it was so stupidly difficult to find any nutritionist who has experience with arfid & takes insurance so after having to go through all these referrals my therapist sent me & jumping through hoops I lowkey hate the lady lmao feels like such a waste of time & energy
#its only our third time meeting but its so beyond fucking frustrating to feel like we spent the whole hour going in circles & lowkey arguing#& like she never actually listened to any of the things ive told her. like the ENTIRW REASON i told her i was seeking extra help after#dealing w arfid type noncense all my life was 'achieving goal x is always kind of tough but im trying to do it while also achieving goal y &#im struggling with finding a way to balance the two things' like thats IT & then as shes suggesting things to try im like idk of those are#worth the effort bcus they conflict w goal y & shes like. have you considered not worrying about that so you can focus on x?#like NO bcus thats what i was previoislt doing & it doesnt fucking work for me! & she was just not understanding what i meant by adding#variety or having 'better options' shes all like. ok but even if this new thing conflicts with goal y it can just be another option for you#like thats not the POINT i already have enough options i can switch between that conflict with that like the whole point is i need to fill#the gaps w things that are nutritionally different. like if im ok with something thatll use up a significant portion of ny daily values of#shit then i already have multiple options that i actively like well enough i dont wanna waste my time adding more that are things i think#are just ok but take more work. literally whats the point of that#& im like i think rather than me just thinking of random shit i think i could try itd be helpful if I could like get some guidance on like#what are some things that fall into somewhere into this category or this adjacent category while also not being this other thing & then i#cab like determine from there what i already like & can try & add more of & things from that list that sound like sth i can try#& shes like well idk theres a lot of foods out there. YEAH ABD ISNT IT YOUR FUCKING JOB TO KNOW ABOUT FOOD? like i gave fairly specific#parameters this isnt like a 'list every food on earth' type of question what am i even paying you for if you cant come up with a list#like that. & she jept getting hung up on like well lots of things that are the most calorically dense are gonna be like that like ok it#doesnt have to be the MOST dense maybe think about it like 'the densest things in this other category' which sounded straightforward to me#but she was just like continuing to argue & also like getting hung up on reminding me that everything is dependent on portions like#I FUCKING KNOW?? like if a serving of something is like 10% of my dv id rather find something where a serving is 5% etc. idk how thats like#a hard concept like whats the point of adding something to be like oh sure ill have a third of a serving & get 50 extra calories out of it#be so fr rn im so beyond frustrated still even tho its been hours since i talked to her this is more stressful & annoying than the stress of#just trying to figure shit out on my own i fucking hate having to try & re explain nyaelf ivee & over & have someone just talk over me &#fail to understand what im getting at. im one more shitty session away from quitting & just resigining myself to 70% liquid diet#anyways#texticles

Adding into the discussion of the incarcerated young people fighting fires in California:
I can think of no place worse than prison for emotionally stunting or regressing a person or for dismantling their ability to make good decisions.
You take an adult or child who maybe has exhibited some antisocial behaviors, right? So you remove them from whatever community and support network they have, put enormous financial and logistical barriers between them and any communication with that community. Incarcerate them hours from home in a place not accessible by train or plane with narrow visiting hours that conflict with people's work schedules, and maybe you're fighting to prevent in person visits at all, maybe you got a kickback from a company selling expensive video call visits so people can't even hug their kids when they drive 6 hours on a Wednesday to see them. Get a kickback from a phone service provider that's going to charge extortionate prices for every minute a person spends talking to their loved ones, and if the state passes a law saying you can't do that anymore, pivot and go after the mail. Subvert USPS. Get a kickback from a company that'll give prisoners shitty scans of letters or refuse to deliver it because it was flagged for drug contamination by a machine with a 70% false positive rate, force them instead to send texts at extortionate rates through their proprietary app.
Put them in an environment with a bunch of other people with social issues and force them to compete for resources. Give them no mental healthcare. If they are victimized by other prisoners, punish the victims with solitary confinement. Transfer people around so they can't form meaningful long-term friendships. Tell them that once they get out, it will be illegal for them to talk to any of the people they meet here.
Hire guards who have no qualifications other than a willingness to be a modern day slave overseer or the ignorance to not realize that's what it is, give them complete control over every aspect of other people's lives and tell them those people want to kill them and that any object can be covered in drugs so dangerous that touching them can kill. Allow the guards to traffic drugs into the prison with impunity. Have the guards discourage racial mixing because racial conflict in the prison means the prisoners won't join up against the staff.
You do all of this and you ask if a 20-year-old, who's been in the system since 14, is emotionally mature or psychologically healthy enough to choose to risk their life in exchange for slightly better living arrangements.
You take someone who has probably made some bad decisions, right? And you put them in a place where every detail of every day is decided for them: what they eat, when they eat, when they sleep, where they sleep, what clothes they wear, who they talk to, where they work. Or maybe you give them big decisions that have no right answer. Maybe at the start of the day, you open the cells and they have 10 minutes to decide if they want to be stuck in their cell all day - no shower, no recreation, no library - or go outside and be stuck in genpop all day - no napping, no alone time, no escape if someone is hassling you. You let them decide if they're going to eat breakfast at 3am (because there's too many meal shifts) or sleep in and spend their precious commissary funds on toaster strudel (they have no toaster) or sleep in and not eat even though you're barely giving them 1000 calories a day. You let them start to make decisions about how to spend their day, then you put them on lockdown, take all those decisions away.
You do all this and then you ask if anyone who's spent time in this environment has the decision-making skills to choose to risk their life in exchange for slightly better living arrangements.
All of the incarcerated firefighters in California are 18 or older, and all of them volunteered, but there is no world in which they were adequately prepared to make that decision.

Have you ever thought that Dick might have some kinda of eating disorder?
Like, not something like anorexia or vigorexia, it's not that he has a goal and that's why he distorts his diet. It is more of an unconscious thing, but it still becomes an eating disorder because he has no control over it.
Let me explain what I mean-
Dick simply forgets to eat.
When he's deeply involved in a case, we know he's even capable of not sleeping for days (this is canon). Who says he probably doesn't remember to eat either?
This becomes a kind of cycle in the long run.
Dick simply doesn't eat, and that causes him to either lose the sensation of hunger afterwards, or on the contrary, eat more than usual. When he overeats, he doesn't do something extreme like purposely avoid the next meal, but he does try to stay active to burn calories (he needs to be fit), and this causes him to forget to feed himself again until he simply has no energy left, so it's a cycle.
Plus, who says he's probably not on a sugar rush 24/7? It has sometimes been seen that he probably lives on sweets and coffee when he's too busy nor too tired to cook by himself.
The batfamily doesn't realize this, at least not at first.
Everyone has stopped by Dick's apartment, and he always cooks for everyone. He never seems to be short of something to cook, it's rare, and he usually says it before they mention anything, so it's obvious that he knows what he has and what he doesn't have in his kitchen.
Plus, this guy has been living alone since he was 16, if he hasn't starved to death and is still fit it's because he knows how to take care of his diet, right?
There is no clue that anyone would suspect that he has a poor diet, right?
Yes... No.
It's not particularly serious, but it's still not healthy.
And it's not until one of his friends asks if he ate anything after their last outing (over 48 hours ago), and he says he completely forgot about it, that they realize something is wrong there.
Suddenly, the whole family is asking routine questions about his diet, and now the problem isn't whether he's eating or not, but whether he's lying about it or not.
(if you like Dick's HC of him having ADHD, this becomes 60-70% more likely to occur, (we neurodivergents don't know what it means to have a healthy eating schedule.))

A Scottish research team believe they may have produced the "holy grail" alternative to palm oil. It is estimated that almost half of all food and cosmetic products on supermarket shelves contain palm oil. The huge demand has led to significant deforestation in areas where oil palm trees can grow near the equator. Food experts at Queen Margaret University (QMU) in Edinburgh say their new 100% plant-based ingredient is 70% better for the environment. And with 80% less saturated fat and 30% fewer calories, they are also hailing PALM-ALT as a significantly healthier option. Catriona Liddle, one of the lead developers on the QMU team, said: "It's the holy grail to replace it and still have exactly the same end result in product - to taste the same and have the texture the same - and we've done that.

Tuesday Tidbits:
~One minute of passionate kissing burns 6.4 calories. (Pucker up😘).
~A tiny, male marsupial in Australia, has sex for up to 12 hours straight. The exhausted males drop dead shortly after. (I'm all for being an overachiever, but this seems counterproductive). 😬😜
~70% of people surveyed said they lied on their resumes. 37% of those people admitted to lying at work frequently. 👀🤥
~Exercise improves brain performance & helps you sleep better. 🧠🏋️ #fact
~A female orgasm can burn between 60-100 calories, where male orgasms only burn 3-5. (Raise your hand, ladies, if you want to drop some calories). 🙋😂
~Men & women who perform oral sex on their partners are healthier & happier than those who don't. (I've been saying this for years). 🤣🤷
~It costs nothing to be kind. ✌️💜🖤✌️
Have a fabulous Tuesday & don't forget to laugh a little!

What’s the behaviour of salutachin dogs like, and how analogous to irl small breed(?presuming) pet dogs? Do they have a particular cultural position beyond just a utilitarian one as livestock?
Here's what a salutachin looks like
Tumblr media
(This one is a neutered male fattened for eating, one on a more natural diet would have a distinctly sloping chest).
They have by far the most standardized look of any dog type in this region due to strict prevention of breeding with other dogs, and the meat dog type altogether being saved from the extinction from a relatively small gene pool. Almost all have a fawn coloration with a melanistic mask, pointed ears, a long curving tail, and a fairly compact build. Typically, only the males are eaten, any that will not be used as studs are neutered at a young age for better meat quality.
There's no outright companion breed here (this might be a retcon), dogs kept strictly as companions tend to be hunting dog types (or sometimes adopted from friendly street/village dogs). Contemporary hunting dog types developed primarily through breeding the greyhound-esque Burri hunting dog with the a Somewhat basenji-esque native ancestor. The latter type has been almost completely driven extinct via breeding (some more intact descendants exist in isolation, but not enough that a breeding population can be formed), and the salutachin is actually its closest relative and physically resembles it.
So like they're very different. The average pet/hunting dog today can look like pretty much anything on a spectrum between Hippiti and a chin-tsimouna (though is usually going to be smaller than the latter, which is a grouping of big LGD types. A hunting dog's weight is going to be anywhere between 40-70 lbs on average).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These hunting/companion dogs generally have experienced selective breeding for traits useful in hunting (and have high prey drives), responsiveness to human commands, and human sociability, but their personalities can vary as much as any other dog.
Whereas the salutachin is fairly small (a fattened animal can hit 40 lbs, one with a natural diet would be in the 20-30 lb range). They need to be Comfortable around humans, but have experienced little selective pressure for human sociability or responsiveness to commands. They're kept in enclosed pastures (often among other livestock) and have low prey drives, and tend to be friendly and mesh well with other dogs.
If you adopted a salutachin as a pet, it Could be an okay companion animal if you socialize and train it well, but it will be a very difficult dog to train to begin with. Most are not going to be particularly cuddly or playful with humans. It will also be likelier to develop fear-aggression behavioral issues in general, particularly if it's kept without other dogs. It would be more dangerous than average around children without careful socialization and introductions.
The salutachin is the only remnant of a much wider span of meat dog types. Several developed partly or wholly independently. The people who first settled here brought dogs with them, which probably would have been eaten opportunistically but not as a standard practice. The animals had utility as assistants in hunting and herding, and guarding livestock/villages/homes/children.
The practice of very intentional rearing of dogs for meat probably started with eating unneeded offspring of your working dogs around weaning age, then keeping them longer for a larger carcass. Taboos surrounding consumption of meat eaters appear to be Very ancient and nearly ubiquitous (though varied in their nuances) to all proto-Wardi groups, and dogs destined for consumption post-weaning were probably fed on vegetarian diets from very early on (both rendering them clean for consumption, and also improving the flavor). Outright FATTENING a dog on plant matter requires use of the higher calorie plants vital for human survival, so this practice took hold most strongly in groups that adopted settled agriculture that could generate enough excess to warrant this.
These groups would have developed more in-depth cultural practices surrounding this. No other livestock is fed this way, these dogs are special in warranting the sacrifice of food needed for the human community. These dogs would start to become distinct, no longer just excess animals that you might as well eat, but a wholly separate stock. 'Dog used for meat' becomes a distinct Type of dog rather than merely a Use for a dog. This is the beginning of a genetically distinct and semi-isolated line of livestock dogs (though this can only go so far in a world without spaying). And putting all this investment into an animal purely destined for slaughter (offering no milk or wool) contributed to them sometimes having special statuses where they occurred. (Though this was not ubiquitous, in some cases they would have just been a source of tasty meat and ascribed the baseline cultural value of any livestock).
Historically, this special status appears to have mostly surrounded funerary practices. Some older proto-Wardi cremain graves (mostly those in the west) would have the skeletons of dogs with clear evidence of butchery, they would have been killed at funerals so that their spirits can guide the dead, and then eaten (rather than cremated themselves, as is the practice for contemporary funerary guide dogs). Old effigies of neutered male dogs (heavily suggesting them to be livestock) appear to have been used as spiritual guardians for children, and the dogs themselves may have done this work as well prior to being harvested.
The historical record for dog eating is most complete for the Wardinae tribe, who did not use them for funerals but rather as sacrificial offerings at weddings in hopes of securing the newlywed's fortune and fertility. The Wardinae developed their meat dogs semi-independently, and they started out as individuals selected from the hunting dog landrace stock to be reared exclusively for this purpose. This tribe's early history (post-separation from the Cholemdinae) was tumultuous and a struggle for survival- they were a small group of semi-nomadic but seasonally settled agriculturalists, constantly under threat by more established and populous settled agriculturalists and almost wiped out more than once. The high investment of good grain into these dogs for the relatively small reward of One 35ish lb carcass made them one of the best offerings there was in this context, it was a pure giving-back of a bounty they struggled to maintain. Offering it in sacrifice suggested hope for the future, that all this investment was not in vain. In this spirit, it was perfect for a wedding. Unlike most sacrifices in the contemporary religion, these were eaten (though the flesh was exclusively reserved for the newlyweds, and much of the usable parts of the carcass would have been wholly given up in offering).
The importance of this dog diminished with the Wardinae eventually becoming quite powerful and established themselves. These dogs gradually became livestock rather than special individual offerings, and began to be bred separately from the hunting dogs from which they derived. They still retained utility as sacrificial offerings and as a fixture of wedding feasts, but their significance diminished in league with the diminishing gravity of this investment of nutrients.
The concept of at least some (if not all) dogs being spiritually unclean animals, or at the very least unsuitable for eating, is fairly old. Not all proto-Wardi groups or other native peoples here had this practice to begin with. Imperial Burri occupation (specifically the Second period of occupation) is what ultimately killed the practice throughout most of its range. Dog meat (and those of some other specific animals) was regarded as inherently unclean and its consumption and sale was outright banned. The fact that most proto-Wardi societies already considered at least Some dogmeat unclean (and the fact that dog was never a staple by any means) made this more easily accepted than other imposed dietary bans (horsemeat and milk was also considered unclean in the Imperial Burri sphere, the attempted bans of which were significantly more devastating and fought more intensely).
In this process, a lot of meat dog lineages went extinct (or rather reintegrated into the dog gene pool at large). Those who used these dogs as funerary guides could still sacrifice A dog without eating it. Some people of course continued this practice in secret, but it became more difficult, and the stock became more diluted (and thus inappropriate to eat even under purely native food taboos). The practice gradually died out throughout most of the region.
It survived in South Wardin largely due to the Wardinae tribe's special favoring of the dog as food for weddings. The practice was carried on in secret at very large scales, enough that a small and (mostly) undiluted breeding population could be maintained throughout this time, and could rebound once this prohibition was lifted. The salutachin is derived from these dogs.
It's still a mainstay for South Wardi weddings in the present day. It is no longer used as an animal sacrifice (the best blessing of a wedding is offering a yearling cow who has never been bred or yoked to Ganmache), but still carries connotations of celebrating life and expressing a hope for the couple's future. It's just that it's largely lost the reason Why these connotations exist to begin with, it's kind of just a Thing You Eat At Weddings To Celebrate The Future.
All this aside, it's also considered a delicacy and very tasty to most palates. It's tender and very fatty dark meat, kept from being all that gamey due to the animal's vegetarian diet and the male dog being neutered. It's mostly consumed roasted fresh or aged, and can also be cured and smoked like a ham.
The only provinces in which it is eaten (at a more than incidental scale) is Wardin and Erubinnos, and it's somewhat of a source of Imperial Wardi intracultural tension and sniping. The western provincial subculture has significantly stronger taboos against All dog meat, and a lot of people there consider salutachin eating to be an unfavorable relic from heathen times, with some decrying it as an outright ''barbaric'' practice that should be eliminated. Having the latter opinion very strongly is a bit of an outlier (most will concede that a dog of pure stock fed EXCLUSIVELY on plants is not technically an unclean meat, but like, GrossYucky) but this divide has been known to make some weddings reallllll awkward.

Grim to see how much of a stranglehold diet culture still has on my 75 yr old coworker - she's got the fancy watch to track her steps, she tells me every week how many calories she burns swimming every day, on saturdays she only eats salads. And it might sound mean, but.. Lisa. If it hasn't worked yet it won't work now. The body you have is doing a fine job. You're 75, and this is still what your life is built around? This is the crowning achievement you want before you die?
I just want to be a size 4 for once in my life, she says.
I do believe that with age a lot of us let go of a lot of our little preoccupations and worries and such, but that's not really guaranteed - and not really very profitable for diet culture to be something you can age out of. Better to keep selling people the idea that if they just try harder, they can spend the last few years of their lives on this earth trying to once and for all be small enough, before they die. And I know, I know, I am extremely aware how it becomes a self-inscribed obsession, a system of personal surveillance, a set of choices that feel utterly yours - I'm doing this for myself. I'm not buying into anything. I just *want* this. I am also familiar with the sunk cost fallacy of it all - 70 years of failing at diets, but what if this is the one? Who am I to say she doesn't have to live like this, when after all this time and effort, how can she admit defeat now? All I know is I don't want to live like this. I've already given it a lot of years. I can't give it the rest of my life.
