Garak would definitely make those clay vases,so it would be cool if you drew him
truly wish I know which vases you were referring to. but this did coincide neatly with my newly retired mom's pottery obsession. we cannot even begin to fathom how many weird hobbies garak's going to try once he's softly forced to retire. he's going to make so many god damn pots
#dee s 9#every week i talk to my dad and hes like.... she brought home 5 more bowls. and a mug#i think he'd enjoy doing a bit of pottery. doing hand work. repetitive and tactile.#weirdly intimate. fleshlike? wet. but messy.#thinking about it i feel like pottery would be a good Cardassian Art. hot. metallic. earthy. lots of alcoholic beverages needing containers#bashir in a LEGALIZE POT shirt and no visitors think anything of it other than mild confusion#why would anyone illegalize pots. decorative amphora are one of cardassia's ubiquitous functional decoration pieces

I just glimpsed the lockscreen of a girl on the train and it literally just says “NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS SKINNY FEELS” and I am suddenly reminded that I live in a very different dimension of thought than other people
#i think she may be in crisis??? like girl? do you need help?#nothing tastes as good as skinny feels what fucking mindfuckery bullshit#have you ever eaten a meal made by someone who loves you#have you ever been to a community function where somebody brought brownies just because#have you ever had a cold sweet beverage on a scorching summer day?#miss me with that self hating fatphobic bullshit

on that last rb's note: some of these boycotts are not easy. a majority of my already-few safe foods are on the list. grocery shopping has been hard — it's already hard for me on a normal day — and it's only gotten worse as the boycott list grows. but i am still doing it. and you should still be doing it. you should still be trying, even when it's hard. free palestine.
#i just wanted to clarify my stance because yeah for some people a starbucks boycott IS hard#now that all big brand sodas are off limits im struggling to find alternatives#i know its pathetic and unhealthy blah blah blah i get it but i live off of mtn dew bc its one of the few fruity-rather-than-cola-y#caffeinated beverages out there. im absolute trash at drinking water. and if i dont have caffeine i am barely functional#but that pales in comparison to anything happening in palestine so i have to figure my shit out. not easy =/= not worthwhile#hope this is clear that its aimed at ppl who are struggling w boycotting but encouraging them to keep it up (or start again if they caved)#used to get mcdonalds frequently but i stopped w the boycott and you can too! i believe in you#txtly#also. if you're reading this and you start to get mad at me for whatever reason#before replying or sending me an anon i ask you to read the post at least twice more ok? ok thank you bye

I know posts aren’t written with a universal audience in mind and that when people make posts like this they are probably not talking to me but
I HATE posts that are phrased to talk to everyone and say shit like “you NEED to be eating X”
shut up! you do not know a persons needs. just saw one that even went so far as to say they didn’t care if a person has a condition that makes it hard. shut up shut up! things that are healthy for most people are not necessarily good for everyone! like. my body does not tolerate cellulose. it makes me throw up. I can only tolerate vegetables in very specific circumstances, and I’m even then I will, not might, WILL, throw up part of the meal. I also receive premade meals in the mail as a disability accommodation. These meals are inevitably designed to cater to the Healthy Diet For Everyone. and as a result, I can’t eat like half of every single one because it’s steamed vegetables that will make me sick. nothing I can even do about it. it’s not possible to receive medical meals for MY medical needs. not to mention all the other stuff they send me that is prohibited for me (whole grain bread —I’m on a low fiber diet. milk —lactose intolerant. pineapple fruit/juice —allergic. tomatoes…allergic again.)
idk man it is an active problem in my life that everything presumes there is only one way to be healthy. I’m so sick of dealing with it. I DONT want to see it on tumblr too! leave nutrition advice to people’s doctors!!!
#rant#disability#actually disabled#actual diet advice from MY doctors that actually know me:#low fiber (GI specialist) high sodium (cardiologist and geneticist) drink lemonade instead of water (urologist)#reduce vegetable consumption (GI) drink high calorie beverages to supplement calorie intake (GI)#the only ‘normal’ advice was to avoid large amounts of fat#which I do because it makes me as sick as the vegetables#stop presuming you know what’s good for people!#I watch my bf do caretaker training videos to hired to care for me and the nutrition and meal planning section was all the same shit#I cannot express enough that if you try to make me live on high fiber and meals that are half steamed veggies with water to drink and#no salt#I will become malnourished#I will throw up so much that I lose weight and lose cognitive function#I will start collapsing whenever I stand up#and I will become so bloated that I only try to eat once a day#I know this because I’ve been there already due to stupid doctors that tried to shove me into a one size fits all diet#it was the most miserable time of my life#toward the end I was only able to stomach cups of tuna#i developed an aversion to eating in general bc I had linked the act of eating with being sick#I lost like 30 pounds in two months#sorry if I take the subject a little personal

You’ve heard of shower beer, but may I interest you in shower Ensure MAX PROTEIN Nutrition Shake
#I am not normally a protein bro#(though I have been one at various times#most notably Operation Get Huge Summer 2k19 when I paid a personal trainer to 'make it so when they hit me I don't move'#and it worked--I went from benchwarmer to main rotation FOR TWO GLORIOUS MONTHS BEFORE THE PANDEMIC ENDED MY DERBY CAREER)#but during high mileage blocks I am one out of necessity#and I wasn't getting enough from food and I am too lazy to make my own shakes#(I know running high mileage does not sound lazy but actually once you are doing it running takes less executive function than anything else#because your usual distractions are not there and you just do the same thing the whole time and don't have to remind yourself how)#so Ensure it is!#I expect beverages with 30 grams of protein to taste nasty but it just tastes like regular chocolate milk#'lazy' is with an asterisk. ykwim
