car to get to my destination, which would potentially run over
insects on the road or kill them by having them slam against the
windshield. I'm basically trapped in my home unless I absolutely
have to leave for activistic purposes, or to get food. This
especially sucks because I have a friend who I enjoy hanging out
with, and we had also made a habit of going to Halloween Horror
Nights every year. Both of which, I can no longer do.
• I can't buy books, because books are made from trees, trees
are plants, plants are alive, and therefore something needs to
be killed to make that book.
• I can't order anything online in general, because they're sent
to your house in a cardboard box, which is made from trees.
• I have to constantly be conscientious of where I step, what I
buy, and how every single product I buy is produced, lest I
accidentally step on a bug or support an unethical company or
purchase an item that seems fairly innocuous on the surface, but
in actuality required the death of something to produce.
I hate that people have to bargain with the Demiurge in order
for their lives to be easier. It seems like the only options for
me from here on out (besides becoming a bodhisattva), are to
either be complicit in the deaths of living beings, or
alternatively to live a rather boring and stressful life simply
so that I'm NOT complicit in the deaths of living beings. This
only makes me more angry at my parents than I already was. I
didn't ask for any of this.

If you care about paper, you should promote this. As a matter of
fact, ancient paper was also made from waste materials:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_paper#Paper_primary_materials
--- Quote ---
> Bast (hemp and flax), cotton, and old rags and ropes were the
major input materials for producing the pulp. Sometimes a
mixture of materials was also used for pulp making, such as
cotton and hemp, or flax and hemp.[39][40] Other uncommon
primary materials such as fig tree bark are also reported in
some manuscripts.[41]

until Western civilization decided to 'improve' things:
--- Quote ---
> until the advent of steam-driven paper making machines in the
19th century, which could make paper with fibres from wood pulp.
Although older machines pre-dated it, the Fourdrinier
papermaking machine became the basis for most modern
papermaking. Nicholas Louis Robert of Essonnes, France, was
granted a patent for a continuous paper making machine in 1799.
At the time he was working for Leger Didot with whom he
quarrelled over the ownership of the invention. Didot sent his
brother-in-law, John Gamble, to meet Sealy and Henry
Fourdrinier, stationers of London, who agreed to finance the
project. Gamble was granted British patent 2487 on 20 October
1801. With the help particularly of Bryan Donkin, a skilled and
ingenious mechanic, an improved version of the Robert original
was installed at Frogmore Paper Mill, Hertfordshire, in 1803,
followed by another in 1804. A third machine was installed at
the Fourdriniers' own mill at Two Waters. The Fourdriniers also
bought a mill at St Neots intending to install two machines
there and the process and machines continued to develop.
>
> However, experiments with wood showed no real results in the
late 18th century and at the start of the 19th century. By 1800,
Matthias Koops (in London, England) further investigated the
idea of using wood to make paper, and in 1801 he wrote and
published a book titled Historical account of the substances
which have been used to describe events, and to convey ideas,
from the earliest date, to the invention of paper.[102] His book
was printed on paper made from wood shavings (and adhered
together). No pages were fabricated using the pulping method
(from either rags or wood). He received financial support from
the royal family to make his printing machines and acquire the
materials and infrastructure needed to start his printing
business. But his enterprise was short lived. Only a few years
following his first and only printed book (the one he wrote and
printed), he went bankrupt. The book was very well done (strong
and had a fine appearance), but it was very
costly.[103][104][105]
>
> Then in the 1830s and 1840s, two men on two different
continents took up the challenge, but from a totally new
perspective. Both Friedrich Gottlob Keller and Charles Fenerty
began experiments with wood but using the same technique used in
paper making; instead of pulping rags, they thought about
pulping wood. And at about the same time, by mid-1844, they
announced their findings. They invented a machine which
extracted the fibres from wood (exactly as with rags) and made
paper from it. Charles Fenerty also bleached the pulp so that
the paper was white. This started a new era for paper making. By
the end of the 19th-century almost all printers in the western
world were using wood instead of rags to make paper.[106]

@90sRetroFan I could ride a bike, but then I still run into the
problem of potentially running over small insects that I can't
see from on top of the seat (like ants). Tangentially related,
I've heard you mention that it would be hard for an Aryan to
enjoy the outdoors, since they would have to remain mindful of
where they step. How would this extend to childcare? If a child
just wants to play outside, would you let them?

You could also help as many of the smallest creatures you come
across who need help as you can, like a bee drowning for
example, in the hopes that you may mitigate some of the damage
you have done to others while you were alive in the material
world. I know I'm a piece of shyte, but I have tried to help as
many non-humans as possible whenever I can.

"If a child just wants to play outside, would you let them?"
Yes. It is up to us to build outdoor play areas such that
insects are unlikely to cross through. As long as there is no
grass etc. nearby it should be OK. In fact, did you look at the
excellent photos at the link in this post?

> [quote]The worker termites bring plant material such as dried
grass, decaying wood and leaf litter, back to the mound. This
material is chewed up and semi-digested by the termites,
fertilised with their faeces and placed in the chambers where it
is quickly colonised by the fungus to form a "fungus comb". The
termites cultivate these fungus gardens, adding more substrate
as required, and removing the older parts of the comb for
consumption by all members of the colony.[5]

> Leaf cutter ants are sensitive enough to adapt to the fungi's
reaction to different plant material, apparently detecting
chemical signals from the fungus. If a particular type of leaf
is toxic to the fungus, the colony will no longer collect it.
> ...
> The fungi used by the higher attine ants no longer produce
spores. These ants fully domesticated their fungal partner 15
million years ago, a process that took 30 million years to
complete.[8] Their fungi produce nutritious and swollen hyphal
tips (gongylidia) that grow in bundles called staphylae, to
specifically feed the ants.[9]
> ...
> The Atta colombica species, unusually for the Attine tribe,
have an external waste heap. Waste transporters take the waste,
which consists of used substrate and discarded fungus, to the
waste heap. Once dropped off at the refuse dump, the heap
workers organise the waste and constantly shuffle it around to
aid decomposition. A compelling observation of A. colombica was
the dead ants placed around the perimeter of the waste
heap.[10][11]

Just as there are Aryan bugs, so there are apparently Turanian
bugs as well:

[Quote]
If cutter ants are the vegetable farmers of the ant world,
herder ants are the ranchers.
[B]Much the same way we keep cattle, these ants keep aphids,
which drink plants’ nutrients and excrete a sugary substance
called honeydew that ants eat[/B]. Some species of herder ants
follow the green creatures, devouring their droppings, while
others milk their herds by tickling them with their antennae.
The only difference is that the milk comes out of the cows’
udders while the honeydew flows out of the aphids’ anus — not
that the ants seem to mind.
[B]In return, ants shepherd their bug flocks to better pastures
and shield them from rain, sometimes carrying them from one
plant to another.[/b] Ants care for and protect aphids’ eggs,
treating them as their own and keeping them safe inside their
colonies for winter. When a young queen of a “dairy ant” colony
leaves on a mating flight, she brings an aphid in her mouth to
her new home. [B]And just like humans take away their animals’
freedom in exchange for care and protection, so do ants.
Sometimes they bite off aphids’ wings so the “milk cows” won’t
fly away, and release chemicals that make aphids move slower,
becoming more docile. [/B]To reciprocate, ants protect their
livestock from predators. They attack ladybugs that try to feast
on their herds just like we would ward off a pack of wolves from
our bovine beasts. And yet, much like we eat our cattle, ants
sometimes devour aphids too.

There are also Aryan fish:

--- Quote ---
> "The most common algae they can eat, the red alga
Polysiphonia, are less competitive than the inedible species and
so the damselfish help them out by killing off their rivals.
This 'gardening' behavior results in a mutualistic association
between Polysiphonia and this particular species of damselfish
and it is notable for being one of the first examples of
mutualism to be found in a non-terrestrial habitat. Speaking
about the results, Hata said, "Obligate reciprocal interaction
between marine algae and herbivorous damselfish, called
'cultivation mutualism' was found to be largely maintained in
the Indo-West Pacific."
--- End Quote ---
Note in particular that the damselfish kill the MORE COMPETITIVE
algae to help the LESS COMPETITIVE algae. Hence they are not
just Aryans, they are literally National Socialists!
