I won’t be participating in the boycott Olympics. I don’t have the time or energy, and all of these corporations are garbage. Plus, I have to eat. What I will do in 2025 is reduce my consumption overall, eat simple meals, reuse, mend, borrow. Feed the capitalist monster as little as possible.

Seeing all the Evangelicals upset Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde asked our leadership to be Christ-like is wild after they’ve spent decades imposing their version of Christianity on us. Goes to show it was never about Jesus.

With the threat of H5N1 looming and other health crises, we should all be concerned
New: Trump officials have paused all external communications at health agencies like CDC, FDA, NIH.

No health alerts and the famed MMWRs; no updates to key websites or social media posts.

And no indication how long the pause will last.

With @rachelroubein.bsky.social + Lena Sun.
Trump officials pause health agencies’ communications, citing review
The agencies are charged with making decisions that touch the lives of every American and are the source of crucial information to health-care providers.

Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde is what a true Christ follower looks like. Few of those called Christians make efforts to be like Christ

I miss the early days of social media. When it was still about connecting with people. When we spent hours coding in HTML to personalize our MySpace pages. When we dropped entire photo albums on Facebook and our friends actually looked at all of them. When instagram was still about pictures.

It’s wild when you’re a vegan who cares about animals AND humans 🫢

Don’t even get me started on how the health vegan trends of the 2010s triggered a wave of eating disorders. How many fruit mono-meal girlies are still vegan today?

My insomnia induced ramblings for today: Health veganism (WFPB, HCLF, raw vegan, raw till 4, etc)is a stain on the vegan movement and paved the way for the ex-vegan to keto/carnivore pipeline #vegan

The diet culture shift from quinoa, ancient grains, and smoothie bowls with “exotic” ingredients to raw milk, so-called animal based diets, and “traditional” Weston Price style diet has been yet another cultural canary in a coal mine of the impending rise of white supremacist Christo-fascism.

People sometimes ask why we have to legislate against raw milk. Why stop other people from risking their health?

There are a few biggies, but the one that stands out for me is children. I don't care if some ignorant libertarians regularly shit their pants, but raw milk kills kids.

Joins BlueSky, uses starter pack to find folks to follow, creates starter pack to help other RDs find each other, gets immediately labeled as spam for sharing starter pack 🤦🏽‍♀️
