I think her time as a criminal prosecutor will come in handy.

It's to prevent the adults who just entered the room from seeing them 'rise'

Gay marriage became legal for all states during Obama's administration, I'd call that progress.

She's a redhead, but still a bad joke

I make $200k and only donated $100, so I'm technically worse.

But Terry Crews is a bad Terry too. He's tied to Chinese money.

Just do your best, mistakes will happen. My wife and I have been fully vegan for 12 years, but she just got a gelatin medicine. Sucks, but the alternative is her health. We'll find an alternative hopefully soon.

Back in year one, we cheated and had a special ice cream, but it wasn't worth it.

If you can afford purple carrot for a few weeks, you can learn some new meals.

When we started, we didn't have many 'vegan alternatives' for meat, cheese, ice cream, mayo, etc, and we were much healthier eaters. Now we just use Beyond in our chili and call it a day, but it was better when we used TVP. It would be good to try both vegan meals, and substitute versions.

Other than that, just remember why you're doing it. I can't stand the thought of hurting animals, so I could never go back. Some do it for the environment or health reasons and those are probably easier to give up on, but find a passionate reason to push you over that ledge.

I remember seeing it in theaters on opening day (I was 9). I've loved it ever since.

This is a comic adaptation of the 1884 (that's not a typo) Flatland, but in the book, instead of rotating, they explain the concept of the next higher dimension. Similar result. Good book, nails the social satire of sexism (remains relevant today).

But then they'd have to stop eating shrimp, so...

That's not a language change, they knew.
