I wonder if I can save money on food when moving out by just getting a 30 day supply of “just add water” MREs and cutting the portions in half? The only other food items I’d get would be flour and rice (in bulk), and maybe eggs, so I could pay only around 200 dollars in food for a supply of two months or potentially longer. It would work wonders for my executive dysfunction, not having to cook much. Plus, I could save money on gas by not having to drive to the store very often. I could also grow food indoors.

[calliemouselove]

here's the thing

calories are a lie, a literal actual honest-to-goodness lie.

if you want to lose weight, focus on protein and insoluble dietary fibre,

if you want to gain weight, focus on carbohydrates, the simpler the better for this (yes, if you want to gain weight, bread; sugar; potatoes are the way to go),

if you want to maintain your weight but build good physical stamina for bursts of activity through the day (if your work is active and manual), focus on carbs and protein

and if you want that with lots of spare energy to last the full day instead (if your work is more cerebral), focus on fats with your carbs.

always have one source of fat with any protein, otherwise you won't burn anything, and use carbs to avoid constipation with protein.

the amount of calories barely matter, as long as you focus on the right types of foods, and dont actively over eat. eat 'till you're full (that is to say satiated, not stuffed), and one bite more (to satisfy monkey brain) and you'll be fine.

if you're worried about bad dietary fats in things like butter for cardiovascular health reasons, trade half or even ¾ of it for a easier-on-your-system fat (olive oil, avocado oil if you're rich, shortening (also really effective for lower-income houses)) and make sure to add an acid.

actually, add an acid to all of your food in general. lime juice, lemon juice, maybe even tomato juice cooked down to remove some waterieness. not only do they taste good, and bring out all of the flavours in your food far more than butter does, they also aide in digestion when used in moderation.

It's also possible to make a snack that has all of these components except protein, just by lightly salting some tomatoes on a paper towel for about 10 minutes. then add pepper and enjoy. put it on a piece of toast with olive oil and a dry, aged cheese to make it feel fancy shmancy.

also, if you want to still worry about calories for weight loss, make your weight loss meal, but add beef buillion and msg to something toothsome in the meal. it'll feel and taste more filling, even with just the small flavour change.

never let some asshole with a diet pill to sell you dictate your diet into boring goop and lame slops. cook (or buy if you dont have the time to cook) good, tasty foods, no matter your dietary goal, and you'll be happier on the journey.

and a final note: Invest in good olive oil. i know it's more costly, but the flavour, AND the health benefits of a good olive oil are absolutely worth the cost.

[fairuzfan]

This post is for the anon who sent me that video asking me to debunk it's claims so they can be better equipped against accusations of antisemitism.

Sorry, I won't post the video since I refuse to have that man on my blog but I can give you common Zionist talking points and the illogicality behind it.

To preface: most of the questions Zionists will ask you are a trap, and will make you fall into a "rabbit hole" (as I was once told when I was younger), as we try to apply their reasoning. My advice is to ALWAYS center the humanity of Palestinians. For example, when a Zionist says:

"Don't Jews deserve a homeland to be safe?"

It fundamentally ignores the core issue: Palestinians are being raped, murdered, and expelled from their homes so that the establishment of this so called "homeland" may exist. When people ask this to you, I personally advise saying something like:

Why must Palestinians suffer for the establishment of this homeland?

Always recenter to the issue at hand—the inhumane removal and treatment of Palestinians.

"Palestine belongs to the Jews and Not Muslims"

The whole premise of this claim is flawed—there is a weird tendency to equate Arab/Palestinian=Muslim when it just is like. Completely untrue. There are Palestinian Christians, Bethlehem is famously a Christian city, who have been there for centuries. There are Palestinian Jews, who have been there for centuries. There are Palestinian Muslims, who have been there for centuries. My grandpa told me stories of how he would turn on lamps for his Jewish neighbors in Al-Khalil (or Hebron) during Shabbat.

To claim that Palestine is EITHER Islamic or Jewish doesn't make any sense and completely neglects the fact that dissemination of culture has occurred for centuries, as well as the intermingling of people throughout generations. To somehow assert that for some reason, Jews and Muslims did not have ANYTHING to do with each other—did not create together, did not build families together, did not build culture together, all while being PALESTINIAN—is incredibly racist and nonsensical. "Palestinian" is not a religious identity—it's a cultural and ethnic one.

Also, it does not negate the core issue—Palestinians are being killed, removed, and tortured so that others can live on that land.

"Well what about [something about partitioning land]?"

Honestly like, who cares about the partitioning throughout the 1900 and early 2000s. Sorry, I'm not going to list the whole "partitioning" history nonsense. The whole reason "Israel" exists is because of a Mass Exodus, murder, and rape of Palestinians. Everything after that is rendered obsolete.

"Well, I heard Palestinians allied with Hitler"

I don't know how to tell you this but Palestine was under British Control. No they didn't.

"Israel withdrew from the Gaza and left them to themselves and they put Hammas in charge"

Oh yeah, Israel totally left Gaza, that's why Gazans' water, electricity, internet, and food is completely controlled by Israel (this is sarcasm, Israel still controls basic life in Gaza).

Go back to centering the idea that no human deserves to be shoved into an open-air prison, starved, and controlled. Did you know that the Zionist Entity controls the amount of water Gazans receive, as well as counting their calories to ensure they don't have enough energy on a day to day basis?

"I heard Israel asked Arabs to stay"

Show them these papers and videos when they say this:

If you can't show them these videos, check in the next point what to say.

"Well the Palestinians left of their own will in 1948"

Palestinians in 1948 didn't "leave." They had heard of how the Zionist Entity was slaughtering Palestinians en masse. Women especially heard stories of rape and sexual violence. They fled from *violence*. Again, from an earlier post, that this was a calculated effort on the Zionist Entity's part to try and get them to "leave" on their own and "abandon" their houses so that they can come in and say "hey, they left on their own so, we can come in and take their houses now."

Anyways, the idea that once you leave your house you can't ever come back to it is incredibly odd to me as an argument on Zionists' part. Like if you leave your house right now to go to the grocery store and you come back and see someone in your house and they're like "sorry dude, this is my house now, you left so that means you can't come back," you'd be like, "what the hell!" It would be even weirder if everyone agreed with the guy who took your house, which is what happened to Palestinians.

In Al-Khalil, or Hebron, Palestinians always have to have someone stay in their house or else a Settler will come in and take it from them. So it still goes on today as well.

This is not a point, but when that one person in the video said "Arabs lived under Israeli rule" and showed a clip of a bustling city with mountains, I'm pretty sure that was Amman, Jordan, not Palestine lol. Those buildings in the mountains look like how downtown Amman builds the residential areas. Could be wrong tho.

"There are no Jews living under Palestinian rule in Palestine"

What is this, some sort of gotcha argument? What are they trying to prove, the racist (obviously false) notion that Palestinians hate Jews as a whole? How do they know no Palestinian Jew lives in Gaza? Also, Settlers in Palestinian Territory exist??? I had never heard this claim before, its incredibly stupid lol. You're automatically a citizen of "Israel" if you're Jewish, whether or not you live in or outside of Palestinian Territories. So of course technically they don't live under Palestinian rule, they're granted full rights as an "Israeli" citizen automatically!

Go back to talking about the inhumane treatment of Palestinians, I wouldn't bring up the above counterpoint unless they really won't let it go since the main point is mistreatment.

"Why are Christians supporting Israel then, if it's a secular issue rather than a religious one?"

Well actually for a couple reasons:

Oil interests and regional control of goods (White People Supporting White People).

Weird fundamentalist ideology where they want to enact the second coming of Christ.

And finally because they are racist and don't think Arab Christians deserve to live. They literally bombed a 1500+ year church the other day. Why would (White) Christians cosign that.

Anyways, its a stupid argument again, because it forgets the core issue of Palestinians dying and being displaced.

In summary, always go back to the point of centering the Palestinians being displaced, tortured, and murdered, no matter the argument a Zionist gives you.

So a significant side effects of my medication is greater sense of hunger and weight gain. People obviously say it should be easy not to gain weight knowing it, because 'it's enough to just not eat more and exercise : )'. But I wonder if these people know how it feels to try to ignore hunger and exercise when your whole body aches just from taking a walk. Especially if your brain needs stimulation and when you're already struggling with disordered eating. It's a literal torture. Chronically ill people should never be shamed for gaining weight. Nobody should.

People in northern Gaza have been forced to survive on an average of 245 calories a day - less than a can of fava beans - since January, as Israeli forces continue their military onslaught. Over 300,000 people are believed to still be trapped there, unable to leave. The miniscule amount of food represents less than 12 per cent of the recommended daily 2,100 calorie intake needed per person, calculated using demographic data considering variations by age and gender. Last week, the Israeli government told UNRWA, by far the largest aid provider in Gaza, that its convoys would no longer be allowed into the north. Oxfam’s analysis is based on the latest available data used in the recent Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) analysis for the Gaza Strip. Oxfam also found that the total food deliveries allowed into Gaza for the entire 2.2 million population - since last October - amounted to an average of just 41 per cent of the daily calories needed per person.

[kanophane]

Please listen to the latest Chapo Trap House episode, the guest is a journalist from Gaza and it's harrowing.

The Israelis once calculated the total calories of food going into Gaza so that the populace would be just above starvation levels, but not enough to do anything more. It's fucking insane. It's beyond inhumane, it's completely depraved.

You cannot argue that Gaza is not a concentration camp. In every sense of the word.

I can tell I'm falling into disordered eating patterns again but stopping is so fucking hard.
