#sometimes I want to make a tiktok channel that it's just me showing the easiest cheapest aldi recipes

I'm gonna sound like a fucking conspiracy theorist but I think it's very weird that the narrative around eating healthier on English speaking Western online spaces somehow always ends up as "it's just not for common people".

Like on one hand, all the diet culture and "clean eating" bullshit online tends to promote a lifestyle that is unattainable or unsustainable for someone without prior education - like it's always pushing for trendy expensive fresh food every day. I can't have tuna and pasta, the staple food or broken italian students everywhere, I have to have an avocado tuna sandwich. I can't have a bag of frozen spinach, I need baby spinach. Protein smoothies only need powder and a liquid but if you look up online they need twenty ingredients of random assorted bullshit. Add more fruit in your diet BY HAVING FRESH BERRIES EVERY DAY.

On the other hand, most criticism of diet culture and "clean eating" seems to boil down to "see this is bland and boring, don't worry your pretty little head around it and keep eating junk food. No don't learn how to cook, that's just too hard. Just give up entirely". They even had that whole scandal of companies paying influencers under the table and so many headlines screaming "DIETS DON'T WORK" knowing full well no one is gonna click on the article to read the "fad diets don't work and diets don't work because it's supposed to be a lifestyle change not something you do for six months and then give up forever" thing written at the end of it.

Like eating well plays a very important role in everything in your life and you basically have to fight so much advertisement and bullshit trying to convince you that you can't and you shouldn't and btw now we are also turning cooking into a trend, so instead of teaching people to make tuna pasta we need you to believe that it's not cooking unless it can go on instagram.

Nevermind the fact that food tends to be homogenoised and we tend to lose all particularities of local cuisines.

SEND ME “✏️ + a ship“ or “headcanon + a ship” for three ( or more ) random headcanons I have for that ship! @deweydewncght

Dewey was the easiest one between him and his brothers for Webby to click with after she first met them. Whereas Huey and Louie were a bit hesitant with her at first, which like she knew was completely fair since Webby did mistake them to being burglars or spies who were hired to infiltrate the mansion and had tied them up, Dewey had no qualms in befriending her and even thought what she did was cool.

After Dewey expressed an interest in learning how to fight the way she does, Webby offered to teach him and for a few weeks now, she has been training him most of what she knows. Not everything because there are certain moves that could be deadly to use. But hey, Dewey’s making progress! He actually was able to surprise her and flip her the other day! 

One time, they were hanging out together at Bueno Nacho, and while they were laughing, some lady who passed their table commented on how cute of a couple they looked together. Both of them paused mid-laughter and ended up looking at one another in disgust. Dewey then claimed that Webby was like a sister to him and while she 100% agreed with that, it was the first time she heard either of the boys say that and she nearly went to tackle him across the table because of how happy she was to hear him call her that.

Webby loves being part of Dewey’s YouTube channel. Although she doesn’t understand like half of the things he wants to do or talk about as sometimes she doesn’t get his references, but even so, she enjoys it a lot and she wants to show how supportive she is about his work. 

She may not be an expert in romance or love, but even Webby can see that Elsa has a thing for Dewey and it boggles her mind that he hasn’t noticed it yet himself. Like come on, how do you go around flirting with random girls and not open your eyes to the fact that a very cute and likable girl that you are CLOSE FRIENDS WITH has been sending you signals that she was interested and yet you go around and flirt with some rando??? 

Starting saying ‘nerp’ a lot as opposed to ‘nope' all thanks to Webby hearing Dewey do so himself. She didn’t even mean to do it as a way to copy him, it was just a habit that she gained because of how long she has been hanging around him. 

Going to Pizza Planet is literally one of their favorite things to do. Dewey really loves playing the games and there was always something new about the place for Webby to explore, so whenever they have the chance to, the two can a lot of times be found hanging out there.

Dewey teaching Webby how to do some of the tiktok dances because he wanted someone to do them with him and though she doesn’t see the hype over it, she does get extremely excited when he starts to teach her them. They currently did four dances together and more are planned.

By far, Dewey will be the first one who Webby comes out about liking girls to. It’ll be during one of the moments in where instead of Webby chatting equally as excited back at him, she would instead be sitting in silence, deep in thought to the point in where Dewey would notice that she was responding and ask her what’s wrong. Then cue her proclaiming out loud to him about how she thinks she likes girls and she doesn’t know what to do about it before slapping her hands over her mouth in embarrassment. But did a weight sure lift off of her chest after that.

Sometimes Webby is in the mood to be doing girly stuff but won’t have another girl to do them with her. So she asks Dewey to do them with her instead, making him do things like putting facial masks on one another or painting each other’s nails. But best of all, PILLOW FIGHTS!!! (and if Huey and Louie ever wants to join in the festivities, they are both more than welcome to).

Looking forward to the day in where she can have a ‘double-date’ with her best friend. Of course Webby needs to find someone she likes enough to date until then and hopefully she could talk some sense into Dewey about Elsa, but imagine how awesome it’ll be if they went to like Pizza Planet and had a double-date!?!
