sorry but once you notice how often ppl use a southern accent as shorthand for being unintelligent you can never unsee it. classism is baked so deeply and why are you acting like anyone who talks the way my grandfather talks is stupid.

I’d die on the hill that “stranger danger” is a deeply unhelpful mentality to have. “Ooooh everyone is out to get me they’re all gonna perpetrate harm that’s actually more likely to come from someone I already know. I better never talk to anyone in my community who I don’t already know, just to be safe. I’m sure there are no other biases interwoven with this mentality” like oh my god human traffickers do not just randomly spawn in every parking lot. You don’t have to go solo hitchhiking across the country but you also don’t have to live in fear that every guy on the street is the knife man who’s gonna get you. Like have situational awareness, yeah. But most of the time the guy on the street is not knife man he’s actually just a guy on the street and he’s probably pretty chill, and you’re driving yourself crazy by living in a constant state of unnecessary fear.

Like always safety comes first, especially if you’re in a marginalized group more likely to be targeted by random people around you. But that’s different from stranger danger. I might even say that stranger danger is something that contributes to marginalized groups getting targeted by random people. Which strangers do you find distrust worthy? Why? Does vague distrust justify harmful actions in the name of self defense? Stranger danger draws everyone away from more important issues of safety (underlying bigotries, systemic injustices, abuse in the home, etc) and towards an amorphous boogeyman that has no solution, because it’s not the real cause or culprit.

What to eat when nothing sounds good

A look at how stress, fatigue and emotion shape appetite — and how to respond with care

really excellent article about low-spoons decision making when it comes to food

The first thing that helps is to stop thinking in dishes and start thinking in sensations. Instead of wrestling with the endlessly broad question What do you want?, try something gentler and more specific. What temperature could you tolerate right now? Do you need crunch or acid? Softness, or something slurpable? And — perhaps most importantly — how much energy do you actually have to expend? (Low desire often travels with low motivation to get in the kitchen, though not always, and that information matters.) It can help to think in loose categories — less a rubric than a set of handles you can grab when decision-making feels like too much: Temperature: cold, room temperature, warm-but-not-hot, steaming Texture: slurpable, crunchy, soft, spoonable Flavor note: acid, salt, gentle umami, creaminess Effort: one pan, one bowl, zero chopping Once you start thinking this way, certain foods begin to reveal themselves — not as recipes so much as answers.

i know the way people talk about their pets now is probably how we’ve been doing it for all of history. a cat owner in ancient rome saw their cat lounging on the dining pillows and commented “he thinks himself to be the senator claudius 🤣”

”#I LOVE that the comic keeps the lens on Calvin’s dad to the degree of not even showing Calvin’s excited face when his dad surprises him, #You can see the joy and excitement of the moment in his pose and reflected in his dad’s expression, #it’s a great little artistic decision, #I realized what gets me about it it’s the hat covering his dad’s head and hair so the dad just looks like Calvin. #you don’t HAVE to show Calvin! You already see him in the dad becoming a kid for a moment you only have to draw that once”
