self-expression comes from a desire to connect and i've only got so much of that in me when we're looking forward to, idk, jake paul as the leader of the free world. this cannot be the world i'm trying to communicate with. my dumb ass grew up in 1990s France eager to join the chorus of humankind you have to understand. filled with belief in kindness and progress and boundless optimism for the future. there is absolutely none of that going around right now unless you're a defense contractor. as one human being to another i am asking you to please be there for each other, please build a better world where art can prosper and please stop those who gleefully bomb the innocent, by any means necessary

America is genuinely so cooked rn

I saw AI generated ads on TV two days in a row this week and I hate living in this modern corporate hell so now it’s time to age regress to ten years ago when none of this late stage capitalism bullcrap happened and I could look forward to the release of pokémon sun and moon

[alyphhelix]

ok but the pokemon franchise is rife with signs of late stage capitalism. the games come out wildly unpolished every year and they sell everything from cardboard to cake mix with pictures of pokemon on them.

[jsketch12]

see that would make sense in 2025 but back in the 3DS era they actually cared about the amount of polish in their games

they are both evil for being alive

I like the idea of grey aliens having crazy frantic sex without any erogenous zones or sex organs. Like just jumping up and down on each others heads and pulling each other around by the feet

[the-clapping-smiling-pig]

You open the door to an alien boudoir and the only thing happening back there is a little grey alien in a corset and high heels slapping and poking the eyes of another grey who is sitting on the edge of a bed

This is Money Snake. She only appears every 312 years. 

If you reblog her picture within the next twenty-five seconds you will have good luck and fortune for the rest of your life.

Shout out to the doctor who responded with complete sincerity when I (on anesthesia) uttered the phrase “chat are we cooked” in her medical professional vicinity. You’re such a real one for that fr fr

For anyone who wants an easy copy-paste into their favourite recipe keeper:

Pumpkin Pudding Pie w/Orange Zest and Cardamom Whipped Cream

(makes ~3 pies)

Ingredients:

Pie:

2 ½ cups sugar

15oz can pumpkin puree

2 eggs

½ tsp baking soda

2 cups flour

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp ground cinnamon

¼ tsp vanilla

pinch of salt

2½ cups milk

4 TBSP butter (melted)

1 orange

1 tsp powdered sugar

Whipped Cream:

1 cup heavy cream

2 TBSP powdered sugar

1 tsp cardamom

pinch nutmeg

-----------

Instructions:

Pie:

Preheat the oven to 325°F

Prepare the pie crust (that's another recipe's job- either find a scratch recipe or buy a pre-made dough or graham cracker crust)

Blend 2½ cups sugar, pumpkin puree, eggs, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl (if using a mixer, blend with a paddle attachment)

Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt; blend until well mixed

Add the milk and melted butter, whisk until well mixed (if using a mixer, blend with the whisk attachment)

Pour your batter into the crust, filling right up to the edge (the mix will be more liquid than solid, but it will rise/solidify in the oven)

Bake at 325°F for 55 minutes

Remove from the oven and let it cool

Top with sifted powdered sugar

Zest an orange over the top of the pie (microplane if possible but regular zester is fine; have found that the most aesthetically pleasing version is to peel the orange and then finely dice the peel but that's a hassle!)

Whipped cream:

Put your metal mixing bowl and whisk in the freezer for at least 15 minutes

Whisk powdered sugar, cardamom, and nutmeg together in bowl

Add heavy cream; whisk until stiff peaks start forming

Serve on a cooled pie :)
