My sex ed was pretty thorough I feel. It was part of our health units in school from grades 5-9. In the earlier grades, the class would be split into boys and girls, but as I got older the entire class was part of the lesson.

Most sex ed classes involved: -Showing diagrams of female and male reproductive organs (we had to label each one which I hated doing) -Students being able to ask questions about sex or puberty -Learning about consent -STI and safe sex -Birth control methods

There was also a LGBT/gender portion that was added to the curriculum later on. It covered things like: -Differences between gender and sex -Sexual vs romantic attraction (also covered ace/Aro people I believe)

• What makes a person binary trans people or non binary -Defining different sexualities (gay, lesbians, bi, etc) -Differences between gender identity and gender expression

Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with how all this was taught to me.

Sugar/ultra processed foods especially soda

I'm the exact same! I've thought about moving to a more topical country but I'm terrified of hurricanes lol.

Np, enjoy!

^ It's my lifelong goal to befriend a crow

I prefer to make it in my Instant Pot so I use this recipe: https://thegirlonbloor.com/chana-masala-instant-pot-and-stovetop/#wprm-recipe-container-26783

Dw, there's also instructions to cook it on a stove stop. :>

Chana masala! It's so tasty and relatively easy to make.

^ I was watching movies on Disney+ with a friends and I was appalled that a streaming service had so many ads, not to mention that she was paying a subscription fee. Not only that, but some classic Disney movies just weren't in English for some reason? They were dubbed in Mandarin and the only option was to add English subtitles. Awful platform

I swear I managed to go through all the typical cringe phases in middle school: weeb, nice girl, smart ass, edgy atheists, you name it lol I'm shocked that I had friends at all during that time.

I love the smell of burning firewood. There's lots of homes that have little bonfires in their backyards during the summer months. Admittedly, I keep my windows open during the summer just so I can smell it, it's oddly relaxing.

I love nature images for my lock screens. I chose the jellyfish because they are so pretty and colourful, they look stunning in photographs.

Followed! Thanks for the rec ^_

Hot dogs with white bread instead of a bun goes CRAZY imo

Whichever one I'm currently hyperfixating on lol. I'm really enjoying [title card] at the moment

I love Firealpaca! It's free, lightweight and its layout is simple. Plus it has most of the features that more "complex" softwares have like animation, custom brushes, etc.

A brain that can produce a stable level of serotonin and not go haywire all because the seasons changed.

That and being neurotypical, my life would be much easier if I didn't have ADHD

Those Dollar Store umbrellas! They are so shit they will break if the slightest bit of wind hits them, or maybe the flimsy metal frame breaks from closing it.

Sure it's from the Dollar Store, but I've bought lots of things from there that have last a decent around of time.

"On behalf of all Americans, I am so sorry that our President..."

"As a sane American..."

"Please boycott us more, we deserve it. :("

Ffs get out there and protest or riot.

Chapman's ice cream! They have continuously been in the best interest of their employees and local communities. During COVID, they made sure that all their employees kept their jobs and even raised their wages. The company even went as far as to buy several deep freezers to store to COVID vaccines, because the town where their factory is located has a lot of elderly people and wanted to ensure their protection from the virus.

They will always be one of the few brands that I am completely loyal to.
