“suffering feels religious if you do it right” no shut up it doesn’t. my friends laughing in the kitchen while i make dinner feels religious. the sun on my face after a long winter feels religious.

fame is unkind 2 women. it’s hard to watch artists I like get big knowing they will experience all the forms of misogyny one experiences in normal interactions but from a growing audience of dumb gremlins with access to keyboards.

Climate change will make rice less nutritious, putting millions of the world's poor at risk

As atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rise, rice plants produce fewer vitamins and other key nutrients. This could worsen hunger, malnutrition, child stunting and other diet-related health problems.

My research focuses on health risks associated with climate variability and change. In a recently published study, I worked with scientists from China, Japan, Australia and the United States to assess how the rising carbon dioxide concentrations that are fueling climate change could alter the nutritional value of rice. We conducted field studies in Asia for multiple genetically diverse rice lines, analyzing how rising concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere altered levels of protein, micronutrients and B vitamins.

Our data showed for the first time that rice grown at the concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide scientists expect the world to reach by 2100 has lower levels of four key B vitamins. These findings also support research from other field studies showing rice grown under such conditions contains less protein, iron and zinc, which are important in fetal and early child development. These changes could have a disproportionate impact on maternal and child health in the poorest rice-dependent countries, including Bangladesh and Cambodia.

while we’re all on this fuck makeup culture band wagon can we also talk about shape-wear? stockings? painful heels? the fact that for women to be tastefully “done up” she has to be five different types of uncomfortable?

[lezzbianratssoontobeextinct-dea]

being a woman and no matter how confident your current sense of self is, you still have those moments when you’re like “hmm if only I could escape my physical form,” because of the absolute terror and disgust and shame and vulnerability you have around your body, oh and just wishing you had been born a boy so you didn’t have to feel this stifling and inescapable fear and anger all the time
