  • Sounds like they are doing far worse than they would like there. Here in Oregon, we have people setting drop boxes on fire. You think he gives a shit about that? I haven’t heard him mention it. Come to think of it, I haven’t heard Kamala say anything about it either, but that’s beside the point.

    They are slipping in PA and the only recourse, since a viable message and sustainable platform isn’t available, is to sow the seeds of doubt. I don’t know what his base of PA voters might think about wasting their time voting if its all rigged, like he claims; Perhaps his plan might blow up in his face. No harm for the democrats to keep letting him run his mouth. I mean, apart from the stochastic terrorism thing.















  • It’s pretty tasty, to me at least. But I like mushrooms so YMMV. That said, it’s not overly earthy or eating a bag of shrooms. If you ever, as a kid, saw a tin that said Hersheys on it in the cupboard and grabbed a spoon; well, it’s like that, but a little better. The cocoa in it is what gives you the caffeine bump IIRC. Assuming the ingredients are legit, then there is good stuff in it, but I think this is really geared toward another group of people than anyone trying to curb coffee. If it was cheaper, I’d drink it every day.

    To answer the question, sorta, you could grind a batch of lions mane and chaga and have at it. This has other stuff in it to for palatability, but like you said, you could make your own variety if you want. Again, assuming the ingredients are accurate, it would be good for you, as long as you can manage to choke it down.



  • That’s a good question but hard to nail down. In terms of nutrition, I was in decent shape as an omnivore in my late teens, early twenties, but nutrition was miles away from any thoughts I had on my diet. And even then, back in the late 90s/turn of the millinea, most substitutes and otherwise interesting plant-based foods didn’t exist, had limited availability or were pretty rough (cheeses, burgers etc…). Best we had was Morningstar corn dogs, boca and tofutti slices.

    I think Soy Curls were hitting the market up in Portland around that time (2k-ish), and that would have been mega when I was younger. But I was in Sac/San Diego at that time and distribution wasnt as widespread, or at least I hadn’t seen them. Though, now that I think of it, you could get big tvp chunks in 16oz bags at Trader Joe’s in that timeframe, so I guess that’s my primary answer.

    That said, I suppose I would have loved to discover Sunflower Cafe in Fair Oaks (Sacramento CA area) earlier on before going vegan. The super nut-burgers are amazing and that might have driven me to joining the dark side a lot sooner.
