Happy N7 day 2019.

It’s been a good while, been working on a few different projects as well as being a bitter old wine lez. Hope you’ve all been keeping well. Here’s to my one true blue space girlfriend who is trapped in a bubble.

💙💙💙

Things food snobs are wrong about

“Organic” isn’t better for you or for the environment. It actually means nothing of any significance at best and is sometimes even the more wasteful, more hazardous option.

A shitload of “natural” food including a lot of imported produce is grown and harvested through slave labor in inhumane conditions.

Pizza, fried chicken, french fries, fast food, candy bars and chips ARE nutritious. They are loaded with good things. Just because they have an abundance of excess fats and might not be healthy as a staple doesn’t mean they are “nutritionless” or that their calories are “empty.” Those are hokey buzzwords pushed by the people in charge of how much you pay for the alternatives.

Eating healthier costs more. Much more. Looking down on people for their reliance on cheaper food is extremely classist and expecting everyone to be able to live off fresh veggies and cage-free meats is insultingly unrealistic in the modern world.

“Processed” literally only means the food went through some kind of automated process. This can be literally the exact same thing a human being would have done to the food for it to be labeled “unprocessed.” Being processed does not make something less healthy.

Chemicals with long, scary names are part of nature. An apple is full of compounds you probably can’t pronounce. A shorter ingredients label only means they didn’t bother listing all 300 things the product is actually made of and HAS to be made of.

Preservatives, artificial flavors and other additives are not the devil. Most are harmless and in general they are part of the reason you haven’t already starved to death or died of a food borne illness.

MSG is not bad for you at all.

The fact that something might be made of “scrap” meats like pig snouts or chicken necks only means one thing: that we didn’t waste perfectly normal, edible meat.

I DON’T KNOW HOW I FORGOT THIS IN MY FIRST VERSION OF THIS POST BUT GMO’S ARE NOT DANGEROUS TO EAT. GMO’S ARE SAVING LIVES. YOU’VE ALREADY EATEN GMO’S BEFORE YOU EVEN KNEW THE TERM. IT’S FINE. EAT THEM.

So I’ve literally done this twice before and so have several other people but here are sources on all of these, most of them fairly recent academic studies or otherwise the most up-to-date I could find:

Organic food isn’t better for you: [1] [2] [3]

Tracing food industry slave labor: [1]

Healthier food is more expensive: [1] [2]

Saturated fats (i.e. “junk food”) still provide needed energy, aren’t as bad as people thought: [1] [2]

“Processed” isn’t synonymous with less healthy, because it means a lot of different things: [1]

“Chemicals” also means a lot of things and many food components are misunderstood by the general public: [1]

MSG is not harmful: [1] [2] [3]

GMO’s are not dangerous to eat: [400 sources collected here]

“Processed” always gets me, it’s like yeah even that delicious homemade salsa you brought to the party is processed - the moment you took a knife to the tomatoes it underwent processing

Here is the second piece I did of Tali! I love drawing here down to the littlest of details, it’s really therapeutic. Progress is good, getting used to procreate and practice makes perfect! I haven’t drawn in years, so I am pretty proud of myself!

Congratulations, you are a writer! Prepare to get:

Characters popping up in your dreams

Characters popping up in your head everytime, like, damn it, Jason, I’m taking an exam here!

Weird habits you picked from your characters

The urge to make faces as you write because that’s what your characters are doing

Weird internet history

A really unsettling knowledge on poisons and murder in general

The urge to slam your face on your desk

Notebooks and notebooks cravings, even if you write on your computer

Those I wish there was more content for my characters. Oh, right. I have to make it moments.

The same daydream before falling asleep, and sometimes you cut it and restart from scrap, now with more feeling.

The urge to insert your new obsession in your current WIP but you don’t have guns in middle ages damn it.

The painful experience of wanting to tell everybody about it but at the same time not wanting anybody to know

A thousand ideas or none at all for months.

Sounds about right
