I prefer batch cooking to meal prep. A burrito rolled on Sunday does not taste good on Wednesday. At all. However, keeping a batch of lentils or quinoa or farro or wilted greens in the fridge leads to easy and healthy meals throughout the week. Soups, salads, bowls, frittatas, scrambles, cakes, etc. All come together in seconds by combining a batch grain with whatever produce I have.
In 2018 my partner and two of our dearest friends traveled in Canada for 2 weeks. It was an amazing trip. Amazing nature, fantastic food, and the locals were lovely. Canada is fucking awesome.
Cooking is one of my favorite things on the planet, so absolutely not. I regularly spend all day cooking in anticipation of sitting down to a delicious bowl of soup for dinner. Takes all kinds though, so do you and enjoy your cold soup in a can!
Just what a troglodyte would say
That’s bizarre. Oxtail is pretty common in the states these days. At least in California. So good indeed!!

This is a really good read on these types of situations. He’s a white guy and he thought that was enough. that means the rules don’t apply to him. I think as we are trying to figure these people out we sometimes overcomplicate it and a lot of the times the reasons are really quite simple. Just like them.

I deal with it with grace, understanding, and compassion. I’m gay, but as a white cis man I still have obscene amounts of privilege. I feel a bit like a double agent. I’m a minority, but as I move through the world I am afforded all of the privilege that patriarchy can offer. And I can say with full confidence, the misandry I encounter pales in comparison to the homophobia I encounter. This goes for online as well as irl. And “pales in comparison” is inadequate. It’s so not even on the same playing field. They are not even comparable. I get it. It’s rougher to be a straight man than it’s ever been. I routinely get “mistreated” because I’m a bearded white guy who looks like Steve from Minnesota. But having a woman be less polite to me now and then is nowhere near what I go through as a queer. Especially growing up. I used to pray every night for god to kill me. Because I am queer. Not because I am a man. And I’ve tried to explain this to my brothers, and they don’t get it and can’t help but feel like the victim in all of this. And I bet you will align with them. But hopefully someone reading this will hear it. Yes, you are struggling. But fucking cope. Cope. Sharpen your coping skills. Because you have still been spared in a way you can’t even comprehend.
Do you all remember how quickly they backed down as soon as ashley babbit was shot? (yes I know I spelled it wrong, I don’t care to honor that piece of trash). A whole crowd of these fuckers. and presumably the most rabid of them, their infantry if you will. These are the cultists who spent money, time, and energy to be there. So they are also the ones with means. Also, presumably a bunch of them were carrying concealed weapons. Then one person gets shot and the entire thing crumbles. Cowards. Through and through cowards. And they think they can win a war?
Make your own broth from concentrates and things like doenjang, miso, gochjang, hoisin, fish sauce etc. Then a bunch of veg. If I’m feeling it, ill use fresh veggies and prepare each accordingly, but if I’m making a quick bowl, a big handful of frozen veg does the trick.
