I was so confused by this title because I kept reading it as pro hate towards Israel lol

This isn’t minimal publicity, minimal publicity is what they got when they directly targeted fossil fuels by blocking the supply lines.

They do it because the stuff you’re asking for doesn’t work that well, but this does (that said they do still engage in those actions as far as I’m aware). Activism is about making noise, there aren’t many tools beyond that and they’ve worked for all sorts of issues in the past.

The point is that JSO doesn’t exist in a vacuum.

Yeah, appreciating the moment is the best wish ever.

Hell yeah!

Good luck and have fun!

I don’t have any written recipes I’m afraid, I’ve been making them up as I go.

I usually use that combination for a ramen base. I used dried shitake and soak them in a ton of water overnight in the fridge. The dried shitake are honestly kinda inedible even after being rehydrated so I don’t always use them afterwards. I should also soak Kombu but I keep forgetting to buy it.

If you mix that broth with the right amount of miso paste then you’ll get the amazing combination of msg and nucleotides that gives you some amazing flavours. Soy sauce helps too, some garlic, ginger and sesame oil make it perfect.

Good luck working out ratios because I just guess everytime based on the size of my bowls 😅

That’s certainly the hope, but I don’t think that’s the way it’s going so far. The little I’ve read about it suggests it’s going to use a considerable amount of energy, there’s probably going to be a lot of research on the environmental impact. Other considerations include water usage, raw materials and waste, and at this stage it’s too early to say what those are going to be like.

I’m honestly not keen on just hoping it’ll work out, especially when capitalism is involved. It’ll be great if it does and I’m legitimately hoping for that, but there isn’t a great track record with this kind of stuff. Especially with the meat industry basically funding laws to stop it from being available in the first place.

I guess I’m worried about it being another failed magic bullet, and I’m just sitting here completely fine without it.

Fake meat has more of an appeal to me than lab grown meat, or it used to. It was kinda interesting when they were unique flavours marketed as alternatives rather than accurate immitations.

Honestly the food science is one of my favourite things about being vegan, I can cook way more interesting meals than I could as a carnist because I’d just use meat as the main flavour which works but it’s kinda lazy. Let me make something with a little miso and shitake broth and you’ll be in love

It’s a lot of effort to solve an issue that’s already solved by being vegan so eh, I’m pretty indifferent to it at least at face value. If it can compete with a vegan diet in terms of climate and ecosystem impact then I’ll support it but I’ve no interest in it personally. I don’t really have any justification for not being interested, I’m just not.

I’d be much more interested in seeing artificial cheese made from proteins created by yeast or bacteria tbh.

Yes. Almost no one smokes in Australia because of them

Well, they are doing both

On second thought, maybe they aren’t a payphone if they’re free 🤔

Yeah they’re everywhere in my city still, they’ve even made them all free

Tongue clicks are absurdly useful. In my family we use then to communicate over long distances and to find each other in big crowds

Oh yeah, I didn’t even realise until you said it but I absolutely do that all the time

Not all of us get downvotes, I see them pretty much daily…

“Are you sure you’re not making it up”

The medical system is not kind, my diagnosis was all of 5 minutes and almost definitely wrong. That was after fighting with my GP to get a referral to the right specialist…

I reckon the worst part of a chronic illness is when you don’t realise it’s abnormal, I just assumed everyone else was just as tired and sore as me.

It’s gotta be something from Songs in the Key of Z

I’m living with a similar condition and have been through many of the same experiences with weeks of pain and no sleep. While I’m extremely lucky in that my pain usually responds fairly well to medication, I absolutely understand how you feel.

That’s exactly my point.

Hate shit people, don’t hate people who belong to a demographic. There are lots of awesome boomers.
