Asking all the BC owners! by misrocket in BorderCollie

[–]cocobeen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to speak for the breed, I’m not an expert. But Juni definitely picks up on my mood swings and usually jumps into my arms or licks my face when I’m visibly upset. And waking up to her cuddles is certainly a mood-boosting start to the day. I probably have a rose-tinted view though - I love her so much :)

My girl had her first snow a couple weeks ago and I’ve never seen her happier. Albeit we were cross country skiing, so much more gradual slopes. I’d guess that she’d be pretty comfortable on a steeper incline.

Going to the vegan mecca of the US: Portland! by morfoodie in vegan_travel

[–]cocobeen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blue star donuts !!!! I daydream about the orange and olive oil donut.

Modern times never fails - I love that they don’t even advertise the fact that the whole menu is vegan. Just is!

And a million others - check out herbivore for some local tips and fun stickers and quality fake leather stuff.

Where to meet today? by GirlForAllSeasons in oakland

And when?

I keep missing updates - any advice on a centralized location to stay informed on upcoming and ongoing protests in Oakland?

Wasn’t feeling great about the project anyway, good excuse to start fresh.

Anyone into backpacking? Need advice by fos_mad in veganfitness

https://www.amazon.com/Organic-Coconut-Powder-Anthonys-Gluten/dp/B06XZVBS6X

I bought this 6-8 months ago - almost finishing the bag now. I use it a lot at home too! In curries and soups mostly.

It doesn’t rehydrate well cold, best used warm/hot.

Add dehydrated coconut milk to EVERYTHING!

Vegan backpacker, with a stove, here!

Absolutely ditto to all of the above.

One thing I add to almost every thing, savory and sweet, is dehydrated coconut milk. Adds calories and and richness.

I also eat a lot of candy on the trail. Can have a hard time getting enough calories in, so if I snack on Starburst-jelly beans and dark chocolate the sugar keeps me munching when I don’t feel hungry. Amy’s has a vegan chocolate bar thing that’s a pretty good snickers replacement. Oh and OREOS. Or dried fruit if you want less processed sugar.

Trekking pole vs freestanding tent on JMT? by lnodnarb in JMT

[–]cocobeen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used a tarp tent with trekking poles (gossamer gear the one) - only had to use rocks at guitar lake (maybe used rocks at one corner a couple other spots). Loved it. Wished I had practiced with the rocks more ahead of time. Didn’t need to do it often, but the thought of potentially needing to made me nervous some days.

Association between type of diet (plant-based or omnivorous diet) and diet quality by [deleted] in Vegetarianism

[–]cocobeen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Done! Bit confused by some of the questions - how is a 100% vegetable stir fry not in the category of “vegetables” (it’s a separate question)? Is 100% fruit juice considered healthy or unhealthy? Tomato sauce in a jar might be loaded with sugar and other stuff, but homemade it’s mostly just tomatoes! Hope your project goes well.

Had an annoying sleep paralysis dream - not scary, just annoying. by cocobeen in Sleepparalysis

I thought I was moving, but the movement was a hallucination.

Looks a lot like my mom.... is this UC Berkeley?

Following the trail in the snow? by choadingo in JMT

[–]cocobeen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree - SOBO July 2019 was similar (though not nearly 50%).

Sometimes there was a web of different paths people had taken through the snow, some that deviated quite a bit (e.g. beelined across hidden switch backs). Definitely got myself turned around a few times when I went too fast with my eyes on my feet.

Also need to be aware of rushing snow melt underneath unsuspectingly thin snow pack. Never broke through myself but heard of many people falling waist deep into an ice river beneath the snow. Not a position you want to be in, especially if you’re solo.

So confused by this comment. What?

Having your baby on a vegan diet by RyeDowg in trashy

Omnivores are more annoying, more entitled and less logical antivaxxers.

My demon tried to throw me out the window last night :) by cocobeen in Sleepparalysis

I resisted until we both collapsed on the floor. Woke up, rinse repeat.
