    i am not against changing our diet per say. i can envision a future where we eat more bugs/algae proxies. when playing cyber punk i saw an ad for pizza with “REAL peperoni crickets” or something, and wile i know it’s out there to shock the player, the more i think about it the more i embrace it.

    in this case i declare broken clock protocols, and know that this is a symptom to larger rot in society, but our current way of life was never sustainable, nor particularly healthy.

      Meanwhile legumes: am I a joke to you?

      Miraculous nitrogen fixing nutritional powerhouses with more culinary flexibility than virtually everything else out there, and y’all are so averse to putting some plants in your mouth that you’d start talking about resorting to eating bugs.

      To be fair I do regularly take algae oil supplements I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        jesus tap dancing christ.

        the speed at which a vegan IMMEDIATELY shot me down as not good enough has to have been precognition.

        but sure, yea, whatever, beans and other plants we are already eating should probably be involved and be more prominent in our diets.

        damn!

          Uh dude, you’re talking about eating animals. What, you think I’m gonna be like, “Yeah eat those crickets! Fuck those guys!”?

          But also, in this case I was more criticizing your dramatics about cyberpunk dystopias. Like yeah, meat is unsustainable, so of course things like this will happen. What does that leave? The stuff you should be eating more anyway.
