Every single person I know who did football in high school, without exception, has a chronic injury. Many regret what it's done to their knees and back, even major organs like the brain.
There is no serious legislative push to ban high school football.
Also, like, if you want to talk about social pressure on minors to undertake activities that will result in regrettable, irreversible damage to their bodies:
No one, *ever*, tried to persuade me to transition.
My gym teacher tried to persuade me to try out for the football team almost every single day that I was in junior high.
#i firmly believe that the reason why concussions and brain damage in general#are not taken nearly as seriously as they should be#is because of football#if we take concussions and brain trauma seriously then we have to acknowledge the risks that children are undertaking at even#high school level football#but we can't do that#because the kids need to play football in high school so they can play football in college so they can join the NFL#This time I'm really gonna queue it.
I recently watched this video by hydn called “The Great Concussion Denial” and holy fucking shit. Made me sick to my stomach. The tldr is that it’s all the NFL pushing football on kids but that’s really diluting the story

Bodily autonomy (like abortion, anti draft, etc) -> “The government shouldn’t be able to force anything on my body I don’t want.”
Anti surveillance -> “I don’t trust big government/big tech (big brother if you’re feeling frisky) with the ability to spy on me and my family.”
Immigration -> “Next to all of us immigrated at some point, I don’t see why the elites get to decide who’s allowed to be where. What’s to stop them coming for me?”
Climate Change -> “Big oil shouldn’t get to determine whether or not I get to go places. I don’t want to be dependent on some big business to survive.”
State Violence -> “I don’t want the goddamn secret police breathing down my neck! I trust my community a whole hell of a lot more to help me than I do the state!”
The vast majority of conservatives think of themselves as underdogs being repressed by the government/the elite, and they value personal freedom (specifically their personal freedom, they don’t care about other people). The will almost always agree with leftist points if you can find a way to blame the problem on their vague enemies (useful, since rich people are the root of most problems), and tie it back to their ability to say fuck everyone else. NEVER appeal to science, theory, logic, or human goodness. Make it seem as if you are a paranoid lunatic who trusts no one. They love it.
#you need to tailor your arguments to people's existing values and priorities if you want to convince them #the flip side is that it's every bit as easy to tailor conservative arguments to convince a leftist audience #so don't get smug #you're not immune to this either <- prev extremely true

i generally do think that people who think that garcia is just so so mean to trinity do not really understand that trinity is an unreliable narrator when it comes to their relationship. at least on that day. she's faced with someone she trusts leaving, someone who hurt her so bad that it caused her to relapse her self-harm being back at work, and there is a new person coming in to take over the department who so far has been quite strict with her. and to top it all off, her casual relationship is calling off their fun night. she is seeing just about everything in a negative light right now. and because of her previous trauma, her brain is not going to be interpreting everything accurately or in good faith. so yeah, garcia, who she cutely smiles at and seeks out, who she clearly is on good terms with, becomes someone who used her as a 'stress relief squeeze toy' for cancelling plans. because to her, everyone leaves, all the bad things keep happening, and she has no one.
i thought we all realised that trinity's view of those around her is objectively more negative than how the reality is. i think as a viewer we were supposed to see that trinity is immensely struggling that day and that she has an incredible amount of negativity in her brain at that time. i mean, she says the squeeze toy comment in the same scene that she grabs a literal scalpel to intend to hurt herself even more. she told langdon he should have gone to jail and that he should confess that he stole meds. her words are that of someone who is objectively doing terribly and do not accurately reflect reality. idk, i feel like we're being very harsh on garcia. she is of course not perfect(and neither is trinity), but she is also a person outside of trinity's viewpoint and we should really try and interrogate that characters words are sometimes not fully accurate.
I agree Santos is an unreliable narrator, but I’m going to go by Garcia’s actions in the show. I think it’s diminishing her character by narrowing her to being simply misunderstood by Santos when she’s someone a lot of lesbians know: a fuckboy. She’s just casual—she does want Santos, but she’s very ‘bros before hoes’ and that’s not unusual!
However: Garcia had sex with Santos. She’s seen her scars and then says ‘talk to a therapist’ after ignoring her concerns about working with someone she whistleblew on. The first time Garcia didn’t believe Santos, it made sense—she’d just met her and she knew Langdon. So she called her trouble and ONLY THEN stopped flirting (even the scalpel didn’t stop her!). But after 10 months, when Langdon is gone and after your situationship clearly said ‘I think he’s stealing drugs’ and ‘he’s gone because he stole’—it’s now loyalty to friends over partner.
I like Garcia! She’s driven and clearly attracted to Santos as she keeps bringing her up around coworkers. But if you can’t respect the person you’re with enough to listen to their valid concerns, it does demean them. Garcia doesn’t back Santos up or support her like she does Langdon. She knows Santos whistleblew and is aware of what Langdon did, but still tells Santos to stop talking about it and to get over it. She values the hierarchy of her peers over the woman she’s fucking. It makes sense as she’s a surgeon and probably had to fight to prove her competency—she might have been giving tough-love advice that worked for her at the time but is maladaptive now. But then it’s like when Santos told the fentanyl survivor to focus on friends and school—it doesn’t fix the situation at all and actually makes things worse.
It’s telling that Whitaker thinks Garcia is not good for Santos. There’s a lot about Santos/Garcia that interests me, and I don’t think Garcia is abusive or unusually toxic (again, she’s like a fuckboy that caught feelings). But you can’t say that Garcia’s actual actions regarding Langdon and Santos (not just Santos’ perceptions of them) are not harsh on their own.
hi! i appreciate this addition, but i think you kind of missed my point. what i was trying to say, was not that garcia is perfect or that all of the negativity is only in trinity's head; my point was that if people base their entire view on what trinity says, that it doesn't paint the full picture. i think within the context of season one and two, it's it's hard to see garcia pick professionalism over trinity's side, but that doesn't mean she's a terrible person for that, especially not if their relationship is strictly casual to garcia. they are not partners, they are not big time dating, it's casual!
you're very right that garcia has done quite a few things that are hurtful, but a lot of it is, like you said, tough love advice which doesn't land well, like the therapy comment(which i also thought was very harsh), and telling her to get over it. that is hurtful, that is something she should have not said if she knows trinity well enough. but to me it's a clear display that their relationship is casual, a lot more casual than trinity was hoping. but that is not garcia's fault. trinity clearly is upset by this, but when people only base their feelings about how they affect trinity, and not the context of garcia behaving in a way that aligns with a casual relationship, i feel like it gets taken out of context.
if garcia sees their relationship as strictly casual with not a lot of emotional attachment, and trinity sees it as a lot more, you can imagine that all of garcia's words and actions would hit trinity a lot harder given the day that she's having.
because when we see garcia clearly wanting to be professional at their workplace, not picking any specific side in the conflict and not wanting anything to escalate, and then making that therapy comment? yeah, of course trinity thinks that garcia doesn't give a shit about her, even if that's not true. and to people who feel very protective of trinity, it doesn't get put in context and they don't try and see what garcia might be thinking or what her perspective of the situation might be. and my post was just to illustrate that there is a lot more to contextualise about their interactions than just 'trinity is upset'.
she is harsh sometimes, and not always as empathetic as trinity needs; like i said i think they have differing perspectives on how casual it is which is causing a lot of friction in their relationship, but that doesn't mean garcia is a villain. they clearly have not communicated properly about what their relationship is and are interpreting it differently, and that is not a singular person's fault. the context of it all is far more than just how trinity sees their relationship, which is what i was trying to say.
and i also wanted to say that i think only focusing on the negative things of garcia's character or how she's portrayed also doesn't give an accurate reflection of her full character. her and trinity are both complicated people who are not communicating their wants or needs as they should, and neither of them are the villain. they are both flawed individuals who are working with what they've got and that's fine!
Hey thank you for replying, I really enjoy your posts about the Pitt! I think I probably did misunderstand you, sorry—I did think you were implying that Garcia being unsupportive with the Langdon situation didn’t really reflect objective reality and that it was all coming from Santos’ unreliable narration. But I do agree with you about everything else!
Garcia’s a complex character, not a terrible person or a villain, I want to be clear! And I hope I didn’t come off that way in my post. I just think objectively these are harsh things to say or do, even to a strictly casual situationship, with this kind of whistleblowing scenario. But you’re right that doesn’t make Garcia a terrible person! It only means she’s both really casual about the relationship and doesn’t want to rock the boat at her hospital. Like you said, they’re both flawed characters and are doing their best. Again I apologize that I misunderstood where you were coming from!
Also I thought ‘fuckboy’ is someone who pursues casual sex without romantic commitment? Where I’m from, the lack of commitment is what makes someone a fuckboy, not promiscuity, and I’ve only seen it used with white dudes and white lesbians. But if there are racial connotations I’ll stop using it!
This is interesting to me because I read that scene very differently! I actually think Garcia was (trying to be) supportive about the Langdon thing. I think she was unsuccessful, and I think the "call a therapist" line was quite harsh especially as an end-note to that conversation, but for most of the conversation I didn't think she was being mean to Santos at all.
I rewatched just to refresh my memory and make sure I hadn't missed anything, and for my own sake here's a quick transcript of their conversation in the hallway after Garcia chided Santos for being snide in front of a patient:
S: Hey.
G: Hey.
[they both pass each other, S turns around]
S: Are we okay?
G: [stops, half-turns] Uh, yeah. [fully turns and approaches S] Why?
S: I don't know. [approaches G] You kind of ripped me a new one in front of Langdon. [crosses arms and glances away] Whose side are you on?
G: This isn't middle school. Langdon made a mistake and owned up to it. Let it go.
S: [raising her hand and her voice] He should -- [catches herself and returns to a more neutral posture and voice] He should have been fired. But instead, he waltzes back in here, no big deal. Meanwhile, I've been a goddamn pariah for the last 10 months for doing the right thing.
G: [raises her eyebrows and tilts her head] Or maybe you're a pariah because you don't play well with others.
S: [looks away, visibly upset]
G: If you've still got beef with Langdon, go tell him. He's here to stay, so put on your big-girl panties and work it out.
S: He is not--
G: [interrupting] Nope. If you want to have sex and eat ramen in bed, I'm your girl. [voice becoming more firm] But if you want to talk about this Langdon shit -- again -- call a therapist.
Now. Was this good communication that helped Santos when she needed reassurance? No, clearly not; Santos leaves the conversation even more upset than before. But Garcia is listening and is acknowledging that there's a problem. Her response is just that Santos also needs to acknowledge the reality of the problem -- Langdon is here, regardless of any "should" -- and go from there. She's also, pretty gently IMO, pointing out that Santos is misattributing being a "pariah" to this conflict with Langdon...even though, as we see Santos admit in her fight with him later, she's one of a handful of people who knows what happened at all. She can't be a pariah because everyone sees her as a snitch, when 99% of the department has no clue what happened.
This is one of the negative distortions that is coloring Santos's day. It's honestly not clear that she is a pariah at all. Outside of her interactions with Langdon and Al-Hashimi, she seems noticeably more comfortable and connected to everyone she works with compared to S1. She slips immediately into joking and birthday-planning with Javadi and Princess and Perla and Huckleberry and even Dana. She talks shit about Al-Hashimi to Robby in front of others, suggesting a level of comfort with all of them. One of her recurring plot points is that people are too interested in talking to her while she's trying to catch up on charting. I can't recall any indication, besides her words in her most negative and vulnerable moments, that what she's afraid of is even happening.
So, all of that said, I agree that Garcia was harsh in the end and I would have approached that conversation differently (and would want to be approached differently). But I'm not sure that Garcia could have said anything that would satisfy what Santos wanted to hear in that moment. Because I don't think that conversation was really about Langdon, and I think that's what pissed Garcia off.
Santos wants to know if she and Garcia are okay. She's hurt that Garcia said "rain check" to the night she hoped for, and she's even more hurt that Garcia called out her behavior in front of their patient. Garcia seems willing to talk about it. Santos asks for reassurance while she's headed somewhere, but she stops and gives her full attention. She moves to close the gap between them first; her body language is open and attentive; her face and tone of voice are softer than we typically see her. We've seen enough of Garcia to know her style -- she is often short, abrasive, and too busy to linger. We frequently catch her lobbing one last sarcastic jab over her shoulder while she pulls off her gloves and heads to her next case. But here, she's giving 100% of her focus to Santos, no rush, no sarcasm, no eye-rolling, no indication that she's just waiting to leave.
And Santos, asking to talk about their relationship, nearly immediately pivots to talk about Langdon instead. From Garcia's exasperated "again" in her last line (and from the scene with Whitaker not long after****), I got the sense that this is far from the first time that Santos has retreated to a more comfortable topic when she's feeling vulnerable. The conflict with Langdon is obviously stressful, but from what we know of Trinity I think it's way less intimidating for her than answering "why" she wants reassurance from Garcia. She's so clearly been wronged by Langdon, and that is an easier framing for her to process her feelings. It's not so easy to acknowledge that she behaved badly herself. It's not so easy to admit that she's hurt, or that she wants her relationship with Garcia to be less casual. She uses detachment and righteous anger as shields for her loneliness and tender heart, so much so that she might not even be able to admit what she wants from Garcia to herself. So she's reaching out, but when Garcia wants to respond and understand, she can't explain. She defaults to the thing she does understand instead: she was wronged.
As someone who has also fallen into that pattern a lot in my life, and as someone who nearly married a person who did the same: it's fucking exhausting. It is so, so understandable to me, but that doesn't make it less exhausting. There is fundamentally no Correct Answer when someone you love presents an issue between the two of you through the squished lens of some other problem that you're not directly involved in and cannot address. At best, you can agree that they were wronged and their response is appropriate, which might assuage some of their fears (but never all, because they won't share what's really on their mind)...but that option sucks when you have your own issues with how they acted, or when you feel like your response was warranted too.
So to me, "if you want to have sex and eat ramen in bed, I'm your girl" seemed more like..."if you want reassurance that I want to be with you, here it is." Because I think Garcia does see that Santos is upset and she understands, on some level, that Trin is seeking validation about their relationship. "But if you want to talk about this Langdon shit, again, call a therapist" IS HARSH, no doubt about it. But it reads to me like frustration that Garcia is still being held at arm's length, and probably hearing similar versions of this frequently when Trinity gets spooked and can't communicate why. And, frankly, "call a therapist" isn't bad advice. If Santos is so impacted by this conflict that her work is affected, she would probably benefit from talking about it to a neutral party. This is absolutely not the right way to propose it, but I don't think Garcia is saying that to be cruel. Santos clearly takes it as a jab and is hurt by it, and that's an important part of how this communication failed, but I don't see it as Garcia being dismissive as many others seem to.
****I also think it's notable that this dynamic is paralleled with Whitaker not long after. Santos grabs the scalpel in her next scene after Garcia looks warmly into her eyes, compliments her work, and calls her by her first name. To me, this suggests that Santos is (still) feeling very conflicted about their relationship specifically. Whitaker checks in with her, in part because she's also been noticeably pissed at him for hours (because she believes he's moving out). She deflects initially, and then when pushed, she brings up...Langdon again. But that's not really what she's upset about in this moment! She's upset firstly about Garcia, and in a very close second she's upset at him. She shares neither of those directly when asked, although her complaints about feeling rejected are stated more openly ('people say we're family here but no one really cares', IMO a reflection of feeling betrayed by both him and Garcia). She only shares what's on her mind, and only vaguely, when he responds with sympathy. "Garcia likes you" becomes "Garcia uses me as a sex squeeze toy." But "I'm sorry, that sucks" also becomes "what do you care?" I think it's pretty clear that Whitaker does care...so I'm not sure we should take her similarly negative view of Garcia, right before that, as indicative of their dynamic. And I'm not sure that if Garcia responded by saying "I'm sorry, that sucks", she'd get anything different than Santos lashing out at Whitaker -- because Santos doesn't really want sympathy about Langdon in that conversation; she wants to communicate how hurt she feels about Garcia, and she just can't. Any sympathy that Garcia could offer, much like Whitaker's, would probably fall flat there too because it's not what Santos actually needs. Langdon is just the vessel for her emotions about relationships that mean much, much more to her, so much that she's afraid of them.

In January 2020, I attended Dr. Amy Cook's PLAY WAY seminar at Pasadena Humane Society. The seminar was about "social play" as a tool for rehabilitating reactive/stressed/fearful dogs.
"Social Play" has been defined as something different from playing with toys (tug, fetch, etc.) It is literally "goofing around" with your dog in a way that they like, that makes them happy. Body language responsiveness, movement and timing is everything.
Not only did we get to see some inspiring and entertaining video footage of Amy Cook playing with her dogs, some attendees had also brought their own dogs to play with, while Amy offered coaching.
We saw the Play Way live!
It was an amazing and delightful experience and I couldn't wait to get home to play with my 15 year old Boogie (now passed on) who hadn't been interested in Tug or Fetch in over a year due to his vision loss. The Play Way class was like learning a new language, a new vocabulary to play with my dog.
This infographic cannot possibly do justice to all the material covered in the Play Way seminar, which also focused on play as "therapy". For now, I hope this is enough to pique everyone's interest in the subject and how to be mindful and respectful of our dog's body language and of our own body language in conversations with our dog.
Also read: Whole Dog Journal article on The Play Way
Image description and text under readmore.
Description begins.
[image: Five pairs of dogs showing playful behaviors. From left to right: A dog playbows to another, a dog hipbumps another, a dog chases another dog that is running away, a larger dog rolls on its back, playfully wiggling to a smaller dog, and lastly, two dogs play bitey face.]
The Play Way with Amy Cook PhD. playwaydogs.com
illustrated by Lili Chin doggiedrawings.net
Social Play is an excellent way for a dog to be in a happy state of mind and to be physically relaxed or loosened up. Playing also lets us know if a dog is truly relaxed or concerned about anything, so we can more effectively help them feel better.
Good play is an INVITATION. We invite our dog when they are looking at us, not when they are busy. We don't pressure them, as grabbiness, pushiness, and nagging are a turn-off. Pause and greet again before making a new suggestion. If your dog doesn't take up your suggestion but is still attentive, try something new.
FLIRT! Use SUSPENSE.
Not all play involves touching, but good play will have an element of suspense! Take pauses. Do not rush.
Yes: Start with slower, softer energy.
Yes: Give your dog plenty of room to move around freely.
Yes: Invite, wait, listen to your dog's response (body language)
Yes: Take "no" as an answer. PAUSE. Try something different.
No: Don't make your dog feel trapped or overwhelmed.
No: Don't make your dog wrong.
You want your dog to feel SAFE to open up and play with you.
IF you touch your dog, use the 3-SECOND RULE. Pull back after 3 seconds, staying engaged. Does your dog come back to you?
[Image sequence: Greet: A human claps their hands then says hi and reaches their palms out towards a small dog, which wags its tail. Friendly Pause: The human pauses, kneeling on the ground gently reaching out towards the dog, which stands still, confused. The human leans back, bringing their arms back in. The dog orients to them, thinking: “maybe”. Greet Again, New Invitation: The human turns away from the dog, folding down towards the ground and turning their face to look at the dog from over their shoulder. They say, hello! The dog approaches the human. Then, the human taps their fingers along the ground, and the dog playfully investigates, thinking “interesting”. Finally, the human leans back up, still kneeling, playfully wiggling their fingers in the air in front of them, and the dog happily play bows.]
With SOCIAL PLAY, the use of toys or food is not essential because you are not teaching your dog how to play. You are playing with your dog and learning what they like!
[Image: A vertical gradient scale goes from a reddish 8 at the top to a yellow 1 down at the bottom. A dash-line box encloses the numbers 5, 4, and 3, and the happy faces of a human and dog.]
Be in your dog's ENERGY RANGE!
What is your dog's energy level?
If your dog is overexcited (eg, 8) slow down to a 6-7.
If your dog is unsure or shy (eg, 2) try 1-3.
Play is a CONVERSATION. Here are some ideas to develop a "play vocabulary" with your dog:
YOU are the PREDATOR!
* Stay on the floor
[Image: Four vertically aligned orange squares showing play moves: 1. “Claw” Hands- Hands outstretched, fingers curled into “claws”. 2. Flat Hands- Hand outstretched, fingers pressed flat together, wrist bent back. 3. “Bitey” hands- A variation on “claw” hands where the fingers wriggle to “bite”. 4. “HAR” mouth- a human with their mouth open in a bitey-face gesture.]
[Image: A series of play interactions between a human and a dog. 1. The human play bows at the dog, kneeling with their arms splayed out onto the floor, saying “I’m gonna getcha!” 2. The human holds claw hands out towards the dog- Suspense! 3. The human gently pushes the dog back on the chest, saying “Silly puppy!” The dog pushes back towards the hand. 4. The human uses bitey hand to gently grab at the dog’s muzzle, and says “Bite you!” 5. The human uses a finger to poke the dog’s butt. 6. “Head butt!” The human gets on all fours and butts into the dog’s side with their head. 7. The human uses bitey hand to grab at the dog’s butt. “Bite your butt!”]
YOU are the PREY!
[Image: Four vertically aligned orange squares showing play moves: 1. Hiding face- A human hides their face behind their hands. 2. Pulling away- A human on all fours leans away from the action. 3. Piano hands- a human dances their fingers across the floor. 4. Rolling, flopping over- a human rolls onto their back, legs in the air and arms folded into their chest.]
[Image: A series of play interactions between a human and a dog. 1. A human crawls away from a dog on all fours, then peeks over their shoulder at the dog, asking “Gonna get me?”. Then, the dog jumps up onto the kneeling human. The human rolls onto their back and celebrates with the dog, “You got me!” 2. The human kneels, folded forward onto the floor doing piano hands. They say “Hello”. The dog approaches, and the human hides their face from the dog. Then, the dog fake bites the human’s cheek, tail wagging. 3. A dog watches curiously as a human shakes out a blanket. The human then hides under the blanket and the dog climbs up onto them, thinking “You silly! I get you!”]
How is your dog responding?
[Image: a human kneels on the floor and watches as the dog walks away from them. It thinks “need to look.”]
If your dog disconnects from you and looks towards something more interesting or concerning (that is not too close), let them process the other thing. Don't pressure them to come back to you.
When you let your dog look and dismiss the other thing on their own, the more of their attention that you really have when you get it!
NOPE. You are being WEIRD.
[Image: four examples of a dog showing stress. 1. Look Away: A dog turns and looks away. 2. Shake off- A dog shakes off like they’re wet. 3. Stress yawn- A dog yawns. 4. Busy Sniffing- a dog sniffs the ground.]
At first you may get a lot of "Not Now"s. If your dog shows confused signals or becomes busy doing other stuff, hold back. (Especially with the “shy" dogs) Your dog may not understand what you are doing.
When they approach you again, check your energy level, greet again, and try something different.
[Image: A human wiggles their fingers at a dog, which play bows with an open mouth and says “Bite you!”. Another drawing of the dog play bowing facing forwards and panting, tail wagging.]
When you do something that your dog likes, they will keep coming back to you. Their bodies are loose and curved. They may roll around, jump on you, or fake-bite you. They may even laugh!
Now that you know what your dog likes, you can do it over and over again!
Then you’re gonna love this photo of Annie Jump Canon.
Working at Harvard in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s as a “Computer”, Annie Jump Cannon cataloged stars using their spectra from photographic plates, in an effort to understand the mysteries and peculiarities of stellar spectra.
This was hard, detailed, nuanced work. By 1889, three years into her work, she had classified over 1,000 stars. By 1913, she could classify 200 stars an hour. She could classify three stars a minute, just by sight. Using a magnifying glass, she could classify stars down to 9th magnitude, 16 times fainter than the human eye can see. And she did this all with exceptional accuracy.
Over the course of her career, she personally classified more than 350,000 stars, accounting for a mind-boggling 98% of all contemporary stellar spectra classifications, a feat that wouldn’t be bested until the 1990’s with automated digital sky surveys.
Cannon used these classifications to develop the Harvard spectral classification system (O–B–A–F–G–K–M), organizing stars by surface temperature and physical properties.
It is hard to overstate just how foundational her work was to modern astronomy and astrophysics. Her classifications have enabled more than a century of breakthroughs in stellar structure and evolution, including the understanding of how stars change over time and how temperature, luminosity, and composition are related. The system underpins the Hertzsprung–Russell (HR) diagram, one of the most important tools in astrophysics, and remains embedded in modern research, from stellar population studies to galaxy evolution.
The immense scale of her work was itself a massive contribution to astronomy. For comparison, before Cannon, star catalogs contained between 600 and 4,000 stars. Her work single-handedly proved that large-scale stellar classification was both feasible and scientifically valuable. She helped establish systematic star catalogs as a core method of modern astronomy and laid the groundwork for astrophysical research on stellar structure, evolution, and populations that continues today.

Pleased to report that after a day of this i am not longer craving caper brine and my mouth is not dry as usual. There's some good suggestions in the notes too that I want to try.
-ancient roman posca: water, red or white wine vinegar, honey, salt, herbs (coriander, mint, thyme)
-switchel: water, ginger, vinegar, sweetener, lemon, salt
