16 h. ago Back to school, work, reality: what to eat now summer is over

The shift from August to September can be brutal, so we’ve compiled the best dishes to avoid the dread of the work canteenSeptember arrives and, with it, the sudden, brutal gear shift from slow, lazy August, the mad rush to catch up on all the work you’ve been neglecting, to reconnect with the friends who’ve been away during summer. It’s back to the commute, back to work, back to school We are also back at school – every Thursday for the past few years we’ve been taking pottery classes at college. From 10 in the morning until five in the evening we are covered in clay; our muddy fingers cannot check the phone every five minutes, and everyone at work knows not to contact us unless it’s an emergency – and even then, only if there’s something we can actually do about it.

1 week ago My cultural awakening: an ancient statue made me fall in love with my fat body

I spent decades being ashamed of the way I look. Then a visit to the Natural History Museum changed everythingI still remember the moment my body image issues began as if it were yesterday. The shaming came before the bingeing: I was 18 and my mum told me I needed to start being careful with my eating, because I was “getting fat”.She would say: “You’d be so pretty if you’d just lose weight!” I wasn’t overweight at the time, and I felt so angry.

Then came remorse and shame: a cycle of bingeing and restriction. Continue reading...

It’s telling that as Konami releases its remake, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, eve...
