I Forgor

Hmmm longer than anticipated nap

Yes, yes, I approve of all this information. Very nice. 10/10.

i think i'm having mental issues...

wanna see isopods? i like you

isopods are so cool,,,, im the same but with cicadas, wanna hear cicada facts? there are many many cicada species (more than 3.000) but a lot are undescribed :( i think thats because people normally refer to them as two types, annual and periodical, periodical cicadas are the ones ppl are more interested in because they spend more than 10 years being nymphs underground until they emerge to the surface to become actual cicadas, and also I think that's why they are or were a symbol of rebirth in China, and I have a few more thoughts about it

one of them is that the cicadas' defense method in nature is.. dying. yes, dying. LET ME EXPLAIN: when cicadas emerge to the surface, they emerge in veery long groups, right? that's because they only have like 3 weeks to live when they are actual cicadas, and they mate in that period of time (A curious fact is that they use that buzz sound of their wings to attract each other, both when there is a predator nearby or when they are looking for someone to mate with, and only the males can make this sound with their tail and wings, it's like snapping your fingers.) and they also die in long groups, close to trees, but to the point, THEY DIE TO LET OTHERS LIVE and that's because predators hungry blah blah and they want to eat them. they let them eat them, predators are satisfied but there are still too many cicadas, predators don't eat them because they don't need it, CICADAS LIVE!!!! or at least the rest of em

i made a cicada poem like a year and half ago and yeah they are my favorite insect (as if my name isn't literally cicada but with aesthetic numbers with no meaning)

and psst.. there were also giant cicadas in Palaeontinidae... I need to research more about them because it sounds very cool

ARMY DREAMERS...

Dear wawi with silly cool pfp,

oH MY GOD HOW ARE YOU SO QUICK TO LIKE PLWASE WHAT ARE YOUR SECRETS HELP

Oh that is a WONDERFUL wonderful idea stranger

a funny thing I've noticed in dialtown is that many of the phones don't have chords. and I'm aware that this is probably just bc of the stock images or photoshopping, but I like the implication that you can just steal the phones from their heads. beautiful.

Thing's Rambles #2: Ultra-processed food (AKA, pre-digested food)

Ultra-processed food is really just pre-digested food. And not in the sense that its been digested by someone else, and we're eating poop.

(Not AS long ramble below)

There are four groups:

- Unprocessed

- Processed ingredients

- Processed

- Ultra-processed

Items in the unprocessed section includes:

Apples, milk, vegetables.

Items in the processed ingredients includes:

Salt, honey, butter, etc etc.

Items in the processed section includes:

Bread, packaged sliced fruit, wine, and canned food.

Items in the ultra-processed section includes:

Packaged cereal, spam, packaged sliced bread, potato chips, sliced cheese

In order to fit in these criteria, you need to be a natural ingredient for non-processed; slightly processed ingredients for processed ingredients(e.g, salt needs to undergo a certain process to become from water to a rock, much like honey), regularly processed food for processed section.

Do note that processed does not necessarily mean automatically bad, all processed means is that the object has undergone a certain process and is different from its natural state. For example, a homemade apple pie is processed food because its changed from its natural state (apples, flour, etc).

Where processed is taken too far though, is ultra-processed. Do you know what happens to 'pre-digested' food? By definiton ultra-processed means industrial ingredients that are made with industrial techniques. So we're not even eating natural food, its all industrial. Lemme stop yapping; what exactly does this all mean?

In a factory, the natural ingredient is taken and broken down to its very molecule, mixed together plush some chemicals, and forms a 'sludge' the manufacturer can mold into anything they can imagine — imitating the 'real' food. Can you imagine that? The food is processed so severely, its been broken down to molecules in a process similar to human digestion. Hence, why its called pre-digested.

See the problem with pre-digested food — aside from the fact a great deal of nutrients is lost from the process — is that since the food is already 'partially' digested, the intestine does less work to break it down, thus, takes less time to digest an ultra-processed meal. But the body is already expecting having to work to gain nutrients from food, so then what happens? Not enough, evidently. Even if the body has recieved the same amount of calories, nutrients, vitamins, etc. the signals sent to the brain still reads 'not full'.

So you've eaten enough, but you're still hungry. The chemicals of these ultra-processed food not only make you think you need food, but also to make you CRAVE food. It's basically hacked your dopamine production.

Foods that are easier and faster to digest, also is easier and faster to go to our brain. Thats why drugs that work quick — such as smoking — is much more addictive. They make you CRAVE it, and once your body systems get used to it, they make you NEED it.

What could make all this better, is if the public knows. Its not exactly private information, but also information thats kicked under the bed.

The worse part is, in my opinion, is that it's EVERYWHERE. 95% of those healthy things you see in grocery stores? Ultra-processed. Even those yucky healthy cereals, and grain bars. I guess I'll be doing some research later to find meals that arent ultra-processed (atleast not as much) but still taste good and isnt expensive af idk man :(

Time for the funfact section!!

Funfact: This ramble specifically was only 550 (ish) words!

Funfact: You cant escape corporate greed!

Funfact: It's in the fashion industry, the food industry, whatever you consume, corporate greed is behind it!

Funfact: Yeah I dont think there's anything fun about ultra-processed food.

Funfact: Study shows association of ultra-processed food with cancer and depression in women

I dont know why they added women, I feel like it'd be depressing for both if you're eating this garbage every day.

P.S, dont feel guilty for eating them, I do too. This is what I mean by no one can truly escape it.

We are mice born in a world where the floor is glue-trap.

best skin ever have me cost $25555555

wish i had a sword right about now

Why do humans think rarity = value? Does it root in selfishness? The desire to have something (so that) others cannot?

Or maybe its just a product of advertisment, designed to make up a 'want' for their products

Or maybe its just how it is

OWH MEINZ GOTTZ THAMKYOU THE SO VERY MUCH!1!1!1!1!2 i dident check my notifs and only saw this because i was scrolling your account....(ILOVEFLUGILOVEFLUGILOVEFLUG)

(Thank youuu🙏🏻🥹💕 I feel the same... so I had to take things into my own hands. no matter where I go I'm the only one posting consistently since more than just a few months before giving up or moving on... I'm in the official server and I get barely or no reaction, nobody else posts, but I keep going like my life depends on it. I can't help it, my autism won't let it go. I've been here without a break since 2017 so... it's safe to say I'm not going away)
