Every factory-farmed animal is, as a practice, treated in ways that would be illegal if it were a dog or a cat.

There are still many different ways to get stuck, existentially stuck. Feeling like, "This is worthless. I'm wasting my time, and I would be wasting the time of someone who tried to read this." It happens all the time.
