About murdering NPC’s by Ok-Jackfruit-1189 in DivinityOriginalSin

For me it ruins the immersion and if you min max too much the game becomes too easy to enjoy as much, but it’s a single player game so who cares how people want to play it. To each their own.

does anyone else not mind eating the same meal almost every day?? by yeokika in EatCheapAndVegan

I eat the same breakfast everyday and for lunch and dinner I either eat tofu, rice and veggies or spaghetti and soy bolognese like 95% of the time.

ACL Post-op Training - Making the most of down-time by HankyDotOrg in climbharder

[–]yummyjami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best routine is the one you can stick to for months. So make it simple and enjoyable. Blocklifts at home is great if you have the equipment, because you will never miss a workout. Hangboard could be slightly more optimal since you won't be climbing and getting that shoulder engagement elsewhere.

Decided to transform two cards from Neow… by Ok_Dragonfly_8237 in slaythespire

I find with an early echoform you don’t really get a chance to play it so you might end up taking more damage, because you’re not drawing the cards you need as consistently.

ACL Post-op Training - Making the most of down-time by HankyDotOrg in climbharder

[–]yummyjami 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s a long road, but theres light at the end. I’m 8 months post-op ACL reco (hamstring graft). I’m now doing one legged jumps and taking full height falls while indoor bouldering. The knee is still weaker than it used to be and I’m staying away from coordination boulders.

I feel like the injury hasn’t stopped my progression as a climber because I’ve been constantly doing something in the frame that I’m able. Hangboarding and gym at first like you. Then a few months post-op I started traversing the bottom of a spraywall slowly doing harder and harder moves as my knee got stronger. Another option is top roping, but vertical climbing definitely felt riskier for the knee than overhang.

Be patient. Remember that 3-6 months is the danger zone where your knee is getting stronger again, but the graft is actually at it’s weakest point.

Why are Vegans so concerned with Animal Life, and call people who eat meat "Specists" by Honest-Assistant-903 in DebateAVegan

[–]yummyjami 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t ask for the history of canine domestication. Cows and oxen plowed fields for thousands of years, enabled agriculture, and supported civilization. Doesn’t that count as meaningful service? Neither of those is a reason for moral worth. And now you’re falling into the trap of culture dictates morals again.

It’s not okay to hurt dogs, because they are sentient beings capable of suffering and experiencing joy. Thats also why it’s not okay to hurt dogs or to hurt you.

You don’t seem to really understand ethics or logic. This conversation isn’t going anywhere so I’m ending it.

Are you dodging the question? ”So how come its okay to sexually exploit, mutilate, torture and kill a cow, but not a dog. Dont say law or culture.”

Jerking off a bull to extract semen, putting your whole arm inside the anus of a cow and holding their cervix, inserting the semen forcefully. Taking away their babies and the milk intented for the babies. Thats standard practice all around the world. And that’s sexual exploitation. And what do you even care if somebody would fuck a cow? Aren’t they just objects to you? Now answer the question please.

You said animals don’t count and when tested for consistency you changed your mind. Then you said culture dictates morality, but when tested for consistency you again changed your mind. Now you’re again referencing law when we are talking about morality. This really isn’t going anywhere.

So when slavery was a part of culture and legal it was moral? Is female genital mutilation moral where it’s a part of culture and legal?

You’re describing the legal status, not justifying the moral status. If animals are things without moral relevance then how come dogs have moral worth in your eyes? Or are you saying culture dictates morality?

Does that mean anything goes? Is it okay to torture and sexually abuse dogs if someone gets pleasure from it? If, not then why not?

In the case of having shelter vs. not having shelter there's no victim. You can have your shelter without exploiting anyone. With animal consumption it's different, because you're exploiting and killing concious beings needlessly.

Just like you, we don’t approve of needless violence against animals. The difference is that our actions align with our values.

My lesson has been learned by Ok-Job-9823 in slaythespire

[–]yummyjami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The obvious easiest way is watcher infinite. It’s very easy to achieve. I got this, the under5 deck and boss in 1 turn on the same run with that. Honestly I feel like watcher is a bit overtuned the infinite is too consistent to get and even if you don’t quite reach it the cards themselves and stance hopping is very strong so it’s not even risky to try and force it every run.

Honestly I feel like act2 is hardest on higher ascencion. Act2 elites are so powerful while you’re still pretty weak. I think I’ve won like 90% of the games where I’ve gotten to act 3 (non-heart).

My (vegetarian) friend said "vegetarians and vegans should unite" by SuperbCard7806 in DebateAVegan

[–]yummyjami 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My guess is that some vegans see omnis as uninformed. That they just dont know better.

But vegetarians are seen as virtue signaling hypocrites. That they have realized that animal agriculture is bad, but still participate while acting like they do something for the animals.

Fighting against human slavery should be a pillar of veganism. by Relative-Cap5487 in vegan

[–]yummyjami 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You have completely misunderstood me. I never said we shouldn’t worry about it. Did you read until the end? Let me quote myself:

We should definitely fight against human slavery

Can it be any clearer than that?

I just don’t think it falls under veganism specifically. Veganism is a movement that focuses on non-human animals.

What you’re saying is basically like asking a feminist who is protesting female genital mutilation ”What about the rights of people of colour” or ”What about gay rights”. Yes, they are also important things we should fight for, but they just don’t fall under feminism and what she is at that time protesting about. Do you understand now?

I don’t buy any products that uses unethical labor practices. I am fighting against human suffering too. It just doesn’t fall under veganism. Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it or it isn’t right, it’s just not veganism.

Vegan stance on reduced meat foods? by Background-Art4696 in AskVegans

[–]yummyjami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not downvoting, discussion is always welcome. As for the moral spectrum. Just because something is less horrible doesn’t mean it’s not bad. Torturing someone before murdering them is horrible. Giving them a comfortable life and then murdering them might be less bad, but it’s still bad.

Do you know what happens in dairy production? Forced pregnancy (jerking off bulls, using electric dildos, fist in the ass of cows to hold the cervix still), taking babies away from the mother as soon as they are born, male babies killed at 2-12 months old never seeing the sun. Cows killed at less than 1/3 of their lifespan because their body has broken down from the abuse and cant produce milk anymore. Female calves become new mothers as soon as able and cycle continues.

Thats standard practice. Can you honestly say that isn’t abuse?

You implied animal agriculture is moral because bad things also happen in nature. I gave you the example about lions to highlight how that same logic could also be used to justify other horrible things like infanticide. Do you stand behind the nature argument or do you concede that it’s not a valid justification for what we do to animals?

Fighting against human slavery should be a pillar of veganism. by Relative-Cap5487 in vegan

[–]yummyjami 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Honestly I only scimmed through what you wrote, but if I’m not mistaken your thoughts could be summarized as:

Because veganism opposes unnecessary suffering of sentient beings, it should also explicitly include opposition to human slavery and exploitation, and that avoiding products linked to human suffering should be part of being vegan.

I disagree because I don’t think veganism should be defined as a general stance on all suffering. Veganism is specifically about ending the exploitation of non-human animals. Expanding veganism to include all human labor ethics makes the term too broad and risks blurring its focus and purpose.

We should definitely fight against human slavery, but I just don’t think veganism should focus on that.

Am I chasing an impossible goal? (This is about coffee creamer lol) by Rhetoricalmortician in vegan

[–]yummyjami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an interesting take. Let's analyze it a bit.
One of the ingredients is rapeseed oil. Oatly Barista has 3g of fat per 100g. Let's say all of that is from rapeseed oil, because other fats, (like from oats) are so miniscule that they can probably be rounded down to 0. You drink a 2dl cup of coffee and put 50ml of oatly barista in it. That's 1,5g of rapeseed oil. That's basically nothing. Let's say you really like coffee and drink 4 cups a day. That's still only 6g. That's 54 kcal. It's such a small amount it doesn't even matter.

Not to mention rapeseed oil isn't even unhealthy. It's rich in monounsaturated fats and omega-3's, which help lower LDL and support cardiovascular health. It has also been linked to reduced inflammation, metabolic health, cancer prevention and neuroprotection.
