kinda frustrating how we've spent the last few months acknowledging how a lot of well intentioned but guilt trippy social justice posts are like specifically designed to worm into ocd ppls brains and then now every single post abt palestine is "i dont care how bad your mental health is, i dont care how bad looking at all this makes you feel, if you don't read every single post you see on this topic in full you are a horrible person and directly contributing to their deaths. 'waaaah my mental health' well at least youre not being bombed, did you think about that??" and its like. i absolutely get where youre coming from but you dont get to complain that guilt tripping is bad then turn around and use it anyways because you think the cause youre using it for is worthwhile. like. everyone thinks the cause theyre using it for is worthwhile, thats why theyre using it. but its still a shit way to do it

#like when you make a tumblr post to your tumblr blog youre not guilt tripping people who disagree with you #youre guilt tripping your followers who if theyre still following you probably already agree with what youre saying #and esp on a topic with so much brutality involved like. yeah OBVIOUSLY theres people who have to look away #like. yall know a bunch of these posts and articles and videos show graphic injuries in them right?#like i physically cant watch news videos abt this bc i will spend days with my brain making me imagine #peoples deaths in graphic detail specifically because it knows that will upset me. and i would prefer not to do that #in fact me doing that helps palestinians exactly as much as finishing my brussel sprouts helps starving kids #by which i mean none. its just a cheap guilt trip to get you to do something you don't want to #which when it's brussel sprouts thats whatever but when its 'deliberately expose yourself to extremely triggering #things otherwise youre a bad person'. not so much #idk i feel like maybe its due to ppl feeling. agitated abt not being able to do anything abt it #like the government isnt listening and we're a world away so physically /all/ we can do really is sit and watch #so i can understand a) wanting to find someone to lash out at to alleviate that feeling #like if you cant stop the actual problem at the very least you can shout down the people supporting it right?#and b) seeing 'not watching' or even just 'not watching as closely as i am' as a transgression #bc well its all we can do so if youre not even doing that you must be bad #and its like. i really do get it. but the whole world is watching right now‚ like this is THE big news thing happening rn #so a few people choosing to avoid to subject will not make a single iota of difference #idk. i guess what im saying is if youre feeling the urge to yell at someone for not looking close enough #just donate some money to a support fund instead itll do a lot more

Eating my overnight oats rn and they’re so good so here is my recipe go forth and eat oats like a horse

The first step is to have fun and be yourself. The second step is to ignore everything I say and do whatever you want cause there are no rules <3

The overnight part:

⅓ cup oats

⅓ cup milk (I buy a different kind of milk / nut milk every time I’m at the store cause I’m not a milk drinker and don’t know what’s best but rn I have an almond/coconut mix and it’s really good)

⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt (if no yogurt or you don’t like it have a second ⅓ cup of milk)

1 large spoonful of jam

1 spoonful of peanut butter

Optional: 1 spoonful of seeds (I have sesame rn but other good ones are chia, sunflower, etc.)

Optional: a bit of honey or sugar if your prev ingredients aren’t that sweet

Optional: extra fruit and berries

^ mix the above and let it sit overnight. I find it lasts about 4 days, I make 3 servings Sunday night and try to eat them by Wednesday, then make more Wednesday night.

When you eat it top with:

A few spoonfuls of granola and nuts of choice

Extra fresh or frozen fruit

It’s fun to add more toppings right before you eat it so they aren’t soggy and they get a different texture, but you can always add them with the other stuff

Generally keep the rule of 1 part oats to 2 parts milk/liquid/yogurt. Most recipes online use ½ cups instead of ⅓ but I found that was more than I needed.

If you want to customize it, the best way I’ve found is changing up the peanut butter, the second ⅓ cup of milk/yogurt, and the fruit/jam. The absolute best version of the above I made was using ⅓ cup homemade applesauce, extra cinnamon/nutmeg, and cookie butter instead of peanut butter 😳 it is so good it was like eating a milkshake for breakfast lol

If you make overnight oats PLEASE TELL ME YOUR FAVORITE TOPPINGS AND ADD INS ✨

#the few months I’ve been like a scientist in the kitchen trying different amounts of things and finding what works for me #I have a few more flavors I want to try but haven’t had the opportunity #I wanna do eggnog overnight oats with cranberries but need to use up my current milk #the other I really wanna do is making them with milk tea and adding boba on top instead of fruit #it’s like that brussel sprout image. people who want the overnight oats to be healthy VS me who wants them to fuck like hell #fun talk tag #recipe

this dynamic between me and my teacher is getting really funny

#we were yapping to each other all of dinner #but then she had to yap at me because i (teenage athlete type) got 2 meals basically and she (60 year old) got a side of brussels sprouts #i was like fuck shes gonna be waiting while im finishing my food i better eat quick #did this make me look like more of a clown. maybe #she seems happy that i can coach myself wrt spelling because she would obviously rather be in europe and not teaching #i cant count the number of times shes brought up like. paris or norway today #oh and like half the restaurant was staring at me as i was walking out bc i didnt have a hand for my carabiner (VERY LOUD)#so i was like. jingling across the floor with my takeout box 🚶‍♂️#also shes more directionally challenged than my brother so im the one who has to remember where the car is

I’m such a culinary genius I just pickled some radish and I didn’t even look up a recipe . well I looked up how to pickle stuff but I didn’t look at any measurements 💪💪💪💪

#i think it needed more sugar in the jar and I probably could have added some water with the vinegar but #I’m just happy I hashtag did that #but now I have so much stuff I was making and have to eat jt all. the hummus from this weekend I will make into pasta sauce tomorrow I think #and then my mom gave me some Brussel sprouts that are going bad so I have to Cooke those up too #gwon

I'm so happy tastes change when you get older

#i love dr pepper now #kid me hated it #maybe i should try other things kid me hated #like black licorice #... that's all i can think of #i like onions mushrooms and tomato now. kid me didn't #and i still dislike broccoli and brussel sprouts #they both have very strong flavours that i find unpleasant #they used to make me throw up #my gag reflex isn't as sensitive anymore but sometimes i still gag #i also just find broccoli kinda seeps into whatever else it's cooked with #i cant really enjoy the other parts of the dish if broccoli was ever involved because it becomes the only thing i can taste #idk 🤷‍♂️ it's 4am and i accidentally made myself nocturnal #so you get strange ramblings

I have the desire to write yet have no idea what to write

I also htink I'm coming down with something and if I wrote anything right now it would probably be at least somewhat incomprehensible

#not writing #i am a sickly Victorian child ok i catch every sickness #im also somewhat agitated bc the entire house smells like brussels sprouts #which is a scent that irritates me for some reason #my nose is sensitive #but not in a cool way to where i can be a wine taster like my cousin #but in a way that just makes me unable to use my face wash anymore bc i think it smells like vomit #snom unrelated #i just thought i needed to put an image on the post and didnt have anything very relevant #sorry

#brought to you by me seeing a post about brussel sprouts a second ago #unrelated but i hate when my period starts on a weekend when i planned to get a bunch of work done #I'll have to make myself get up early tomorrow to finish all I wanted to do today #at least it started over the weekend and not on a monday like last month #mia posts a thing

I ate a lot of really yummy brussel sprouts last night and over 30 hours later my digestive system is still sososo soo mad at me :(

#the bloat is UNRELENTING!!!#the burping is FREQUENT!!#i have taken so much 'gas relief' meds at this point and it doesnt seem to do anything!#the most luck ive had is with drinking coke to make myself burp more! and it only helps for a moment!!#brussel sprouts why have you betrayed me so.....
