I'll give that a shot! The weather is cooling down and I've been meaning to be out in the world without my headphones much.

Thank you. I think I fixate on doing things incorrectly a lot when that kind of thinking is counterproductive for meditation.

I'm kinda burnt out this week, but I've been getting decent insight in therapy. I've been more honest about my limits and boundaries and I can see myself carving out time to address my needs and plan my goals for the future.
Trying to stay sober throughout, but weed has been a means of escaping emotional pain. So I'm trying to push myself through and rest when I can.
He doesn't know anything, just stop!
I think it's legit. The framing is still centered on her.
Babe, you haven't touched your rock. Would you like me to cut it up for you?
Lol I thought it was dunking on bitcoin.
Have you stopped and considered that some people prefer to look like clowns?
That makes a lot of sense. It's not about what I can view as acceptable consumption. It's about the actual material harm present.
I think I've been getting caught up on abstract hypotheticals when yeah some people just like the taste and texture of meat. I've got to accept that as a fact and not as a moral failing to correct.
I hate that every now and then I crave meat. I haven't eaten any in years, and I don't think I will again at this point. I didn't mean to start unpacking those feelings now, but I'm seeing it better after this conversation.
Your version of the future makes sense too. At As we improve the flavor and texture of nuggets, they may start to resemble meat in certain ways. They don't somehow become more or less ethical if the material harm to animals remains the same.
Seriously thank you for carrying this conversation with me. I'm trying to be a better vegan and this definitely helps.
And don't get me wrong, I love imitation meat and dairy products.
I've never felt like I missed real butter over oat butter, but I feel like the implied default that comes with the label of 'real' gets conflated with 'superior'
I do worldbuilding too. I don't necessarily find the healing I've come to expect from meditation, but that could just be a me thing. I keep trying to do a chill beach or vacation episode but I crave magic and cool swords.
