Nuciferyne's Tumblr Addiction @nucilulz - Tumblr Blog

Revamp!

Now that I have unlimited phone data (still no home internet, though) I've thought about attempting to come back and steadily maintain activity. I feel like condensing my blogs from being specific topics (art, personal, etc) it would be better to just combine them and sort via tags instead. That may seem an obvious solution, but at the time I started them I was waaay more active online and felt it'd get too clogged. So I'm going to try and tidy up my primary blog and combine this personal one and my outlet blog into that. I'll keep Nucirotica separate so it can remain marked explicit. ;) Thanks to the half thousand of you who are still sticking around! I'm sorry for being practically dead these past two years. It's been crazy, still kinda is. Halfway through my degree now, at least! Steadily working in office and via art, and improving my overall health (physically and mentally)! Hope you're all well my lovelies! 😘

Every day I’m still getting notes on an old post where I said that eating healthier costs more money and of course every so often is another health zealot swearing I’m wrong.

EXCEPT:

one dollar at dollar tree

one dollar at mcdonald’s

A fucking quarter almost everywhere

And what these bozos aren’t factoring in is that these foods, loaded with salts and fats and carbs and sugars, are FILLING for a shitload longer than whatever colon cleansing non-GMO avocado unicorn poop some thinspo blog is bragging about. The box of oatmeal creme cookies even lasts more than a day, just two of those things and I have no appetite again for hours.

Personally we are eating better and making more money currently but when I was a kid it was all the above shit and potatoes. Lots and fucking lots of potatoes.

STOP FUCKING TELLING POOR PEOPLE THEY’RE STUPID FOR NOT EATING LIKE YOUR HIPSTER ORGANIC CRAP

Another thing they’re forgetting is food waste. Fresh produce only lasts so long. So to regularly eat fresh you have to 1) go grocery shopping more often and 2) have your meals planned out ahead of time to use everything.

When you only have $50 or less for food for the month, it’s devastating to see $10 worth of fresh produce rot. Especially if it’s because you just don’t have time to cook it. (Poor people usually juggle multiple jobs, work overtime, or work jobs with inconsistent schedules like retail or food services.) They don’t have time to run to the grocery store 3+ times a week, especially if they have to hit up multiple stores to get the cheap prices. They don’t have time to spend 1+ hour every week doing a meal plan. And they probably don’t have that much time or energy to cook.

When I was severely poor (like, we determined which bill to pay each month by how close they were to being shut off. “We paid water last month, so they won’t turn it off until next month. It’s been two months of electricity though, so we should probably pay that before we get a cutoff.) we did not buy fresh. All our veggies were canned, because they don’t spoil. We had lots of ramen, just in case we ran out of money and couldn’t buy groceries for a while. We didn’t buy meat unless we knew we would cook it that day because we didn’t want to see it spoil. We ate a lot of boxed meals. And when I was working 60+ hours a week, you can bet your ass I ate a lot of cheap packaged shit like little debbie. Because I didn’t have time to cook before my 12 hour work day, I only got 4 hours of sleep and I wasn’t sacrificing 30 minutes for a hot breakfast, and I couldn’t afford to eat out.

Anyone who says shit like this has never been poor. When you’re poor it’s not just money you’re lacking, but time, and resources, and mother fucking energy. It’s rough. And I wouldn’t be so quick to judge them if I were you, because the poor have been through more than you could ever understand.

remember when i said veganism was clasist & not an option 4 most of society n they were all in my inbox actin like typical vegans…. well there u go

This goes doubly for chronically ill or disabled poor people. There really isn’t time and energy to make each meal especially if you’re working. It’s damn near impossible.

It’s great if eating vegan or all fresh products or what not works for you but keep in mind it won’t work for everyone.

I actually just had this sort of debate Monday. I quickly realized there is no getting someone to understand that it isn’t so easy to just ‘adjust priorities’ and ‘not make excuses’. The above are REASONS, not excuses.

“Well even when I was dirt poor”-- no. You had a brief time when you first moved out on your own. That’s not supporting a family poor. Or being perpetually poor. Or being chronically ill. You don’t understand, and that’s ok. I’m glad you don’t. But don’t judge people who aren’t up to your expectations for yourself.
