    Doctors and dentists do seem to contradict each other. Doctor says several small meals instead of one big one, dentist says the more often you eat the worse it is for your teeth. Doctor says you need fruit, dentist says it’s too much sugar.

      Sounds like both are probably true and the optimal solution is to just swallow some sort of sci-fi-esque nutritious food paste or meal replacement straight through a tube.

      But I’d rather take the risk of cavities every once in a while than lose my sanity.

      feels to me like dentists see teeth as precious pearls that should never be touched by anything but the most gentle of waters and cared for every day for at least an hour

      i really don’t get it, body parts are meant to be used, not just look pretty
