It’s been rough. But at my weakest moment, a voice in my head reminded me, “You can’t give in or internet communists will call you a cheesebreather.” I would like to specifically thank @Angel@hexbear.net as well as anyone else who I might have seen throwing it around for keeping me honest.

My friends did pick up breadsticks for me which helped because it’s basically the same kind of slop but without the cruelty.

I’m usually eating on my own where I never struggle with controlling my diet, but those social situations when it’s free and I’m the only vegan in the room can be super challenging. But I know if I’d made an exception I’d feel guilty later and it would make it harder to assert in the future. Now I really need to reward myself and splurge on like the best vegan pizza I can find.

    What grinds my gears too is vegsn slop is fucking cheap. We also wanna eat trash! I’m not at all here for my own health, I know for a fact vegans are capable of putting some liquor back and chomping down a million dumplings, stop giving me fucking rice bowls I can make from.what I have at home and make a tofu taquito platter.

        A co worker was told by an ER doctor that he’s essentially speed running cancer ans he doesn’t fuck around half as hard as I do. He’s 10 years older and I fucked around twice as hard as I do now when I have his age and am now feeling doomed. I have never ever been in this for myself and it’s usually the first assumption I need to correct. Although really, my diet is pretty great, it’s the booze and cigarettes that are the problem
