yeah the hardest part of being vegan is interacting with non vegans. gotta love how the default response to veganism (you know that thing we do to try to better the planet and animal rights and shit) is to argue as if doing something about the issues you care about is a negative trait.

mfs always got something to say and love attacking a thing that as far as i'm aware is proven to be better for personal health, the environment, your wallet, and animals.

chickpea salad is my go-to for sandwiches! i usually go with chickpeas, mayo, and curry powder or buffalo sauce, but nori sounds phenomenal - gotta try that

do it! there are tons of how-to videos and articles online about fermentation. my only warnings are:

  • make sure your containers are clean
  • know what kahm yeast looks like and that it's safe so you don't freak out and think it's mold just in case you grow some

i would say it is only marginally more difficult than pickling. you just have to calculate how much salt you need in the brine by weight - generally 2-5% of the combined weight of the water + veg - then you chuck the stuff in a jar and wait. the easiest way i've found is to weigh the veg in the jar covered with water, then pour the water out, add salt and pour back in so you have the perfect amount of brine. the only downside about it is you have to wait a while (up to a couple weeks depending on what you want).

hell yeah for pickled red onions - such an awesome item to have in your fridge at all times and they make most things better. i forgot about my most recent batch for a few months but that's the beauty of pickling lol, they are still delicious even now. super easy too, i recommend anyone reading this who has never tried before to give it a shot - it takes like 10 minutes and most of that is boiling water/vinegar.

have you ever tried lacto-fermenting vegetables? it scratches the same itch pickling does for me, and it gives the veg a flavor that is hard to get otherwise. i like to do hot peppers mostly, but you can chuck anything in there really.

finally got myself a set of crochet hooks - i've been wanting to learn for a while but i've also been slacking on my current embroidery project so i'm trying to power through that before i start crocheting

gonna try to make some desk chair arm covers since mine are doing that cool thing where the material breaks and peels and is really uncomfortable

i want and try to be but i don't succeed every day. i hate thinking about those times when i don't succeed, but being mindful of those times is a big part of what i can do to succeed more often.

i remember it being pretty good in the beginning and not bad towards the end. it isn't making any top 10 lists but it was enjoyable with a unique premise

this is the correct response.

get it in writing that they accept the risk that comes with not upgrading so it can't come back on you. all you can do is CYA and make recommendations - if management does not agree with your recommendations make sure you have it documented that you informed whoever is making the decision of the risk.

if you think your employer will somehow still try to hold you accountable for this, save the aforementioned correspondence using something your employer does not manage i.e. a personal device. you could also let other people than this specific individual know about this so it isn't just your word vs his.
