Made these on a whim. And they were incredible. You should make these too.
I mean, look at that shit.
vegan
Smoothies and Shit.
After 34 years of life, I buckled down and bought a blender.
And a shit ton of fruit.
And its amazing.
Smoothies are a godsend.
Thats my cart o’ fruit from Sam’s Club. I need more bananas.
This is an apple and banana smoothie. It was like a delicious apple sauce.
This is not a smoothie. This was a vegan pizza I made from scratch. It was awesome. Spinach and jalapeno as toppings. You should try it. The crust was just flour, baking powder, and water with some basil and oregano seasoning.
What I Ate Yesterday. (Because you care?)
Yup. I think this’ll be a regular Sunday thing. What I ate on Saturday. Like a really boring newspaper… on the Internet.
It’s Time for More… Experiments
Flipping around the ol’ diet, because what is life without experimentation?
On top of a multitude of leafy greens and some berries, the following meals (and those like them) will be becoming staples:
1)Fried tofu slabs topped with mashed avocado.
2)Spaghetti squash with tomato, garlic, and jalapeño.
3)Zucchini noodles sautéed with eggplant and olives.
I’m lowering my carbohydrate intake and raising my (plant based) fat intake.
Let’s see how this works out. I think it will go swell.
Remembering Never- Slaughterhouse Blues
Lyrics:
I’d just like to reverse the roles
just for a day or forever
It’d be a day to remember
Where you’d get a chance to taste your blood so heartless
See the torture through the eyes
of the perdetermined dead
Murder is a family value in almost every home
Murder is a family value three times a day
Beaten senseless to a bloody mess
Burned alive and completely drowned to death
Feel the fear
Taste the pain
Take the guilt to your grave
Throat cut ear to ear
Suffocate
There’s no waking up from this nightmare
Bare witness to this nightmare
I’d just like to reverse the roles
just for a day or forever
It’d be a day to remember
You can watch your loved ones meet their maker
Single filed death march
You would sing a different tune if this happened to you
Murder is a family value in almost every home
Murder is a family value three times a day
There will be no more blood the day
(the day) injustice dies
Fat Vegans?
Please note, I originally wrote this back in 2012. So… it’s pretty old.
With PETA and other ‘vegan’ organizations basically trying to fat-shame omnivores into going vegan, let’s take a look at veganism as a health choice. Is it healthier than the Standard American Diet (SAD)? Can you lose weight while eating a vegan diet? The answers are: It can be, and you can.
A lot of vegans eat crap. Oreos, Sun Chips, sugary cereal, white bread and pasta. Sugar on everything. I was a morbidly obese vegan for a long time, and it wasn’t until I cut that crap out of my diet that I started losing weight. (80 pounds down so far- dropped from 320 to 240, and from pant size 44 to 36). Fat vegans exist. Fat omnis exist. Fat vegetarians exist. Why? They eat shit.
If a vegan eats well, fuck yeah they’ll lose weight. Fuck yeah, they’ll be healthy. Fuck yeah, they’ll most likely avoid shitty diseases like diabetes. If a vegan eats shit, like sugar oreo sandwiches, fuck yeah they’ll get fat, fuck yeah they’ll be unhealthy. Common sense (and some dietary knowledge kind of dictates that shit).
So why go vegan if you can be just as unhealthy with a vegan diet?
Because veganism is not a fucking diet. It’s a lifestyle. Its more than abstaining from meat, milk, and eggs. We eschew ALL animal products the best we can. Leather, silk, honey, wool, feathers, and fur. A person who just cuts animal products out of their diet is not a vegan. They are a vegetarian.
I am a vegan due to ethics. I do not feel right when others have to die to feed me, when they don’t have to. Yes, I know some animals die when vegetables are farmed. I know death is a part of the animal kingdom, part of life. I am removing myself from that cycle as best I can. We cannot let perfect be the enemy of good.
The non-aggression principle played a large part in forming my worldview. I am in no means a pacifist, if attacked, I will defend myself. Whether it be by a human, a lion, or a dog. I will not go out of my way to hurt or harm others. Whether they be a human, a lion, or a dog. I will not exploit another. Whether they be a human, a lion, or a dog.

2016 Update: Eating healthy is hard, no matter your ethics. Candy and cake taste good. Do the best you can. Pick an apple over a damn candy bar. You know this. It’s hard sometimes. Fuck, its hard a lot of the time.
Stop Being Dicks
Hi. I’m a vegan. I’m also not a raving dick to non-vegans. And you shouldn’t be either.
Yes, I know that veganism is important, the goal to end animal suffering is noble and just, and that veganism is healthier and cheaper than an omnivorous diet.
Mocking non-vegans, especially if they have cancer or other diseases, is not cool. It makes you a dick. Stop it. You attract more people with agave nectar than with vinegar.
I get the anger. I get the frustration. I get the vitriol. Its easily understandable. But…
STOP
BEING
A
DICK
ABOUT
IT.
Compassion for animal life needs to blossom into compassion for all life. We all walk different paths, dance to our own beat, march to our own cliche. Inform, don’t ram information down their throats. Is that how you became a vegan? By someone mocking you and slagging you down for eating meat?
It’s counterproductive, and worse, it makes vegans easy targets for mockery back.
Inform, don’t yell. Educate, don’t hate. Its as obvious as the health benefits of apples.
It’s so easy to hate, so easy to give into it. But don’t.
Let’s lead by example. Let’s reduce animal suffering.
Let’s abolish animal cruelty.
Let’s eat our potatoes and tofu and boca burgers and celery and apples and bananas and…
Educate your family and friends. Don’t wear leather. Don’t wear fur. Don’t consume shit with palm oil in it. Feel free to say “no thanks, I’m vegan” when presented something with animal in it, food or otherwise. If they roll their eyes, whatever. That’s on them. If they mock you, that’s on them. If they keep it up, punch them in the throat or something, I dunno.
Silly Saturday
Dinner is Served
What we have here are lentils, barley, and buckwheat, boiled with red pepper flakes, basil, and oregano.
It was delicious.
With enough left over for chili tomorrow.
