Don’t you know the entire fediverse is supposed to be cultivated to PatFussy’s personal taste?

MyFitnessPal had a problem with anorexic using the app to compare their disordered eating in competition. From there it went downhill fast.

I do a yogurt Smoothie (130 cals) and a cup of black coffee for first breakfast, then a carnation breakfast essentials or a muscle milk protein shake for second breakfast.

It hits my protein goals (super important- I have a very physically demanding job) but it costs more than eating garbage (or pure carbs which I can’t afford to do for my health).

I have no idea. It’s monstrously large so that might be why.

I was buying them and eating half of one for breakfast but with like no protein and no redeeming qualities beyond “not hungry” and “taste good” I knew it wasn’t a real option. But my point here wasn’t “this is what I do,” my point was, “people are being disingenuous when they pretend it’s not a real option many people are taking.”

I work 12 hour shifts. I do meal prep of curries or stews and that makes a good, cheap meal, but the storage required to freeze 3 meals worth of meal prep for 4 days of work… plus the time it consumes in making and properly cooling and storing those meals… it’s not a luxury many people have. Convenience options are very appealing for many reasons and there’s this place where “I have to spend at least a day a week planning for work, preparing and putting away food in order for it to be healthy” yoyos around to, “I don’t make enough to buy healthy convenience food.” If I had kids I’d never be able to prep like I do. Hell, it’s difficult as it is!

I’m the wrong person to answer this. I react badly to eggs (just know it’s gastrointestinal and unpleasant) and I have oral allergy syndrome (specifically bananas).

Love hot sauce though!

I had a hard time arguing against Sam’s Club muffins for breakfast.

For less than $6, I can have nine 710 calorie muffins. But the cost to my health to eat that much pure sugar with extremely little nutrition and like zero protein?

But that’d breakfast for 9 days for less than $7 (including tax.)

People who say eating healthy is cheaper if you’re willing to spend the time have never been to Sam’s Club.

Autism can present in many ways and many “levels.” Are you talking about making all of your gnomes a specific, similar presentstion (ASD 1?) Or are you talking about specific stereotypes of autism? Are you talking about giving them all your very specific brand of behaviors associated with an autism diagnosis?

Because this is all important. If you’re making them all have racial traits that are like you, then I say, have at, but maybe don’t call it autism specifically, because you’re representing a specific type and others might feel unrepresented. Or if you’re making them all have behaviors we associate with a specific type of ASD, then make sure there’s room in there for them to present in their unique ways.

Example: All gnomes have ASD traits. Make a roll on a chart for all known associated behaviors, randomly assigning those traits. Maybe this gnome is bad at eye contact, but maybe that one is bad at eye contact and also hypersensitive to sound. Maybe this one is extremely interested in obscure music, or that one is really great at drawing.

There’s a lot to figure out but I think you can do it! If you want to. It’s cool to write things we’re familiar with but also to be true to our own experience. I have ADHD but my behaviors are very different from my ADHD boyfriend, and both our types are valid.

You just told them a “better example” than the one they made, because the example you told them was “better” was one you could disagree with, and that shit was transparent as hell.

You talk about wanting free debate but you used an actual strawman.

I love the way the smoke seems to be coming off of the top of it…

Whoever down voted this has no sense of humor.

Wylde Flowers is absolutely amazing. The choices you make in conversation seem to actually matter- as in, what the other characters do and say changes.

Not to spoil something but you do a thing for someone else and when you’re getting in trouble for it, I chose the option to say, “I did the thing, and I’m not sorry!” And I got an impassioned speech that explained how it was the right thing to do. And how the others reacted catered to that completely.

Well written. Lots of fun.

Man I had to reread that headline like five times. “How was the man, who was killed, rebuking anyone?”

10/10 name! Are you a Name Rater?

Love that the blood is represented.

Period poops finally getting their horrible, horrible time to shine.

I’m a pokemon breeder. You never get to fight me because I’m always telling you whether there’s an egg or not, but if you got to see my perfect IV, perfect EV, perfect nature team, every single one is shiny.

And a side effect of all that needless effort is that I’m frickin loaded.

My appearance is the Alolan girls’ (braids, cowboy hat, overalls).

Need a better, less kinky name for me though.

The demon core doesn’t really scare me because at least everyone there knew about the potential for harm.

I would watch this soap opera.

If you do have ADHD then I’ll just hope your next hyper-focus is ADHD and it’s impacts and methods to mitigate it. Good luck!

That’s patently incorrect. Executive dysfunction, a hallmark of ADHD, often results in something called “task paralysis” wherein you’re unable to begin a task, even though it weighs on your mind.

The advice that a person could be exhibiting this symptom because of a different cause (such as depression) is true, but people with ADHD experience this issue at a higher frequency than their more neurologically typical peers, and if it’s a problem being caused by ADHD, and not depression, it can lead to depression as a comorbidity.
