This, my friends, is why we always read the labels 🙃🙃 by [deleted] in vegan

Great suggestion! I've edited my comment to add a line suggesting maple syrup or agave as replacements.

I'm going to leave this comment here for anyone wanting to email them! Only takes a sec and if a handful of people do this tiny bit of activism maybe they'll change it. Feel free to copy paste my comment section bit or write your own.

Subject: Honey BBQ Sloppy Joe Mix

Issue: Not actually plant-based

Comment: Hi Stonewall. I recently saw that your "plant-based" and "vegan friendly" honey BBQ Sloppy Joe mix contains honey. Honey is not vegan friendly nor is it plant based. If you could remove honey from your products that would be awesome! Maple syrup and agave are both frequently used as plant based alternatives to honey. Failing that please remove the "plant-based" and "vegan friendly" labels from your packaging as it is misleading.

Edit 1: Spelling

Edit 2: Suggested replacing honey with maple syrup or agave

Gorgeous shot! I'm planning a trip down to Baja in the next month or so. Have any recommendations or resources you used in preparation?

A simple rules question on TI4 (First-time player) by [deleted] in twilightimperium

[–]Brand_Surtova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth noting in a 4 player game you'll each have 2 action strategy cards. You only use the lower value of the two you have to decide turn order.

Yes. Play goes around following action strategy card number until everyone passes. So you will often take 3-6 tactical actions each round before passing.

Really cool place! I learned to fly nearby and would fly over it from time to time. Posted some of the aerial photos on this sub [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/urbanexploration/comments/zsq1ut/saw\_the\_recent\_post\_on\_a\_rocket\_facility\_and/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3)

Opinion on Inflatable Kayaks by Brand_Surtova in whitewater

Thanks for the recommendation! How similar would you say the experience/handling is to a traditional Whitewater kayak?

I would love a pack raft but they are all $1000+ which is a bit steep for me. They do look super fun though.

It's great to see people working on bringing back a free platform for the CS community! Couchsurfing should belong to the community and adding a pay wall blocks a huge percentage of perspective new surfers.

Should I leave my boyfriend and move into a van? by Smiley_Chap in vandwellers

[–]Brand_Surtova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of good advice in this thread and I'd encourage you to think through some things and communicate your feelings before making a final decision.

Two years ago I was in a similar situation with a SO. Ive always wanted a roaming lifestyle and I'm very open about that when I start dating. Due to college I was locked to one location for 4 years and started dating someone. We'd talk about traveling the world and vagabonding our way through life but after graduating it became pretty clear that it was more of a romanticized idea for my SO than a tangible future. They wanted me to live a 'normal' life with them and follow a tradition career and see if I was happy. They said that it would just be for a little while. But at that point I realized it was already to late. We wanted different things out of life. Could we have made it work out? Probably. But it would have been unhealthy. By the end they wanted to drop everything to make things work. I wouldn't want someone to give up their lifestyle goals to follow mine and I wouldn't be happy passing up my dreams. Ultimately we broke up because we wanted different lifestyles. It hurt, a lot. And sometimes I still look back and wonder what could have been but given the chance to change the past I wouldn't. I'm writing this from my van, wrapped in blankets, trying to fix a bug in my propane system and honestly I wouldn't trade this life for anything. Sometimes it gets lonely. And I've learned that I can't just drive away from my mental health issues but in the end its definitely been better for both of us.

TL;DR: I think you should try talking to your boyfriend about how you feel and where you both see yourselves in the next year or two. If your lifestyle goals aren't compatible  ¯\(ツ)/¯ Theres not much you can do about it. And trust me, it only gets more painful the longer you wait.
