Titer = antibody count

I learned of Orthorexia being a very real eating disorder which was sadly not yet classified during my undergrads at University, in the same course where we covered Anorexia, bulimia, restrictive eating, and calorie counting obsessions. Which was...10 years ago? So just because it is not officially classified by slow…

I got knee and thigh-shamed by my mom from age 12 on (too thin and bony until 19, too female, cottage cheesy and big since then), which basically means I have a couple of skirts but never, ever wear them. I cannot. I am okay with leggings, and I rock my Black Milks, but glory Nope on a throne, I do not like wearing…

I got quite a lot of side eyes in my lab in NZ because the F-bombs fall wherever I go...After They asked me to not do it, I went back to swear in German. Scheisse, Verdammtnochmal.

I was 9...and I was stripped and chased over the courtyard by 12 year old boys where I lived when I was 6. Yay. And guess what? I got house arrest, because the neighbor saw me, not the boys who chased me.

I thought so, too, but then I remembered some of the #whyistayed tweets, and damn...This is more difficult than we happily living in our save bubble can actually understand.

Remade the poached egg thing, but with a sunny side up instead. Including the pepitas and the chives. I regret nothing!

You mean the wild chicken in the vegan chicken burger?

I have suffered for 3 years with an ileal ulcer. Side effects were dramatic weight loss, severe bloating, and constant pain (like pouring vinegar over a shredded knee or cut). Their diagnoses over three years? I have to eat more, I am depressed, I have IBS because of depression, I imagine things because of depression,…

Or make sure every anti-vaxxer gets rubella and mumps at the same time, because they can induce infertility. No kids to not vaxinate!

I love essential oils...for my bathtub. Duh.

I have one thing I have a problem to wrap my thoughts around something. If there is an oppressed group, say...POC. And in 99% of the jobs, they show a *hidden* preference for caucasians. And in one job, they state a clear *POC preferred*, is that racism?
I actually thought that you, by definition, cannot be racist…

Nice and complicated words, let me translate so the GOP is able to understand the bills:

Satire is hard to understand if you are unable to think on your own :(

I just turned 13, and leggings were in, together with baggy sweaters. My mom did not understand the craze, and I was not completely sure either...and I left the house with a see-through legging in baby blue and a very long (just above the knee), knitted blue sweater.
Since I was already the butt of all jokes, my…

And despite all the awesome music she made, all the awesome things she said, the only thing society remembers is that horrid swan dress she once wore. Talk about gender steretypes and objectification. Sighs.

At the same time, I have just read a paper on how women have a significant lower pain threshold, aka feel pain more intensely, and are yet less likely to be treatedas well as treated correctly for said pain, because society kind of thinks that women deserve to feel more pain, or a hysteric.
Does anyone else think that…

I have just read that the correct medical term for miscarriage is "spontaneous abortion". So...well...I would actually like to get that term to be used more often, so that more people actually think about the pain, loss and hopelessness that is involved in BOTH cases of abortion.
But then, I have also read horrid…

"Opinions about abortion are like nipples. The women's are more important, but all we get to see are men's." -Someone on twitter who deserves the nobel prize in journalism or something.

Nom, if it also has extra garlic, bacon and capers.
