You only eat cows you know? I'm getting confused now.
I only eat genetically engineered meat which wishes to be eaten:

Some days I am a vegetarian however, not for ethical reasons, but because I really hate plants and what they did to my mother. Fucking B12 deficiency almost took her life, and plants just sat on the table without any warning or obvious signs of distress cajoling her into thinking she wasn't killing lifeforms.

To avoid the 9-5 insanity.
You are correct. It doesn't matter if Sallie Q American values the welfare of her cat over the life of a starving child in Sub Saharan Africa or elsewhere. But Sallie should just bear that in mind when her son little Johnny is diagnosed with leukemia. Maybe that's what it would take before she'll realize the selfishness in her way of thinking.
House pets can be special things in people's lives. I get that. But to even suggest that a dog or cat is more valuable to the world than a human being speaks volumes about you. Particularly if you are not a vegan.

Simply from your use of the terms "selfishness" and "valuable to the world", we see that the conflict here is not in my failing to rank species, but in my assertion that valuing loved ones above strangers can be ethically sound, even when multiple species are involved. It appears that you tend towards collectivism and have little tolerance for those who do not.
To have enough money to live from, give away some and do the things you like.
Should I get a flip phone? Or that would turn me into a über Hypster-ette
Well I could sell you an original star-tac and you could upgrade it with an arduino running a recompiled version of OpenVMS, then boast how you compose texts in vi.
I have no idea what you just said... There are at least 3 words I need to google lol

I'm aware that Target Corporation was once under fire for sourcing cotton from Uzbekistan (a state which uses slavery to harvest cotton), an issue it's since taken steps to address. I'm not finding anything similar concerning Target and Bangladesh.
Thanks for the info... anything and anyone involved in consumism and capitalism will be involved in some sort of malign actions.
Contrary to popular American belief...little brown kids in far away places are more important than your ugly family dog...you should act like it.

Importance is subjective. An American with a dog may well care more for it than for some unknown child of a distant land. This preference would be apparent, for example, in their spending more money on the health and comfort of the pet than on the same for the child. This is a common ethical position and is no less valid than your own.
Lol well I respect your point of view...
why am I a pretentious douche-ette?

Ok, maybe not evil...but a colossal douche-ette, yes. Apple is so lame. Their marketing is enough to make me want to huff gasoline until I die.
Pretentious much?

Personal financial freedom is having enough money to support the lifestyle you want for your entire life.
BTW there's been recent articles around to say that "money buys happiness, but only up to about 80,000 USD p/a", so we could presume that that means, you get enough to "be free" and do a lot of fulfilling things at 80K plus, and while you can do it with more bells and whistles on plusher carpets at much more than 80k, the core experience/satisfaction doesn't increase much, or that you don't get much "freer".
I like your answer
Maybe one of these days I get to experience 80k in my checking account haha
I know one thing that is not financial freedom, the 16th ammendment
Taxing income is bad enough. What is annoying is that the leeches of society also want to start taxing wealth.

Well "Financial Freedom" can mean a lot of things, it all depends on the context.

Financial freedom could aso mean having choices. Use banks or bitcoin to send money, for instance.
