    Laws that aren’t intended to be actually enforced, but serve as cover for a search or whatever other cop activity. Seat belt, drug, and helmet laws for example. I don’t think it’s even about tickets it’s just reason to pull you over and brow beat you for a while.

    You’re telling me the state that doesn’t give a fuck if I die from gesticulates generally around suddenly cares whether I make a personal decision about my own safety?

    This is coming from someone who wears his seat belt 100% of the time and gets car sick if I don’t, who has been ticketed for not wearing one even though I was. meow-tableflip













  • It’s pretty standard. I take some medium to firm tofu and crumble it up in a hot, dry, well seasoned cast iron pan and dry it for just a moment, then I add black salt (special salt that tastes like eggs), a little nutritional yeast, and some turmeric for color, as well as black pepper, garlic and usually some smoked paprika. Then when it’s cooked a little bit I like to add a little corn starch slurry to mimic a runnier scrambled egg.

    I usually have mushrooms, spinach, diced tomatoes, maybe onions in there too!



  • Go order some nutritional yeast and use it to make vegan cheese. You can use it directly on things like you would use parmesan, or use it to make cheeses similar to nacho cheese, or mac and cheese. This is one of those things like MSG where all the snack food companies already know about it and are using it to great effect in the products you’re already eating.

    No animals are coming for you and you don’t have to eat them either.

    If you didn’t exist you wouldn’t have cared about not existing. It’s only once you have existed that you wish to continue doing so. It’s no use making up conscious beings that don’t exist and concerning yourself with what they might have wanted had they existed. It isn’t comparable to asking yourself “If there was a button I could push that would make me never have existed…”

    It would be possible, in theory, to have an ethical chicken egg, but by the time you jumped through all the hoops to manage that at any appreciable scale you will have realized why it makes more sense to simply not. For a start you would have to reverse hundreds of years of selective breeding so they’re comfortable and healthy and not laying eggs every 12 hours.

    Or you could have some of my kickass tofu scramble which totally looks and tastes the part. tofu-cool
