Some of my fondest childhood memories as a kid are lounging around in a wave pool or lazy river with my folks. Last time I went, Schlitterbaun outside San Antonio had managed to make a lazy river wave pool that a bunch of great water slides empty out into, and that place would have been heaven for me as a kid.

i watched a frat boy vomit into the schlitterbaun lazy river it was cool to watch people scurry outta there

I’ve had seitan a few times and every time I found it between unpleasant and downright gross. I hear it all depends on how you make it. So good for you having some good seitan.

The only time I had seitan was a faux BBQ tritip sandwhich with cole slaw on it and I thought it was delicious.

So the DC United soccer club signed this English footballer named Wayne Rooney and every morning when I watch the local news they're showing game highlights where he's footballing amazingly well.

Is he like a good player or something?

It was the Upton Natural's Chorizo flavor, which really ended up being closer to taco seasoning than any chorizo.

I fried it up in a pan and made a flatbread with some hot sauce, cheese.

Yes, he's a good player, and DCU have been terrible and needed a good striker, which he is fulfilling. That we've been winning a bit with him is very good.

I made a pretty gosh darn good chorizo using TVP (which is basically a Soy protein).

I tried making it with tofu using the freezing trick but the texture just wasn't right.

I was thinking about the Dave situation and it got me thinking of the WWE office and how there must be a ton of toxic masculinity in that from all the stories over the years. And then it made me wonder if there are examples of positive masculinity and I think I thought of a couple:

I feel very manly when I can pick up my kids and they can climb all over me. I work out to stay strong enough as they grow haha.
I also feel manly when I can fix something that wasn't working like a ceiling fan or a door lock.

That’s seitan. Tempeh looks like little cobblestone sidewalks (and is also very good)

I tried vegetarianism for awhile a few years back just out of curiousity. I learned something I already knew, which is that I loving love mushrooms :hellyeah:

I’m also vegetarian. I’m not vegan but I do employ a lot of vegan staples in my diet (soy milk/oat milk, cashew creams, etc). I don’t eat eggs. The only reason I’m not completely vegan is I love cheese too much (though I eat significantly less of it than I used to.)

Overall I’m pleased with my decision. I don’t miss meat (though I do sing “It’s so hard to say goodbye” to pan seared wild salmon) and my latest physical was good. (The sobriety has paid off on that front too.)

Also if you’re meatless:

It’s important to know which non-animal foods are complete proteins.

Tofu/soybeans/edamame are complete proteins
Quinoa is a complete protein
Buckwheat (like the kind found in soba noodles) is a complete protein

Also, certain food combos are complete proteins, such as hummus and pita.

It looks like this has been pretty roundly debunked. As I understand it we also need far less protein than most people think we do. Vegetarian diets are far easier once you start to view protein as just a part of the dish rather than as the centrepiece.

I still use milk products and eggs. Free range eggs make me feel better about that end of things, but I have yet to find a suitable way to get remotely ethical milk.

I love eggs but honestly, if I may be candid for a minute, the only two reasons I gave up eggs:

1) I want to avoid butter since it’s bad for you. And frankly butter and eggs are a perfect marriage. People that use oil to fry eggs are dirty capitalists.

2) I was sick of loving them up! Sometimes I would NAIL an over easy egg. Sometimes I would PERFECTLY flip an omelette. But most of the time they’d be hot tasty garbage.

So I didn’t give up eggs for health reasons but rather my own bruised ego.

Guys I'm so hosed up.

So I live at home with my parents (because of my disability mostly). I pay what's essentially rent every month to my Dad and it's not chump change. But my only real steady income right now is my disability checks because consulting work pays quite well but is not stable. I keep a budget for myself every month and never ever come anywhere close to running out of money or anything like that but I just feel like I'm not adulting right because my parents have conditioned me to feel like the only "right" way is a 9-5 job. There's a lot of reasons why that's not necessarily feasible for me, but I hate feeling worthless and like I don't deserve what I give myself because most of my advocacy work is volunteer. I just hate feeling like this. :(

Just had to get this off my chest.
