CW dysphoria around imagined body hair

Had a dream the other night that I woke up and looked in the mirror only to see a patch of weirdly long hair on one cheekbone and a chest so thick with hair I couldn’t see the skin underneath. First thought was “what the fuck now I have to deal with this shit too??” It was not very pleasant -:-

Politics aside, naming places after someone who’s still alive is gross

Individuals are relentlessly marketed to by targeted ads psychologically designed to get them to purchase disposable, useless slop, but sure let’s just say it’s their fault for falling for it.

I don’t understand how this post isn’t supposed to be political, or at least make reference to it/invite discussions of it. What are we all upset about, forming an army and going out there to “sort out”? Why are things bad to the point where, were this a movie, the superheroes arrive?

Because to me (and several others) the answer is clearly politics, the current political trends and movements.

We’re not angry for no reason, but in fact for a series of very valid political reasons. I won’t get into the specifics since it’s against the rules, but I don’t think it’s very fair to make a post gesturing at the state of the world, in a way that says we should get involved, and then telling people they can’t discuss what we’d actually do because the solutions are political. To insist otherwise feels to me like we’d be protesting just to protest with no actual goals.

Back in the day they would also be angry though, these men at least seem polite enough to leave a thank-you card

As the core of veganism is consent, there are several elements to consider:

1. Consent of the substance’s sentient source: The coffee bean seems more than willing to give this up… almost too willing. I don’t think there’s a direct issue here, but definitely warrants further consideration when other parties are involved.
2. Consent of the substance’s consumers: neither Mordecai nor Rigby seem to want what’s going on. While Rigby signed the contract, and could be held to its terms under ideal circumstances, it’s a rather predatory situation since it’s presented in a language he doesn’t understand. Mordecai didn’t sign anything, did not consent even on paper, and is a complete victim here.
3. While mostly related to point #2, contracts are often wielded as a tool of the powerful against the weak, and in an inequitable exchange ends up being little more than a justification to continue a coercive arrangement one party would back out of if given the choice.

So I’d say while the events depicted are not vegan, but the coffee itself as a substance is most likely vegan. It’s a little hard to say for certain without more context tho, for instance if the bean is also coerced to act this way by outside forces.
