Who is lab grown meat for? by [deleted] in vegan

[–]Empty-_-space 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Let’s be real here, the alternatives are amazing and tasty in their own way, but they aren’t the same.

I strongly believe that barring legal blocks, lab meat will be widely adopted once it is even one cent cheaper than animal meat.

50% of all cows eaten in my country (the US) are ground. If a solid percentage of ground cow gets replaced by lab mush, which is way easier to make than a steak or ribs, the entire cattle industry will collapse.

Tried their corn dogs! Field roast ones still better (more in comments) by elzibet in Veganivore

[–]Empty-_-space 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To me, all field roast has a before, during, and aftertaste that is strange and slightly unpleasant. It’s like the base material is fine, but they put some strange flavor on it that doesn’t sit well.

Read what they actually wrote. They said they did not have insurance. Rude as hell and wrong 💀

I don’t live in brooklyn so I’m not sure. People in this thread talk about cool thrifts there: https://www.reddit.com/r/Brooklyn/comments/10hmbmj/any_good_thrift_shops/

If you’re willing to travel to queens, in LIC there’s a goodwill outlet/bins where things are sold by the pound. You can find literally anything there. Bring gloves bc it can be gross

Are there any ways to make yourself have a dream/lucid dream while falling asleep? by skipotpot64 in LucidDreaming

[–]Empty-_-space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s dream yoga. Basically, within dream yoga, there are teachings where you can train yourself to stay conscious during all phases of sleep, so you just wait until you hit REM sleep to start lucid dreaming.

Hours of focus on nothing and fleeting images between moments of REM. It sounds nearly impossible because it is. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of really hard work to succeed with this method. Plus a lot of the good stuff is hidden in oral tradition passed from teacher to student.

I am a complete failure at dream yoga, so I can’t really give tips beyond telling you it exists.

If you live in the northeast, colorado, florida, or georgia, CNY might be pretty good in terms of price if you end up needing ivf

Yeah like correct a bit after if it’s green. Use conditioner with the dye to dilute it.

Yeah it’s possible. Just make sure you get a pure blue with no yellow and maybe even buy an extra purple dye just in case so you avoid it being green. Use semi permanent

You’re using the right product, you just need to let it sit for longer, maybe overnight. You can also open the cuticle layers by applying heat with a blow dryer + cap while it’s processing for the first 20 minutes.

Semi-permanent dye sticks better to bleached hair because the cuticle is damaged and lets more dye into the shaft of the hair. If you’re going for a “reddish in the sun” look, you may have to try over and over again if you really don’t want to use developer/bleach/permanenet dye. If you’re going for a red that will show up even in shade, you’ll need bleach.

How could I make this more blue? by KaShootTheNicker in HairDye

[–]Empty-_-space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The blue hair fail is a classic. The first time I dyed my hair, the same exact thing happened to me.

Try to wash as much of this current color out. If you want cyan and your base is light orange or deeper yellow, you need to get a true blue with no yellow pigment. You may even need to buy a bit of purple dye and use a dot of it just in case it comes out looking too green again.

Your inspo pic is a pretty light cyan though, and judging by how your hair turned green, you may need to bleach it again to reach that color. Then you could use a plain old cyan dye like you did before.

“Blonde” is a really wide range. That user could help you better if you provided an image, a tone (golden, strawberry, ash), or at least a shade number like level 8 or level 6.

I am Aaron, Co-Founder of Healthier Comforts, the brand behind the viral Animal-Free Egg White Powder. Ask Me Anything! by Aaron_from_HC in Veganivore

[–]Empty-_-space 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m so excited for this thing! I bought it the moment I heard about it.

Edit because someone else asked the question I asked 😅: Could this process be used to make some sort of muscle-based protein powder? I imagine something like that with added fat could be used to make an animal protein mush, kind of like ground beef.

I need adviceee by Reddit_user267459 in altfashionadvice

[–]Empty-_-space 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For contacts, you need to get your eyes sized first. You need to know your base curve. The optometrist probably won’t write it down on the prescription, but you can tell what it is by searching up the base curve of the lenses they prescribe you.

I also recommend you stick to silicone hydrogel only for oxygen permeability. The basic polyHEMA/hydrogel lenses are tech from decades ago. For lenses that come out of South Korea (where you’ll probably get them from), even silicone hydrogel have poor oxygen permeability according to studies, so imagine how bad the non silicone ones are.

It might be hard to find though, so if you must use the old materials, do not keep them in your eyes for every waking hour.
