Salutations social ones,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Behold the new year and the virgin months laid out fresh before us! I would be amiss not to wish everyone a very happy new year, though I learnt that in polite society this is only said up until 7th January. Excuse my tardiness! As we launch into 2026, I'm delighted to continue to share this fortnightly 5 Bullet Friday with 5 social tips, tit-bits, treats and talking points, all of which I've come across or re-discovered over the past 2 weeks! Please enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. What I'm writing<\/strong>: Welcome to the Land of Oz: an anti-speciesist review of Wicked: For Good<\/strong><\/u><\/a> - I penned this short article after going to see Part 2 of the Wicked film adaptation.

What I'm right about: <\/strong>Dog food causing 1% of emissions<\/u><\/a><\/strong> - Not exactly 'right', but it has been a long-standing penchant of mine to rail against the pet industry. The incredible rise in the popularity of pets, like so much else in our consumer-driven world, comes with little consciousness of the associated environment impacts. We could add to this the moral impact too, where in the UK it is estimated that over 100 million livestock animals are killed to make pet food. How is it defensible to love our dogs so much, yet care so little for over sentient beings - not to mention our planet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. What I'm sharing: Veganism around the World<\/u><\/a> <\/strong>- This new report from The Vegan Society looks at veganism in countries all around the world. It offers fascinating insights into what has caused veganism to surge in some countries versus others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/u><\/a>4. What I'm recommending: M<\/a>y 2025 Top Five Recommendations <\/strong><\/u><\/strong>- Each year, I make what I call a 'Consumption List' - a page in my notebook where I record every single book, film, show and concert that I see. I give everything a quick star-rating too. Looking back on last year, here are some of those that got awarded 5 stars: <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. What I'm getting ready for: Febrero sin tel\u00e9fono<\/u><\/a><\/strong> - It's that time again! In just a couple of weeks, we'll be launching the 2026 edition of Febrero sin tel\u00e9fono<\/em>.
