Basically every single whole food has all 9 essential aminos, the incomplete protein thing is a half truth. It is true some foods have an imbalanced amino profile but it's a complete fabrication that no plant foods are good enough. Many pulses, nuts, seeds, and vegetables will get you the recommended amount of aminos if you exclusively ate that singular food. For some examples pinto beans, peanuts, sunflower seeds, spinach. Even many grains like buckwheat and quinoa will get you there, just not wheat, the most commonly eaten one.

But I also find the term "nutritionally complete" to be a misnomer for something that simply has all the required aminos in the right quantities. Your body needs more than amino actions to function, there are many more known essential nutrients as well as nutrients that aren't essential but healthful, so it's best to eat a variety of things, and potatoes with dairy definitely does not satisfy the bill. Looping back to spinach though, it's an example of a food that might be as close to nutritionally complete as possible, perhaps Popeye was on to something.

But other people might make similar incorrect comments, better that your comment with the reply that makes a correction float to the top (for people who sort by upvotes). The best solution is probably editing if you have the time and upvoting the reply. Similarly I'll upvote something incorrect if I reply to it but downvote if I don't have the time to reply.

A few things to consider. A minority of cows are free range grass fed, a very small minority are 100% grass fed and free range to an extent that matters, even in the case of 100% grass fed there might be fertilizers used. And make no mistake, cows on open pastures are not a good way to feed the human population from an environmental stand point, probably worse than factory farms honestly. Fields are terrible at sequestering carbon and lack a lot of the biodiversity of the forests most of them historically replaced.

I don't think either is acceptable. But other animals have to accept it from us, and we would have to accept it from the aliens. Ultimately it would be up to aliens to determine what happens because they hold all the power, just as if other animals are ever going to achieve liberation it will be because of humans changing, not themselves, which is unfortunate.

Play however you want but I find your statement on player vs encounter power solely based on actions to be reductive. The power is definitely tilted in the player's favour this game.

Difficult terrain or damaging obstacle combined with either shoving and throwing or Eldritch Blast with Repelling Blast or Mobile Flourish or any other knockback. Early game you can generally combine a cantrip with another ability, environmental object, or item to produce some kind of hazardous terrain.

Paladin with Great Weapon Master and Hold Person/Monster. Proc your bonus attack and crit smite on demand. You can even do this effectively on the Paladin themselves by dumping most of your points into full caster classes, giving you many more smite slots as well. People swear by haste but CC is more immediate and effective.

Dual wielding with a Thief dip. You can always turn those bonus actions into attacks. You can be a machine gun or use your main action to cast useful spells well still making two attacks. Remember to unchain your two weapons so you don't automatically make offhand attacks in addition to main hand attacks.

I keep seeing the sentiment in this thread that if you go to prison you basically deserve whatever happens to you, which is a fucked up stance in itself, but more importantly:

Why do the cows, chickens, etc. deserve to suffer because someone is in prison? Does that make sense in any moral framework? How would you feel if we bagged random people not guilty of anything and forced prisoners to watch them tortured "on their behalf" as a form of punishment? That's pretty much the same situation ethically and everyone would agree it's fucked up.

What if you go to prison for taking pro animal liberation action?

This reminds me of the graphs from Brass Eye.

I wish people would be willing to put off eating all meat until we have lab grown stuff, like how most people are willing to put off eating human meat until we have lab grown stuff.

I get you, though I started playing early, only missing Selee's banner. I did some initial pulls on Jing's banner to try to get a foundation of units and accidentally got him before pity. Other than that I have only pulled for Silver Wolf and Luocha, skipping the carries. There are plenty of 4 star carries and I'm very happy running units like Qingque and Sushang, you only need 1 or maybe 1.5 damage units, so having a roster full of them would feel bad. I'm going to wait for Fu Xuan next.

My problem with Lae'zel is that she shares too many major story beats with Shadowheart. But individually they are good characters and we aren't spoiled for choice with 6.5 origin characters and a few more plot relevant companions. Her story works well for a Gith and it's good that we have a Gith companion option with how relevant the illithid are to the plot.
