tw medical stuff ig?

I've spent the past 2 weeks building a caloric deficit and utilizing intermittent fasting so my body wouldn't be so shocked by the sudden clear liquid diet prep. Starting Sunday I eliminated all the good fiber, which is essentially everything I eat bcs vegetarian. I've more or less been subsisting on "junk food," and yesterday my entire food groups were sugar and 'merican food chemicals.

I know I'm never going to be able to drink gatorade again (not that I regularly drink it anyways). I'm honestly starting to think I might not be able to eat sugar again either. Not that it was a major part of my diet -I do of course enjoy my holiday candies and summer ice creams and cookies like a normal ('merican) person. But living off of sprite and heavily sweetened tea (bcs no milk) for (empty) calories is miserable. It's whatever that negative reinforcement Pavlov psychology thing is.

If you ever hear the phrase "fascism is aesthetics as politics," that's what this post is talking about.

It's not about being tough on crime, because the absolute toughest most brutal measure you could take against "crime" as a social problem is to alleviate poverty, and increase access to education, healthcare and social mobility.

It's about performing "tough on crime" as an aesthetic by enacting violence against a prop, i.e. minorities and the impoverished, who are fetishized and objectified to represent "crime." They are brutalized as punishment for crime, but never with the purpose of alleviating the problem of crime.

This is why a lot of conservatives and other right wingers can get straight up angry when you suggest things like reform or social measures to reduce crime. They don't want crime to be reduced, they want an eternal war against "crime" because it provides an arena for the righteous to demonstrate virtue by brutalizing their enemies.

There are many people who don’t share this sentiment, but I have an appreciation for when a fanfic is so separated from canon that it could’ve easily been its own original novel, and yet the author was only ever going to put that much energy into it if their favourite characters got to be there

[pillowspace]

I think there’s a difference between “the author stripped the media of everything it had to replace it with something easy” and “the author thought up a concept they really really like and are bestowing it upon the character like a medal”
