  • The Oldest Bond
    May 12 2026

    Motherhood is not a human invention.

    On Mother's Day, Animal in the Machine looks at the bonds we celebrate today — and the ones we systematically sever.

  • What Needs Saving
    May 4 2026

    The Save Our Bacon Act just passed the House of Representatives. Its stated goal is protecting interstate commerce.

    What it would actually do is nullify voter-approved state laws banning gestation crates, battery cages, and veal crates — the most basic protections farm animals have.

    From Richard Feynman's suspiciously average IQ score to the cognitive lives of cows, chickens, and pigeons, this is an invitation to widen the lens.

    Because the capacity to sense, process, and respond to the world isn't a human invention.
