why is this still the saddest part of the finale to me

Dear people living on your own for the first time:

Here’s some advice I wasn’t told from the myriad of posts before that I wish I’d been given before

Wash the OUTSIDE of your pots and pans as well as the cooking surface. I’ve had a few roommates now who have only cleaned the inside and I’ve had to replace a $150 set of cookware twice.

“its only one time, how bad could using metal on nonstick cookware really be?” very bad. don’t do this.

Buy a rice cooker. Buy the middle tier rice cooker. Cheap ones will burn your rice, high tier ones are too expensive. Rice is good and cheap and, really, you don’t actually have to wash it if you don’t care about making gourmet food.

Buy band-aids. You don’t think you need band-ads until you need a band-aid, and by then it’s too late. (if you don’t follow this advice, a paper towel and some tape is an acceptable solution while you go get real bandages and neosporin)

You are on tumblr, which means you probably spend most of your time in one spot on a computer or phone. if this spot doesn’t have a trash can in arm’s reach, put one there.

I spent 4 years piling trash on my desk in increasingly precarious ways until I had a designated area to put it. Trash cans can and should go anywhere there is a frequent generation of trash, typical locations be damned.

If you live with one or two roommates, discuss placing empty boxes in the back of your fridge and freezer. You probably don’t need all the space that the standard 5-person-family fridge provides, and tupperware will be shoved back there and left to stink up the entire appliance.

Get a wall calendar, put it somewhere communal, and have everyone put their household-relevant schedules on it. Communication is by far the weakest link with roommates (even good ones!) and having something to reference for appointments is always good

Hey this post is pretty good but please always wash your rice. It’s not to make it taste better, it’s to remove aflatoxin, which is created by a very widespread type of fungus and as such is present on most unwashed produce. Chronic exposure to aflatoxin leads to higher risk of liver and gallbladder cancer. I don’t blame anyone for not knowing this, as I didn’t until I started taking classes about cancer for my microbiology degree. Please always wash all of your produce and especially your rice, as it has a much higher surface area to volume ratio meaning that it can have a lot more aflatoxin on it than other produce if you don’t wash it.

Laundry/dishwashing detergent pods (ie Tidepods) will clog your laundry machine and dishwasher. Plus, liquid detergent is usually cheaper and doesn't waste when you have smaller loads. (Source: squeemish user has had to unclog 4 dishwashers and laundry machines and it's always those fucking pod cases)

22 YEARS AGO ON DECEMBER 18, 1998 - DREAMWORKS ANIMATION RELEASED “THE PRINCE OF EGYPT”

Because DreamWorks was concerned about theological accuracy, they decided to call in Biblical scholars, Christian, Jewish, and Muslim theologians, and Arab American leaders to help the film be more accurate and faithful to the original story. After previewing the developing film, all these leaders noted that the studio executives listened and responded to their ideas, and praised the studio for reaching out for comment from outside sources.

The animation team for The Prince of Egypt included 350 artists from 34 different nations. Careful consideration was given to depicting the ethnicities of the ancient Egyptians, Hebrews, and Nubians properly.

Both character design and art direction worked to set a definite distinction between the symmetrical, more angular look of the Egyptians versus the more organic, natural look of the Hebrews and their related environments. The backgrounds department, headed by supervisors Paul Lasaine and Ron Lukas, oversaw a team of artists who were responsible for painting the sets/backdrops from the layouts. Within the film, approximately 934 hand-painted backgrounds were created.

I think part of the reason The Queen’s Gambit is so good is because it’s genuinely fun to watch. I think a lot of tv shows nowadays rely on ‘gritty’ torture and heavily sexualised and violent content to be considered edgy and ‘good’. But Queens Gambit wasn’t like that- it didn’t have a female character who just had terrible things DONE to her; her obstacles came from her OWN behaviour and it was so refreshing to see a female character have agency and basically I’m going to rewatch this until I die

Pokémon Go to the Polls! lore because I’m obsessed with it

william and fred met in harvard 17 years ago, where they became best friends and founded googlebook. the fame and money got to be too much and their friendship broke apart.

during the war, william became a navy seal but dipped when he got a vision from god to run for president. he ran on a ‘kill all dogs’ campaign and got destroyed. later, he ran against fred and bought out the entire media system to run attack ads. he won through voter fraud and then immediately nominated fred as VP. he is also battling terminal scurvy.

fred never joined the war, but taught high school after googlebooks collapsed. He is in an open relationship with his wife amy and caleb, the secretary of interior.

caleb (matt’s character) is also a veteran of the war, who was pulled into the government by william to stop him from cutting down the national parks. he had an intern named dave who they jokingly referred to as “secretary of fun”

babs (beth’s character) is the secretary of defense and a war criminal. she was married to dave, but has been having an on-again-off-again affair with caleb for 17 years.

dave was in love with both babs and william, and news of babs’ affair devastated him. he was mauled to death in his underground cockfighting ring, which led to william enacting “dave’s law” to ban cockfighting.

babs and caleb had a daughter together, who babs immediately gave up for adoption without consulting caleb. caleb named her amy, possibly after fred’s wife who he might be in a relationship with. william adopted her (and 11 other children), knowing nothing about her past. she is dating the pokemon mew.

at the end of the meeting, babs set the oval office on fire and may have killed caleb and fred.

william is a ditto.

The beautiful thing about love is that it comes in many forms.

For example:

Sometimes i wake up to a text from my husband reading "good morning sweetie! There's coffee waiting for you on the table!"

And other days it's

"I had a dream you were attacked so I bought two more knives. One to go in your car and one to be used as a spear for home defense."

#thanks ily #no you may not make a spear #true love #love #love quotes
