What stage did Jacob imprint? Was it baby, fetus, or undifferentiated cell? I recall something about baby Resentment being the reason he was crushing on Bella from the beginning.

Making friends with people from other countries is so crazy. I sent my group chat a Big Bird gif.

And this one girl says, “why isn’t he blue?”

I’m like, the fuck you mean??

So today I learned that in the Dutch version of Sesame Street, they do, in fact, have a blue Big Bird.

I was baffled by this so I went on Muppets Wiki and guess what.

In Mexico, Big Bird is green and his name is Abelardo.

Turkish Big Bird (aka Minik Kus) is apparently fucking orange.

This looks like a fuckin alternate universe or smth. I can’t.

Actually, in the Mexican version (which is the one I saw here in Colombia, and was probably streamed in other countries in Latin America) we had both the yellow and the green bird. That is because Abelardo (the green bird) is the Mexican cousin of Big bird. Initially it was supposed to be the Mexican version of Big Bird, but then it was decided to leave both characters and make them cousins to help explain the kids about the migration wave between USA and Mexico in the 90s

There is even a chapter of the show were Abelardo travels to the US to visit his cousin Big Bird

Later, they decided that all the different birds, from all the versions around the world, would be "cousins" too, with the idea of showing the diversity of cultures and teach the kids about unity and acceptance against racism and discrimination

I don’t care what anyone says this was the most powerful photo from yesterday

These women carrying the electoral college votes back to the senate hours after the Capitol Building was breached and they went into lockdown. They had the conscience to take the boxes with them into a secure area because they knew full well if they didn’t, the insurrectionists would tamper them, steal them. In the most literal form, they would steal the election from the American people.

[what-even-is-thiss]

Shoutout to the capitol staff for thinking of those boxes in the middle of an actual terrorist attack

is twitter suspending trump as he’s on his way out after giving him an hugely influential platform for four years an incredibly token gesture? of course. but is it also really funny? absolutely

Peak comedy would be if trump made a tumblr because he’s banned everywhere else and we cyberbullied him

did carrie underwood effectively utilize girl power when she dug her key into the side of her bf’s pretty little souped up four wheel drive, carved her name into its leather seats, took a louisville slugger to both headlights and slashed a hole in all four tires? discuss

[psychoticrambling]

for context: twitter is plagued by art-thief-bots. Any image that has multiple comments along the line of “I want this on a tshirt” will be automatically be uploaded and sold without the artist’s knowledge. So artists started making images full of blatant copyrighted images like the one above, and asking people to spam comment “I want this on a tshirt” then report the site to disney. A few of these tshirt-bot sites have actually been taken down this way.

ok so

everyone knows about this meme, right?

but does anyone else know the woman who made the food? no? time to educate!

This is “Mother Mary”, the owner of Blackberry’s mother.

She made all the cakes for the restaurant while it was open. Chef Gordon Ramsay tried her red velvet cake, and spoke this meme-able line:

He then called Mary over, complimented her food, and gave her a peck on the cheek.

Look how happy she was to hear that!!!

anyways, I hope she has been able to continue her love for baking since the restaurant closed down.

[tasmanianstripes]

For these who don’t know: The restaurant she worked at closed down but she left before that and opened her own bakery, that’s apparently very successful!

real tired of hearing the vegan vs. omnivore arguments when the real superior diet in terms of both cruelty and ecosystem is locally sourced

beef and pork from a farm 10 minutes away from you is more ethical and less detrimental to the environment than quinoa grown in ecuador. the future is food forests. the green revolution is food forests. if we manage to survive this apocalyptic hellscape all of your food, plant and animal, is going to come from within half an hour of where you live. plant a vegetable garden in the meantime

[clouddoggo]

As a trained conservation biologist this is the most important step we can take. You do not understand how many issues we could solve if people bought most of their food from local sources.

i just realized that some people watch succession bc of the themes of power and wealth, not for family trauma and repressed gays, and they are the target audience
