I want that on a t-shirt! And I’m definitely going to steal it for my slack tagline.

Vegan here. I found that it’s exclusively those coworkers, that are really about their masculinity. It’s an important part of their personality to be a man. Those people tend to also dislike or don’t understand LGBT folks, and have strong feelings about the differences between man and woman and their places in society. They are not bad people. I like a lot of them. But it gets tiring and infuriating at times.

It’s not gender related. Son was easy, daughter just couldn’t feel, when she needed to go until she was a bit over 4 years old. He will do it when he’s ready. I feel you.

When the Covid vaccines came out, my wife and I immediately got them. A couple of weeks later, our kids had a patch of various sicknesses, nothing major just some mild infections. I told our kindergarten teacher that I was annoyed about that and she tells, she read, that we are shedding the vaccine and that’s why our kids are sick now. I went full “are you fucking kidding me” mode and felt really bad for a long time after that.

I have noticed that working remotely really opened up the job market for me. Instead of being limited to where public transportation can bring me within 45 minutes, I can work for any company within Europe from the comfort of my home office. It makes switching jobs so much easier and I am willing to tolerate much less shit before I quit. That degree of freedom might scare companies. They can’t trap me anymore with the costs of uprooting my life for a better job.

The one where she tries to talk her boyfriend down from uprooting their life to start a podcast career in LA is even better.

Don’t you think that vegans know, that rice is a plant? That marketing is not aimed at us.

There are also a couple of reasons why someone might want to use a substitute for rice.

Growing rice is very water intensive. Rice contains traces of arsenic. And of course it’s full of carbohydrates.

The packaging is marketing and uses the same plant-based stick that is conflated with healthy food.

I would suggest that you try something different. Do a little tutorial game in the Godot engine and learn all the things that you would need to implement yourself if you wouldn’t have the Godot engine doing the heavy lifting for you. This might help you to get a feeling for the scope of your endeavor. I think it’s hard enough to build a game where you don’t have to implement sprite movement, update ticks, physics, collision detection, etc yourself.

If you want to do it anyway because it’s awesome, there’s a running joke that there are like 50 game engines currently being developed in Rust. Go all in!
