Journal Entry #6
Jan. 14th, 2019 12:32 amSome thoughts before I go to bed (possible new year changes that I've been debating making):
1. I know everyone hates them, but I deeply admire vegans. I've never an annoying vegan; I have, however, met a lot of people that were annoying to vegans, which never fails to bother me. Like, sure, veganism can be problematic, but it's hardly as bad as it's made out to be. Ya'll are just salty cause vegans make you feel guilty, and because you're desperate for there to be a Bad Guy.
I kind of want to be vegetarian one day, because the meat industry repels me. But I've tried (and failed) to be vegetarian before, so... maybe I'll try again this year, but slower. I mean, even cutting a little meat out helps, right?
2. I wanna volunteer again. I used to volunteer for LGBT and Democrat organizations; I had to stop after I came out as trans. It was too overwhelming to focus on anything but me at the time.
Nowadays, the places I want to volunteer are different now; I'm much more radical politically than most people (Democrats included) can tolerate, and I'm too close to stealth to be comfortable outing myself as trans, so I'm looking into clothing/food drives & cleanups. Ideally, it'd be something I could do 2-4 times a month; I'm not looking to overwhelm myself again.
3. Kinda want to try making small (itsy-bitsy) donations to either a trans organization (like Lambda) or a green organization. I'm still debating that, tho; funds be tight, and I'm not looking to accidentally hurt myself financially.
