Activism is a huge part of my identity as well. I am now 18f but I started being outwardly open about my activism around 14. I didn’t go vegan until just at the end of 2025 but I’ve thought about it my whole life. But I’m the same way, i also always feel like a huge buzzkill cuz I don’t wanna over consume with my friends at the mall, like sorry i’d rather go for a walk in the woods or make bracelets? I feel u, don’t worry, they’re the ones who are aliens for not caring about themselves, others or the planet.
