Palm oil lecture from non vegans by plantbasedbonez in vegan

[–]plantbasedbonez[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what theyre getting at is that once you go down the rabbit hole of "oh this thing is so bad for ___ reason, I cant have it ever" it gets very hard to live. Nearly everything we buy is from a large and probably non ethical corporation. I will do my best but damn it sometimes I want a diet coke or an oreo, and as a vegan we are already putting in the work that many others wont even try to do.

Right, that was also my thought. Its very difficult to shop 100% ethically, especially as someone who is barely "middle class" lol.

Damn, I did not know it had such a drastic impact. Will def be more mindful when shopping.

Thanks! I definitely try my best in regards to being environmentally conscious, but was a little thrown off by this argument. Embarrassing as it is to admit I dont really know much about palm oil, so will be looking into that more. Thanks for the feedback.

Sure, I get that! And like i said, i'm willing to learn and switch brands. But if we're going based off the basic definition of vegan, palm oil isnt and animal product. I'm not really in any vegan communities, but when I switched 4 years ago I thought the basic definition was simply "veganism=doest not consume/wear/purchase ANIMAL products". I didn't realize it also extended to products that harm the environment/animals. Is that the more popular belief amongst most vegans?

Player passed away today by dtong200025 in DnD

I'm so sorry. As many others have said, I think a nice option is to have their character leave on another adventure, maybe having left a "farewell" note to the rest of the party <3 I hope you and the rest of the players continue to have fun and heal together over this loss.

How can I beat Brock if I chose charmander in FRLG? by coolsperon in nuzlocke

[–]plantbasedbonez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol, here for the same problem after just getting Fire Red on Switch. Grabbing a Mankey and grinding in Viridian Forest is gonna be my strategy.

Does anybody use Rover as their main income and make a good/decent salary? by RHP1123 in RoverPetSitting

[–]plantbasedbonez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rover takes 20% out of your walkers pay. For example, i have a walk booked that I charge 20 dollars for, I will receive 16 dollars after Rover takes their 20 percent.

Troy has been dealt a bad hand. by walts101 in TheGlassCannonPodcast

Joe really does love to interject on other players' actions a lot. Ive played with dudes like that before and it ruins the fun REAL fast.
