I remember when I left the platform about ten years ago I actually had to call the company to finalize the deletion of my account, the process was so convoluted. I had a client who was also trying to leave, he literally contracted me to handle the account removal for him after I told him about my own ordeal. Hopefully it’s at least automated today.

For me the replacement depends on the culinary use it replaces.

For scrambles: Brick of extra firm tofu, sliced and crumbled to scrambled egg texture. Mix in 1tsp turmeric, 1tsp black pepper, optional 1tsp garlic powder. Heat up in a pan stirring occasionally, and the turmeric turns it yellow. Once cooked add the secret ingredient: Black salt / kala namak, a salt with a strong sulfur taste (Do this at the end as heat destroys that taste).

For fried: A mung bean-based liquid mix like Just Egg. If you don’t want to pay the vegan tax for a bottle of Just it’s easy and cheap to diy in the kitchen, lots of recipes out there.

For baking: A tapioca and starch-based mix like Bob’s Red Mill egg replacer.

I used to have apparently atrocious credit due to delaying payments on my student loans for years. But with proof of income it didn’t stop me from getting apartments in NYC. In the last place I asked the broker what my credit score was and while he wasn’t at liberty to tell me he did say “Not good. But it’s all student debt related which we don’t consider relevant”. Still seems weird to me today but I guess landlords often don’t consider student debt to be a reflection of a tenant’s ability to pay rent. Probably because most people prioritize paying for shelter over paying for the classes in their past.

WTF is Reddit?

Seriously though get off that site, it’s not good for you.

…Dad? Haha I’m about to hit 40 and shitcoins are my brainy boomer dad’s hobby.

Only if you act like one. You’ve got a great body, just make sure your mind and actions match! Learn to love yourself first, and others will follow.

They need an appropriate array of vitamins, nutrients, and calories to stay alive. The way they do this naturally is to eat meat, but it’s not the meat specifically that they need.

Taurine and arginine are amino acids, building blocks for proteins, not proteins themselves. Animo acids are quite ubiquitous across life, not specific to any one type of life. eg Plants contain both taurine and arginine.

meat proteins

Proteins are chains of amino acids. There are probably proteins specific to animal muscle, but misguided legislation notwithstanding it’s the amino acids that are nutritionally required, not any specific protein configuration of those animos, and you can get those from a massive array of non-animal sources.

Before I was vegan I had a girlfriend who wanted an “emotional support cat”. I was uncomfortable with the idea and resisted for a while but eventually we got a rescue cat. Then we broke up and I kept the cat. I love her and she’s sleeping in her bed next to me on my desk as I type this. I’m one of probably hundreds of likely scenarios where a vegan ends up with a pet despite agreement with the ethical issues.

You know what’s really conservative and “spooked”? Inturpretting a movement to respect the gender identity of other people as an attempt to control their speech.

Boioioiooioioioioiooioioinnnnnnggggg

Lol I edited my reply to add mention of the odd racial qualifiers just as you wrote the same. Microblog format seems to encourage weird and inaccurate racial group roundup phrases like that. Black american men absolutely do this shit too.

The phrases (And the totally unnecessary racial qualifiers) may be but I’m pretty sure men are conditioned to suppress their emotions anywhere there’s patriarchy, which is most places these days.

Aren’t we all?

The browser project dedicated to open web standards steered by a compromised non-profit or the browser project dedicated to undermining the traditional web browsing experience steered by the largest advertising company on Earth … Let me think …

I don’t think they read Lemmy.

Fair I have zero experience owning a boat. However, if I bought a boat for $10K and my annual upkeep was only $1K I’d certainly be thrilled.

NYTimes is the quintessential epitome of the sort of middling liberal apologetics that funnel a society toward fascism. They aren’t friends, they’re a mouthpiece for money.

“Genius kid”? I really dislike the unnecessary and unqualified exoticization. He’s a smart kid, with access to time and resources. The sort of time and resources that any kid - Any person, really - With an interest should have access to. We’d have a lot more “geniuses” in the world if that were the case.
