Only a small fraction of vegans were raised vegetarian or vegan. Many of us once loved animal-based foods–myself included!

Veganism isn't about lacking exposure to dishes like a beef stew; it's about understanding that the appeal of a beef stew doesn't justify animal suffering and the environmental impact.

Cerita pendek: Seekor Wowo. Dia bukan anjing saya. Dia diselamatkan oleh @yeehuan_gan, lalu dipelihara oleh @anajonessy. Jadi, mengikut sosial, anjing ini anjing mereka berdua. Saya tidak boleh pegang anjing. Mama saya marah. Bapa saya yang sudah tiada juga pasti marah. Tuhan juga pasti marah. Tapi hari-hari dia jilat paha saya jika saya keluar merokok (sesudah anjing itu sihat). Anjing ini suka menjilat. Satu hari, ada anjing namanya Bebe. Dia faham cakap cina. Saya tahu sebab bila manusianya bercakap cina, dia baik-baik dengan saya. Kata manusianya, Bebe ini manja. Saya tidak percaya. Kalau dia mengeluarkan taring dia sama seperti saitan di mata saya. Tiba-tiba Bebe mengeselkan kepalanya di kaki saya. Saya panik dan terus usai-usai kepalanya. Bebe diam dan jika saya berhenti usai, dia pandai cari cara meminta. Hari itu pertama kali saya usai anjing seperti yang selalu saya lihat dalam tivi. Selalunya tivi adalah toksik sepenuh masa tapi untuk mengusai seekor anjing, ianya tidak. Jadi hari itu saya mula mengusai anjing yang bernama Wowo. Dan saya pasti, Thales, jika kau bangun, kau akan bertepuk tangan dan berkata horay, kita dalam satu barisan sama di neraka. Jika anda baca sampai habis cerita ini, saya mengucapkan terima kasih. Jika tidak, go f yourself (yang membaca boleh tolong katakan ini kepada yang tidak membaca cerita ini). http://bit.ly/2I96cTA

Are you taking care of yourself?

Don’t exchange your freedom for the illusion of comfort and external validation.

I rolled out of bed and stumbled to the fridge. I grabbed my overnight iced coffee like a lifeline, “Hey, everything else can wait—caffeine first."

My heart felt heavy and so I took big gulp and suddenly I'm ready to face the world, or at least my inbox. I don’t think anything gets easier as we get older, but I’ve got the liquid courage for the dreamers in my hand–the promise of a new day.

I’m gonna be fine.

Self-sabotage is hard to recognize.

Let’s be real, if some days your rendang is beef, your tom yum has shrimp, your dumplings are stuffed with pork and your pizza is pepperoni, you’re not ‘90% vegan.’ You’re 100% not #vegan. 🥴

Veganism is a full time commitment. There are no days off or cheat days.

If your #veganism isn’t intersectional, it isn’t veganism at all. You can’t advocate for the liberation of non-human animals while perpetuating racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, etc. Make it make sense! 🤨

I have three siblings who are all ten to thirteen years older than me, and they all went to boarding school. Because of the age gap, my siblings and I didn't really grow up together, and I spent a lot of time by myself. I also didn’t have a great relationship with my mom, so when I was younger–even though I’d developed a strong sense of social independence, I always said that being around people was the best thing in the world.

I moved out of my family home soon after I turned eighteen or nineteen and since then, I’ve lived with a bunch of people, and I was constantly surrounded by friends and friends of friends, and total strangers. Everyone was in such close proximity–I went from feeling like an outsider to feeling like a social person, and then back again–and I was ok with that. I think I might’ve even equated it to being happy that I’d get anxious after spending even a little time by myself. I felt so restless and miserable, mostly because of the feeling of loneliness that consumed me.

For years it didn't occur to me that, as with most things, my discomfort with being alone might be a sign that I am not meeting my emotional needs.

Fast forward to a little over a year ago, I moved to the outskirts of town and because of that, I don’t really go out as often anymore unless it’s for work. And then, of course, the pandemic happened–I had to quit my job and after getting the curse, I started spending more and more time by myself and that has led to some great things… and some really terrible things, like, it hasn’t particularly been great for my mental health (or rather, lack thereof lol).

But that moment in self-isolation had me thinking about how much I rely on other people to make myself feel ok, and also how incredibly liberating it is to lose the unrealistic expectations put on me to be ‘happy’ and ‘productive’ all the time. I’m an adult and it really sucks that I am so late to the self-realization party haha, but wow, it feels good to finally allow myself to feel what I feel when I feel it.

So these days whenever I feel irrationally upset about anything (or nothing at all!), instead of simply shelving it and focusing on everyone and everything else that is going on, I take a step back, breathe and think about the ways I can create and hold space for myself. Sometimes that means staying in bed longer, reading, trying out a new recipe, listening to a podcast, working on a project, putting my phone on ghost mode, or taking myself out for walks… just doing whatever it is that makes me feel comfortable and content. Other times it’s sitting with myself staring into blank space, or crying (for like, an hour… or more?!?!?!!!!) and feeling so much better afterward.

Anyways, it’s 7:30AM and I just woke up to pee. I’ve got about an hour to journal and relax in bed before I need to get up, make myself breakfast, hit the shower, then head out to see my psychiatrist and counselor. It’s going to be a good day to hang out with myself today.

If you’re reading this, I hope you can find time to hang out with yourself today too. Enjoy yourself. Give yourself advice on life, love, work, and more. Tickle your scalp. Take yourself out on a date. Indulge in self-pleasure. Laugh at your own jokes. Go have fun!

Sadness hit me like a tidal wave—unexpected and overwhelming. Yet there I was, amidst the crowd, dancing with a fervor that belied my emotional turmoil. It might seem counterintuitive, dancing through sadness, but in that moment, it made perfect sense. My body responded instinctively–it wasn’t about performing for an audience, I was reclaiming a sense of agency, and it was cathartic.

It's going to hurt but I hope you find a reason to wake up and feel your feelings, and love each day despite it all.
