I gave up flying a while ago, so I guess I’ll keep that up.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Flying. I don’t like that shit anyway.

i’ve been trying to have less meals with meat. we had delicious butternut squash curry that was flavorful and filling over rice, and i was super proud of it.

then my husband made chicken to put in all the leftovers… 🤦🏻‍♀️

can’t people just fly less private jets please?

I think I'd schedule a movie night for Earthlings every time he did some asshole move like that

Man, fuck flying.

Been vegan for 3 years now. I lost my superpowers once when a restaurant gave me cheese when I asked for none. I wasn't going to waste food.

Flying sucks ass. So, I'll give up both?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

If forced to choose, I'd give up flying. As I'm scared of it anyway, that makes the most sense. :)

That said, I think that if we all just did less of those things, it would be good too. Take more vacations near home. Eat meat only a few times a week. That sort of thing.

Is it even possible to give up flying?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ve never flown in my life and I’m doing okay.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I have neither.

Already more or less against meat and eat seldom. Regardless, cannot give up flying or I'll never see my home country nor family again save for a long af boat ride. 🤷‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Meat probably. I need to travel for work.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I eat probably 21 meat meals a week. I still choose meat though. Definitely need some ideas for veg recipes. My favorite veg meal I’ve made is shakshouka, but nearly everything else always falls a little flat. What are some of your guys’ favorite recipes?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I love shakshouka with aubergine that shit's great. Anyway, vegan here and most of the stuff i eat is indian food (a lot of that stuff is vegan or at least vegetarian by default), middle eastern food with baba ganoush/hummus/falafel or east asian foods with tofu or tempeh. I find that just veganizing meatdishes take a bit of skill and fantasy for it not to just become a lackluster version of the thing you already like and are used to.
