    It's all about posture. The geeks, laden down by the weight of their glasses, have their butts turn upwards to counter-balance. These are the assholes, they unwittingl shit on everyone.

    Jocks, having a strong core and a tight ass get their pelvis pushed forward. These are the dicks. Dicks like to fuck everybody over.

    But since recorded history in greece, the dicks always like to beat on the assholes.

    The sooner you accept you're an asshole, the sooner you can turn it around.

    The real question is how many nanoparticles of anything are safe?

    I don't really keep up with materials science, but have never encountered one single nanoparticle that isn't detrimental to humans, animals, or the environment. If we did discover a safe one it would probably be because it's already found in nature.

    Kitchen scale, it's what professionals use. At most I dirty two bowls one dry, one wet.

    Meat is prepped when purchased. Most of the time I pre-prep my veg as well. This is what pros do.

    If cooking multiple things, you're most likely feeding lots of people or you're doing it wrong. Everybody at the very least can wash their own plate.

    And don't spill stuff. Accidents on the stove are either poor technique or not paying attention! I've been in kitchens where clean up can take minutes or it can take hours.

    Clean as you go, because if you're constantly stirring stuff on the stove you're more likely doing that wrong as well.

    Oh, and probably most important of all, don't use toxic non-stick. A well seasoned cast-iron pan takes seconds to clean. Learn how to make pan sauces, acid/water and heat is all that's required to get a clean stainless steel pan/pot and a tasty sauce.

    Unfortunately, rice and beans are seen as poor people food, and the sad fact is that a lot of vegetariens are more concerned with image than actual health(thanks USA for ruining that!)

    Brown rice takes considerable amount of prep time if you want to make the nutrients bio-available. There is a reason white rice is consumned the world over. Ferment for a week for best results, or else you're actually 'poisoning' yourself!

Not sure how much they'll rape you for that in the US, but here it's cheaper than taking a bus both ways.
