100% nonconfrontational only-love-and-care towards your internal parts is largely unnecessary, sometimes stunting, and is better replaced by Respect for all parts of yourself

There may be an inverse in there somewhere—the more time and energy you spend building a convincing argument, the less likely your point is to be right.

this is the worst one but i will grant you the sausage and bacon. the objectively best combination of pizza toppings i've ever tasted was bacon and potato, surprisingly rare considering how insanely good it is
there are two places in berkeley that do bacon + potato on pizza iirc and i've never seen it anywhere else. absolute madness
