I'm just like checking out who's out there and I'm already annoyed and exhausted
shorts with giraffes on them. hope that helps!
I'm slowly getting rid of the excessive kitchen gadget shit my lovely ex and his lovely mum gave me over the years and I didn't even know it was possible to be so relaxed closing a kitchen drawer easily instead of having to angrily rummage stuff around to get it to just slide shut
how is she such an operatic dog
am I not interacting? I'm saying what I think. you're the one who's taking everything personally when I'm an absolute stranger to you and putting out words like "attack" when I'm actually not hating or attacking anyone, just saying I think overall beige food parenting isn't great & makes kids unwell
yep and it's horrendous and we all need to do better to end the beige food nutrition desert. I have a friend who decided very early on that they were a gluten-free family when none of them needed to be. almost lost the friendship over it. it was none of my business but at the same time it was
I remember my aunty when I was little saying "a tin of peaches a day keeps the scurvy away" and wondering what the hell she was on about
you people and your cheese problems
I'm not against kids. I am against people allowing young children to dictate the menu to where it makes them unwell.
it's an issue very far beyond autism. I follow fascinating people on tiktok who have children that are allowed to say how much they want, and not eat things they don't want to, and they're invariably Asian, African, and Eastern European. you can give children a good palate without butter noodles
we are not going to agree on this so let's just hypothetically shake hands and move on.
oh you're an arfid mum I see. that tracks. I have a big family and a wide friend group and my friends & fam who didn't live in japan still don't put up with picky eating rubbish. it's failing to prepare your children for a world of delight and deliciousness. never mind not getting fucking scurvy
every time I go to a friend's house and they have kids I bring a sushi platter and/or a fruit platter and/or a delicious white bean dip with carrot sticks and they all go mad for it because they're ENCOURAGED and SUPPORTED in trying new things. I don't care if this is an unpopular opinion
we grew veges bc we were poor and they were yum, and we could choose 2 things not to eat. mine were mushrooms & brussels sprouts and my sister's were mushrooms & cabbage. we helped cook and learned about food. fuck chicken nugget parenting. this is my opinion so if you don't like it scroll past
I was younger & they had school lunches, learned about nutrition, helped grow & prepare much of the food themselves. the expectation & reality was that they ATE IT. I follow ppl whose kids crave kimchi & have eaten it since they were babies. enough pissing about with chicken bloody nugget parenting
who says I'm rushing? I've been discussing this for years. I have a cousin who cooks five separate beige meals every night, a niece who went to hospital for suspected appendix issues but it was just constipation bc of no fibre bc they allowed it. I'm a former teacher and lived in japan when -
wfh today and went down the road to get dog food in my gumboots, giraffe shorts and no bra in a huge baggy tshirt and ended up jump-starting this poor lady while two men dressed similarly to me me helped push her car into position for the jumper leads. seven men stood watching and trying to instruct
objectively better
NOBODY BELIEVED ME THAT I HAD TWO STUDENTS WITH SCURVY AND THEY SAID SCURVY DOESN'T HAPPEN ANYMORE
so suck on this lemon, or actually any piece of fruit, haters
and all you beige-food-enabling parents need to stop it
best wishes to the kid ofc
you have a better eye than me!!!
maybe the neighbour too. fix the fucking fence you wrecked, morons. I have a reduced commute and an anger problem and the neighbour is a cockhole with dickrot whose teenage son keeps me awake pacing on the deck screaming "FAECES" until 4am. fuck these people
heard back and they told me the fence is only half mine anyway so what is my problem. I got out the impact driver and screwed in a few bits of timber I had lying around, just so the dog doesn't take herself for a walk. next week though I have plans to bankrupt this contractor
I couldn't bear to leave without it!! and I love things with hidden secrets!
that blew my tiny little mind lol. it hadn't even occurred to me that this might not be as abstract as it seemed. anyway, buy art from emerging artists so they can keep doing it ok
the uni art auctions are great anywhere there's a fine arts programme
I was weirdly drawn to this artwork that I got at an AUT art auction then my friend with a fine arts degree stared at it for quite some time then goes "this painter, was she Chinese?" I said yes and how the fuck do you know that. he goes "because of all the Chinese ladies walking somewhere together"
kumeลซ show this weekend! it's the place to be if you want to see four thousand roosters and 89 goats and scratch a gentle cow behind the ear
completely agree
if not you then who
I asked my friend for a photo of her dog so mum can make a sculpture of him. this is what I got lol
I don't even reckon he's dead lol
