I see a lot of people at least joking about going vegan lately. I’ve been vegan for roughly… ah, I want to say 4 years now? I lost track awhile ago. It was around the time the wreckers came to Hexbear and convinced a bunch of us to watch Dominion (highly recommend doing so btw, it’s free online).

ANYWAYS, if you’re interested in more than just shitposts and are seriously interested in veganism I was thinking I could help answer any questions you have. Comment here or send me a DM if you’re blush shy. shy This comm has limits on what we can talk about btw, such as diet. And I think the whole website has restrictions on recommending specific brands of food? So DM for questions like that, thanks.

    animal products

    What is a good way to deal with clothing/furniture that contain animal products? I have this dilemma where I hate throwing away anything that’s still usable but also I feel gross anytime I wear something made from dead animals, I think it’s morally wrong and it normalises killing animals for the making of products. I’m pretty sure the answer is to just throw it away and never buy any animal products again and I think I need some encouragement to actually do that (the throwing away part, I stopped buying such things a while ago).

      Donate it to a trustworthy local charity rather than throw it away. The damage is done with produced items, so there’s no need to add to a landfill if someone else in need could get use out of it.
