Welp.
So, much more research is needed, but this ain't great. The only bright sides are that 1. Surprisingly there is no difference in risk between a tiny tattoo and full body coverage, so if you have even one tattoo, there's no point in worrying about getting more, and 2. The overall risk of lymphoma is still very small, with other lifestyle factors having a much larger part, so it's more of an informed risk. Also, better studying and regulating inks. The fact that stuff that is injected into your body has zero safety requirements is nuts.
#This study didn't distinguish between different ink brands and sources#So there may be a difference in synthetic vs plant based#But again more research is needed

actually natori has some kind of tracking talisman on matoba at all times. that's how he knew where to abduct matoba from for Operation: Kitty Cat City. matoba fully knows about it; it's why he wasn't at all surprised to find a paper doll in natsume's hair after the mask youkai debacle (matoba internally as he watched it fly away: classic mother hen shuuichi-san momence 🥰). because this is matoba "boundaries? what are those? can you eat them?" seiji we're talking about, he's not bothered by this "violation" of his "privacy"; rather, he finds it fittingly clingy (it is, after all, only right that natori should be keeping tabs on him obsessively). sometimes the talisman gets confused and sticks to yesterday's outfit, so he always checks to make sure he has it on the way out the door (his pocket patdown is "keys, lighter, wallet, exorcism supplies, shuuichi-san's cute lil tracker he thinks i don't know about <3"). i wouldn't be surprised if he's figured out how to uno reverse it and now uses it to track natori's location as well. this may not technically be canon but it is probably all 100% true in an important way that transcends canon, we just never hear about it because it isn't relevant to natsume's journey 😌
#matoba: a natori talisman. sure wish i had one of those 😇#<-knows that he has one on him at that very moment and also that natori doesn't know that he knows#convince me that he didn't say this on purpose to make natori sweat. you can't!#in response to him saying that natori side-eyes him and has a dot dot dot speech bubble (my favorite vol. 26 ellipsis btw)#which is exactly how he would react if he had secretly planted a talisman on matoba#and was trying to figure out if matoba knew and was alluding to it!!#check and mate. game set match. QED. i rest my case.#i've connected the dots i've connected them but also i feel like it wasn't that hard. the truth is out there you just have to believe#natsume's book of friends#natsume yuujinchou#horrible exorcists#matoba seiji#f#homura cats arc#my posts#btw i do not think the head of the matoba clan actually does anything so base as to carry keys on his person#he has people for that. he has a driver. he has servants who open the door when they see him coming. what possible need could he have#for such an object#he also may not need to carry a wallet (or equivalent) for similar reasons#but it was the best shorthand i could think of to make what i meant by 'pocket patdown' readily apparent#especially since 'cell phone' isn't an option either since this is set in the 80s#i figure he must have some kind of lighter or firestarter bc he uses smoke to find the source of the locked-room curse#he also seems to carry a brush & ink and various & sundry tools of the trade that i decided to call 'exorcism supplies'#matoba-san drop the 'what's in my purse' youtube video 👀

hate when boot companies are like "we are Environmentally Friendly because we don't use real animal leather!" What do you mean environmentally friendly!!! that means you are using synthetic fake leather!! plastic is NOT environmentally friendly!!!!!
#animal leather is environmentally friendly#and there are ethical ways to source it#it's not always evil evil animal abuse#plastic pleather is not saving the envirnment#it lasts nowhere NEAR as long and just puts microplastics everywhere#real leather can last generations and it's a NATURAL FIBER#and yes there is plant-based leather but it is not mainstream and that is not what those boot companies are using#leather#boots#leather boots#real leather boots#real leather#anti vegan#unityrain.txt

I think veganism is a really cool lifestyle for people who are able to access it safely and healthily. But one thing I've struggled with a lot in talking to vegans, especially political and philosophical vegans, that I've personally met (important caveat) is the alarming way some of them have talked about the natural world. Strikingly, one conversation I remember having a couple years ago involved some fairly conventional statistics about environmental impacts of animal agribusiness and urban sprawl that culminated in some less-statistically-based conclusions about how human development is wholesale bad for the ecosystem, and given that we both lived in a medium-sized city, I responded (as close to verbatim as I remember) "But this is an ecosystem. We live here." and this was clearly not the correct response for my conversation partner, who doubled down and then pivoted to a different talking point.
And, like, this made my stomach sink to hear. I'm by no means a perfect (and by most metrics possibly not even "good") ecology person; I mean, I've lived in fuckin colonized America for the overwhelming majority of my life. But I do care deeply about the places I live - I make an honest effort to try and notice the wildlife that I share space with, talk to bees, learn the names of ditch flowers and weeds, and identify local plants vs introduced ones and do what I can to be mindful of how my actions impact them. To talk with someone who on the surface shared those values but scratching just below the surface felt more like "nature good. humans bad. bad humans, bad." was gutting. I don't live in some separate reality from the grass and squirrels and sweetgum trees in my neighborhood. The sort of moralism and mindset of abstenant anthropic stewardism they expressed resounded in the part of my brain that remembers growing up in an evangelical Christian bubble. I still struggle to understand how someone who wants so passionately to make the world a better place can reconcile that goal when their rhetoric sounds like the secular eco-version of the armageddonist worldview I grew up around.
It hurts a little bit. The world is literally not a walled garden to tended, partitioned off from humanity. It's an open space, sprawling and full of weird weeds and beasties, and also I live here and you do and they do too and we all deserve to have the best environment we can create for ourselves. All of us.
This is an ecosystem. We live here.
#I guess this post is less about veganism than it is about an epistemoligical conversation that was framed by talk of veganism#Cos - as stated - I think plant-based diets and lifestyles are rad as hell if you're able to access them safely and healthily#And I guess I'm still just a little upset that someone I hoped to find shared ground with#Found the source of their passion in a place that (to me) screamed of danger

Random idea I had while trying to go to sleep that I feel like sharing
Okay so in this world, there’s magic, but it’s specifically stored in food, or more accurately, plants. And eating these plants gives a certain magical effect when eaten
And as a result, the animals of this world have certain magical properties based on their diets. This also can extend to humans and whatever other potential sapient species come to exist also
#this was based on me thinking about Pokémon berries#I imagine that magicians would specifically curate their diet based around whatever magic they want to learn#also potentially as you go higher up the food chain the magical potency becomes more diluted#like for example eating a grasshopper would give you more magic than eating a snake#going back to magicians they’re probably vegans solely because the plants are the most potent source#I just thought this sounded cool#from what I understand this isn’t the plot of Dungeon Meshi#anyways I’m gonna go to sleep now#I just had to get thoughts out#ori#original stuff#sto#story ideas#random stuff

i love when ppl post pictures of entirely foraged salads/soups bc they're so pretty but probably taste like absolute dogshit. i mean i've eaten a lot of those wild plants and they are not good.
#generally food is not good without at least a fat source and salt lmao#the only actually edible foraged leaf based dishes are like. some type of green cooked with wild onion and eggs#but flowers literally just taste like flowers... leaves taste like leaves#and u can't throw in like 10 different plants together and call it a dish lmao#even when u cook for real u don't just mix random shit together#omg and anyone who willingly eats young conifer leaves/needles r insane. the only way i would consume that is maybe as a tea#u gotta get reaalllyy desperate to start eating conifer and i mean no dandelion leaves level of desperate#also i'm sorry but u are not ''foraging'' daylilies u r picking them out of your mama's garden#*no edible grass type desperate (like grandparents in the chinese revolution type desperate)

I'm so so so so sick of "we need to do x to feed the world" coming from the US and western agriculture companies.
I'm trying to write a research review paper for my entomology class, and for my topic I chose insects as an alternative food/animal feed source. And really I haven't even gotten into the topic itself yet, but the rhetoric at the beginning of most these articles is exactly the same as chemical companies. "If we introduce/change this one thing we'll solve hunger by 2050!!!". No bitch, what will actually happen is that new thing you introduce will have emissions and ecological impact just as bad as or worse than the things we already have because you don't want to grapple with capitalism as a system and how our food is distributed and produced.
And like I know companies know this, they know the real goal is to capture another thing to profit off of. What gets me is SO many people will repeat this to death without critically thinking about why we have hunger in the world, and without looking at how food and agricultural products are distributed.
There's no miracle product to fix a systemic issue.
#don't get me wrong though other protein sources are important#but I imagine its more realistic both socially and research wise to first promote plant based protein#I'm going to go ham in this literature review#i already wrote two (2) articles for my school paper on this topic akdkfjfkgj

i was going to reblog that post with someone conflating out of touch karens with "slavery quinoa vegans" but interestingly they turned off reblogs. but i didn't write this all for nothing
literally the first result on google when searching "slavery quinoa":
Debunking the myths around vegans and quinoa production: Nonvegan Leftists are engaging in misinformation when they derail vegan advocacy with quinoa production and consumption.
This has been debunked for fucking years now. The original article that gave people (twitter) the "slavery quinoa" idea doesn't mention slavery, human trafficking, or even exploited laborers. The farmers themselves actually had somewhat of an economic boom. The issue they mention is that it became expensive for consumers in countries where it's grown. There's also no source that shows vegetarians/vegans eating more quinoa than anyone else.
sorry if it sounds annoying but people making posts about how "nobody knows how food production works outside their immediate community" usually don't know much about food production outside of their immediate community either. which is kind of the point of the post anyway. i'm not even bringing up a new argument here it's just weird to see posts perform their own thesis
anyway please just fucking stop saying "slavery quinoa" forever already.
#sorry to those who feel annoyed by the tone of the first link. but like not really. it has decent sources#tg even had to add a disclaimer on their article like 'we found out it's not vegans eating all the soy its uh. 97% for livestock.'#like yeah no shit! no metric shows that plant based diets are the main reason for overfarming of ANYTHING let alone soy or quinoa#im ranting

Let's talk about: Honeysuckle
Surprise led me to a cluster of Kantonian Honeysuckle plants yesterday so I figured I should talk a bit about them as a wild treat!
Now its important to know, not all honeysuckle are edible, but Kantonian Honeysuckle is one of those cases where its perfectly safe to drink nectar from (but DO NOT eat honeysuckle berries, they are not edible and can make you ill) While honeysuckle can't replace a good nutritional meal, they're very good as a sweets substitute should you encounter them in the wild.
..However, I want to say that this is only a treat for trainers and grass type Pokemon like Gloom who produce nectar of their own. Pokemon like my buddy Mutt (Growlithe) and most mammal based mons will get very ill if they eat anything from the plant and in some cases it can even turn fatal. If your Pokemon ever accidentally ingest one of these plants, it is important to get to a Pokemon center straight away so the optimal treatment can be administered as quickly as possible.
Before consuming any kind of honeysuckle plant, I strongly encourage you to do your own research. Most honeysuckle are safe to eat, but its always better to be prepared when out and about foraging. Safety should always be the number one priority for both you and the environment!
#poke survival tips#pokemon rp#pkmn rp#also if any of y'all are planning on growing honeysuckle in a garden#I recommend you look to see if the honeysuckle species in question is invasive or not#kantonian honeysuckle is actually invasive in places like unova#and can and will compete against native flora!#ooc: since I based this off a real plant I must reiterate to do your own research#ooc: I'm not a professional!! this is a silly Pokemon blog. I do my best to make sure my sources are accurate#but do not use this blog as a professionally written survivalist/foraging guide#sorry if this is obvious but I want to make this point clear because its important#and obviously I did not go into everything about honeysuckle here#end ooc

i live in Quebec and have access to both American and European chocolate and like. it's all shit imo.
since i've tried specialty chocolate literally everything else now tastes too oily, too acidic or too sweet
i know it all comes down to taste preferences and very much affordability, but i also do think a bar of speciality chocolate is worth 10-20 bars of cheap chocolate, especially bc i don't feel sick after having one bite anymore
The European mind cannot comprehend what it was like to be a person who'd only had Hershey bullshit chocolate my entire life and then have European chocolate for the very first time and it made me realize why people were acting like that in the Willy Wonka movies
#additional caveat that with my sugar intolerance and desire to eat plant-based#i only ever buy vegan dark(ish) chocolate these days#and that my pref fo flavours tends to the less mainstream like “fig” or “rye” or “cardamom”#i have a solid background in specialty coffee beans and my intrest in that has now extended to cacao beans#i just think it's neat!#big fan of Rakka and Pump Street and Fjåk !!!#and yeah way more expensive than what you'll find in stores but seeing as i'll feel sick after a bit of most choco bc of how sweet it is#it makes more sense to spend more less often and have a fun and fancy treat#there are a lot of diff specialty brands that can cater to dietary restrictions and will be more transparent abt sourcing and sustainability#Taylor the Latte Boy#ish#specialty beans#coffee tea cocoa tag#beans and leaves tag#☕🍵🍫 tag
