Some prefer the taste of Peppa Pibb.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

They're grilling vegetables and stuff but I'm sure the creators knew what they were doing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Yours always tastes better... joked.

Dark... Probably the darkest humor I've seen on Lemmy

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 days ago (1 children)

One time I stared into the void of the beans, and the beans stared back at me.

Except for the news channels you mean? 😉😕😞

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago

This joke is a bit ham-fisted, I have to say

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Delectable. (though a bit on the nose..)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Is this lo--

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (6 children)

Haha, he killed the Peppa Pig! Get it?? Because WE kill pigs too and eat them. So funny, right!? A dead pig like the millions of others, haha! Now I want a sandwich, haha!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

It's... It's a pun.

TIL: Lemmy reacts to vegans the way Facebook reacts to leftists

[–] lmmarsano 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Not sure where everyone gets vegan from this. I'm sensing more neurological dysfunction.

Anyone curious what this king of comedy considers funny?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

You4e telling me you couldn't go for a grilled cheese with pickles and nuts on a fancy rustic bread? A nice smoky tomato soup for dipping?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Yes I could. But I'd swap the cheese and milk-stuff for a plant based alternative, because of the suffering, the destruction and the annihilation that comes with animal agriculture. I don't want to pay for this, be a part of it just because I was raised accustomed to the taste. There are great alternatives. But first, you gotta educate yourself, watch the videos. I used to be just as irritated as you.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

There isn't good vegan cheese and you know it. It's like the one thing; fermentation is complicated. Cheeses are hard to fake when you've got animal proteins to work with.

The closest id get is, like, miso or something with a stickyfying agent, guar gum or something to cohere the bread. Dish would still need adjustment.

The ecological toll is real, but it's hard to take concern for animals seriously in this context when you've seen what we do to the human workers who make our everything. Better to shorten the supply chain and have as few beings/exploitation hours involved as possible if that's your worry.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I used to love cheese and I agree. There is no perfect replacement, yet. Making udder cheese is complicated (and weird!) and thousands of years old, plant based cheese just a decade. If you're not ready to make compromises, then start somewhere else. You don't have to go all in, change step by step. Choose a meal that you like to cook and veganise it. Or learn a new one, there are billions of modern and traditional recipes from around the world.
Buy oat milk and stick with it for a couple of weeks. It's just a taste, you will learn to like it eventually.

You're wrong about buying local, though. Transport is only about 2% of the emissions at the most.

"Human workers are treated badly" ticks the Vegan Bullshit Bingo #23:
There are more important subjects

Absolutely! Fortunately, being vegan doesn't mean you can't care about anything else. We have to eat either way. Why not something ethically and ecologically justifiable, then? We hardly have such a big lever as through our choice of food - 3x a day. And a look at the environmental, humanitarian and global health consequences of animal-based foods quickly shows how important and urgent this issue is, and how much people and the environment benefit from it.

Used to be vegan, back when i cared about the future of humanity and the earth a little more; the math is kind of undeniable, but there's no use pinching pennies if you won't step back from the craps table-maybe when we collectively do, i will again. I just did without fake shit. There's plenty of cool plants and i know my chemistry 101. Wasn't ever missing all that much, except very high end pastry, which is beyond my skill anyway.

By short supply chain i dont mean distance, i meant like steps. Labor (and other exploitation) hours. Like, for the chips in the device im typing this on, in addition to the chips I'm currently binge eating.

vegan bingo

No i think when you've got slaves dying in the field or suicide nets on the factories, when the child soldiers around the mine the raw minerals come from are kept drugged 24/7, and nobody in the town near the smelter makes it to fifty, it's a valid point. We dont treat anyone like fellow persons under capitalism, and trying to act like being vegan is automagically better is simply absurd.

Their lives are not automatically worth more for being human; we agree thats anthropocentric and fucking damn near omnicidal. They aren't worth less either; thats racist classist and myopic.

And id laugh at the version of this cartoon with a human child too, it just wouldn't be as legible. Might be funnier.

You sound like you need a hug. What can I say? Life has always been a scam for many, but we didn't hear most of their stories. Now we do and it sometimes affects our mental health. I try to focus on stuff I can make a difference. I wish you all the best, take care.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think your connection glitched, you've double posted.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nuh uh. That was on purpose, you just don't understand art.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I am a philistine.......

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Buddy, are you virtue signaling on a meme about a fictional characters?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Had to look up Virtue signalling. Yes sir, I do. The character is fictional, but the killer hUmOuR is real. Bacon btw. Enjoy your upvotes.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This is the only vegan meme I currently have saved. Consider this my olive branch, and maybe learn to suspend your disbelief.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

He is most likely german judging by instance and name, and we have no humor we are aware of. Apologies

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Woh if I become vegan will I gain your mighty intellect and command of the English language as well, you've convinced me to stop eating animals

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Their variation of English is due to them being European and I am American.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

The profile view in the third panel is wrong, there are supposed to be 2 eyes on each side.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Also, there is a doctor in the show, and he is a brown bear, not a pig.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago

Vegans HATE this one simple trick:

Seems like a good pink tbh

A mother's grief as a dark punchline, hilarious. This artist should share notes with Stonetoss, equal damage to the areas of their brains that experience empathy.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago (5 children)

Damn i bet you're fun to be around

Holy false equivalence Batman!

[–] lmmarsano 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

experience empathy

Is there some term for the weaponization of empathy in a shitty argument? That word gets overused. Whenever I see it come up, it's almost always a shitty argument. Definitely not the trump card they treat it as.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

I mean people have been weaponizing therapy speak for years now.
