  • Streaming. Mostly YouTube music, some Bandcamp, all legal. Headphones at work, speakers at home. Favorites are many, old and new music, last couple of years it's been Fontaines DC I think, they are just so good, sitting at the intersection of rock & punk & melodic with such awesomely poetic lyrics and the underlying thread of despair of all Irish music.

  • I don't know if this helps but I do very much enjoy being female -bodied, like I loved being pregnant and nursing, love having sex, I enjoy the body I am in. I don't think much about any mental or emotional aspect to being a woman, don't feel particularly feminine or anything like that.

    But I suspect if I had been born in a male body, I would feel "off" and wish for a female one.

  • I knew two mathematicians, both worked at NASA. Met one coaching dance (side job) and one gymnastics (his retirement job). I'm not entirely sure what they did exactly, beyond "math".

  • The fuck? Fishy smell is an infection, not a healthy vagina. You are usual, no worries.

  • I think you are an outlier in your palate for celery. Could you have an allergy or something? I like it fine, it tastes good and adds a really nice flavor to stock for soup. If you don't like that flavor just leave it out when you make it, the rest of us might think your dish is missing something but who cares, if the something it's missing is something you don't like?

    My penultimate child loves "cooked salted celery" as she puts it - she will rescue it from the stock pot, and likes stir fry of just celery and beef.

  • Ours is corre, corre, policia!

  • Do you want fancy beans? Rancho Gordo online has fancy beans. They are, as they say, the leguminati.

    For canned I use the ones from whole foods or go to specific ethnic markets. Chinese chefs use some crazy preparations I don't usually like - fermented black beans ok in small amounts, but no no to red bean ice cream or any sweet preparation. And big no to Japanese natto, what are they even thinking?

    But middle eastern markets have good canned favas, and spanish and italian markets here have lots of brands that aren't Goya.

  • Enjoyment is an important part of healthy eating, and I believe simply not overeating is at least 75% of healthy eating, so wouldn't really worry about it that much.

    The soup is in this thread higher up, hardly a recipe it's so easy - I don't really like squash or sweet potatoes but love that soup, all the toppings.

    Oh! I remembered this one too, might be more tasty to you if you are into cooking, my family keeps asking for it, but it's not a weeknight thing, have to pull out the blender. Sopa Tarasca, at the bottom of this link. I have made it with canned beans and tomatoes and it's just as good.

  • Have you tried roasted chickpeas (garbanzos)? Also there is a chickpea flour that is used in Indian food. Not that this would be enough to get you the 2 cups or anything, but they are some much different tasting/feeling preparations that you might like ok or enjoy. Also the pumpkin soup I posted - the puree hides in that soup, nobody thinks it's beans, the pumpkin is so strong of flavor the beans just cut that so it's good not ungodly sweet.

    I can imagine not liking beans, they do have a specific, really lovely to me, smooth and thick texture. The flavor I can't really imagine not liking all of them, they are pretty different from each other.

    Plenty of other foods have fiber just not as efficient as beans, you would have to eat a lot more to hit that health target.

  • I like white rice, and make bread with 65% white flour. But foods with fiber are delicious.

    Beans, so good so many ways.

    Fruits - raspberries, dates, apples, peaches, pears, mango, pineapple.

    Greens- cooked collards or mustard greens are so tasty, salads can be so good tasting.

    Onions and garlic make a good start to many meals and have a specific sort of fiber that is very good for you.

    I like oatmeal.

    But again - the total fiber needed for health is in two cups of beans. Just throw them in anything. Put them on your white rice, in your white flour tortillas. Garbanzos into sausage soups. Cannelini into pasta dishes. Hummus and falafel with your lamb and white flour pitas.

  • I guess just by eating them a lot my body adjusted?

    Though I think also, you know how different bodies have different strengths and weaknesses - digestion seems to be my body's strength, the one place I don't usually have issues. Like no trouble eating meat after 20 years of vegetarian food, even. It doesn't care. It's weaknesses lie elsewhere.

  • Beans are perfect.

  • Refried pinto beans we eat with breakfasts or in burritos.

    Black beans from cans, reheated with some cumin, salt, pepper, vinegar or jalapeno brine. My family (except for me) prefers black beans above all others.

    Bonus easy recipe - get a can of cannelini beans and a can of pureed butternut squash or pumpkin. Heat these together with some olive oil, curry or berbere, salt. When they are hot, hit it with an immersion blender until it's a puree and adjust the consistency to your preference with chicken broth, veg broth, or just water is ok.Serve with lime slices, pepitas, queso fresco if you have it or a splash of cream or sour cream can also be good.

  • Beans. I know on Lemmy beans are memes, but beans are how to get enough fiber each day. 2 cups of cooked beans has the total fiber you need for a day, and it's hard to get there without beans.

    It takes about 3 -5 cups of cooked veggies to get the fiber that is in one cup of beans. So 1 cup of cooked beans and some greens with supper, a big salad for lunch and oatmeal with raspberries and yogurt for breakfast would get you there. And should leave room calorie wise for some meat and bread or rice or pasta.

    My kids make fun of me for making beans for so many meals but delicious, cheap, healthy, they are an ideal food.

  • I don't hear that but do know plenty of people who think it's sclock and ought not be made. I'm easy to entertain I guess - if something is beautifully filmed and there is action, explosions, space battles or monsters, that is the stuff I like to see at the theater.

    Dramas, other stories, and horror, also musicals I prefer on a smaller screen at home.

    My mom told me once "you have the same taste in movies as a teenage boy" and I guess she was right, but she didn't like science fiction or comics, only serious real world stories. I live in this world. When I go to the movies I want to see another world.

  • We like it, now that you can buy seats and the theaters are smaller and steeper (no bad seats). Too expensive to do all the time but great for the Spectacular Movies with all the effects. Too loud usually, the sound is great and clear but too loud.

    I don't know anybody who says they are going to see something nobody wants to see, maybe those movies don't make it down here.

  • The insect apocalypse is by far the most ominous sign in my lifetime, but if I never again see a mating swarm of palmetto bugs, a cloud of them flying, it will be too soon.

    Once we were at a Mexican restaurant and in the booth behind us were some students from somewhere else. They were talking about the palmetto bugs and one said, well at least they don't fly. And I turned around and said, "oh no, I regret I have some very bad news for you."

    Those fuckers don't even run or fly away, they come AT you. My mom said they like to try to squeeze into small spaces, don't like being out in the open and see you as a safe place not a threat. I have a fear of them that is way beyond reason.

  • Replace with what?
