Tuesday

Beetroot and carrots (80 g), Black-eyed peas (70 g).

I am reconsidering these fairly pointless forms of protest whose main characteristic seems to be that they can in no way be construed by jerks as “virtue signaling”, while still being a middlefinger to nosy scolds.

Otoh I feel greasy and awful.

Enjoy your breakfast iris 🥳
