[Possibly surpisingly Rare Trope?] Vegans and Vegetarians in fiction
Around 20-22% of the world is Vegetarian and 1% is Vegan. Despite this i cant think of that many fictional characters who identify as either.
Aang (Avatar: The Last Airbender) - airbenders in Avatar: The Last Airbender are vegetarians. Their diet is rooted in their deep pacifism and the belief that all life is sacred. The culture is based on real-world Tibetan Buddhist monks who traditionally practice vegetarianism.
John Stewart (Lanterns) - A change from his comic counterpart, John is either Vegan or Vegetarian. Also how is this still the only image from the show avaliable on Google images.
Vlad Dacula (Young Dracula) - representing the possibly more common trope of Vegetarian Vampires we have
DrWhittakerVlad from Young Dracula, a Vampire who rather that drinks blood, drinks a Soya-based substitute

Whats life like in Montenegro?
Going on holiday in a few days here to the coast. Pretty much all i know about Montenegro is its stereotypes about the people sleeping a lot, it being the last yugoslav republic to split away from Serbia, and that during the 1990s it was the center of Europe's smuggled ciggerete market. So i guess Im just kind of want to know what day to day life is like there :)

Anyone else think Burnham needs to go?
It's been over 24 hours now.
I'm trying to be patient, I really am, but enough is enough.
The pothole outside my house? Still there. My train is still late. The wasps are still being aggressive for absolutely no reason. My air fryer still burns chips if I leave them in too long.
Frankly, I expected better.
Before anyone says "he's only been PM for a day" - that's just excuses. If you can't fix inflation, NHS waiting lists, housing, GP appointments, immigration, crime, the economy, and somehow persuade the Met Office to give us a decent July within your first 24 hours, then why even run?
I've also noticed:
My tea went cold.
A pigeon looked at me funny.
The self-checkout still thinks I've stolen a banana.
My Amazon parcel is delayed.
The moon looked a bit smug last night.
Not saying Burnham personally caused any of this, just asking questions.
Meanwhile his supporters are already saying "give him 100 days." Oh right, because apparently expecting the country to become a Scandinavian utopia overnight is "unrealistic."
At this rate he'll probably need weeks before he gets around to ending hay fever.

Is it weird that I dont care about the impact my death will have on my family?
People always bring up the pain your suicide would have on those around you as a reason to stay alive and when I think about it and properly visualise it, it just does nothing for me. Like I picture my fiancee being the first one to find my body and having to deal with it or my cat meowing outside the bathroom door or the phone call where my parents tell my siblings, and I properly try to empathise with the pain my death will cause and its just doesnt do anything - its like not a reason to stay alive. I get that this makes me pretty selfish and a bit fucked for thinking that. They're all lucky that ive always been such a coward I guess.

If I had access to a firearm I'd be dead
Too afraid off surviving with permanent brain or body damage to go out any other way. Its near impossible for me to get hold of a gun because i live in the UK but since I was at least 16 ive had vivid fantasies of shooting myself. Even if I could I'd probably fuck it up and live though.
