  Right. I hear people pushing passport cards. I can so easily imagine “Here’s my passport card” “Thanks”

  “Where’s your id?” “I gave you my passport card” “No you didn’t/what passport card?”

  I don’t often feel hungry or have a drive to eat, until I am literally dizzy from low blood sugar. I have found in my life that the need to prepare food can often be a stumbling block to me actually eating. For a while my go-tos were instant oatmeal or cup of noodles. I also have no problem eating the same thing repetitively (see my hummus and cheese sandwich lunch for over a year).

  Soylent was bland, but pretty much instantaneous. I could notice that it was after a certain point in time, have a soylent shake ready to go in less than a minute and sip on that while doing other things.

  I’m not still doing it because now I have a partner who will (sometimes) ensure that food ready to eat is shoved in front of me in a semi regular basis. (Additionally sometimes it is easier to think “I need to prep food for partner” and then there’s dinner for me too, than trying to make the time to make dinner for myself).

  abused by both their patients who lack the mental faculties to know what they’re doing and their workplaces

  Oh theres a number of patients who are of fully aware of what they are doing who are happy to have a chance to abuse someone they see as below them (either because of classism or racism or sexism).
