love and happiness something that can make you do wrong make you do right

Tbh I think just saying “increased appetite” on change lists with T truly doesn’t tell you just how much. So I’m gonna tell you how much for ppl considering starting T

A fucking lot. A “I’ve had an appetite-related eating disorder for years that I barely struggle with since starting T” lot. I am not kidding you will have so much of an appetite. You will be so hungry. Its genuinely incredible

And obviously it’s different for everyone but I just need ppl thinking of starting T to understand they are not fucking around when they say your appetite will increase. T makes you so hungry you will eat so much. Trust me on this please. Learn to make some nice filling meals, find fun ways to cook veggies, get some meat

I'm glad catholics got to read the locked tomb as a catholic book, but I read it as a biologist, and everything was about biology to me. From genetics to ecology, about climate change and research grants, and most importantly, manipulation of live and used-to-be-live matter.

So @suburbanbeatnik, you asked me for a recipe, this is from Carême's 'Art of French Cuisine' translated into English by William Hall, and I need to stress that this would have been one dish amongst many.

This is a gratitude post. I’m not gonna lie, the last few days prior to today were really bad. We still don’t have food money, and don’t know when we’ll get it, and y’all have helped a lot but we can’t just blow all that money at once. So we’ve been focusing on feeding the kids and making sure we all get a decently filling dinner. But I was in a bad way. Sad because I felt like a failure, but also fucking hangry. I require three meals a day to thrive—they don’t have to be large, but they DO have to be nutrient-dense, and a handful of stale tortilla chips for two meals a day really wasn’t cutting it. And in order to feed all four of us dinner for cheap(er), we’ve been focusing on pre-packaged, pre-processed foods, so my body was crying out for something fresh. Well, here’s where the gratitude comes in. Due to help from people on Tumblr, and a neighbor hiring me to walk their dogs once a day for a few days, and a different neighbor giving me a bunch of veggies from her garden—I was able to actually make a good day of food for myself and the family. We had berry and yogurt smoothies for breakfast, I had a big salad for lunch, and we had grilled veggie and shrimp kabobs with rice for dinner. I genuinely feel so much better than I have in days.

I didn't finish Carol vs The World because it lost me with how we never get to see Carol question why she finds comfort in a deeply pointless job or address what that means. I wanted to like the show because it has a middle aged cast of characters that look realistically ordinary too.

I watched like 3 episodes and then went and read the synopsis of the other episodes, watched a video summarizing the season and read reviews.

I really liked the character and background design, the characters themselves are okay, but I can't get past the world building or the weird takeaway it has.

I can't say this any other way: I think the creators of this show can't imagine how people would exist outside of capitalism. Characters have two choices: to live the rest of their life in an individualistic hedonistic way, or to continue with their boring jobs. This is not different at all from how people in capitalism live. It makes me feel like the writers think people do these boring jobs because they find comfort in them, or that they don't know what they want from life, and they need a "distraction" from that. (I can imagine that there are people who are content with doing a job like this, but not for these reasons) I feel like writers often use this trope condescendingly. People don't do boring office jobs because they lack motivation and fantasy, it's because they need money to live and most jobs suck.

I think Carol's problem is not that she is a simple person who doesn't want much, but that she is lonely. And the show does say that in the end it's the bond between people that is important, and to enjoy everyday little moments, but if instead of idk, Carol talking to her neighbors they make a point out of showing that these characters enjoy doing pointless work for a faceless corporation. If the job supposed to symbolize a simpler life, well. i don't like that

there could have been some kind of critique of society here! but instead the show goes "if you are depressed and you don't find fulfillment in superficial hedonism that you are told you should enjoy, the alternative is that you can do pointless tasks while becoming friends with your coworkers :)" like what. sure i'll happily slave away my life for a corporation, not even knowing why, and i'll be happy about it. I don't think the idea that work could be fulfilling, for example that they could be doing something for other people's comfort or happiness ever comes up. most characters including Carol act selfishly. why did she fail to find friends up until the point of working in that office. i think this show is fake deep. sorry for the rant I just feel like there is wasted potential here

One thing about disco elysium is that I wish it let u feed ur guy. He’s really going thru it you know? He lost his memory, I’m forcing him to be TOTALLY sober and also to question the moral basis of his career. Everyone he talks to is either hates him cause he’s a cop (correctly) OR only respects him because he’s a cop (embarrassingly). I should be able to buy him a chocolate bar!!! there are random pills scattered around the streets but not a bag of crisps??? Why can I ask ppl for a cigarette but not order a sandwich from the hostel im staying in. WHERE is the apple of +1 health.

It's perfect that Uraume is Sukuna's chef (and bestie). Their ice powers work to keep meat fresh.

i'm a big supporter of the 'they should just do longer sets' school of thought (24/25 songs ideally) BUT i'm an even bigger supporter of the idea that along with a longer set they should also do something along the lines of what taylor swift is doing with the eras tour - and that is, play the main setlist with all the classics (and maybe also focusing a bit more on the car) + one or two surprise songs that change every night. now i know many people here love talking shit about ts but regardless of whether you like her/her music or not, i think that's actually a great move to keep the audience entertained and constantly on the edge of their seats, especially when it comes to artists like am with such wide (and amazing) discographies and so many "niche" songs that deserve to have their moment too

Oh oh oh at Costco I found a big bag of soup dumplings (not gluten free unfortunately) and I really like them but I'm used to Trader Joe's which have a lot of ginger in them so I'm kind of missing that but that's okay because they'll still make a yummylicious after pool snackie
