What Are You Doinf To My Poast

When I was a kid, I would only eat the yolk from an egg. Didn’t matter if it was boiled, fried, poached or deviled, the yolk was all I wanted.

My reason for this was “the white makes me feel sick”/“it hurts my tummy”. And everyone did what most folk do when kids say such things, they roll their eyes and call you a fussy eater and complain to anyone who will listen about how hard your child is to feed.

They won’t eat sandwich meat, they won’t eat minced beef, they won’t eat nuts, they won’t eat tomatoes, they won’t eat pasta, they won’t eat fish or spinach, they barely eat fruits and ugh you should see the tantrum they kick up when you try to give them yogurt for a healthy snack. And get this, they will only eat the yolk from eggs. What an annoying kid, right?

So, anyway, as it turns out egg whites are high in histamine while egg yolks are not. Everything I listed up there, is actually high in histamine or is histamine releasing and as someone who just found out after 20+ years of abject misery and several near misses with anaphylaxis that they have histamine intolerance disorder/possible MCAS, I feel really fucking validated about childhood me being a fussy eater.

So uh, pro tip to parents, while there is every chance your kid genuinely is a fussy eater, please also consider that there may also be something at play going on and they’re not just doing it to personally piss you off. Whether it’s a food allergy, intolerance, sensory/texture issues or an issue as insidious and hard to detect as mine, please don’t assume your child is just being difficult for funsies. And please don’t force them to eat something they say makes them feel sick. There’s probably a valid reason, and it warrants investigation rather just assuming your kid exists to tick you off.

there’s a couple of reasons why kids might not like foods.

Firstly, kids do actually have a slightly different sense of taste than adults. So something that might taste fine to an adult might sincerely taste bad or weird to a kid. They’re not shitting you, they’re tasting it differently because their mouth is wired differently.

And secondly, allergies and food sensitivities. Parents and guardians should keep an eye out for reactions to common allergens, and what different symptoms of allergies and anaphylaxis look like. And like … ask kid why they don’t like it. Even if it’s something like “I don’t like how this was cooked” means that they might like it if it’s prepared differently.

Listening to kids is really important. When I was three, I went from loving eggs to not eating them. My parents were very surprised (I had LOVED scrambled eggs before) and asked me why. I said that it made my mouth feel weird. Now, my mom is also allergic to eggs, though she tends to get hives. So she had a good idea what was going on, and my parents immediately stopped serving me eggs until they had a better idea what was going on. And I got tests done, and I have a mild egg allergy. Small amounts are ok, but if I had kept on eating larger quantities, I might have had a serious reaction and needed to be hospitalized. I avoided that because my parents listened to me and took me seriously.

me @ myself: you’re annoying tbh

nobody warns you this but addiction happens without you noticing and one of the first things that it attacks is your ability to care. if you find yourself using recreational drugs every day, stop and take one day a week sober. if you struggle with this or if you don't see the point of the exercise, you are likely already addicted and you need help.

nobody ever taught me the warning signs for drug addiction, only that "it costs lots of money and destroys your life!!!1" which is not helpful if you can't recognize a developing addiction in yourself.

so here's some things to watch out for with recreational drug use:

yes this applies to weed. weed is a drug and you can get addicted to it like any other substance. addiction is not the same as physical dependence; it is psychological and it can happen to anyone. you are not immune to addiction.

Many of these also apply to process addictions such as Gambling Addiction.

and drinking!!

Oh well, let me just try putting my phone down 1 day a week-

the true blackstone hiding place was the friends we lost along the way

shirt that says "i love redundancy!" on the front and on the back it says "i love redundancy!"

And on the front, it says "i love redundancy!"

What if we also put “I love redundancy!” on the back of the shirt?

let's hear it for gay whale sex

characters whose philosophy is “if i cannot be wanted, i will be needed and if i cannot be needed, let me be used until there’s nothing left of me.” thank you for everyone’s attention. falls off stage and dies

“Nobody’s going to want to sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours to get from New York City to LA.”

Me. I will sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours. I’ll sit on it for days. I’ll write and read and nap and eat and then do it all over again. I’ll stare out the windows and see America from ground level and not have to drive. I’ll see the Rockies and the deserts and cornfields and the Mississippi River and your house and yours and yours too. I’ll make up stories in my head about the small towns I see as we go along. I’ll see the states I’ve yet to see because driving or flying there is a fucking slog and expensive to boot. I’ll enjoy the ride as much as the destination. And then I’ll do it all over again to come the fuck home.

Me getting slammed with notifications on this post in particular:

Americans will drive 15 hours, why the hell wouldn't we take a 15 hour train ride.

Hey mama

What's it called when your dick only gets hard for one person and it's whenever they kiss you or say your name

"Oscar Noel Lester, you were named after two bravest people in existence. One of them had a greatest ass i ever known but thats unrelated..."

triple dog dare you to transition

"if tumblr dies you can find me on bluesky" "if tumblr dies you can find me on Instagram" if tumblr dies you cannot find me. It's over. I'm free.

House md is such a trip because House and Wilson are standing cock to cock, tip to tip, packer to packer, emotionally and physically. House's employees have a polyamorous codependent relationship while also being at each other's throats constantly. Foreman's so represssed they think he's gay, Chase is so sexually active that he can't possibly be straight, Taub and Kutner scissored, Cameron's probably gay but she has a job to do so she isn't going to think about it too hard, Thirteen is bisexual and went to jail once. Everyone has used drugs recreationally at least once. They break into everyone's home then insult the state of their home and then diagnose the patient based on a "That's so Raven" vision that House has. They shouldn't have been doctors, they would all thrive better as Waffle house employees that leap over the counter to fight customers.
