Preface: Australian, may not be helpful for other countries

Do you have anybody who can sneak food in for you? I had a friend in ICU who was refused vegan food. I visited them and found out they hadn’t eaten, so I head to the nearest store and get them food and smuggle it in (as well as their meds they were refused access to).

It was also the case that in their file they were not marked as vegan despite telling all the doctors and nurses. I had to suss out the treating doctor as they were the only one who could add that to the file, but even then they thought it meant “veggo” (Vegeterian) and that ultimately didn’t fix the issue. So it could be the case that you haven’t told the right person? I understand it’s stupid that you have to go through all this effort, but don’t give out hope as it might be a management issue stopping you from getting food.

It’s gotten to the point where it’s too cold to get out of bed, but it’s also too cold in bed so I just kinda push through and get up anyways

You can’t just title a post here as “Study:” and not link to any relevant scientific literature. I couldn’t find any research referenced in your article, only youtube videos and news articles. Those are not problematic references in and of itself for a blog, but they are not studies which is what your title seems to indicate that you are talking about. Please just link the DOI of the paper you are talking about and stop self posting Medium articles with no references!

You then mention “20 compelling reasons to adopt a whole food, plant-based diet” which is not directly related to veganism. Most of your reasons come across as snake-oil cures to every aliment by practicing a plant based diet. Plant based =/= vegan. Remember where you are posting this, this is a vegan community after all. Reason 20 seems a bit strange as “reducing animal product consumption” is not what most vegans are trying to do. We aim to eliminate it the best we can.

I have messaged you on Lemmy two weeks ago regarding posting medium articles with tracking links (unique friend codes that bypass the paywall/loginwall) and I have commented publicly telling you to post the articles in the comments so that it is accessible for everyone to read. You still haven’t replied to a simple question about if you were writing these articles yourself and self-promoting them, and I made sure not to allude to if such a thing was welcomed or not as I wanted a discussion about it and for there to be transparency regarding self-promotion and biases.

This is a warning that if you post any misleading articles, or plant-based health dieting blogs, that you will not be allowed to post here again. If you could just respond to the criticism in the comments that would be very helpful as it is very unclear what your intentions are and people may assume the worst or unreasonably overlook this as you can’t assume anything from the little discourse there is from you.

You currently have 25 posts and 2 comments on your profile. It’s in your best interest to see your engagement go up.

You’re not alone. This isn’t normal and you’re not crazy for not wanting to be spied on just for making the mistake of going outside and walking past someone’s house.

Please post the article in the comments so that everyone can read it. Also, are you writing these articles?

Nice! I’ve updated the sidebar on !vegan to reflect the new community. Hope the change goes well :D

DE: XFCE

WM (Edit: compositor, you know what I mean): Hyprland, Wayfire (close second)

I really like how stable and polished XFCE feels, but I’ve got into tilling/dynamic window managers over the past few years so I just use Hyprland now. It’s not as stable and whenever there’s a bad commit and I can’t be bothered looking into it I just use Wayfire and praise the spinning cylinder and rotating windows for a few weeks.

Do you have two bootloader entries in the BIOS? Or were you using GRUB (or Systemd-boot) to boot between them?

It’s probably easy to fix, it’s just knowing exactly what happened is probably the most complicated step lol

Hope you’re able to fix it. Having the different OSes on different drives (portable drive in case of laptop) seems to cause the least amount of issues with boot entries dying after updates.

bad vibesHonestly considering carrying a brick around with me to see if people still want to cut me off at zebra crossings. Had a dude turn his head to stare at me while he nearly ran me over at a crossing and then he had the audacity to give me the ‘thanks’ hand wave… Every single day I go outside I nearly get ran over, but it’s always at crossings and not when I’m jaywalking. Pisses me off so much.

I love how it gave Brad a wolf and didn’t expand upon it

Are sonic weapons illegal here? Trying to figure out if it’s worth complaining to the council about a mosquito-like device. My ears feel like they are gonna bleed after walking near it, I can’t imagine what children and other animals go through when being near it :(

neurospice, 1 month ago

I could only find sites to buy said devices lol

I found the model. Apparently it’s meant to annoy cats, dogs, and some other animals. Still can hear it (as well as a friend my age). It’s on private property and I don’t live next to it so I don’t think I have a good case for going to EPA, but I’ll be emailing my council tomorrow as they say you can report noise hazard to them.

There is no help that can save me for I cannot exit vim.

Vim takes yet another victim. Now I’m stuck in eternal damnation, never able to close the damn thing.

Been hazy and smokey over here in the western suburbs for a few days. Today seems a bit worse though.

I use this tool to see the air pollution in real time. aqicn.org/here/

The closest one to me says that the from the 29th something suddenly polluted the air. Not sure what it is, but could be bushfires or a factory mishandling something.

The one in Sandringham says the air’s worse for some reason. Currently at “unhealthy”. Best to stay indoors.

Just don’t update the printer’s firmware! Mine’s being going great for years now, but I’m scared that I might accidentally update it and the toner will be labeled unauthorised

I get this as well. It’s the pinned posts on the melbourne comm.

What it looks like on db0:https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/c65988f8-7167-4c0c-8aa2-7e1eff6d47ae.png

Don’t know how or when this happened.

This is so ridiculous, I fucking love it. I just have waybar bound to a hotkey, but this solution is truly amazing

I relate a lot to this. I also think I have Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder which is apparently meant to be common with ADHD. It takes hours to wake up if I get up before midday, it’s so annoying

Absolutely no rain here…
