youtube channel that has a "team of writers" but still goes like "umm soy bad cuz so much defosteration in the amazon :)" as if they made at most 1 google search and looked at the preview of the first result.
its embarrassing.
another youtube channel with 1m+ subscribers talking about wool and acrylic and cotton fiber and going like "cotton needs a lot of water", while not saying a word about how much water all these sheep in australia need.
its embarrassing.
going vegan is like realizing 99% of people have bought into this misinformation and even if you say anything theyll just think you are biased, emotional, unreasonable and, gasp, classist/racist/ableist.
hbomberguy do a video on the animal exploitation industries, please.

Harnessing the Power of Calcium: Exploring Its Benefits and Plant-Based Sources
Calcium is an essential mineral that plays a vital role in maintaining overall health and well-being. While many associate calcium with dairy products, there are numerous plant-based sources that provide this crucial nutrient. In this blog post, we will delve into the benefits of calcium for the human body and explore some of the best plant-based sources to incorporate into your diet.
The Importance of Calcium:
Calcium is widely recognized for its role in building and maintaining strong bones and teeth. However, its benefits extend far beyond skeletal health. Calcium is also involved in muscle contractions, nerve function, blood clotting, and the regulation of enzyme activity. It is particularly crucial during childhood and adolescence when bones are growing, as well as during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Additionally, adequate calcium intake throughout life may reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis, a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones. Furthermore, research suggests that calcium may play a role in managing blood pressure and reducing the risk of colorectal cancer.
Plant-Based Sources of Calcium:
For individuals who follow a plant-based or dairy-free diet, it's important to be aware of alternative sources of calcium. Here are some of the best plant-based sources to consider:
1. Leafy Greens:
Dark, leafy greens such as kale, collard greens, turnip greens, and spinach are excellent sources of calcium. These nutrient-packed vegetables not only offer calcium but also provide other essential vitamins and minerals.
2. Almonds:
Almonds are a versatile and nutritious snack that contains a considerable amount of calcium. Additionally, they offer healthy fats, protein, and fiber, making them a valuable addition to your diet.
3. Sesame Seeds:
Sesame seeds, commonly used in various cuisines, are a rich source of calcium. They can be sprinkled on salads, added to baked goods, or used in homemade granola for an extra calcium boost.
4. Tofu and Tempeh:
Tofu and tempeh, both derived from soybeans, are excellent plant-based sources of calcium. These versatile protein sources are widely used in vegetarian and vegan cooking and can be incorporated into a variety of dishes.
5. Fortified Plant-Based Milk Alternatives:
Many plant-based milk alternatives, such as almond milk, soy milk, and oat milk, are fortified with calcium to provide a comparable amount to dairy milk. Be sure to check the labels to ensure adequate calcium content.
6. Chia Seeds:
Chia seeds not only provide calcium but are also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and antioxidants. They can be added to smoothies, oatmeal, or used as a topping for yogurt or salads.
7. Beans and Lentils:
Beans and lentils, including chickpeas, black beans, and lentils, are not only excellent sources of protein and fiber but also contain notable amounts of calcium. They can be incorporated into soups, stews, salads, or even used as a base for veggie burgers.
Calcium is an essential mineral that contributes to numerous functions within the human body. While dairy products are often associated with calcium, there are plenty of plant-based sources that can provide this vital nutrient. By incorporating leafy greens, almonds, sesame seeds, tofu, fortified plant-based milk alternatives, chia seeds, beans, and lentils into your diet, you can ensure an adequate calcium intake while enjoying a diverse and nutritious plant-based lifestyle. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for personalized guidance on meeting your calcium needs and maintaining optimal health.
For more detailed and comprehensive information, I recommend referring to reputable sources such as:
National Institutes of Health (NIH) - Office of Dietary Supplements:
Website: https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Calcium-Consumer/
Mayo Clinic:
Website: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements-calcium/art-20363792
Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health:
Nutrition Source - Calcium: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/calcium/
Vegetarian Resource Group:
Calcium in the Vegan Diet: https://www.vrg.org/nutrition/calcium.php
These sources provide evidence-based information on calcium, its importance in the human body, and plant-based sources of calcium.
Remember, it's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for personalized advice regarding your specific dietary needs and health concerns.

Vegan leather is just plastic and that’s worse for the environment than cow hide. And doesn’t last as long
Hi love. Sometimes this is true, it depends on the textile used! I think you're talking about the traditional synthetic options like polyurethane and other plastics that aren't sustainable. One of the most sustainable options is recycled leather (a more ethical way to use animal leather). If you're seeking more sustainable, plant-based leathers, look into Piñatex (pineapple) leather, mushroom leather (like Mylo), apple leather, or Desserto (cactus) leather x

i know quinn probably eats everything provided it’s not a raw vegetable but—
okay the fishing thing got me thinking like did. what if. quinn just plucks this flailing fish out of the water and watches eliot’s life flash before his eyes,, but instead of the logical conclusion of drowned cat = eliot mad he’s like oh. i know eliot. yes. must eat fish. proceeds to take a bite out of the fish in his hands but eliot barrels into him head first & 2 drowned rat hitters later that’s the last time quinn gets to go on an outing
—but then in my brain there’s a. side au. qwat lite. where quinn is vegetarian or vegan or somewhere in between but doesn’t eat meat and when everyone (eliot) finds out and stares at him like okay……this is a twist, but manageable, frantically whipping up something new, comments at this time pls he’s in a mission to make the best meatless version of—but quinn who can’t take a hint is like “meat is murder murder is bad” & eliot has an aneurysm on the spot
this is. pebbles this is SO unhinged,
so my personal "quinn is weird about food" hcs mostly stem from like... "textures are weird and also it's entirely possible that my food is poisoned if i haven't made it myself. i do not want to make it myself. i am eating sealed instant garbage thank you" and i would HOPE that he knows that taking a big chomping bite out of a freshwater fish WOULD detonate his digestive system HOWEVER
the image of quinn going "haha i grab fish like bear, i will pretend to bite the fish, like a bear" and eliot immediately being like. "this fuckin unfathomable moron's gonna give himself Miscellaneous Stomach Disease and I'LL have to take CARE of him" and promptly tackling him into the water is. so good. quinn is banned from outings. the fish escapes unharmed
and on an entirely separate note, quinn either genuinely or For The Bit transforming into a Meat Is Murder vegan mid-conversation is fucking hysterical
"meat is murder, animals have thoughts and feelings and killing them is just as wrong as killing people" says quinn, exactly like he's reciting something he memorized from a flyer someone handed him once (he's reciting something he memorized from a flyer someone handed him once)
"quinn" says eliot, "you kill people"
"yeah"
"professionally"
"is this relevant"

thoughts on veganism?
weirdly specific asks:
2. thoughts on veganism?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
personally i enjoy meat/eggs/dairy/etc etc way too much to ever be vegan myself. and as someone who grew up in a rural farming community, the misinformation that plagues a lot of the vegan spaces i've seen makes my teeth grind
