hey john, whats your favorite taste? or smell? or activity to do? lot of misinformation on tumblr about this and i want the truth

Hi, pissbong. Thank you for your questions.

My favorite taste is coffee, especially coffee that donates 100% of its profits to battling the global maternal mortality crisis.

My favorite smell is freshly ground coffee beans sourced directly from small farmers' collectives in Colombia.

My favorite activity is reading about the history of human responses to tuberculosis. The ways we symbolize illness have such a profound effect on the ways we understand and treat illness. Can we even REALLY say that the 100 million people who died of TB between 1951 and 2022 died as a result of tuberculosis?

For all that time, TB was usually curable and could also frequently be prevented through safe housing conditions and adequate nutrition. And so is TB *actually* caused by a bacteria, or is it actually caused by the injustice baked in to human-built systems that value some lives over others, and do not accept that universal access to healthcare, housing, and nutrition must be acknowledged as human rights?
