live off of bone-broth and thinned tapioca? XD

I just take things that digest food for me. Like enzymes, acid, and bile. It depends on what has been ingested.

I don't think I need a whole lot to help, but I am lactose intolerant only. <:/ And might be getting increasingly sensitive to processed foods. I need an enzyme pill for whenever I know I am gonna be eating cheese or cream or butter <:[ since my body can't produce lactase very well on it's own, inhibiting my digestive tract from processing any whole or processed dairy without issue.

I found that most things containing dairy have been hazardous for my consumption.
;-; Which is a shame because it means I can't indulge in pizza like I used to in my high school years, when I was a pizza freak. <x'{
I can have cheese, but maybe only once a month. <:/ I typically get bloaty and break out, but also have a hard time with my intestines if I eat too much dairy.

So I did cut out dairy, almost entirely and it seemed to really clear up my skin, and I haven't had stomach issues for a while now. Which is great!
:}

I also cut out most all fast food from my diet, as I found it's the biggest culprit of my digestive woes. >:/ No Del Taco, no Wendy's, no Jack in the Box! Nothin'! Maybe In N Out. >.>; But only once in a blue moon...because I like their fries.

Sugar tho is hard for me to stay away from since it's so addicting. 8{ I'm not even a sweet-tooth, and I can't eat any candy since just an ounce will jack me up something awful! But just some ice cream here, a little cookie there, maybe a muffin or two, is so hard to resist! <X'{
To get around this, I satisfy my sweet cravings with actual whole fruit, and if I must have baked treats, they gotta have nuts or berries, and it has to be only a bite-sized amount. I'm lucky I'm so picky with sweets, since chocolate and caramel are both revolting to me, but I do love me some childhood breakfast cereal. <B/ I'm a sucker for cereal.

Though for like gas pain trouble and tummy torture, I have ginger tea, emergency gas/bloating relief tablets, leg and back yoga stretches and exercises, bananas, and a functioning regurgitation response. ^~^; Which is a last resort, but I'm glad it's helped me at least once when I learned I had some bad pesto.

my liver has serious issues so coupled with my lack of dairy tolerance i have to heavily restrict my intake too, the messed up thing is next to nothing tastes appetizing without dairy in it. it is bananas x_____x

B-a-n-a-n-a-s~
>w>
This $H1T is BANANAS!
B!
a-n-a-n-a-s!~
>w<

(Couldn't help myself there. <x'})

>_> >___> >_____________> is that first banana's fly down?

O-o???!
*looks back at the gif*
Uhhhhhhhhhh...th-they're pajama bottoms soo...no fly???

it was looking suspiciously yellow there for a sec' i don't want to see any banana skin there

so, how is life as chum? XD

XD I had to take a second look, lol! I think it's just the lighting.

-W- Ohh, I'll not be chum for long.
But it's left me both exhausted and hungry. <x]
So I ate the rest of my ice cream last night. XD

i was hoping you would say 'so i ate the shark' XD

<x'D Oh no! A missed opportunity! Lol! That would've been hilarious.

not to mention delicious! look at all that wasted meaty meat!

Shark Meat! Oo-ah-ha!!
x'D
Oh wait, oh no,
that's Shark Bait!
<X}

hehehehe~


so how are you doing today?

;u; Well now, I'm happy someone asked how I was doing today.
Thank you~

<3<3 it is nice to be acknowledged~

so i guess animal crossing is doing incredibly well with everyone indoors. scalpers have started inflating switch prices again

It is. ;u; I agree. <3

Hohooooyeah! 8}
I'm so glad my bro bought his switch a couple years ago! <X/ Though his joy-cons tend to drift a bunch and sometimes cause the controls to misbehave.
I've been addicted to ACNH which isn't a big surprise, because I was previously addicted to ACNL. <x'3 Which I still kinda ammmmm..

But the ACNH is my brother's game and hence it's HIS island so...I'm just a resident. :/

wait, you can only have the one save? that is kind of junk x____x

I'm obsessing over a k-pop idol who is not! currently! active!! And who probably won't be in the future. The boy band he was in disbanded and there were vague plans for him to go solo which never followed through. And it's been years.

But I'm obsessed with him NOW. And I partly blame the lockdown situation. Help. :s-cry:

Who is it?? :0

Song Kyungil from 'History' :s-cry:

https://66.media.tumblr.com/db86cc5e...sn9io1_250.gif

I would honestly obsess over J-Pop and K-Pop if I let myself. <x'D
But I don't wanna bother with fanbase chaos and merch. Also there are too many. >w< As well as too many songs I'd easily be sucked into, thanks to my childhood consisting of N*Sync, Backstreet Boys and O-Town.


>XT Was like that in New Leaf too, but grff, yeah! I wanted my own island! XD I would've made it all pirate themed!
Instead my brother named his island Pen Island...

i suppose you can't beat him up and reset the island?

>U< Nahhh! My bro and I aren't the cat/dog sort of siblings.
Plus, I already have a sweet home so far, and I don't wanna undo all that progress. >3>;

I like living on a smaller island in the middle of a lake, on the peak of the island, that's in the shape of a skull! <XP <3

heeeck, that sounds like a lot of work to make XD

^_^; It was quite a lot of work. Admittingly.
>->; (I have spent way too much time playing Animal Crossing and I'm ashamed to admit it)

Though, I have been basically trying to avoid the bad thoughts and feelings, I've been avoiding everything and everyone else in the process. <x{
Which is no bueno! <XC
But on the plus side, I've been giggling at memes on Imgur on and off to help me feel better worse? better, I guess. <x}

anything i can do to help? i would like to think i make for a good distraction ^^

:T hmm...well, let's see....

I dunno what you know about Disneyland,

:] but I'd kinda like to have a discussion about the craziest sh*t you've witnessed or actually have been responsible for at DidyLan'. <x}
Or maybe what your favorite ride is?...character interactions?...or whatever?

HEY HEY!

Merskelly, have you ever seen the Disney Sing-Along Songs Disneyland VHS?

It was my favorite of the Disney singalong VHS series. OuO
I have been to Disneyworld once when I was a kid, but I don't remember any of it. Too young. u_u

But I think you'd really enjoy the singalong!!

>8O *GAAAAAASP!*
I used to own some of those as a toddler!!!
<XD I just remember Mickey's Circus, Beach Party, and the Campout one, but OMG!!
I remember those!
<x'} Such Nostalgia honestly, wow! Didn't think anyone else used to have those as a kid.

i actually boycott disney and disney-related products whenever possible because of their lack of ethical practices but i suppose the most crazy thing i know is this;

I hear you, chocobo.

Disney has certainly changed so much over the years..
Plagiarizing other stories and ideas from much smaller companies... I'm looking at you Kim*cough*Simba...
And just how greedy they've become. How poorly they treat the workers at Disneyland/Disneyworld.

Even re-hiring people who have been known to abuse children and such.

Disney is as a company is all sorts of fucked up. >:T
It's frustrating also because I really do love the movies they make, I really, really do...
It's my childhood and I have fond memories of Disney.

I was trying to tell me (racist) father the Disney, regardless of whether or not he was openly racist, he definitely had several chances to NOT be racist, but chose to do so anyway... Like Jim Crow from Dumbo. I mean...??? That wasn't just an accident, he PURPOSEFULLY made the crows sound like black people, then PURPOSEFULLY named the "head crow" *Jim* Crow... Even if he wasn't openly racist, that was definitely something done in poor taste... and for children also???? Nah.
My dad is like, "Nah, that's not racist. Disney hired black people sometimes..."

Mom and I agree. If Disney hired a black person, that doesn't take away the fact that he did racist things.

This is a whole huge long rant I could get into over this...


But I like my memories I have of Disney things. ;n;

i think it is important to understand you can have fond memories of something AND still acknowledge and condemn it's major flaws. i mean heck.

yeah, well disney has been nicking other people's work for their entire history so it's not really a surprise XD but yeah as long as the brer rabbit movie is a thing that exists and even one piece of the confederacy park attraction is around noone can say disney isn't racist and hasn't done some very racist things

Holy sh*t. <XD
Not to mention their scheming business practices, their increasing disconnection from a general audience and corporate greed are all coming to light,
plus the fact that I heard they are hurting for money,
(no surprise there, Star Wars lost money and the MCU is put on hold)
so they are trying to keep their investor's money by BORROWING millions and relying on their Disney + as well as firing good people and hiring others that will do what they say,
really makes me kinda happy. <x]

I got a cousin who is a die-hard Disneyboy,
and will pay his left arm for Disney merch and passes and stuff. <x}
I loved going to Disneyland with him and getting on the rides and stuff.
B] But I'm at the age where I am seeing Disney turn into a garbage heap and it is not impressing me in the slightest anymore.

I think Chocobo is right!
-u- I can have fond memories from like The Haunted Mansion ride,
Pirates of the Caribbean,
and the old Disney Renaissance animated movies,
while acknowledging and recognizing the flaws of each of them. :T

That being said, the last time I got on It's A Small World,
<x'D made me realize it would be a TERRIBLE place to be stuck in if you're drunk, high or just afraid of looking at colorful lies for 10 minutes straight, lol!

well merch, repacking classics and the parks are how they make a lot of money and all three of those are taking a hit. i am not surprised to hear they aren't doing so well

Yup. 8T
...although I feel like if you can afford to go to theme parks all you want and visit everything in it all the time,
<:/ It gets a little bland after a while...same rides, same food, same music, same shows...the façade all melts away..
That's why I think it's good to go every couple of years. <:T

I am partial to Knott's Berry Farm and Universal Studios more than Disneyland, but for one it's because I love hearing epic movie music, and the other is only because there's a big coaster there I'm not afraid to go on, but yet still have anxiety waiting in line for. <x'}

i don't know anything about all of that. i cannot imagine what anyone could possibly offer that would justify the price, i am a lad of very little imagination i suppose hahaha

*looks down at self* well, i suppose lass of little imagination, today

:T Lad. Lass. Sneakers. Whatever.
As long as you're absolutely tantalizing in whatever you're doin'. =W= ~+ You do you yo. Chill like a Vill. >w> Take a bat to Karen's stupid microwave. Eat some popcorn in the tub. Assassinate that fly that got inside somehow. Slip on your finest robe and impress those Jellyfish. ;D Flirt with the refrigerator. Tear up those air drums.
<x'D I have no idea what I'm saying hahaha!

it doesn't matter, i'm fairly motivated by it all the same! but yeah, fuck karen and her microwave! it couldn't defrost a roast for shit anyway!
