An on Fire Moron With a 1000° Knife

(If it depends then know I am thinking specifically about general public polls that range from economics to well being)

Image ID: three screenshots of social media posts by @thenutritiontea on facebook.

1st image: "When I think about processed foods I think about how I work with families in public health and many kids have food sensory sensitivities and foods that are processed are their safe foods. I think about how parents are so scared because they read hit pieces about processed foods and think they are wrong for figuring out how to feed their child so their child grows and lives. I also think about how I work with kids and get them to try new fresh foods as well that many of them are scared to try."

2nd image: "True story - a parent was almost in tears today because her child has sensory difficulties and cannot eat fresh fruits and vegetables. We tried giving him a piece of banana and he expelled it right away crying (no he's not allergic).

"I want her to know and to remember that she's doing a great job. She's giving him packaged food in order to feed him and nourish him. This is more than okay because we are all individual and food affects us differently."

Trevor Noah has a great tip, that when he craves ice cream at night he breaks it down into parts: I want something cold, I want something sweet. He drinks a glass of cold water then waits to see if he still has the ice cream craving. Usually he doesn’t.

So listening to your body isn’t “follow every urge” but “decompose the urge to discover the underlying need.”

If you always feel like getting cozy in bed you may be: cold, dehydrated, and/or malnourished (maybe a need for high calories that are bioaccessible…not processed).

If you do not feel tired at bedtime you may: need to eat dinner earlier because your body is still digesting, need to exercise or go outside more during the day, get the fuck off your screen for an hour so your brain can enter sleep mode.

Hope this helps someone.

Synopsis: The benefits of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs (like semaglutide) are frequently overstated due to selective reporting, industry influence, and widespread conflicts of interest in both research and media coverage.

While they can produce short-term weight loss, results vary widely, often plateau within a year, and are difficult to maintain—especially since discontinuation leads to rapid weight regain and loss of health benefits.

Cardiovascular benefits are modest and inconsistently distributed across populations, and adverse effects—ranging from common gastrointestinal issues to serious complications—may be underreported.

It mattered to Izuku, and he didn't like it, and he called Katsuki out several times for it.

Izuku chose to forgive Katsuki for it. For all of it. Because this is a story about reaching out and offering people a hand, even when they may not deserve it.

The Vestiges said it themselves, citing Kacchan specifically as an example: Izuku is the person who will always choose the HEART that lies inside of someone and reach out.

He chose Kacchan's heart a long ass time ago. He never held a grudge on him a day in his life, only knew that Katsuki COULD be better, and he became excited as Katsuki slowly grew into that person, into his friend. ("I never thought that I could be able to have a normal-ish conversation with Kacchan....I'm too blessed!")

You can disagree with that choice, and bullying in real life is of course a different animal all together than in fiction. but it is intrinsically part of who Izuku is as a character, and how he has literally always been written. He tries to save Shigaraki, the BBEG hellbent on destroying the world, for god's sake.

It's also intrinsically part of Katsuki to have tried to make up for his past shit, and he NEVER expects Izuku to forgive or treat him any different! He literally says, "it doesn't change a thing" during his apology, but he does the fucking work anyway, including devoting himself to helping Izuku bear the burden of OFA, and risking his damn life again and again to help Izuku. And on top of all that, he leads the project and throws the most money out of his whole class into the OFA suit that is meant to give Izuku his dream back, It could even be that it was at least in part, his idea in the first place! (Obvs that speculation BUT I'm betting it was him and AllMight's idea)

And yes, he HAS done the work, not just through his actions, but through heavy introspection; if you're paying attention to him in the narrative and not just viewing him as a one note character who is angry all the time for no reason, you can see when he gets quiet and thinks.

To be real fucking honest, I wasn't even expecting him to state his apology so raw, so explicitly like that in the first place. It's a Shonen action, after all. But Horikoshi wrote it as one of the most emotional beats of the story, tied up in the deepest most intense relationships of the story.

The implicit and explicit development that Hori put into Katsuki is insane if you're listening to him instead of viewing him as nothing more than a shitty bully archetype.

Whether it's deserving of forgiveness was always up to only the character in the narrative, Izuku, to decide. BC this is fiction, and these are characters, and they serve a purpose to a theme.
