  • I hate this article and the way it’s written. It’s full of mean, petty stereotypes that make the author sound like an ass and its content seems to boil down to: “I like meat and vegans do, too, so yay for all the ultra processed substitutes because my palette won’t let me consider a meal without something that looks and tastes like flesh in it.”

    I am really sick of how absolutely boring this new type of vegan food is and how much it’s trying to be like meat. I don’t want it to be like meat. I want it to be interesting and actually tasty, not some generic fake burger they try to make look like it bleeds. I get that it’s allowing more people to eat more vegan things, but it’s still boring and gross to me.






  • That first “paper” doesn’t have anything even vaguely academic about it, it’s just musings on the physiology of flighted birds without any eye towards the consequences of or technology for making those changes, let alone anything that remotely justifies the possibility of those processes happening over 4 years.

    It sucks that your body is broken, but given that we currently do not have to technology to fix it, why bother with the fantasy that technology can make it into something completely different?
