Yesss! I like that there's so many flavor options for nori too. I like spicy ones!

I could definitely see it! I think perfumes tend to focus on the sweet, immediately pleasant aspects. But we're of the mindset that most things need a bit of dirty to really shine.

That has stuck with me ever since. Sanitizing media doesn't change the reality of an event. But I suspect that it might reduce opportunities for pple to engage with complex and painful emotions in a context where it is safer to do so.

This person's critique reminded me of when my friend was taking a course on genocides & a fellow student, a white middle class woman, asked the professor, a survivor of the Rwandan genocide, not to show explicit media. He responded "if I survived living it, you can survive watching it."

I think CWs are important so pple can make informed choices about whether to engage. I don't agree that we just get rid of conscientious depictions of what pple suffer in reality.

How they're repeatedly failed by pple & institutions. How easy it is to lose pple's sympathy if your grief is wrathful. How it takes something from you that you don't ever get back. How other pple have a timeline for the phases of your grief & expect it to be linear.

The scene didn't feel edgy, it felt horrific and her response proportional to how she suffered. The show has its issues, but I think they did a relatively good job showing how survivors become isolated & alienated from pple who love them.

And drew the conclusion that bc the survivor was treated poorly by pple who love her bc she responded to her abuse with rage, that means the showwriters are not siding with survivors. I came to a different interpretation:

If you don't mind, in general & when I'm exhausted I've found that eating a solid meal before taking my meds helps it work better. So does movement like going for a walk while waiting for it to kick in, and staying hydrated. I'll occasionally drink coffee but it tends to make my tummy unhappy 😅

It was really cool and you don't have to make an appointment! The guava leaf is a dirty surprise. The dankness of patchouli with some woodiness and very very slight menthol. There a whisper of the funk in the fruit but not the unmistakable "this is guava" aroma

Omg you just put me on! I've never heard of this site. On our flight home with Xiamen airlines they had a really yummy coconut juice that I'm now obsessed with. The specific one they carry is an airline exclusive but on XHS folks recommend Coconut Palm brand which is on Weeee!

For additional context, prior to the last couple of months, we could get eggs at the same store for between $3.55-4.60 🫠
