#and lactose

[half-oz-eddie]

It's a rainy afternoon. Billy and Steve order Starbucks through doordash, but Starbucks fucks up their order.

The coffee looks good, so they agree to drink it anyway, but a sudden thought creeps up on Steve.

"Oh god, if this is the wrong coffee, that means they might have used the wrong ingredients."

Steve impulsively slaps Billy's cup out of his hand.

"Why the fuck did you do that?!" Billy shouts as the coffee spills all over the hardwood floor.

"Because you're lactose intolerant and I don't know if they used oat milk!"

"Oh my god, you know I don't care about that shit!"

"But I care about you!" Steve argues. "I love you. I also don't want you farting in bed all night."

Billy angrily glares at Steve, then snatches his coffee and takes a huge sip. "I'm gonna fart in your face." He says as he sets Steve's cup down and walks away.

"N-no! No you're not! Go take some lactase enzymes! Billy! I'm serious!"

i want to take the time to talk about a series of disabilities that no one takes seriously or even recognizes as a disability, which is food intolerances, and allergies. if a person can get sick if they eat the wrong foods, they are disabled, as this illness will make them unable to function all because they ate the wrong food. it's not okay to guilt someone for seeking foods that won't injure them.

in 2022, i began to lose my ability to digest land meats (pork, chicken, cow, etc.), animal milks, and eggs. it started slowly but quickly progressed to every type of land meat. i am only able to digest seafood, plants, nuts, seeds safely without becoming horribly sick. i tried to buy cow's milk because it is cheaper recently and became so ill it was genuinely traumatic. i have never been that sick in my life before. i cannot safely ingest cow's milk, the cheaper option, because it will injure me for several days or even weeks at a time. this happens to me with all land meats as well.

i cannot eat eggs. i cannot fried rice that has egg, i cannot eat most sauces like mayo or ranch dressing because of their high egg content. i cannot eat anything dressed in mayo as a sauce. anything that is baked or brushed or washed with egg is a risk. my digestive system really hates eggs in particular and they are inescapable.

people who can't digest or process lactose, gluten, meats, seafood, eggs, nuts, seeds, beans, fiber, certain fats, proteins or sugars don't have their needs considered very often, nor taken seriously, especially when that person is poor. people with digestive issues need to be able to eat foods that don't hurt us- it's not our faults that alternative milks, breads, pizzas, snacks, sauces, dips, spreads, meats and more are significantly more expensive. we still need to be able to eat foods that don't harm us regardless of how much money we make.

I love Jamil just outright refusing to eat the food and then you have Kalim suffering in silence and eating because he's too nice

I don’t care if his bones are hollow, he’s calcium deficient.

No amount of love in his bones will save him from the lactose intolerant allegations

I was thinking about how the show explained that when you make a wish, essentially the old world you lived in is erased and they make a new world centered around your wish.

BUT what if the kwami ACTUALLY destroy the world??

And I just wanted to draw a dramatic apocalyptic scene ahahahahha

I applied it to a silly platonic/step-siblings Lady Noire and Mister Bug AU I dreamed about literally last night.

the hardest part of the job is breaking the news that lactose intolerance is more permanent than death

[beeqisch]

people who grew up drinking dairy milk and switched to non-dairy later in life: ugh almond milk is so thin and watery, I accept coconut milk or cashew milk only!

me, who grew up drinking rice milk: almond milk is almost TOO flavorful and rich, wow
