I was trying to buy rice packets on Sunday (I need to eat something during the day & flavoured rice that you can just add water to & shove in the microwave for 5min works well) & it really annoyed me how many of the damn things had pasta in as well. I’M TRYING TO BE GLUTEN FREE
Btw just in case anyone wants to call me a hypocrite given my epic diet culture rant earlier, this is absolutely not “gluten free is healthier and you should do it roo” it’s “gluten makes me sick if I eat too much of it”
*too
The shelf was like
- 25 versions of the same plain rice
- quinoa
- FIFTY PACKETS OF RICE *mumble* with pasta *mumble*
I did eventually find some I wanted/could have, but srsly
I don’t need to be totally 1000% gluten free but I need to cut out the biggest gluten vectors like standard pasta, bread etc at least for a few weeks until my body recovers. Unfortunately there’s currently a shortage of the gluten free pasta I like, so I’m running out of options
Yes I could eat quinoa but - and I know this is heresy - I cannot fucking stand the texture

I wish massive celebrities would stop publicly saying they don’t bathe because every single time it makes the internet a very not fun place for disabled people who struggle to have showers and baths
“It’s more effort to wash at the sink than to have a shower” not if having a shower makes you fucking keel over because of chronic pain or dysautonomia
Some days I really want to shower but I don’t have the energy. Some days I can barely get out of bed and showering is not a priority compared to, you know, hydrating.
Some days my POTS is so bad I have to wait for Spouse to get home before I try to shower, bc it’s *dangerous*
For those not in the know - every time they’re starting a new tour NW does a “secret” kick-off concert in Finland under a fake name. You’d think someone who professes to love this band SO MUCH that they spew vitriol about tribute bands … would know this?
I’m absolutely not a fan gatekeeper, but I think if you’re going to pretend to love something so much that you spout reams of hate about covers/tributes/etc you should at least know what you’re talking about and not accidentally insult the thing you “love” in this way
First of all my family moved around a lot so “where I grew up” isn’t one place it’s three
Secondly (please imagine the Most Sarcastic Jane Austen Voice) DO FORGIVE ME for growing up in a cult with an abusive family and wanting to get as far away from all of that as possible, not to mention wanting to be with Spouse
