[formaldehydedoesstuff]

Gonna make one hundred soups this year. Starting off with kapustnyak, carrot soup, chickpea soup, and parsnip soup.

4% complete.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

8% complete baybeee. This may end up being a long post. Hope you like the colour of the soup.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

Can't stop won't stop. 15 soups so far.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

Slowed down for a minute because vet bills ate up my grocery budget but made it to 20%, baybEEEE.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

Whoops I slowed down but BAM, 25%. I'm gonna make a comeback baybeeEEEE.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

I AM BECOMING SO POWERFUL

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

Four new BEAN BASED SOUPS, the first one trailblazing because it was a taco soup recipe courtesy of @alex-of-1000-dumbasseries. 61 IN THE BAG, 39 TO GO.

I am also linking my soup planning doc because I can, and it's easier than tagging all of them individually.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

Have I lost all my followers yet? NOT YET. Time for more soups. I'm up to 70 now.

[themythicalcodfish]

OP this is a gorgeous post and I’m so proud of you

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

Thank you, I will take these codfish words to my grave. Also, I have achieved 8 more, putting me at 77 soups. How is 70 plus 9 photos 77? I'm glad you asked.

Earlier, I forgot to include a photo of my cock-a-leekie-soup (#57) - pictured above as the first one of this set - and also I MADE TARATOR TWICE by accident so I've struck one from the record since I'm trying to make 100 soups here, not 99 and one twice.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

A new bowl approaches. Bought myself some soup bowls from the 70s with goofy little geese on them for my own birthday (though I did not get them in time for my miyeok-guk), because what else is free will for. This puts me at 86. I JUST MIGHT MAKE IT? SOMEHOW?

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

A COLOURFUL BATCH featuring another Certified Tumblr Soup because people kept recommending Yeto's Soup, and they were right.

How am I at 92? ALL MY LIFE I'VE BEEN A QUITTER.

[formaldehydedoesstuff]

100/100!

[just-dinosaraus]

This is the sort of thing that makes ME want to make 100 soups/stews.

Man: What’s a matter girl, you had a little bit too much corn?

Pig: *very long disgruntled groan which rises in pitch*

Man: Is that a yeah?

Pig: *shorter groan*

Man: Okay.  Here I come, I gotta get the intoxicated pig… Look at this pig…

Pig: *quiet snort*

Man: Hey!

Pig: *snort*

Man: Are you messed up, girl?  

Pig: *short snort*

Man: Never seen a damn pig… Look at that, that one here’s fine, that one there is fine, this one here is turned belly up 

Pig: *snort snort snort snort*

Man: Hey you

Pig: *snort*

Man: Whoa!  Whoa!  Shit!  [Unintelligible] HOWH!  Come here girl! 

Pig: *grunt grunt grunt*

Man: Holy hell, fuck…I didn’t mean to do that

[kitharion]

“Whoa! Woah! Shit The Bed Almighty!” Is my new favorite expletive

[marzipanandminutiae]

and if anyone’s wondering, the man (from Cecilia, Kentucky, USA) had emptied a broken deer feeder full of accidentally fermented corn into a field where no animals were supposed to be. the pigs broke out of their pen, got into the corn, and the one you see here seriously overindulged

they observed her overnight and got Animal Control to do a check-up on her. she’s fine

so yes, you you can enjoy the video without worrying about Drunk Pig

“millennials are fucking everything up" factoid actualy statistical error. average millennial fucks up only a few times per year. The Eighth Doctor, who was born on december 31st 1999 & fucks up over 100 times each day, is an outlier and should not have been counted

[ouidamforeman]

The “Eight is the ultimate millennial” thing is my favorite because now every time I see shit on the internet about millennials I always think “That’s Eight.”

“That’s the Eighth Doctor.”

Apparently if you find a tagged Horseshoe crab and report it to Fish and Wildlife they’ll send you a certificate with info about your crab AND a pewter horseshoe crab pin! Keep your eyes peeled 👀

Good news!  Getting a good grade in crab is normal to want and possible to achieve!

[penny-anna]

the thing w Ian and Barbara is, there’s a bunch of other DW companions who had much more positive starts to their relationships with the Doctor but who very likely hold significant grudges due to the way things shook out.

whereas Ian and Barbara are like ‘yeah he straight up kidnapped us and it was a terrifying experience and we almost died multiple times as a result of his actions. but we moved past it & became quite good friends!!’ 

so they’d be like. completely positive about the whole experience bcos like ultimately they had a good time and it brought them closer together and they were able to go home. but then they’d just come out w the most Harrowing Shit. like oh yeah one time the Doctor tried to bludgeon a guy to death with a rock. another time he broke his own TARDIS so he could go exploring and we all almost died of radiation poisoning and that’s how we met the daleks!! & everyone else at the companion support group is like what the shit what the shit

[penny-anna]

#wait #are you two the reason #the doctor cares about humans #*shrugs* #maybe #i dunno lol

Ian: oh yeah he wouldn’t tell us his name so we just took to calling him Doctor and after a little while he started answering to it

Everyone else: wtf wtf wtf

[just-dinosaraus]

Ian: “We got home eventually, and Barbara and I got together in the end! It’s fine!” Bill: “I literally ended up being converted into a cyberman and then space dust. Like.”

So my family has a Gay Pirate Plate.

Stay with me.

We do not know how the hell the Gay Pirate Plate was first acquired. This being a point of contention is actually pretty plot-relevant; the saga of the Gay Pirate Plate began with my grandmother and her sister, who, for some ungodly reason, both BADLY wanted the Gay Pirate Plate and believed it to be rightfully theirs.

I should back up, firstly, to establish: The Gay Pirate Plate is the cheapest, tackiest, ugliest plate in existence.

It is in no way a collector’s item. It is physically impossible for it to complement anyone’s decor, because the colors in it are garish. It’s just a ceramic plate with a gay pirate painted on it, and the painting is, this cannot be emphasized enough, extremely bad.

(How do we know the pirate is gay if he’s just posing on a plate? Listen. Fully 100% to stereotype, but he is. He is gay. There’s an energy. That pirate is a flaming homosexual. That pirate has sex with men and does it frequently. That pirate is fucking gay, all right, he just is.)

Anyway. The point is that this is an extremely cheap and ugly plate with a poorly-executed painting of pirate on it who is like a nine on the Kinsey scale.

My grandmother and her sister fought a blood feud over this plate for their entire lives. It would be on the wall in my grandma’s house, and then her sister would visit, and then it would be gone. She’d visit her sister and the plate would be on the wall and her sister would pretend it had always been there. She would steal it back, hang it up, and, when her sister visited, pretend it had always been there. This continued for DECADES.

When the sister died, the Gay Pirate Plate lived triumphantly in my grandmother’s house. And then my grandmother died. And my aunt, who had lived with her and been her carer throughout her life, rightfully inherited their house.

We visit my aunt after the funeral and stay with her for a week or two.

Me, my sister, and our dad. Her brother.

The three of us look at each other. We don’t say anything. We studiously avoid making eye contact with the Gay Pirate Plate mounted proud and ugly on the wall. We notice one another studiously avoiding looking at it. We notice one another noticing. We say nothing. We come to a silent consensus. We pack up to leave. We get in the van. Our aunt comes out to say goodbye. I loudly announce I need to use the restroom before we leave. She obviously stays outside to continue talking to my dad.

I take down the Gay Pirate Plate, stuff it under my oversized sweatshirt, go outside, and get in the van. She happily waves goodbye as we drive off.

Two days later my dad gets a phone call that opens with hysterical laughter and “You FUCKING ASSHOLE did you seriously STEAL THE PLATE–”

Anyway. The gay pirate plate lives in my dad’s house currently.

But he’s trying to get me and my sister out to visit him. And plate mounts are cheap.

[mylordshesacactus]

The rules of Gay Pirate Plate are simple by the way.

The plate must be clearly and openly displayed in a place of great prominence whenever it is in your possession. When it is not in your possession, the display piece must remain in place. This is where you would put your gay pirate plate, IF YOU HAD ONE.

No active steps may be taken to prevent the theft of the Gay Pirate Plate. That goes against the spirit of the game, as does attempting to hide it.

The plate MUST be stolen and cannot be gifted or removed with permission. Should you witness attempted theft of the Gay Pirate Plate you are required to intervene and return it to its place.

Every time your sibling successfully absconds with the Gay Pirate Plate, you must respond with indignant fury, as if you have not also repeatedly and blatantly stolen the Gay Pirate Plate.

I love the music of Classic Doctor Who. Just- it doesn’t fit the circumstance at all! The Doctor is being kidnapped here! And the music is just the BBC music guys just doing their own thing. I love it with all of my hearts.
