  • I’m experimenting with a similar thing, but with Lentils. Kind of a Dahl. I’ve recently learned about a mirepoix and I’m trying to meld it into as many things as I can. I threw blitzed carrot, onion, garlic, celery, and broccoli stems, in pot until softened, added tomato paste, a red chilli meal base I had laying around, seared the spices a little then, tin tomatoes, Lentils, split peas, (yellow and green), cooked till it tasted cooked, I have no idea. Added a tin of coconut cream at end, cooked a few more minutes. Turned out great, needed lemon, but I didn’t add that because a kid hates it. I also added Greek yogurt. Bloody lovely, needed more spice, but I have the spice tolerance to kill a buffalo, so if I’m cooking for other people, I try not to do that.

    I’m determined to keep a container with roughly chopped carrot, onion, celery, to blitz and add to stuff. It’s been super useful. Seared it and Added it to a pumpkin soup the week before.


  • Yes, but you’re leaving out the bit where the ceos are just as shitty a person / people, morally, as the board you talk about. They aren’t forced, they go along and agree. They hire people who align with their interests, aka agree with the shitty things they’re willing to do. It’s not like they’re some poor hard done by millionaire / billionaire who’s forced to do bad things to survive. They could also leave at any time and they wouldn’t suffer financially for doing so. They’re not being forced to do anything. They agree with their own decisions. Don’t fool yourself that they have morals, money to that degree turns your morals off entirely, if you ever had them.


  • Because it takes the edge off anxiety? I haven’t even been on it all that long and I entirely forgot it did this. Holy crap, what was I even like before! I remember being in constant pain from the migraines. More pain than I even noticed I was in, weirdly enough. Is it helping your migraines? My head still feels like Swiss cheese, or something. But more brain fog and heavy than pain, now.


  • I have just discovered chia pudding. If you like Boba tea, (is that what it’s called?) it’s got that same bubble poppy, feel, if you don’t, puree / grind the chia first. 1tbsp chia, Add whatever flavor you like, chocolate pudding mix, drinking chocolate, whatever. And a cup of whatever milk you like (or water). (I add some flax meal but it kinda tastes like dirt a little, especially if you put too much.) add whatever protein powder, pea protein is flavourless. Bam, tastes like chocolate pudding. Good fibre, good brain food (aka omega something something) I actually find I have more energy when I eat it. I make a jar of it and just have a couple of table / tea spoons a day. Good for a few days to a week. Oh, wait a few hours to overnight for it to solidify.
