TBT | Our Heroes are (Still) Problematic

Image contains three photographs placed next to each other in three narrow columns. Each photo contains a male looking at the camera, and he is mimicking the gestures for see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil in each respective panel. Above the men in the photos, there is white text that says "Our Heroes Are Problematic" and below the men there is text that says "Where Am I Wednesday".

With the future of the next issue and the magazine still up in the air, I thought today would be a good time to throwback to when I discussed the issue of hero worship in relation to Peter Singer and a few others. Read More »

T.O.F.U. Talks: A Vegan World

Image contains a white background with black text that says "T.O.F.U. Talks" above a black line with a small indent in the centre pointing below to text that says "A Vegan World".

It took months for us to finally connect, but when Leigh-Chantelle and I did start to chat about her move away from social media and just what caused it, there was plenty to say. Read More »

T.O.F.U. #15 | A Giveaway

Image contains a light orange-red background with two book covers tilted vertically away from the centre of the image. On the left, the first cover contains a black background with a yellow circular object coming up from the bottom of the frame. A visible wedge portion of the object is missing from its centre, and it looks like a mouth. Above the object, there are two blocks of text. The larger one, just below the middle of the image, says "Making Change". The word "Making" is in white, and the word "Change" is in orange. The smaller block of text below says "Will simply eating all the vegan things" in one line and "save the world?" in another. The words "save the world?" are in orange. Just above the text, there is a small brown piece of what looks like ground beef. At the very top of the image, there is text that says "T.O.F.U." in white, and within that text there is more text that says "T.O.F.U. Magazine". The word “T.O.F.U.” is in orange. Just below the white T.O.F.U., there is text that says "Issue 15 Capitalism November 2019”. On the right, the second cover contains a pale yellow background with a small section looking similar to snake skin with darker yellow patches. Above this image, the words "Veganism Sex and Politics” are written in bold white letters with a black border near the top. Below this, the words "tales of danger and pleasure" are written in a smaller black font made to look like handwriting. On the bottom, the author’s name, C Lou Hamilton is written in green.
