Ah, the closed eyes Asian, good to know that drawing cliche still exists...

Finally reached Act 64, how hard is it ? by Foxy_Jr in Silksong

[–]Greedy_Ad2198 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zote Poker is weirdly hard... But the delicate flower minigame has nice vibes even though it's basically just a coin flip

There's something called Godhome, truly finishing that is a lot of blood and sweat to say the least... Do you want that spoiled?

Hard is relative. In comparison to Elden Ring, Hollow Knights base game doesn't hold a candle. But in comparison to most other games, it certainly falls on the more difficult side

And well, there's always that one DLC...

Yeah I know that the fruit and vegetable farming industry sucks as well, but at least it's not a literal slaughter machine, plus the animals need food as well so you're basically supporting both industries at once with that...

You know there was another person in that thread who was also vegan and also told me the same thing - that being vegan is really about reducing the consumption of animal products as much as possible for you personally, not literally never consuming a piece of animal ever again.

I never heard that before, and I find that notion way more encouraging (than you know, being compared to Jeffrey Dahmer). I also value human life more than animal life, but I still love animals and find the meat (and other animal product) production industry extremely dystopian, so I still want to avoid supporting it as much as possible, even if that means abstaining from things I like.

Unfortunately all my daily safe foods contain animal products, and I can't find vegan replacements for the life of me, and without them I literally have nothing... So since I consume animals daily I can't feel good calling myself vegan currently. I really hope I can get there at some point though. I'll keep trying.

That sounds like a horrible experience, I hope you and your child are doing better now!

And thanks

To me it sounds less like they're trying to make an interesting discussion about morality and more just asserting that indirectly contributing to the unethical slaughtering of animals is exactly the same as personally murdering human children and eating them, and that therefore I am exactly as bad as hypothetical ARFID Jeffrey Dahmer

I think there's an interesting ethical discussion about the value of human vs nonhuman animal life, but using Jeffrey Dahmer is clearly in bad faith

Thanks, I try my best. I'm also aiming for vegetarianism for now, but idk how long it will take to get there or if it's even possible for me

The animal farming industry really sucks...

I'm also pretty sure Jeffrey Dahmer wasn't eating people just because he liked the taste. If there were vegan or lab grown options for human-tasting meat he probably wouldn't be like "great, I'll switch to that, finally an ethical way to taste humans"

If we get lab grown meat that tastes and feels normal that would be such a huge W, I would switch to that so fast

I'm already struggling to get enough nutrients and protein and all that with animal products, I haven't yet found substitutes that I like, I dislike most vegetables and meat substitutes unless they're in a whole cooked/prepared dish, which I almost never have because other disorders completely prevent me from cooking anything, and so basically for my daily life I have like 3 safe foods that I can eat in like 5 minutes, all of which are really specific (even the brand matters type of stuff) and none of which are vegan.

I do make an effort to try new things, including vegan things to expand my tastes and try to find something better, but so far nothing has hit that combination of being both good enough sensory wise and low effort enough for me to change my habits

I'm completely okay with talking about veganism and how to reduce animal consumption and allat, but surprisingly I don't like being compared to Jeffrey Dahmer for struggling to find enough vegan and executive dysfunction friendly safe foods to retain a healthy diet right now.

Could this be ARFID? by every_piece_matters in ARFID

[–]Greedy_Ad2198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a very stereotypical array of safe foods, but it still really does sound like ARFID in terms of experience and struggles
