*please note i deeply value and respect the vegan movement. i am just critical of how humorously it precipitates in online spaces, particularly this one. :)

    I can’t handle not wanting to kill myself, let alone a giant change in diet. What’s this, another way in which my existence is detrimental to others? Add it to the fucking pile, it’ll be enough to get me to kms eventually.

      Look I’ve got terrible depression and chronic nerve pain. Idk what to tell you, hurting isn’t a good reason to hurt others.

      Personally I tend to feel better about myself when I’m doing good, I think that’s pretty common. It’s not so difficult of a change, if you learn like 5 solid lentil/bean based meals you can make easily (such as stews you can just throw in a pot) then you can just rotate through those as you learn.

      Something like a chilli non carne, Moroccan chickpea stew, couple of dhals, and a pearl barley stew with lentils. I can dump some of what I use to avoid starvation when brushing my teeth is a 2 hour battle if you like?
