meal ideas!

low energy ("do not ask me to do any prep work at all, so help me god")

  • mozzerella cheese wrapped in pepperoni ("pizza tacos"!)
  • hummus and pretzels or naan (putting the naan in the microwave for like 10 seconds...heavenly)
  • canned chili (with shredded cheese and sour cream if you have it! boom done!)
  • instant miso soup (warm and lovely!)
  • cheese and cured meat, olives, canned fish, crackers, dried fruit, or whatever easy "charcuterie" type items you like
  • alternate bites of apple and spoonfulls of peanut butter (mixing honey or chocolate chips to the peanut butter is my favorite)
  • a "deconstructed sandwich": bites of lunch meat, pickles, cheese, cherry tomato, etc (I love roast beef and white cheddar for this)
  • yogurt and granola or fruit

medium energy ("I'll boil water but don't ask me to chop shit")

high energy ("I don't mind chopping some things up!")

other tips:

  • whenever you think of a meal you'd like to make, take 3 seconds to google search it, take a screenshot of the image results, and put it in a "food ideas" folder. instant visual menu!
  • if you're on instagram, there are a bajillion different recipe accounts that post videos! a few of my favorites: jipsoon_kitchen, eatwitzo, cordandthekitchen, chungeats, tiffy.cooks, two_plaid_aprons

This is all great!

I got this website from a nutritionist and it’s become my absolute favorite way to find new recipes. The search filter options are fantastic! Sorting by method really helps me because I think that’s what makes the biggest difference in how much energy you need.

And here are some other ideas for low/medium energy meals:

  • Cottage cheese with crackers, fruits and/or veggies.
  • Guacamole with veggies and/or tortilla chips
  • Chickpeas/garbanzo beans with tzatziki. You could add rice, lettuce/spinach, and/or pita.
  • Buffalo cauliflower with yogurt dip. You can roast or microwave the cauliflower, top it with hot sauce, and add bleu cheese or shredded cheddar on top.

is it just me or has 2023 been a horrible year for websites

i remember reading something awhile back about how every site, regardless of it's cultural impact or userbase, will always expire eventually and become a hostile, unusable ground as shareholders and people in charge do their best to "innovate"; progress for the sake of progress; just wring the last remaining drops of profit from it all. and it's like. well. i think shit might be starting to speed up on this front

The fact that on tumblr desktop, I cannot currently find any simple way to just get to the original post on an OP’s blog? Absurd. Works just fine on mobile. On desktop it just takes me to the OP’s main blog and I can’t find any actual way to get to the actual original post with one or two clicks. Infuriating. They’ve made the site less functional for literally no reason.

This doesn't solve the larger issue, but click the empty white space around the header, or for ease of direction, on the datestamp. It's stupid but there still is a way at least.

Are you kidding me.

europeans have types of racism i didn't even know existed

This kind of walkable, mixed use racism is illegal in many US cities.

Icelandic exchange student we hosted when I was 16: we don't have racism in Iceland, not in like the U.S.

Me: interesting.

IES: We also only have like a hundred Jews in the country and I only met one Black person ever before studying here. Also immigrants have to change their names to be Icelandic ones. Also-Also the Polish are stealing all our jobs.

Me: But you don't think you have racism?

IES: Nope, no racism, the U.S. has racism!

[paraphrased from several years ago]

NEVER ask a European what they think about Roma people this is not a joke
