  • True, but also as an American only Aldi and special shops sell a decent whole wheat. I don’t want my whole wheat bread sweet dammit, I want some nice fibery bread for my unsweetened peanut butter because that’s an easy, cheap, and moderately healthy lunch I can make every night before work without thinking about it and it’s something I’m perfectly fine eating about 240ish days a year.








  • I’m a woman, but I feel like if I were a man I’d be offended by the fact that large swathes of America seem to think that manhood and the military and its aesthetics are the same thing.

    Like, men can have other jobs. I’ve known men who are accountants and scientists and even healthcare workers and educators. I’ve known men who are pacifists and anti war activists. Hell men can even have other interests that are culturally associated with their gender. You could do sports themed baby bags, or “fun things culturally associated with kids doing with dad” ones, or even barely change the aesthetic but make it astronaut themed.

    Like, I worry that this increasing association between masculinity and the military is being done on purpose in an attempt to prime young men to go lose parts of their bodies and minds in foreign countries, and I’m reminded of the cultural buildup to the first world war








  • Years and years is an edge case. Within a year or so you’ll notice the changes. Changes I’ve personally experienced include cutting out sugar and substitutes and completely losing my sweet tooth within a few months, and quitting meat and after about a year I could tell whenever I accidentally eat it from the gastrointestinal discomfort.

    The thing is you gotta commit to it.
