So I really f***ed up my life these last ten years: Basically over these last ten years I've either eaten at home (three years), eaten at restaurants/gotten delivery (overall have done this the least) or stolen/plundered my meals (probably the main way I fed myself, my university has an insane free food culture and I ran off with an immeasurable amount of food - for example I spent 40 dollars on food for a summer there once - I also built a bunch of dining hall connections and got in for free to the tune of thousands of dollars and for the six months before we got evicted before covid I was also shoplifting some for basic items like fruit and cereal to cover breakfast because I lost my dining hall connects due to the omelette chef thinking I was suicidal and reporting me).
It's a long story but between how the pandemic has hit me and all the trauma over the last decade I basically dissociate from my body all the time and can't handle food and have basically depended on my roommates for all my meals for the last year.
My roommate that's been helping me needs space because they can't take how shook I am on covid so I'm going to be moving into a single next month but they're still going to be coming over nightly to help with dinner and make overnight oats while I rehabilitate myself.
Watching that doro wat video earlier actually made think about how bad I want to work on my dissociation when it comes to food so that I can eat the food of my people, my favorite food, whenever I want. And beyond that how much I want to be able to make my own food so I don't have to depend on anyone else cause even with the kind people I have in my life there are a ton of problems that come with that.
So I'm really aiming to start working on rehabilitating myself in regards to making food in the next few months. Thank you for saying that for real because I need to be thinking and aiming towards that every day.
bro
damn that omelette chef thought you were suicidal so he decided you cut you off?
wouldn’t that just make someone wanna kill themselves even more?

Legit so many things should have killed me by now, I'm lucky to be alive
And nah so what happened with the omelet station was: My guy Sum got replaced randomly one day so between the sudden change and this near death experience I had because of my university trying to box me into a set of dangerous situations the semester before and me walking around feeling like a ghost/other problems when the new person asked me how my day was going I started telling em about all the scary stuff I deal with/have dealt with that was affecting me in the present
She was rightfully shook so she asked for my name, first and last - the name that most people know me by is different than my birth name so my dumbass offered my my real first name
Almost gave my real last name for some reason too
but caught myself and took the first two letters and turned it into Woo instead
(whenever I needed a fake name after that at school, Chris Woo was my go to
)
But that was still enough for her to get into contact with people at my university (to be fair she was trying to help) so the next day the cashier that always let me in was like yo, people are looking for you, you can't keep coming here and that was it

Dawg whenever I hit California for the first time and make it to the bay if you're down to link I promise you I got so many stories for you
Honestly as bad/scary/dangerous this last decade has been I really appreciate it for how hilarious it's been/how much material it provides for my writing

i wish u the best of luck on ur journey
i boycott the omelette station in solidarity with vox
f*** omelettes, most overrated food
japanese omelette tho
never had one, but they look visually lit
awh i wanted to buy a head of romanesco bc i was feeling fun and spicy but they were out
boooooo
I'm Eritrean
I don't care for the raw meat dishes but I promise you if you're getting it out of a restaurant you'll be good, people eat that stuff all the time and if they weren't doing it right they'd get shut down quick + Eritrean/Ethiopian cuisine is all about options so you can always have something else to pair with if you need a different taste/something more familiar to fall back on
Also you already know that spice and seasoning game is beyond on point
Def going to try it one of these days, and i'm already knowing.
