@vantiss @patchuun maybe? this site looks ok...

@patchuun I think I remember seeing a post scheduler for mastodon before but I forget what it was called, and tbh I'm not sure I should trust it

I wonder if it's possible to draft or queue posts here?

food is amazing. seriously

My really close friend is fucked for money right now through no fault of her own.

She's a profoundly marginalized Black trans woman, and she's having trouble getting enough food to eat.

Do throw an inordinate, irresponsible amount of money at her if you are able and you are relatively secure.

Superfoods are more than simply an increasingly pervasive marketing strategy or sham, as some critics argue. They are what anthropologists call a folk category, a way people classify the world around them, and in this case foods. The growing presence of items marketed as superfoods underscores the concept’s salience for consumers and its ability to evolve to meet new and changing values around food, health, and science. Superfoods serve as modern day totems that symbolize authenticity, alternative medicine, traditional knowledge, and now even nutrition-maxxing. Poignantly, they also signal personal and individualized redemption from the perceived consequences of less healthy dietary choices.

More than two decades ago, anthropologist Carole Counihan wrote that food trends serve as a prism that both reflects and refracts, as well as unites different cultural phenomena. Considering the contradictions around super-processed superfoods, as well as understanding the motivations of those who produce and consume them, can shed light on our current moment, when Americans are questioning what healthy eating even means and having to make choices within a modern-day food system build around delivering shelf-stable, ultra-processed foods.

We note that the rise of highly processed superfood gummies, chews, powders, sodas, and the like focuses Americans’ attention away from the real and deeply rooted constraints many consumers face around food and eating, such as access, time, and disillusionment with traditional nutritional and health authorities. And, ironically, while being sold as real food and not as medicine, these items more closely resemble candy or junk food than what we otherwise think of as healthy or so-called real food.

@kyouu the fudge one? apparently the chocolate in that is unsweetened so that's good

@skinnylatte my dad thought he could cook but he really couldn't. once when I was a kid he made "creme of spinach soup" by putting spinach and expired milk in a blender and boiling it

new take: white American pagans thinking that being non-Christian automatically makes them more leftist decolonial etc. is just spiritual bypassing but applied to settler colonialism

someone made a website of fake online meetings where you listen to AIs babble so you look like you're too busy to go to your real meetings
