Got blocked by the OP of the diabetes post by saying that sugar IS considered one of the factors in type 2 diabetes 🥴
And it is super important to take it into consideration because eating refined sugar freely and drinking high fructose syrups and syrup-spiced drinks WILL fuck you up and potentially lead to life-threatening conditions in the long run
And that doesn’t mean cutting off sugar completely but be mindful what you put in your body lmao - you *do* need carbohydrates but carbohydrates do not mean white sugar and corn syrup - and your body can convert them from other sources AND healthier sugars
Feed yourself the best quality foods just like you’d your pets and loved ones
#ok whatever you tell yourself#i said to not shame people#and that other factors ARE in play#but you cannot simply say sugar is not the factor#you're misleading people#txt#this site is so fucking weird about sugar it's like it's holy to you#i've been a victim of fatshaming ever since i was little and yet i can understand that processed foods are#in fact#NOT good for you#and that the type 2 diabetes is at least partially a societal illness that is exacerbated by refined sugars syrups and processed foods#IN PART#sorry i'm fucking passionate about it#once again i DO think you should never shame anyone but also spread awareness about processed foods and its effect on people#this is not whether you're fat or not this is about health#americans man#that was a block speedrun#y'all hate being told you in fact have agency about your own health#it's so easy to say 'i do everything right why do i feel bad'

hey, so i need some advice on ao3 etiquette, and was hoping for your opinion -
i posted a fic recently and got a bunch of comments (nice problems and so on)
i'm wondering if answering all of them is like, 'in bad taste' ?
on one hand i want to let these 5-8 people know i'm happy they enjoyed the story,
on the other hand it maybe makes the fic look more popular than it is - which is maybe misleading ...
any thoughts?
Hi, anon!
Well, I try to answer every comment I get, because the person took their time to type it down and send it, and the least I can do is show my gratitude.
People sort their fics in all different ways: hits, kudos, comments; they make ridiculous ass formulas to count what's worth reading or not. If you try to fit into everyone's standard, you're gonna loose yourself. Like, so what if there's a lot of comments? What are people going to accuse you of, being kind? Please.
If you want to answer every comment, do so.
#btw you're not the one who developed the site and made the author's comments count#I'd call it misleading if you spam your own fic with single comments but you're answering other people#anon asks#hedwig221b replies#tbh i wondered the same thing like the real number of comments on almost all of my fics is the current one divided by 2 lol#cause I answer everyone#be kind and if someone accuses you of something block them#writing

man I hate that the only options for fashion are
make it yourself
thrift
have lots of money
what if I just want to buy new clothes that fit with minimal effort?? what then
#personal#also can I just say the kink communities whole 'just dress however you feel comfortable! :)' when there's like ten different unstated rules#like no stains no holes no unraveling seams#etc#is sooo fucking frustrating#people really can just mislead you right to your face#there is no community space no social group that accepts markers of poverty that include clothes that are falling apart#either you have to learn visible mending or you're seen as lesser#it shouldn't be this way

I hate being loveless. Send post.
#despite the scrambling to accept loveless folks that ended up fucking over romance and love favorable people#I still feel broken. I feel like I'm misleading my partners because the truth is that I don't love them like they love me#and they know this. we're open and I haven't misled them at all but I feel like a fraud still.#I want to be included in things or at least thought about even though I don't give people a second thought#but when I voice this: 'you didn't care about them anyway. they tried to reach out before'#I still value connections. after years of being pushed away by peers I still try to make connections with people#and when they inevitably feel stronger about me than I do them#or see things differently than I do#I feel... inadequate. like my attempts at being a person are futile#It's part of why I don't see myself as a person at all anymore. Because I can't FEEL like a 'normal' person.#it fucking sucks. and no amount of 'oh you're no less a person than someone who feels love uwu' can fix that#I can't even love my family. do you know how much that sucks to not be able to love your own mother?#years ago when I was 7 I had a nightmare where my mom said 'you don't love me anyway' while I was trying to convince her#not to jump into the water in front of us. that phrase has appeared in arguments years later#imagine the horror I feel trying to come to terms with the fact that that's a true statement.#I do care about and appreciate people but it'll never be enough#I'LL never be enough#it hurts.#and the performative bullshit on this platform doesn't help#loveless#aplatonic#afamilial

Tbh I kind of hate those "NOT the same person. ARE the same person" Kingdom Hearts memes, not cause there's no humor to them but because most of the explanations for these things aren't actually that difficult, it's just possession or clones or spiritual connections most of the time, which are pretty common in fantasy stories (some of them like the Nobodies are kind of a can of worms but also not hard to understand in context and ANY fantasy story with multiple installments is going to have stuff like that), and yet people who aren't familiar with the series use these images all the time to support the running idea that Kingdom Hearts is like. Impossible to follow and makes no sense. Which I, of course, don't like because at its core it's just people calling a thing I like stupid. And I WILL take it too seriously because I have the kind of autism that makes you deranged about Kingdom Hearts
#i stand by that KH overall is not really particularly confusing to begin with. you just need to actually play at least most of the games#which isn't an unreasonable ask for a continual story. you wouldn't skip the middle book of a trilogy#and then act like the book is bad cause you're confused#but there also ARE some parts of KH that are not well explained or that were retconned#but people still insist on doing the 'KH is so confusing' bit about the things that half the story is ABOUT that are explained thoroughly#the stuff that's actually confusing sometimes are the things that DON'T get focus#and yeah I am taking it too seriously. i know. i also don't care if fans joke about all the lookalikes and shared hearts cause I do too#it's just come to bother me online how it plays into people making fun of my special interest#especially when the mocking is based on a misleading pretense#all done now goodbye

okay i get what you're trying to say but the arab conquest of the levant happened in the seventh century ce
#palestinian was not an ethnic identity until very recently (and even then it's arguably not one or it's a subgroup but anyway)#it was a purely geographic term until like...the late 19th century with the rise of nationalism around the globe#don't harrass op for this btw like. they're not wrong but it's kind of annoying and misleading to act like palestinian has always been#an ethnic identity that could be applied to ancient people#and it's straight up disingenuous to imply that ancient jews in the levant were arabs bc. they weren't??#arabs were in arabia in the first century#sasha speaks#obligatory disclaimer: if you're weird or rude on this post i block you#'don't oversimplify the history and identities of SWANA people' and yet we take for granted the idea#that arabs were always present across SWANA and not themselves a major empire/colonizing force in the middle ages#okay Anyway i'm going to class now bye.

Watching the projection polls for the BC election like
Are y'all okay out there
#y'all. if you elect a conservative circus you're gonna get clowns. they keep scrubbing their media of stuff to mislead people#among a lot of other things lol#like. maybe the fact they absorbed a bunch of bc united far-right lunatics should be enough of a red flag#and the fact rustad is a conspiracy theory 'climate change isn't a crisis' freak#but i guess that's not enough of a deterrent?#different party =/= good party. can y'all please understand that before you wreck the province my friends live in#i have more choice words but imma leave it at that#bc election#canada politics#politics#current events#current events cw

I'm beginning to think that if you have to google what a social cue is and when reading through the Wikipedia article on social cues you're like...
No. No. People can't actually do this. People can't look at a person and know that much about them. This can't be real. Someone hijacked Wiki again. This is fake.
MAYBE JUST MAYBE YOU DONT UNDERSTAND SOCIAL CUES AND YOU IN FACT ARE THE ONE WHO IS MISTOOKEN AND NOT WIKIPEDIA
#note to self#autism#actually autistic#social cues#and just the name is so fricking misleading#social cues???#that makes it sound like you're referring to “if someone smiles they are happy”#and yes i understand smiling means you're happy#according to wikipedia#allistic people can look at someone and decide whether theyre trustworthy or not#just by looking at them#excuse????????#that sounds so fake#why would you mistrust someone before they did anything untrustworthy?#AND THAT'S A SOCIAL CUE#THATS WHAT A SOCIAL CUE IS#WHAT

natgeo called gartersnakes nonvenomous in the year 2020 I am going to yell
#we have known this is false for two decades come on#people think you're a reputable source. do better.#why did they have no one who knows anything about snakes even look at this article. it's also misleading in other ways#not maliciously. just the writer uses too many generalizations and isn't very informed

actually insane that multiple people felt the need to be like ummm op this doesn't actually prove that no lesbian has ever done anything wrong in their life so my lesbophobia is completely justified😘!!!!!! proves my point exactly if the fact that the largest dataset we currently have says that lesbians are the most likely sexuality to say they support trans people and instead you want to refocus on how lesbians are the problem. like read the room. ask yourself where that urge comes from. ask yourself why it makes you uncomfortable to think that unless you're a lesbian yourself, transphobia in the lesbian community probably isn't the #1 hill you should be dying on. look inside yourself 💜💜💜
#I cant get over the person who was like 'this is only from white people at one school' and then posted data showing it's from 3000 people#at 300 institutions#also I.... don't think you want to be implying lesbians of colour would've swung the numbers is that what you're implying?#also I linked an article abt the study rather than the study itself because I know yall can't read data#which again have already had my point proven#not @ oomf who commented I agree the wording was misleading and I changed it#I also don't find self reporting particularly reliable however I think it's fair to use comparatively#when we assume anyone reporting as 'not supportive' is like pretty drastically a bigot and there are far more of those reports#among gay men and bi people and also. cishets😭

Wounded pride is a very dangerous thing. Whether you're a country or a politician.
A narrative of victimhood when you're actually in a position to do a lot of damage.
#deserve#to win#Bc you were wronged thus it justifies everything#Like what??#Nope#Lookin at vk still. I think russia has a particular problem with this#Which may be a fault of all large/powerful countries idk#Everyone wants to be the good guy#But you're only the good guy if you do good things#Being a victim#Nations#Presidents#Be careful or you may end up#Causing a war#Hurting people#At very least misleading them bc u can't stand to lose bc you#In these cases often exaggerated or fabricated#Doesn't mean you're good#Neither does winning

you ever have some experiences w something and wanna be able to use it to help ppl who are in a similar situation but just like... dont know how? that's me with law of attraction shit .-.
#its like... a cult... i dont know how i could word things enough for ppl to have a revelation its a misappropriated understanding of dharmic#religions convincing you you'll get everything you want if you just 'be happy'.#that ALONE should be a red flag bc dharmic religions are notoriously known to condemn greed and desire#not bc desire and wealth (specifically) are bad but desire is what leads to suffering as in if you're thinking about the things you want to#much you'll suffer. the problem comes in- with ppl like abraham hicks- is that she kinda reminds you of your desires constantly#and you cant stop thinking about something you keep being reminded to think about. another problem is the promise she makes#that if you do master 'the law of attraction' that you'll get 'everything you want'. but thats just not how this works.#the point of letting go of desire- even if only to meditate- is to let go of suffering. it's not going to suddenly rain material wealth on#you. it will probably make you more grateful for right now instead of constantly longing but that's about it. and thats my problem with her#teachings bc its incredibly misleading to how this all works and ofc she thinks it works shes rich.#it always 'works' for rich people bc all rich people need to do is 'see the opportunities they're missing'#well poor ppl are well aware of what they're missing out on but dont have the money like you to pull out of their ass conveniently#to invest in whatever thing on impulse.#that content istg only exists to wrap people into the 'get rich quick' schemes bc once they get disillusioned and realize the origins#of what shes trying to teach says something completely different but are so hooked on 'fulfilling their desires' and 'getting rich' they'll#just hop to the next thing they see to 'get rich quick'. and still never actually get rich.
