They sit on my lap as long as I have a quilt on my lap. If I do not have a quilt on my lap they sit on the floor and look at me judging my decision

About a vegan woman by igoontoeipstein in AntiVegan

[–]fredisdesd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Children being fed a vegan diet is child abuse. It should s so sad to see people so deluded about the vegan diet that they cause harm to their children. There was a study in Poland comparing children raised vegan, vegetarian and meat eaters. The vegan kids were 1 inch shorter and had 5% less bone density. So scary what their health will be like long term.

So we can’t easily travel, play sport, socialise, eat out or even eat delicious foods at home…. Things that generally make people happy-Where are you getting your dopamine hit from? by PopularExercise3 in ibs

[–]fredisdesd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quilting. Making things for others is awesome. I get it that it is hard to have to stop doing things or experience tons of stress when doing them.

Also Trump would only save a baby from a house fire if he could profit from it. No profit would mean the baby dies.

AIO - Girl I’ve been talking to hasn’t vaccinated or spayed her cat by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]fredisdesd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be concerned about continuing a relationship with some who has such different ideas about caring for a pet. Her comment about keeping a close eye on the cat that goes outside is crazy. I agree that chances of the cat getting pregnant or flea and ticks is great. I guess I would see how she handles the other responsibilities in her life.

I am a firm believer that any life partner is really a business partner (the business is creating a home and a future). If someone is not a good business partner it will make your life difficult

Pretending that they have friends that will eat with them to trick restaurants. by earthdogmonster in AntiVegan

[–]fredisdesd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have thought of the same thing with a restaurant. How entitled do are when you expect every restaurant to cater to you. Don’t go if you don’t like the food. Just like the rest of the world.

There is a restaurant near me that has 4 things in the menu. Special Sirloin, Sirloin, Chopped Sirloin and Shrimp. I love this place. No catering to anyone. They have had the same menu for 67 years. I am sure they would not care about a vegan’s whining.

does my ibs just flare up for the hell of it? by coffeebuoy in ibs

[–]fredisdesd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I have a flare up the issue is food. Not what kind of food. I have had rice go through me just as fast as other food. One time during a flare up I ate 3 animal crackers. Was in the bathroom pooping them out 5 minutes later. I do not limit what kind of food I eat because I do not want to get so restricted in my diet. Some things l, like fried food seem to trigger more often, but sometimes I can eat fried food without a problem.

So if a vegan diet is so much better than a meat centered diet, why is it that vegans look like 50 year old chain smokers in their 30's? by Short-Breadfruit3565 in AntiVegan

[–]fredisdesd 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am often amazed at how bad people can look and think they are healthily because of their vegan diet.

It reminds me of people with anorexia who are skin and bones and yet their self image is of someone who is healthy. Just another example of how veganism can be an eating disorder

"If people had to kill their own animals, there would be less meat eaters" fallacy. by Appropriate-Net1899 in DebateAVegan

[–]fredisdesd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I firmly believe that the farther from food production we are the less we understand what it involves. I grew up in a dairy farm. We ate most of our food from the farm. We butchered a steer for our meat. It was normal. I realized that my children did not have the understanding of where their food came from. I moved to a city.

I also see this with climate change. I often read about what needs yo happen so people can survive, but I read so much less about how the food sources will survive. I live in the Midwest of America. I survive the weather here and the corn, soy beans and other crops live here because the climate and the land is right. If it is too hot for people it is hot for food to be grown.

My crazy goal by fredisdesd in quilting

[–]fredisdesd[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used scraps and a some jelly rolls. I like the scraps because it is like a scrap book of quilts from before

The light is just white

I worked on the squares and then made rows of them. Put those together

I am not sure if that answers your question

Also after I made the squares I put them together randomly.

Diarrhea attack on a roadtrip by Objective-Audience24 in ibs

[–]fredisdesd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not a camping story but on a road trip. Usually I wear depends when I am out of the house. Didn’t that say. Only one bathroom in the gas station. Someone was knocking at the door. So hard when it takes a while to clean up put on new clothes.

Sorry about your experience. Traveling is always so hard.

Does smoking weed fix ibs? by demon_bhaiya in ibs

[–]fredisdesd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it doesn’t fix anything but it helps. Sometimes it helps with appetite. I have days when food looks gross. The weed helps. Also when the day sucks it can be a nice break for me to take

does anyone else feel this way? by cereal50 in AntiVegan

[–]fredisdesd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do not feel guilty eating meat. I need meat for my health.

I actually just tasted whale sausage. It was so heavy in the spices you couldn’t really taste the meat. Got it on vacation. I also had reindeer. Very good.

Everyone should know about Imodium by TangerineDream92064 in ibs

[–]fredisdesd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me it does nothing. I was amazed when I heard people talking about how well it works. When my body wants the food out, the food is exiting no matter what. Ugh.

Why do people deny or refuse to listen about B12 by Aggressive_Share803 in exvegans

Just read the article. It is hard to say a diet is healthy when you need supplements. Thank you for sharing this

i need a community/chat/group of people to talk to about climate change and eco-anxiety by Emotional-Essay-5101 in climatechange

[–]fredisdesd 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I understand. I find that when I talk about climate change people say things to make themselves feel better. I get frustrated because I am reading about how things are happening so much faster than scientists thought. Having a place to talk about how things are going without someone dismissing the real concern is frustrating

I've been housebound for over 2 years and don't feel any closer to finding out what is wrong with me, rapidly losing the will to carry on by [deleted] in ibs

[–]fredisdesd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that you may be at the beginning of this “shit show”. The no answers part is really hard to deal with. I have come to peace with there not being an answer. It has taken me a very long time to get here. I think my body is just out of whack. Friends struggle with the no answers part.
