A changelog of this week’s moves appears in B4

Yeh it is. I just added that youtube video as the game reminded me of that classic

It’s too cold to do anything productive so I’ve resorted to playing this fantastic MMO: https://onemillioncheckboxes.com/

That’s what makes it a privilege.

Completely wrong. You can still be vegan even if you aren’t able to live without being forced to use animal products. The literal definition of veganism includes “as far as is possible and practicable” for reason. Please make sure you read the sidebar as that distinction is very important. It allows all the things that you’ve outlined in your comment as acceptable under the definition of veganism.

Archive link as it was paywalled for me

Thanks for posting here @hamid@vegantheoryclub.org! I’ll add these to this community’s sidebar.

(Also, really like your lemmy instance’s default theme!)

This looks like that lake SCP

I wish for 1000 more @fossilesque@mander.xyz posts! Your memes make great reading material for bed :)

Are the small portable ones any good? Didn’t know they were this cheap

I think we might have been allowed to do it as one of the reasons to go out, but I remember for at least one of them I had to hand wash my clothes like I’m doing now

No worries.

I know you mean well, but I think that kind of thinking is what got me with covid in the first place. I don’t want to risk continuing to spread it further to other people, not a chance.

For some reason it’s only occurred to me now that clothes can be washed by hand and that I know how to do that 🤦‍♀️

Well, I know what I am doing today…

Never realised how bad it is not having my own washing machine until now—testing positive a week later. I ran out of towels near the start as I was due for a wash and I just ran out of clean clothes then.

My only symptom now is reduced smell and I feel fine in every other respect, but I’m not gonna be that person who rocks up to the laundromat covid positive—it can wait (hopefully).

Thanks. How is your sense of smell going? Remember you commenting that you lost it a bit ago, hope it comes back :)

Covid finally got to me. Grocery order got half delivered so my housemate went to sims footscray a week ago and got the Schroeder Special (coining it as Schrovid). Now I have it so I’m just resting at home with a fever. Quite an anticlimactic end to my covid free streak. Hopefully my chronic fatigue doesn’t play up after this. Am I meant to be doing anything other than resting and staying hydrated? I’m just planning on exclusively resting and playing Baldur’s Gate 3 for the foreseeable future lol

It’s gotten to the point where it’s too cold to get out of bed, but it’s also too cold in bed so I just kinda push through and get up anyways

Do you have anybody who can sneak food in for you? I had a friend in ICU who was refused vegan food. I visited them and found out they hadn’t eaten, so I head to the nearest store and get them food and smuggle it in (as well as their meds they were refused access to).

It was also the case that in their file they were not marked as vegan despite telling all the doctors and nurses. I had to suss out the treating doctor as they were the only one who could add that to the file, but even then they thought it meant “veggo” (Vegeterian) and that ultimately didn’t fix the issue. So it could be the case that you haven’t told the right person? I understand it’s stupid that you have to go through all this effort, but don’t give out hope as it might be a management issue stopping you from getting food.

You can’t just title a post here as “Study:” and not link to any relevant scientific literature. I couldn’t find any research referenced in your article, only youtube videos and news articles. Those are not problematic references in and of itself for a blog, but they are not studies which is what your title seems to indicate that you are talking about. Please just link the DOI of the paper you are talking about and stop self posting Medium articles with no references!

You then mention “20 compelling reasons to adopt a whole food, plant-based diet” which is not directly related to veganism. Most of your reasons come across as snake-oil cures to every aliment by practicing a plant based diet. Plant based =/= vegan. Remember where you are posting this, this is a vegan community after all. Reason 20 seems a bit strange as “reducing animal product consumption” is not what most vegans are trying to do. We aim to eliminate it the best we can.

I have messaged you on Lemmy two weeks ago regarding posting medium articles with tracking links (unique friend codes that bypass the paywall/loginwall) and I have commented publicly telling you to post the articles in the comments so that it is accessible for everyone to read. You still haven’t replied to a simple question about if you were writing these articles yourself and self-promoting them, and I made sure not to allude to if such a thing was welcomed or not as I wanted a discussion about it and for there to be transparency regarding self-promotion and biases.

This is a warning that if you post any misleading articles, or plant-based health dieting blogs, that you will not be allowed to post here again. If you could just respond to the criticism in the comments that would be very helpful as it is very unclear what your intentions are and people may assume the worst or unreasonably overlook this as you can’t assume anything from the little discourse there is from you.

You currently have 25 posts and 2 comments on your profile. It’s in your best interest to see your engagement go up.

You’re not alone. This isn’t normal and you’re not crazy for not wanting to be spied on just for making the mistake of going outside and walking past someone’s house.

Please post the article in the comments so that everyone can read it. Also, are you writing these articles?
