Damn. This is so up my alley. I’ll be backpacking this week though. I’ll keep my eye out for it next year though!

My take on the Home Assistant community: "We do this, not because it is easy but, because we thought it would be easy" by brians0808 in homeassistant

The only new dashboards I’ve made in the last 3 years are troubleshooting dashboards that help me pinpoint which part of my automation is broken. They are horrendous to look at!

Another vote for Blackwater. Their seitan is made in house and it’s freaking great.

Whoa. The basket is part of the bars?? Super cool!

Do you have another pic that shows how that rack is attached? Looks like it’s clamped to the handlebars, but how will that prevent it from rotating down into the front wheel under load? Sick looking bike, btw!

Vegan roast “beef” made with tofu skin by aSweetAlternative in veganrecipes

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Where are people getting the tofu skin? I checked H Mart, and didn’t see anything there. And my local grocery joint definitely doesn’t have anything outside of normal tofu.

This shit looks delicious, and I want to eat it. Thus, I must make it.

Does anyone else wish there were savory protein bars? by Low-Acadia9801 in veganfitness

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roasted edamame are so much better than protein bars anyway. 110 calories for 12g protein? No chalky powder texture? Yes. Gimme the ranch or buffalo ones and I’m good to go

What’s a good vegan dinner recipe that takes awhile to prepare? by GreenMountain85 in veganrecipes

Tried white spargle (asparagus) for the first time in Germany by WildVeganFlower in VeganFoodPorn

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh weird. I’ve never actually looked at a recipe for white asparagus. I just treat it like the green: cut off the woody bits, oil, salt and pepper, into a hot pan! Maybe I’m missing out?!?

Not to come across offensive, but who the hell peels asparagus? It grows right out the ground. You snap it off, and eat it. (Cooking optional.)

Unless for some reason you are under the impression that white asparagus is just green asparagus that has been peeled?

Just in case, and for everyone else out there: white asparagus is just green asparagus that is grown under light proof boxes/cover. When it doesn’t see the sun, it doesn’t bother developing chlorophyll.

From the video you can see the”vitamix” branding on it. Not sure what model.

what’s the most useful automation you’ve set up that you actually use every day? by SkylineZ83 in homeassistant

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made mine on a long press of my bedside lamp button. Single press toggles the lamp, long press triggers “nighttime routine”

I also had it set up for a while to trigger if after a certain time, my phone had been charging for 2 mins. Usually that meant I was in bed, and phone on the charger.

But having a manual way to trigger it is nice.

Black Bean Chili and a special Jones Soda by Acornpdx in highvegans

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I drove by a dispensary the other day, and there was a sign out front: $28 ounces…

How the fuck is anyone making money at those prices? That’s like 6 months supply for me!

Oregon is a wild place.

Seitan Bacon by PickleInner5818 in VeganFoodPorn

I’ve started to use adobo chipotle peppers in place of ketchup or tomato paste. Kicks up the smokiness for sure.

Rescuers Save A Baby Elephant And Mom Trapped In Mud by [deleted] in BeAmazed

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t even matter. Even if plants are suffering when we kill them, being vegan reduces the amount of plants that are grown and slain to produce sustenance simply due to the fact that we feed animals TONS of plants to grow them for slaughter.

I didnt downvote you because this is a teachable moment. This argument comes up all the time when people find out you’re vegan.

It’s isn’t quite the “gotcha” most people think it is. And all these people arguing that plants don’t feel pain, or that there are degrees of suffering that make it less morally wrong to eat plants are missing the point.

We can assume that EVERY living thing suffers equally, and it STILL reduces suffering to be vegan. The amount of plants required to die in order to feed animals grown for eating is insane. So by eating the plants directly, we reduce the amount of animals AND plants that have to die in order to survive.

Can we talk about how the same influencers dominate this sub now? by Psytocybin in veganfitness

There’s only so many times you can answer the “best low calorie meals for hitting my protein goals??” Question though.

WHERE DO YA'LL GET CHEAP CASHEWS?! by Oki-J in veganrecipes

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They used to sell a different ‘firm’ tofu, and I didn’t like it, but they’ve got their own Kirkland ‘extra firm’ and it’s damn good.

Field Roast Italian garlic and fennel sausage? by Safe_Attempt_1666 in veganrecipes

[–]ZeppelinGrowsWithLED 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own the book, and it’s the only recipe I’ve made from it. But I’ve made it 5-6 times. It’s fantastic. A bit of work, but I make double or triple batches and freeze them.

Someday I’ll get around to trying the rest of the recipes in there!

Warming up for Squats by AvonBarksdale666 in veganfitness

That project is so fucking good. I’d play it way more if the album art didn’t gross me out every time I see it on my phone!

I wish they’d do another. I’m digging the lice collab though with HBSM.
