They/them screaming at the void

[girlmuppet]

Do any of u have decent recipes that are like 5 ingredients (not including spices) and take 45 mins or less to prepare i gotta stop eating sandwiches for dinner

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

yeah hang on

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

ignore the title of this google doc because it's a long story but it's a really solid recipe for southwest chicken alfredo

this is a vegetarian potato curry recipe that's about 75% spices; once you get the potatoes in there you can really do whatever you want with it

this is literally just pasta, broccoli, and cheese babey and you can live off that shit for DAYS it makes such a big portion

bro this spinach/pesto/3 cheese flatbread is so fucking tasty bro

also you can make the flatbread yourself it's super quick!!

oh hey I'm eating this white chickpea chili right now, much like the curry it's mostly spices and you can do p much do whatever you want with it

don't let the name fool you these potatoes are delicious any time. not just breakfast.

this is slightly more than five ingredient when you add them together but if you have time and really wanna fuckin treat yourself I recommend these chicken strips + this cornbread + either these potatoes or these buttered veggies on the side.

These are my two favorite comfort foods. They're very easy to make and dont take long to cook.

Garlic butter rice

Orzo mac and cheese (comes out a little bit soupy)

this recipe for gogumabap (sweet potato and rice) saved my life when i couldn't eat hardly anything for a long time. the recipe itself calls for a heavy bottomed pot but you can absolutely use a rice cooker and put the rice and diced sweet potato in together and just let the machine do its thing

If you have a crockpot, I do a really good pulled pork carnitas that is:

Pork - any cut boneless

Onions- chopped anyway you like

Orange juice - about one cup (you can use about 2 tablespoons of the condensed frozen stuff if you have it)

Root beer, pepsi, or other cola soda - about one cup

Preferred chili mix seasoning - 1-2 packets depending on how intense you like your flavoring and how much pork you put in

Garlic - as much as you wanna, specifically smashed not cut

Canned or frozen corn - to your preference

Dump all that into your crockpot in the morning (or the night before) and let it run on low until dinner. Cook some rice if you feel like it, or just serve over tortillas.

bro WTF, I wanna try this just for the sheer shit of it

The European Union already forced Apple to abandon its proprietary charging port and adopt USB-C across its entire iPhone lineup. It just did something bigger. A new EU mandate requires every smartphone sold in Europe including Apple devices to feature a battery that can be replaced by the user without specialist tools, without voiding a warranty, and without sending the device to a manufacturer approved service center. Batteries must maintain a minimum capacity threshold after a set number of charge cycles and replacement parts must remain available for up to ten years after a model goes on sale.

The consumer electronics industry built its current business model around batteries that degrade, cannot be replaced at home, and create a natural upgrade cycle every two to three years. The EU just legislated that model out of existence in the world's largest regulatory market.

Apple, Samsung, and every other manufacturer now faces a choice between redesigning their devices for the European market or accepting that their current hardware architecture is no longer legally sellable there.

Given that no company walks away from European consumers voluntarily the phones are going to change and once they change for Europe the rest of the world will ask why theirs still do not.

specific pain stretches, condensed

absolute fuckwaffle / pectoral stretches

basically any stretches where you hold your arms behind your back and puff your chest out, keeping shoulders back and blades together

lace hands behind your head/top of neck, your elbows pointing out to the sides. allow your head to fall back into hands as you open chest and squeeze shoulder blades together

traitor / neck retraction

lay down or lean back on a flat surface and tuck your chin into your neck. hold it there for a bit, relax into usual state, then repeat

drop your head in different directions to relieve tension held there

jackass / drop shoulders

holding your shoulders super tense before letting them go in relaxed pose

more shoulder stretches

and then there's this asshole / superman exercise (yes it's really called that)

lay on your belly with arms fully extended over head and legs straight back; look straight down. contract your glutes (clench your butt) to lift your legs and arms off the the floor towards the ceiling. stop when you feel a flex in your lower back, hold for a second, then return to start.

wiggle out with a brief cat/cow (arch back up, arch back down) to relieve the last of tension if needed

cannot understand why people like youtubers who are yelling the entire time. why do you let that man raise his voice at you.

what a beautiful day to not be in high school

[gayofthefae]

This is the like those “remember to be grateful you don’t have a sore throat right now” posts. It IS a beautiful day to not be in high school! Thank you!

[jayontwitter]

augh going through it sucks. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE ONLY WAY OUT IS THROUGH! i should be able to burrow through the problem and come out the other side with the power of logic and compartmentalization

[erratic-dragon-fruit]

I raise you the concept of rocky holding five shardblades and spinning through space like a beyblade of death

[jayontwitter]

idk if anyone will see this but i’m going through a breakup after my first serious relationship and dawg….this shit blows so hard. any recommendations are so welcome. literally anything that isn’t screaming “i miss you!!” into the void

[sunny-sourzii]

They make me sick btw

[jelicatessen]

so i've been in a bunch of fandoms where a major character conflict is the choice between a character's most important person and the world, and one of my favourite things about project hail mary is that Eva Stratt actually chooses the world and then has to live with it, and isn't that so fucking delicious

[heathertrash10-blog]

Reblog if

It’s 104% okay to come to your DM and just say, “Hi, can we be friends?” And then start asking you random questions.

“grace do big science!” rocky i hate to break it to you but that is a molecular biologist. hes working with very tiny subject matter. tiny science. minuscule science. microscopic science

[blanketcoffin]

"stratt does bad stuff but it was necessary" WRONG i am very far on the opinion that stratt should not be considered bad at all full stop. i think that when the entire planet is at stake, when the other train track has 8 billion people and every ecosystem in the world? nothing she does is unjustified and it's frankly hypocritical to call any of her actions evil, as if she had a choice and as if you wouldnt do the same. project hail mary was a near-impossible long shot to begin with. if it means the chance of earth's survival goes up by even a thousandth of a percentage, then yes, the person who gets sent up will be the most qualified rather than the most willing.

none of us get to impose any sort of moral or ethical judgement on eva stratt because we are not exempt from the dilemma. we are not bystanders in her trolley problem, we are tied to the tracks, and she is too, but she's the only one who can reach the lever. if nuking antarctica is what lets earth stay habitable for even a few more years then so be it. if kidnapping a goodhearted school teacher to send into a one-way mission means we have a higher chance of survival then so be it. if taking responsibilty over the project means eva stratt goes down in history as a criminal tyrant rather than a hero, then so be it; at least there will be a world for history to be passed down to.

she is not a villain, that is a train of thought that you can only have when you observe from some lofty plane as an audience. it's some real "if i were orpheus i wouldn't turn around" thinking. yes it wasn't ideal but you are missing the point

[jayontwitter]

i actually really love eva stratt as a character because it’s kind of a given in a lot of fiction that if a character is given a choice of a) save the world or b) save their friend/parent/love interest they’re almost always going to choose the individual. the stakes of “the world” are too high but the stakes of “my loved one” are very relatable. readers want to see the loved one saved - not the world. but eva saves the world. time and time again. whether she has to sacrifice the sahara, antarctica, or ryland grace she chooses the world. and i think that’s beautiful.

stop. analyse that text through the lens of its author's intentions and original historical context. okay now take the author out back and kill them dead and analyse that text as though it were published by your mutual yesterday and is in direct conversation the contemporary discourse that's most relevant to your life. okay now pick your favorite angle of interpretation and come up with the strongest possible argument against it. now imagine that the text is your best friend and that it means you well and that you naturally give it every benefit of the doubt because you're on its side and you want the best for it. now imagine that the text wants you dead and it'll eat you if you don't eat it first. now pretend that you found this text locked away in a cave with no evidence of when or where it came from and you have to divine its meaning solely through its internal coherence and nothing else. okay now address the elephant in the room aspect of the text you've been ignoring because you find it boring or confusing or uncomfortable and become the number one expert on it. now spend forty minutes assigning all the characters dnd classes with at least three sentences of reasoning each. okay now do the cha cha slide.
