    Already doing that, and living a mostly sustainable life, trying to reduce my carbon footprint as much as I can without sacrificing the little joys an exploited and burned out worker can.

    I hate that vegetarian/vegan options require so much work on my part and/or are expensive as hell at least where I live, thanks to the massive subsidies the meat industry gets.

    Hell, if I am having a tough day, which I often do, I don’t have the energy to make myself a lentil patty, just so I can eat a burger, or buy the grossly overpriced ones at the shop, but when I can buy a bag of them for less than a dollar each patty, convenience wins. That is one of the factors that made me stop being vegetarian. Got tired of all the work it takes.
