 I never should have bought these crackers. They trick me into thinking I'm
 eating something nutritious.
 
 But that's the case with any empty calories.
 
 but hey, calories are calories, right?
 
 I guess that's true. Still, I'd rather make something.
 
 oh would you now would you REALLY rather MAKE something
 
 ... I should rather.

 I had a dream that someone fed me a McDonalds burger in the airport (with
 "special sauce") and then the next time I was at the grocery store in the
 waking world I ended up buying a bunch of those meat replacements that I
 usually skip in favor of moar vegetables.
 
 Hmmmmm.... I wonder if I have a deficiency
 
 (yeah you dumbass it's a calorie deficiency, just eat more)

 eat them myself, which, uh... idk what I expected xD

 with it, so... sandwiches. And hey, sandwiches are cool, they're a pretty neat
 anti-hunger tool! but uhhhh idk if I really want to eat six whole sandwiches
 myself. I'm gonna do it though hehe wish me luck [ding] ah nuts my rice and
 beans are done, hang on lemme eat those first

 harsh lessons of adulthood - sometimes food is not eaten for the taste, but
 rather for how it will make you feel slightly better in the next few days.

 Rice has been eaten. I threw a cookie on-top for good measure. I think that
 was a good decision.
 
 I'm going to the park. I don't know what I'll find, but I'm sure there'll be
 fireworks.

 "eat the rich" bruh there's like, 100 people who are running the show.
 everyone else is basically just a syncophant who's trying to get ahead and
 stay working.
 
 then there's like their families and such and like... they didn't do anything
 wrong, they just eat cheese and wine and laugh at memes all day with their
 besties.
 
 they are basically pets

 When you run out of a seasoning, put the empty bottle in a special place that
 you can see before going to the store.
 
 When I carried a purse, I'd put it in there. Could also go in the pocket of a
 sweatshirt or jacket that you wear when doing errands. Maybe even just on the
 ledge next to your shoes. Something that reminds you to get this particular
 seasoning, and no others. It's easy to get others...

 when you run out of an ingredient you use often (like butter, seasoning, or
 flour) put the container by your shoes.
 
 then, when you go to the store, look through all the empty containers and make
 a mental list.
 
 when you get home and are putting things away, if you forgot something just
 leave the old container by the door. everything else can be recycled / trashed.

 buy your groceries. don't open your windows and do nothing for as long as
 possible.
 
 hope you got lots of edibles... get in shape, will ya? don't waste the paper
 in your journals.
 
 not that I intend to do that or anything, but um. for the red states maybe?

 energy drinks and coffee will keep you awake, but they're a false promise, as    │
 once they're gone and digested your body's gonna crash harder. You'll have to    │
 sleep it off, like a hangover. But that's okay if you're getting somewhere and   │
 have a day to rest.                                                              │
 sugars found in fruit can give you a burst of quick energy, but they make you    │
 sleepy overtime. If this were a video game, they'd give +50 energy points but    │
 -1 per second for the next 100 seconds. Not ideal, but there's some vitamins     │
 that are only in fruit so it's a good idea to eat fruit at least once or         │
 thrice a week.                                                                   │
 bread products are the opposite - they give you long-term energy. It takes       │
 your body longer to digest them, which means they're good for vitality. But      │
 they also don't have many nutrients, so don't forget your vegetables! Plus,      │
 more calories is always good if you've got time to spare. Just make sure you     │
 aren't using calories to store calories in your fat cells, that's like           │
 double-stacking condoms - not ideal. Store nutrients.                            │
