The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Tell us about a personal project, hobby, side thing, activity that you've been getting into lately

Ive actually had to scale back a lot of hobbies due to time constraints. But I have been working on building a portfolio since i am concerned about my employment long term. Havent made as much progress as i would like but I've been trying to get back onto a stricter schedule so i can work on it a little bit each day.

Unrelated but had to say goodbye to one of our dogs today. She had been part of the family for 12 years. Shits rough.

Loss is always hard, and a bitter price to pay for love. I hope you have space in life to grieve.

Shits rough.

I'm so sorry.

Many of us know this feeling very personally and deeply. I've been there before and dread the day I'll feel that way again.

Somehow animals pour out love that is seemingly endless. Each one is unique and irreplaceable, and it can take a long time before the memories are enough to bring your heart peace.

I'm so sorry for your loss 😞

It is a bummer how many people echo that they don't have time for anything else but work, I'm feeling similar pressures and it sucks.

Sorry for your loss 🙏
