My main point is that this has none of the macros of a hotdog so it hits differently than a hotdog. I am on tofu and chickpeas these days and I'm not really disputing the possibility of getting protein on a vegan diet, tofu and seitan are very under-rated by bro fitness chicken-and-rice guys. Those foods are pretty high in carbs compared to lean meat or non-fatty fish, I now have to eat a lot less stuff like bread and rice that's only carbs now. Compared to fatty meat like a hotdog, those replace the fat with complex plant carb which is probably better for you, but is a struggle to adjust to.

When I ate hotdogs I could eat like 3 and be good for a while if that was my lunch. I don't see myself eating 3 carrot-dogs and being good for a while.

A lot of people have surprisingly bad diets, I know too many people who don't really eat vegetables. When a typical meat-eater thinks about going vegan, they imagine eating a giant carrot replacing their giant slab of meat, and this is why people come in and say these things. I understand that point of view on this as someone who struggles with switching, and a recipe that tries to emulate the flavour profile and form of a hotdog but not the having the actual stuff that makes you feel like you ate a hotdog 10 minutes ago is a confusing thing for a non-vegan.

There's no real point to the original commenter, and there's no real point to my comment. Other than me understanding where the other person comes from.

Well nutritionally instead of being half fat, half protein, and a ton of preservatives that are probably bad for you, it's all complex-ish carbs and fibre.

Stuff like this 'hot dog' is where the "how do you even protein as a vegan bro" stuff comes about. Idk how you 'fix' that, maybe keto hotdog buns, and turning it into a bean chilli "dog"?

It sucks that you can't just go all in on vegan direct replacements because the nutrition is so different and you won't be full changing the macros of your meals overnight. If you had a terrible diet eating nothing but hotdogs and changed to this you'd feel hungry.

The whole building meals around a meat protein, and then having a bunch of other stuff diet is hard to break, and this sort of recipe is easy to give the impression that vegans are always hungry because it's so foreign.

I notice that I have to add a lot more fat to my meals to balance them because vegan protein comes with a lot more carbs, unlike animal protein which comes with fat by default.

100g of seitan isn't that much seitan and I'd eat that much in a sitting.

I'm never going to eat 100g (588 calories) of peanut butter in a sitting, so it's not really useful for anything. It has twice as much protein per 100g than tofu, yet tofu is a way better food for hitting daily protein goals. So what exactly is this number useful for if higher isn't better?

Serving sizes on nutrition info are arbitrary, but useful for having an idea of how much of something to eat at once. Protein per calorie is more useful for meal planning to hit minimum protein goals.

I don't see how protein per calorie would misinform as long as it's labelled. To me this is more misinforming because of the vastly different serving sizes.

It's called leasing a car you wanted anyways as a business expense sweaty.

You can also write off "light trucks" more than normal "cars". Add in some green subsidies that probably exist under democrats, and there's no point not having a new cybertruk.

Other than it potentially breaking your fingers if you use the frunk. Or not having rear visibility if you use the built in trunk cover. Or many design innovations.

The drum part is so fun in this

Idk why these charts are never protein per 100 calories.

Seitan is still the best for price/protein/calories if you can find wheat gluten and make it yourself. Peanut butter powder is also better on protein because of how much less fat is in it.

It's self help for tories, it's not really that deep.

Some of it is generic enough self help you can't really argue with, other stuff will leap out at you for being only slightly hidden conservatism in a supposedly apolitical self-help book.

Pirate it on libgen, or z-library or something.

Buy a bunch in bulk from China, go to the meetup spot, and then sell them out the back of your car.

Already missed the boat on peak money making, but I think there are still enough stupid in lifted trucks that you can make money.

Does China hate American stuff as much as Americans hate Chinese stuff?

Or is their country still generally on the upswing while the US is in decline so they don't care that much?

Always thought about selling trumpian t-shirts at rallies at big markup.

Brace Belden's t-shirt is probably the best one:

❎ Democrat

❎ Republican

✅ Gay Guy

Except where I am they'd be "fuck Trudeau" t-shirts, stickers, etc.

The Titan Submersible was at least a classical feel-good tale of hubris.

This thing is just annoying, who cares.

Most progressive statement by a rapper in 2012, and maybe even now

I'm looking for something that I can scan hand-written notes into and have OCR'd. Maybe one that I can even train on my handwriting. Ideally I end up with a searchable PDF of my notes.

People use one-note for this, but I'm not really comfortable with letting microsoft see my handwriting.

 

I was supposed to do boring life stuff today but I got heavily sidetracked by trying to model a physics problem.

This sort of distraction happens a lot to me, when I'm meant to be doing one chore but drop it and do a different one when I see it needs to be done. Like needing to clean the stove, then noticing the cupboards aren't clean, and then staying up late cleaning my kitchen from top to bottom. The sort of thing where it's hard to find motivation but once I do then I'm unstoppable.

I have a friend on adderall, and how he describes that drug it wouldn't work to help this because it helps you focus, but not necessarily on the right thing. He once took it to finish an assignment and then got fixated on a videogame instead and played it until 5am.

 

The only way to stop Bush is to vote for Kerry!

(Plz don't ban me for indirectly Kerry-posting)

 

When I first read it I thought it was a scam. Blackrock is offering one of these, it's legit. Why the hell are the SEC allowing it now in the year of our lord 2024? Is the growth machine really that stagnant that they need this?

brrrrrrrrrrrr

 

The Two Michaels are back, and potentially in court.

TL;DR North Korea travel agent sues government because fed-diplomat/NGO guy tricks him into sharing Chinese state secrets with him. Lawyer is the guy who won Omar Khadr 10mil so there's probably a case here.

 

Hamas is labelled a terrorist organization by the good countries, but they're also a government running infrastructure, hospitals, etc, all the mundane parts of government in Gaza.

Don't they have a PR or media-relations team to release an official statement on what the goal was with the festival shooting? Was it planned to be targeted, or did they just happen upon it and start shooting? Or were they just planning on taking hostages and there were security with guns at the festival which caused a shooting?

It was clearly a release valve that had to burst with regards to their living conditions, but what exactly was the plan? Or maybe it was because Saudi Arabia was starting to get friendlier with Israel?

Every time an apartment building is mowed down, the news gets a statement from an IDF guy saying "yup, definitely weapons in there, definitely alerted people and told them to leave, and all the boys there under 16 were actually soldiers". Where's the Hamas PR department on this?

 

I gained around 15 pounds since the last time i was actually active regularly, so i decided to do a 5k training program I found. I used to play recreational team sports before Covid, have been sedentary for a while, so I decided to download an app and do their 5k training plan.

The problem is that the plan is for people who can already run, but want to tune themselves for doing a 5k quickly. My body is not used to running, and now i probably need to take a week or more break. Parts of my knee/leg which have never been sore before in my life are now sore.

My advice for myself if I could go back in time 3 weeks: Just because you were active before at some point in your life, doesn't mean your body can do the same stuff still. DON'T INCREASE YOUR MILEAGE BY MORE THAN 10% A WEEK, AND WARM UP AND STRETCH PROPERLY.

 

After heavily relating to an ADHD meme that i saw here, I am now scared that I might have ADHD. I don't have any idea how I'd go about getting a diagnosis as an adult who didn't really have issues in school as a child.

I saw this article posted in this comm, and it seems to have decent advice. Anyone actually follow it here? Especially the adding structure bit?

I usually run away from structuring myself because it's too intimidating and I usually fall off the wagon. Anyone got any tips for being more organized with tasks and bigger projects/long term goals?

I think I mostly figured out the first point of "getting over your inner critic", but I feel like I need help getting through the other parts in the article, and it seems like organization/planning is crucial to that.

They used less CGI on the bear than the Queen in this. :walking-dead:

She can't sit in a carriage but she can talk to imaginary bears? I just don't know why they won't come out with it yet, whether it's Prince Andrew related or what.

 

I have no idea what to make for lunch to go, growing up I had a sandwich every day at school. I don't want to buy as much fast food as I usually do.

Anyone have anything good? I already have a go-to breakfast, and dinner is fine because I can figure something out on the spot based on what looked good in the store that week.

Lunch is hard because I have to plan it, and I don't want to pack too little and something that isn't filling. Ideally want something that can be eaten cold.
