The Astrology of a WAG

I'm only going to use the charts of women who were/are in long-term relationships/marriages with athletes. 

One thing I noticed was a lot of air and earth placements (specifically Gemini and Virgo) with that I took Mercury (rules public relations), into account. Sports is ruled by the planet Mars, so Mars plays a role in a lot of the women's charts as well.

Common traits:

Aries placements

Earth or Air sign in the Sun, Moon, Rising, Mars, or Jupiter (Jupiter rules the spouse).

Moon-Mars aspects

Sun-Mars aspects

Jupiter-Mars aspects

Mercury aspecting personal planets/Jupiter

A lot of Scorpio (Scorpio's original planet is Mars) and Pisces placements.

Fixed and Mutable signs

Other placements can play a role: Mercury or Mars (or one of the common signs) in the 1H, 2H, 7H, or 8H.

[anxiousberrybunny]

Breakfast: wasa crackers with dairy free strawberry cream cheese and my moms gooseberry jam, sliced pineapple with prosciutto. So freaking good and only 207cal

Snack: bowl of rainier cherries and 8oz fresh oj 225cal

Lunch: cauliflower rice with my moms curry lentil soup, about 200cal, could be more as I'm not exactly sure on the ingredients

Dinner: cup of skinny pop white cheddar, 1 tbsp roasted sunflower seeds, 1 tbsp low sugar dried cranberries, 1 serving vanilla gerber puffs. 198cal

Idk today was a weird food day. I was so hungry once I got home from work and had breakfast, which was amazing omg, and then I was insanely starving before lunch. I thought I was going to binge like crazy and I didn't know how to stop myself. I had my lunch pretty early too but then I've just been too tired to eat for the rest of the day. It might be due to the lower cal intake. My job is very active and today was just 4 hours of basically weight lifting and 4 miles of walking before I ate but still. I feel weird today.

[warmcozyblanketz]

1. take a hot shower

2. eat some soup and drink some tea (in a cozy robe if available)

3. rest (preferably with a heated blanket if available and tolerated) ❤️

*keep a juice (Oj, Apple) or hydrator (I use liquid iv) nearby to sip on in between naps

Soups:

- I make crockpot soups, but they can be made on the stove too, just bring to a boil on medium-high heat then let simmer for ~20-30 min on low to medium heat. For crockpot, I do 3 hours on high or 6 hours on medium.

Chicken Noodle: Throw in some* chicken, chicken broth, carrots, zucchini, garlic, italian seasoning, salt & pepper. Set crock to medium for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. Add some noodles when 10 min left.

Optional: add an onion (soup will be very oniony if made in crockpot).

*I don’t measure, I just throw in however much of each ingredient I feel like. Just make sure the broth covers the solid items.

Kale and Veggie Soup: Add a whole bunch of kale, + some carrots, onion, garlic (or garlic powder), italian seasoning, vegetable broth and (optional) chicken sausage. Sauteé the onions before adding to the crockpot for a less onion-y soup. Set crock to medium for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. Add some couscous or rice when 10 min left.

Coconut curry soup: Add vegetable or chicken broth, carrots, garlic, red peppers, coconut milk (I do 1 cup), ginger, curry powder, turmeric (optional), and chicken. Set crock to medium for 6 hours or high for 3 hours.

Teas:

For teas I boil roots (ginger, turmeric) and herbs (dried rosemary, peppermint, thyme, cinnamon) in water (~15-20 min) and strain. I find this method to help more than pre-boxed teas, but pre-boxed is great too! I also sometimes use turmeric powder or ginger juice rather than raw turmeric or ginger if I am feeling super low energy. (Just stir 1 tbsp turmeric powder or 2 tbsp ginger juice in hot water). Be aware: Turmeric can stain!

Adding lemon and honey never hurts :)

Okokok so yes it looks like there's talks of Joker 2 being a musical and before we all get too weirded out by the idea holy SHIT that actually can be so good

I mean, if the music is moreso integrated with his mindset rather than actually being a part of the world.

Joker is the only one who hears music and he's singing along and maybe even others join in and it gets super theatrical and campy but it's all just in his head you know? In reality no one is singing along with him and it's this fucked up scene with him murdering to the beat. And he probably is aware of that but sings along anyways, dances with a corpse or something. I mean come on don't tell me you wouldn't be into that?

Also, LADY GAGA???? as HARLEY???? I'm torn between punching the wall that it's not Margo Robbie and screaming in joy. The extra element of Gaga being there is just making me even MORE hopeful that this is going to be so campy and weird.

Joker 2: the Musical ft Lady Gaga is such fucking fever dream news that I'm half expecting it to be a prank. It can't be real... But I want it to be.

Today’s a Sunday...and other than poking at chores there’s *really* not anything more I can do for schoolprep&jobhunt (...and supposedly the neighbor next door “has connections” to various arts&jobjob stuff and isn’t intimidated by my refusal to work sabbaths/really not having ANY skills atm?? Um...sure. If he can network me that’d be great but not counting on that)...

...and I *finally* had a decent night’s sleep?

Then dangit I think I earned “treating” myself to working on fanfics and setting up a trial account to watch The Mandelorian. (...aaaand maybe TheWinterSoldier and Homecoming. Those weren’t exactly EVER placed onto Netflix... because that mouse is a rat. Maybe an ROUS.)

Got Blackbox, a fic rec, and treating our Twins to a birthday party (with shenanigans).

So...like. Allll the fics!!!

Feeding Barry Headcanon

“Is this a bad time to bring up my blood sugars?”

If there was one thing Bruce had to make sure he calculated for when he built the Justice League was making sure his speedster didn't go hungry. 

Money, was never the issue, the real issue came about making sure Barry had someone TO MAKE SURE he was eating enough to cope. 

On an average day, just from watching Barry consume a full 18 inch pizza by himself and a guess from looking at the details of some of the foods he’d listed online, that he and Alfred would have there hands full.

Well, more Alfred. 

Cue, Alfred. 

When Bruce explained Barry’s apatite to Alfred at first, he didn't quite see the issue, Bruce downed 3,500 calories a day most of it just proteins so, another mouth to feed wasn’t all that hard, Dick had been on the same by the time he’d hit 16. 

But when Bruce ran the simulation of Barry’s metabolism on the computer, they both began to panic. 

How was a boy his age managing to feed himself the MINIMUM of DOUBLE Bruce’s calories a day on his budget?!

Alfred came to the conclusion that unless Barry ate roughly 7,000 calories a day at minimum, he’d start losing weight. 

Bruce was in the trash in ten minutes, digging up the MacDonald's takeaway containers he’d bought Barry just that afternoon. 

He’d given the kid his card and said go. Now he sat here with the boxes of 3 Bigs Mac’s, 6 double cheeseburgers, 3 packets of large fries, 20 chicken nuggets, a black coffee, a large irn bru and 5 apple pies. That was roughly 9,087 calories from what they could add up from the nutritional info. 

That was LUNCH. That was...Barry’s minimum daily needs and only $50 out Bruce’s pocket. 

$50, was pretty much Barry’s budget for THREE days of meals not just one. 

Bruce went to argue with Barry that he needed to move in, Alfred managed to stop him. 

Barry was all grown up and had been independent for too long to allow Bruce to walk into his life and smother him. 

But something had to be done. 

It took awhile but Barry did move in with some carefully plying by Alfred and the Butler managed to start tracking his food intake.

By making sure Barry got 6 meals a day for his 7,000 calories out of Bruce’s pocket, letting Barry add the rest became routine. 

Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, Afternoon Tea, Diner and Supper, Alfred was finally back to using his cook books that had been gathering dust. 

Each meal had to have 1,160 calories and 30g or more of proteins to be any use to Barry’s development. Now, Alfred could have just given the boy a lump of cash and let him go bonkers on fast food, but the fat’s and sugars were the bigger hurdles, as much as it met his calories and his proteins in meat from burgers...it didn’t meet everything else. 

Barry’s malnutrition he found didn’t just come from the lack of food, it was the lack of the RIGHT foods. Even though Alfred balanced all six of Barry’s meals a day to cater for vitamins and such it wouldn’t be enough in places, that was where medication would have to come in, now he finds one afternoon after offering the boy some ibuprofen, that they didn’t work, his metabolism swallowed the effects in just a few minutes. Even tripling the dose, it was out of his system in just 12 minutes. That ment that to account for the speed at which his body used it’s building blocks everything had to be at least TWENTY times the rate of a normal human every day just for Barry to get a close enough dose of his nutrition. 

To put into perspective, an average male needs 500ug of Vitamin D a day, thats...30 minutes of sun. Barry, on the other hand needed over 10,000 a day just to function. Something that was easily helped with him being able to travel, a couples of hours in Australia and he’d get a solid top up, but running back ment using his powers, ment burning his body’s reserves, it was one hell of a game. Tablets, were Alfred’s go to. Ten dissolvable multi vitamin tablets in a 2 liter bottle of OJ a day and Barry was good to go, with his meals included, Alfred was glad to see Barry starting to look better after the first few months. 

Until, he wasn’t.

Going to work without breakfast, had Alfred concerned, but he had his packed brunch and lunch, he had his extra cash for snacks. To find that the lunch had only been half eaten when he came home was massive question mark.

Dinner Time...he said he wasn’t hungry and Alfred had him dragged towards the cave in just a moment. 

Just the ONE day of not eating his minimum calories and all the work that they had progressed on was fading. Barry still as much as he’d gotten off his chest about the anniversary of his mothers death, refused to eat. 

IV’s it came too then. 

Dragging the boy back upstairs, he handed him off to Bruce who situated him in his room while Alfred set about getting Barry on some IV drips.

Barry muttered on about the fuss but didn't fight Bruce keeping him in the bed as Alfred put IV catheters in both arms. 6 bags of 20% dextrose fluids wouldn’t do the job his meals should have but it would prevent him from going hypoglycemic for the rest of the day. In the mean time, Bruce set about finding his weak spot, his food weak spot. Now Barry liked a lot of food, he liked many different foods and Bruce was pretty willing to pay anything for him to eat something. 

He returned a few hours later with takeaway Chinese food , Indian Food , Italian food as well as three large pizzas, Mexican food meals, nearly every MacDonald's burger, Fried Chicken bucket meals, Kebabs, 48 Krispy Kreme Dounuts, nine different 12 inch sub sandwiches, Frozen meals from several different supermarkets and even a huge three tier chocolate cake. Bruce had been about to run back out of the door when he recalled a Brazilian takeaway just outside of town as well as another chicken shop when Barry came out of his room pulling the IV stand with him woken up at all the kerfuffle Alfred was making. 

“Master Bruce it’s midnight I doubt the boy is going to eat”

Barry, pulling out the IV’s then sat down at the table quietly as they argued, looking over everything Bruce had bought him slightly shy of the money he could imagine he’d spent. A smile broke out on his face at the sight of the brown bag. 

“He’s just started gaining weight, Alf if he doesn't-” “I’m fully aware, Bruce look, one day won't kill him, the IV’s will hold on off the worst of the hypo-”

*crunch* 

They turned to see the boy happily munching prawn crackers. 

Alfred pretty much dropped to the sofa in relief. Bruce just started laughing before pulling out a chair to sit opposite the speedster who was now eyeing up the cake as he packed prawn crackers into one of kebabs. 

Nobody said a word until Barry had consumed at least five of the items on the table and paused for a can of lemonade. 

“Barry?”

The pup looks up to Alfred on the sofa who was sat with a cup of tea, paper work spread out across his lap as Bruce sat beside him with a his laptop. It was just past one one in the morning. 

“Promise me something?”

Barry paused in reaching for the rice pot next to the Korma to indicate he was listening. “When this happens again, you’ll tell me when you’ll eat again before giving us a heart attack won’t you?”

The younger nodded and fought the laugh he almost made at Bruce getting whacked with the folder in Alfred’s hand at his old man response. 

Suddenly, Curry wasn't what he wanted. He’d had a kebab, a pizza, three burgers, a subs sandwich and a whole bucket of chicken...he needed something sweet, picking up one of the boxes of dounuts he pads over to the sofa dropping himself between Alfred and Bruce who shared an intrigued look, Barry picks a dounut before pushing the box into Alfred’s lap with a cheeky smirk. 

Alfred sighs, the boys puppy brown eyes were too hard to resist and picks one out putting it in his mouth before passing the box back over to Bruce, the vigilante grimaced and went to give them back but caught Barry’s look of confusion. 

“Okay, okay, just one, I guess it won’t ruin my diet” 

Grabbing the remote, Alfred passes it to Barry as he puts away the paperwork, Bruce does the same tucking away the laptop and watches as Barry flicks for a movie. 

“Coffee, Dounuts and bad horror movies at one in the morning...I guess it beats being out in the rain eh” Bruce laughs licking chocolate off his fingers as Barry snuggles into Alfred’s side. 

“It’s perfect” Barry smiles around a mouthful of dounut, pulling a face as Alfred goes to wipe the caramel dripping off his chin. 

Feeding Barry was always going to be a challenge, but for our vigilante and Butler Dad, it was worth it just to see him happy.

Top 5 dishes / foods to eat!

I am going to come across as painfully Belgian and completely uncultured in this one, but… Let's see

Very big fan of medium rare properly-seasoned filet pure horse steak with either fresh fries put in the frier only once or with mashed potatoes mixed with the steak sauce and string beans with onions. Take out the potatoes and that's like 1/3rd of my meals when I do keto! We used to go to the Horse House in Vilvoorde, city of horse eaters, for our birthday every year in June, since my, my mom’s, and my grandma’s birthday all are within the span of four days, but we haven’t done that in a few years now. But man, they served some good horse.

You can get me crazy about the cheese croquettes you can order at restaurants, the ones where they offer a full plate of complementary vegetables like various types of lettuce and dressing. Boiled egg is a necessity, their flavours just compliment each other perfectly and I'm almost offended when it's served without one. Only the Notre Dame in Leuven serves it with an egg, which is part of why I love that place so much.

Speaking of cheese, French tacos. Good GOD what a divine invention. It's diabetes in a roll, and I love it. The general concept is that it’s basically a thick wrap (think burrito or durum style except a little denser) with cheese, fries, mayonnaise, and 1-3 types of meat inside. I always go for cordon bleu, chicken nuggets, and marinated chicken. Had one of these yesterday and just getting those makes my day, but man, are these carb and calorie bombs. Every single time I broke keto, it was because of these bad boys. They’re so good.

And on that topic, frituur. Eaten it every Friday my entire life long, same as every single Belgian in existence. It’s basic but it’s good. We just love our fries and our curryworst speciaal with curry ketchup and our boulette and our berepoot and our mayo. Did you know that during the drought a few years back, the government asked the Belgian population to please go to frituur less often because we were running out of potatoes, and that during the first months of quarantine, they urged us to go to frituur twice a week instead of once because there were too many potatoes?

Drinks deserve a spotlight as well, so aside from being a hydro homie, I love vanilla milkshakes and freshly pressed orange juice, especially in southern countries. I get withdrawals after our yearly Spain vacation, that’s how much I love me some good OJ with ‘em sweet southern oranges that haven’t gone bitter or sour in transport to Belgium yet. I’m craving milkshakes again too, it’s been ages since I had a good one!

Rap I Liked 2020

An attempt at an omnivorous list of rap songs from the year 2020 that undoubtedly missed many good songs.

Sleep well Lately, I haven't been sleepin' well I even hit the beach to soak my feet and skip some seashells Sleep well The lump inside my throat sometimes it towers like the Eiffel Sometimes I wonder do the trees get sad when they see leaves fell Sleep well The last time that I kissed you, you felt cold but you looked peaceful I read our message thread when I get low and need a refill Sleep well

4. Shabazz Palaces - Fast Learner

5. G-Herbo featuring Juice WRLD, Chance The Rapper and Lil Uzi Vert - PTSD

“People judge people from my city, or people who go through what we go through. It’s just the way you’re brought up and different situations that you experience that change your life and make you who you are. There’s a lot of people who would come to my city and not make it. There’s certain survival skills that you learn in Chicago from just naturally adapting to your environment. People judge us and outcast us from what they see on the outside but they really don’t know what’s going on on the inside. We’re making rational decisions because what we go through forces us to make those decisions. Just the older I get, the more serious I look at it. When I was younger I had my family taking care of me, and I was just living life like a kid. But by 14-15, there’s a lot of kids in my city who are living the lives of adults at that age. Other places people don’t live like that. When I was 16 I started to see people die around me. In my city theres so little to depend on, so people take other options to survive and make a way for themselves. At a young age you start learning this,” - G-Herbo, from an interview I did with him a few years ago.

“Even friends in a frenzy became ravenous

Brothers named universal, wise, supreme became savages

It's said the common thread with our enemies

Is we was all men in need with no amenities

Couldn't sit in peace, we each hit the streets for remedies

Through the hatred accumulate a hundred arms we was centipedes

The stress of empty pantries kept us antsy

No lie, essentials essentially in a shanty

Could give scripture but that big picture is what you can't see

Every grain I spelt is what helped enhance me

Went from gun waving to saving lives

I give sight to the blind just for the 85

That's what I was in the line of scrimmage

Lost some folks of course, that growth redefined percentage

Doomed in the womb, surprised I ain't see a hanger

Start questioning affection when all you see is anger,

But now I’m in good hands, surrounded by good women, good babies, good mans,”

In 1999, Jones ranked 82nd on VH1's 100 Greatest Women of Rock and Roll, and in 2008, she was honored with a Q Idol Award. Jones influenced the cross-dressing movement of the 1980′s and has been an inspiration for artists including Annie Lennox, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Solange, Lorde, Róisín Murphy, Brazilian Girls, Nile Rodgers, Santigold, and Basement Jaxx. In 2016, Billboard magazine ranked her as the 40th greatest dance club artist of all time.

Born in Jamaica, she moved when she was 13, along with her siblings, to live with her parents in Syracuse, New York. Jones began her modelling career in New York state, then in Paris, working for fashion houses such as Yves St. Laurent and Kenzo, and appearing on the covers of Elle and Vogue. She worked with photographers such as Jean-Paul Goude, Helmut Newton, Guy Bourdin, and Hans Feurer, and became known for her distinctive androgynous appearance and bold features.

Beginning in 1977, Jones embarked on a music career, securing a record deal with Island Records and initially becoming a star of New York City's Studio 54-centered disco scene. In the early 1980′s, she moved toward a new wave style that drew on reggae, funk, post-punk and pop music, frequently collaborating with both the graphic designer Jean-Paul Goude and the musical duo Sly & Robbie. Her most popular albums include Warm Leatherette (1980), Nightclubbing (1981), and Slave to the Rhythm (1985). She scored Top 40 entries on the UK Singles Chart with "Pull Up to the Bumper", "I've Seen That Face Before", "Private Life", and "Slave to the Rhythm". In 1982, she released the music video collection A One Man Show, directed by Goude.

Jones appeared in some low-budget films in the US during the 1970′s and early 1980′s. In 1984, she made her first mainstream appearance as Zula in the fantasy-action film Conan the Destroyer alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sarah Douglas, and subsequently appeared in the 1985 James Bond movie A View to a Kill as May Day. In 1986, she played a vampire in Vamp, and acted in and contributed a song to the 1992 Eddie Murphy film Boomerang. She appeared alongside Tim Curry in the 2001 film Wolf Girl. For her work in Conan the Destroyer, A View to a Kill, and Vamp, she was nominated for Saturn Awards for Best Supporting Actress.
