Age-Defying Delights: Foods for a Youthful Glow”
1. Extra virgin olive oil
Tumblr media
Extra virgin olive oil is one of the most nutritious oils on the planet. It's high in good fats and antioxidants, which help reduce inflammation and oxidative damage produced by a free radical imbalance in the body.
A high-olive-oil diet has been associated to a lower risk of chronic diseases such as;
heart disease
type 2 diabetes
metabolic syndrome
certain types of cancer
Monounsaturated fats (MUFAs) account for approximately 73% of olive oil. Some research suggests that a diet high in MUFAs may help decrease skin ageing due to the anti-inflammatory properties of these good fats. Extra virgin olive oil contains antioxidants such as tocopherols and beta carotene, as well as phenolic compounds with anti-inflammatory properties. In fact, according to one 2012 study, persons who ate a diet high in MUFAs from olive oil had a decreased risk of severe skin ageing.
The anti-inflammatory qualities of both MUFAs and antioxidants contained in olive oil, according to the authors, were most likely responsible for this impact.
Choose cold pressed extra virgin olive oil since it contains more antioxidants and is less processed than other methods of extraction. Try it in a salad or dip.
2. Green Tea
Tumblr media
Green tea is abundant in antioxidants, which might aid the body combat free radicals.
Free radicals are unstable chemicals produced by regular cell action. They can also arise in reaction to environmental stresses such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation or tobacco smoke. When free radicals are present in large concentrations, they can cause cell damage.
This is where antioxidants come into play. These molecules bind to free radicals, preventing them from causing damage. Antioxidants are typically obtained through diet, such as green tea.
Green tea is particularly abundant in polyphenols, which are antioxidants. It contains a lot of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), catechins, and gallic acid.
These may reduce your risk of:
heart disease
neurological decline
premature aging
other chronic diseases
Green tea polyphenols may help prevent external skin ageing caused by environmental stresses such as the sun and pollution by scavenging free radicals before they damage the skin. Green tea extract is used in many skin care products because of its antioxidant and antiaging effects. More research, however, is required before green tea products can be suggested to decrease skin ageing.
Green tea contains a lot of antioxidants. As a result, it may help protect your skin from free radical damage caused by environmental sources such as pollution or sunlight. However, more research is required.
3. Avocadoes
Tumblr media
Any beauty store will sell avocado eye cream, sheet masks, and other skincare treatments that boast the green fruit's capacity to moisturise the skin. According to research, eating avocados may potentially provide some anti-aging advantages.3
A tiny study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology found that eating an avocado every day for eight weeks improved skin elasticity and firmness.3 According to the study, meals high in monounsaturated fats and antioxidant carotenoids may promote younger-looking skin. Carotenoids are natural colours found in many fruits, vegetables, and fungus, and they also act as antioxidants, reducing damage from free radicals.
4. Tomatoes
Tumblr media
Tomatoes are high in vitamin C and antioxidants, which may be beneficial to the skin. A quick scroll on TikTok will reveal artisans combining the fruit with yoghurt to form a natural face mask.
Eating tomatoes may also make your skin look younger. A 2001 randomised controlled research discovered that eating tomato paste may help make the skin more resistant to UV damage.

I’d actually never heard the term before, despite having spent significant time being tattooed, knowing artists, and working in a tattoo shop. So I looked it up and no, it’s not shock, lmao. Like obviously, very clearly not. Some people end up having a very mild immune response to it, very rarely someone is allergic to something used (been there once, though it was just called “adhesive allergy”), or some degree of drop/crash after being nervous/excited that happens to lots of people after any big event. (The description sounds like con drop or post marathon blues, post theatre stuff. It’s not at all uncommon.) Adrenaline crashes are real and do suck, and can make you more vulnerable to illnesses, which is why you do proper aftercare and take it easy and do infection prevention stuff. But hey, it’s always just a conspiracy by the evil tattoo industry to trick people into a totally life-threatening situation that they’re too stupid to understand the risks of as they destroy their pristine bodies.

ID 1: Screenshot from Let’s Talk Palestine’s Instagram text channel. Their most recent text reads:
“Hi everyone.
Gaza has officially run out of fuel and electricity. Here’s what this means:
Hospitals cannot operate without electricity. Emergency fuel will run out today.
Refrigerated food will now soon expire. As Israel has cut Gaza off of all food, this accelerates the threat of mass starvation looming over people, including more than 1 million kids. Children. Babies. Toddlers.
Media blackout: our access to information will become severely limited, as even foreign media outlets based in Gaza can no longer charge their equipment.
We have no words. Nothing can convey the horrors that will unfold unless the world forces Israel to stop. Nothing justified the deliberate starving and executing of children and civilians. SPEAK OUT.” Two red exclamation point emojis follow. At the time of the screenshot, 261 people had liked the message. End ID.
Tumblr media
ID 2: Screenshot of Let’s Talk Palestine’s most recent Instagram post. First slide reads, “Israel is Pushing 2 million Gazans to the Brink of Death.
Israel has completely cut off all food supplies from Gaza. If not reversed, this decision sets Gaza on the path to mass starvation for all 2.3 million people living there.
Israel has destroyed the only exit out of Gaza. The Rafah Crossing into Egypt is effectively closed now after a third Israeli bombing in the last 24 hours.
This means that Gazans are now completely trapped with no way out to escape the bombings.” End ID.
Tumblr media
ID 3: Continuing: “Israel has imposed a "total" siege on Gaza.
Cutting it off from electricity, water, and fuel. Without electricity, Gaza's already overflowing hospitals will no longer be able to save the lives of civilians attacked by Israel.
Israel is carpet bombing entire neighborhoods and cities - targeting residential buildings, hospitals, and UN schools.
An entire family has been wiped out in an Israeli airstrike, with all 19 members killed in their home, including children.” End ID.
Tumblr media
ID 4: The next slide reads: “Israel threatened Egypt that it would bomb humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza, prompting Egypt to withdraw its aid convoys.
177,000 PEOPLE ARE SEEKING REFUGE IN 88 U.N. SCHOOLS THAT HAVE BEEN CONVERTED INTO EMERGENCY SHELTERS but these schools are no longer safe as Israeli airstrikes have been targeting them.” End ID.
Tumblr media
ID 5: Continuing: “10% OF THE POPULATION HAS ALREADY BEEN DISPLACED FROM THEIR HOMES IN JUST THREE DAYS.
THATS 20,000 PEOPLE.
200,000 children, mothers, fathers, and elderly.” End ID.
Tumblr media
ID 6: The next slide reads: “50% OF GAZA'S POPULATION IS UNDER THE AGE OF 15.
ISRAEL HAS ALREADY KILLED 260 CHILDREN
HOSPITALS ARE OVERWHELMED AS THEY REACH FULL CAPACITY AND PRE-RESERVED MEDICAL RESOURCES HAVE BEEN DEPLETED AS 13 ISRAELI ATTACKS HAVE HIT GAZA'S HEALTH FACILITIES.” End ID.
Tumblr media
ID 7: The final Instagram slide reads: “THIS IS NOT WAR.
MASS STARVATION IS NOT WAR.
BOMBING HOSPITALS IS NOT WAR.
WIPING OUT ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOODS IS NOT WAR.
THIS IS MASS MURDER.
THIS IS AN ANNIHILATION OF MORE THAN TWO MILLION PEOPLE ALREADY PERSECUTED UNDER APARTHEID.
SPEAK OUT.
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.” End ID.
Tumblr media
ID 8: Screenshot of the caption for the aforementioned Instagram post. It reads: “This is not an exaggeration. This is not something we wrote lightly. Two million people are being dragged by Israel towards mass annihilation, and it's only escalating further every hour. The patterns are appearing, namely the policy of starvation.
And the thousands of people who adopted Israeli rhetoric in the last few days here on social media are complicit.
Before any mass atrocity is committed against a group of people, they are dehumanized. You called them terrorists, you called them barbaric. You naively played into Israelis' hands, having not at all learnt the lessons from the American so-called "War on Terror" where dehumanising rhetoric and accusations of terrOrism were used to justify and condition people to accept the mass murder of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis.
We are shocked, we are terrified, but most of all we are enraged that the world - especially privileged Westerners - never seem to ever learn their lesson. There are too many celebrities and even too many so-called "progressive activists" who are now complicit in these massacres.
This attack on Gaza it's different. It's different from all the previous attacks. People are saying goodbye to their loved ones abroad. Israel is planning annihilation.
Our people are being murdered. Our people are being slaughtered in their homes. Israeli pilots are targeting schools, hospitals and neighbourhoods. You care about civilians? SPEAK OUT. SHARE.”
33,917 people at the time of the screenshot had liked the post and 655 people had commented. End ID.

this generation of kids is so fucked and it’s so depressing to watch in real time. the amount of parents that are like “my preschooler got covid/rsv/had to be hospitalized but it’s ok because kids get sick all the time” is so……in 20 years or so when these kids are in early adulthood we’re going to have an increase in autoimmune diseases and chronic respiratory illnesses along with heart conditions and strokes due to repeated covid infections and researchers are going to be scratching their heads on the cause and ignoring that we let kids go back to schools mid-pandemic with no disease mitigation and then ignored a second respiratory disease resurgence

hey how come flowey and golden flowers don't have leaves?
i don't really know much but like, don't you need leaves to absorb sunlight right????
and yes the waterfall ones are in the dark but otherwise, they're found where there's sunlight -the hole the humans fall down and then Asgore's garden beside the barrier. Golden Flowers are determined and hardy, they can survive in harsh areas but they clearly thrive more under Asgore's care (and presumedly, sunlight)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
no leaves
maybe with leaves???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
LEAVES????
Tumblr media
so like, omega flowey is hard to consider whats canon or not. cause there's no evidence elsewhere that golden flowers have red (or pale) thorns. Tho, the vines he uses to capture the main cast with are completely green. (And Asgore's garden has vines on the wall, so maybe they are a natrual part of golden flowers?)
But maybe not. To me its clear he's mimicking cactuses (which Toriel has in her home, so we know those are underground)

My best friend was like, "It's kind of funny that Trump's son has the same name as your dog."
I very indignantly defended the honor of my dog's name and insisted it might be pronounced the same but is totally different.
Best friend: the dog's name is Baron, right? B-A-R-O-N? Pretty close.
Me: It's Beren, with two E's, like the Tolkien character. My dog was named for the coolest man in the Silmarillion.
