@catsalad only if they swallow
@cR0w "I bit, but did not inhale!"
@catsalad CatSalad for President 

@cR0w
But with her track record of crashing syst... ooooh!

@catsalad

@jackryder @catsalad Why would you vote for Cat as president if you didn't want everything shoved off the counter?

@cR0w

Clearly you missed your calling and are wasting your abilities in infosec.

@catsalad we have found your chief of staff.

@jackryder @catsalad

during the summit

Cat: rolls onto their back and shows belly

Foreign leader: reaches in for pets

Foreign leader's security detail: Your highness, it's a trap!

But it's too late. Cat saved the world again.

@cR0w @jackryder The cutest of assassinations! :3

@cR0w @jackryder @catsalad

In a stunning reversal of white house fiscal policy today, President Toonces veto'd the Senate's bi-petisan economic stimulus bill by batting it off the edge of the Resolute desk, then shredding it with her claws. When asked for comment during today's press briefing the President responded only "Meorw." For more, we turn now to Cat News Network's Neko Nakamura, senior White House Catespondant.. Neko, this must come as a blow to the senate Feline majority leaders..

@cR0w @catsalad God dammit, I just wrote that and then deleted it in shame when all the replies loaded lmao.

@catsalad

O Only if they swallow

@catsalad More pertinent: If a vegan bites someone, does that someone become a vegan? 
@phryk @catsalad Only if the the vegan who bit them was Count Duckula.

@phryk @catsalad they'd have to bite hard enough to not be vegan to spread the condition, which would prevent it from spreading.

So, No.

@phryk @catsalad Only if it was a radioactive vegan. But the bite victim also gains the relative strength and speed of a vegan.
@the_gneech @phryk @catsalad If it ever reaches a point that biting a vegan also confers their health, vegans had better watch out. 😁
@phryk @catsalad Same. Depends on how hard they bite, in both cases.
@phryk @catsalad if a vegan bites someone, they are no longer a vegan
@catsalad I mean, realistically, the case can be made… because kinky vegans are a thing and romantic partners tend to have a pretty big influence on each other. 
@phryk @catsalad would watch the Resident Vegan series of horror movies.
@phryk I’m starting to wonder wether it’s safe to invite a vegan into my home. @catsalad

@catsalad

It's similar to vampires - the one who's bitten will transform into vegan!

@catsalad Vegan is only about animals. Eating humans is totaly vegan.
@Hal_9000 So would a vegan cannibal be a vegan that eats people or just other vegans?
@catsalad Eating people is fine, you'll only have to check for maggots, trichinella and worms. Eating them is not vegan.

@catsalad @Hal_9000 Correction: Eating **consenting** human is vegan.

Kids, remember to ask for a consent before eating someone

Veganism - Wikipedia

@Hal_9000 @catsalad So... You want to tell me that I am in fact not a vegan?
@Hal_9000 @paveljanicek @catsalad it doesn't say human either
@catsalad @Hal_9000 a matter of consent. Animals can't consent.
@catsalad key is that you now have two werevegans
@catsalad The person they bit becomes vegan
@catsalad It's not the biting so much as the chewing and swallowing
@catsalad depends on whether the bitten consents 
@catsalad if unconsensual for the purpose of eating no. the rest yes

@sophie @catsalad

Is there any legal mechanism to concentrate to be eaten by another person? 🤔🤷‍♂️

@catsalad as a vegan, I only refuse to bite animals (except for the occasional insect that chooses to travel visa-free through my alimentary canal)

humans are fair game
@catsalad Missing "depends on if they consent". 😂 Isn't that what veganism is about?
@catsalad Depends on whether the biting was consensual, surely?
@catsalad only if the bitee is vegan.
@catsalad I think vegans can eat meat if the meat source consents, so the real answer is "it depends".
@ainmosni @catsalad Wasn't that a whole Thing a while back where a consenting person wanted to have a part of them amputated and eaten by someone else? I don't remember what happened to that - likely they couldn't find any hospital ethics board willing to sign off on it.
@JessTheUnstill @catsalad That was here in Germany indeed, you can read more about it here. The homocide complicates the matter though.
Armin Meiwes - Wikipedia

@ainmosni @catsalad Yikes that's... A rough read. I stopped after the first paragraph or two of the murder....
@JessTheUnstill @catsalad Yeah it's fucked up, which is not surprising considering the subject matter.
@catsalad
if they got consent, sure
@catsalad provided they got consent first, yes. there is applicable online precedent but it's a trifle squicky.
@catsalad well, it depends if they bite a human or an animal.
In the same way of thinking, if you make cheese with your own milk, is it vegan?

@catsalad

if a vegan bites someone, they lose their vegan status for 48 hours.

@paul_ipv6 @catsalad Do they also lose their vegan superpowers?
