How to make air fryed chicken nuggets
Monday, 5 June 2023
Hey readers,
Easy homemade air fryer chicken nuggets recipe with a golden crispy coating and tender, juicy chicken inside!
Ingredients.
* 400g chicken breast fillets.
* 4 tbsp plain flour.
* One egg, lightly beaten.
*115g panko breadcrumbs or other dried breadcrumbs.
* 2 tbsp vegetable or sunflower oil.
How to make.
- 1. Preheat the air fryer to 200° C for 5 minutes.
- 2. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Put the details on a layer of cling film, cover with another layer of cling film, and then use a rolling pin to bash the pieces until around 2-3mm thick and uniform.
4. Dip each chicken piece in the flour, then into the egg (shaking off the excess), and finally toss in the breadcrumbs and transfer to the air fryer container. We find that breadcrumbing using one hand is less messy.
5. Air fry the chicken nuggets at 200°c for 10-15 minutes or until crispy. Make sure regularly turning over the nuggets. That’s it – so easy!
Enjoy.

How to show respect to a person with autism.
Friday, 2 June 2023
Hey readers,
Autism is a condition that impairs a person's capacity for interaction and communication.
People with autism frequently experience prejudice from society. Given the societal conventions surrounding autism, it is pretty simple for non-autistic people to internalise ableism towards autistic persons.
Fortunately, it is possible to overcome these prejudices and develop a tolerance for autistic people, which will be discussed in this post.
1. Recognise any biases you have.
Recognise any factors that may be influencing your prejudice against autistic persons.
Is it a result of the environment you're in? Have you ever met someone who has autism? Unaware of it, many people internalise the information they are exposed to.
You need to be aware of your bias, even if you don't mean any harm.
What comes to mind when you think about autistic people? Is it a result of generalisations you may have heard?

It's critical to determine whether you have internalised ableism because it frequently has roots in other prejudices.
2. Be respectful.
Recognise that you might be acting in ways that an autistic person might find uncomfortable. Numerous autistic people experience sensory problems due to various sounds, sensations, tastes, or sights.
Don't do something if someone in your life, whether autistic or not, informs you that it makes them uncomfortable, such as loud noises like chewing and slurping, which might exacerbate sensory problems.
Don't take it personally if someone leaves the room or finds another solution, like putting on headphones if they've made it apparent that a sound is triggering their sensory issues.
Don't make things obvious. Many autistic individuals use repetitive habits as a calming technique.
Don't make a big deal out of something an autistic person does that you find weird.
These mannerisms include things like humming, tapping their foot, and back-and-forth swaying.
Inform them formally if they are creating a commotion.
Inform them formally if they are creating a commotion.
Later, don't make a big deal out of it.
Pay attention to them. A special interest, sometimes known as a subject of particular enthusiasm, is something that many autistic individuals share.
Do not minimise them for their hobbies if they choose to discuss them.
Don't be harsh about it if it isn't a good time to talk! You don't want to discredit somebody for having strong opinions.

3. Educate yourself.
Find out more about autism. Due to its extreme complexity, autism is frequently referred to as a spectrum disorder.
Understanding how people with autism experience it is essential because no two autistic persons are alike.
Take care when choosing your sources. Since there is a lot of misunderstanding about autism, it's crucial to use resources from nonprofits and organisations that concentrate primarily on autism.
Don't go to Autism Speaks. Look for sources written by autistic people!
Speak to those who are autistic in your life.
Speak to those who are autistic in your life.
Inquire of anyone you know who has ASD about their experiences. It's a lot simpler to understand that persons with autism are much like everyone else when you can interact with one in person.
Consider how you can assist them more effectively! It's crucial to help them just like you would any of your friends, whether lending a sympathetic ear about issues related to their disease or simply treating them like any other person.
Don't just approach someone with autism and ask them about it. If you are close enough to someone to be able to ask about their experience with the disease, only do so.

How to get over being ghosted.
Monday, 29 May 2023
Hey readers,
Being ignored, whether it's by a friend or a romantic interest, being ghosted always hurts.
If your calls and texts start going unanswered, don't be hard on yourself.
Avoid demanding an explanation or sending furious messages, and maintain your composure.
Don't worry about the little things if an online dating match or casual acquaintance turns you down.
It can be pretty painful if someone close to you deliberately ignores you. Allow yourself time to mourn.
What does it mean by ghosting?
When a person you are dating or getting to know suddenly vanishes without a trace, it is called ghosting.
This can occur both at the start and the middle of a relationship, offline or online.
Being ghosted is challenging, especially since you typically don't know what caused it or how to respond.
The person abruptly stops communicating with you and won't return your calls, texts, emails, or social media messages.
Being on the receiving end of these activities can negatively impact one's mental health.
Find out more about how to proceed if it occurs to you or someone you know.
Ways to get over being ghosted!
1. Avoid contacting them.
It's time to quit reaching out and let go if it's been a few weeks and you've sent one last message to clear the air but received no response
2. Establish sound limits.
On your social network, block them. NOW. Set limits for how much time you spend thinking about this individual and for yourself. Keep them from "renting space in your brain."
3. Recognise your emotions.
It is unfair to be ghosted, yes. In fact, it hurts. And even though you tell yourself it doesn't matter, you will still feel annoyed, frustrated, numb, or outraged. Being ghosted is bound to cause all of these reactions.
It will be simpler to let go of your pain the sooner you accept it.
4. Accept the situation and give yourself time to adjust.
It can be beneficial to accept the situation, acknowledge your sentiments, and give yourself time to work through them.
Allow yourself to experience the sorrow; after all, you have every right to be upset after being ghosted. It's crucial to admit how much it hurts since that's the only way to go past this.
5. Expose shame.
Shame is challenging to handle. It can feel impossible to discuss, which makes it isolated. Scandals might result from ghosting in particular.
Being rejected hurts, and your brain might try to understand it by telling you you were to blame.
However, keep in mind that it's not about you. However, shame loses some of its impact when it is spoken. Everybody experiences guilt at some point.
Sharing your embarrassment with a close friend or family member may help you realise how cruel you are to yourself.
There may be arguments for and against ghosting, but in either case, avoiding conflict is unhealthy.
If we do not know how to resolve disputes healthily, civilisations of people who value evasiveness, lack emotional intelligence and are incapable of handling conflict may develop.
By developing our ability to take on challenging circumstances, we can increase our resilience, discover more about our unique personalities, and develop into better problem-solving individuals.
It's critical to keep in mind that being ghosted is not an indication of your value as a person or of your worth.
The other person's actions and limits are instead reflected in it. You may move past the experience by putting your own needs first and taking care of yourself.
