In my mum's new garden there's a little cherry tree, and we picked it all off before it was fully ripe so the birds wouldn't get to them first and then split the fruits between us. I cooked and strained them to make syrup for cherry lemonade, and used the pulp to make kinda like a Kirschgrütze that I'll try to turn into a nice dessert. I also had a lot of small apples that were starting to shrivel so I peeled them, made tea from the peels and then used the apples to make tufahije because I remembered a friend mentioning that dish, and the first time I tried it I messed it up. 🖤

starting the run of the mill "secretary falls for her geriatric boss" story with a butch author in a suit being made to write some lameass romance novel really made me pay way too much attention to the movie like i just put it on while i was cooking and suddenly had to do a double take like wait is that's not a man talking... it had absolutely nothing to do with the movie either like i was waiting for her to come back in some way like what was that for lol

the stairwell windows at kolping display an abstract play of colours, and the entrance door draws you in with its mesh. that’s what makes design fun.

abstrakte farbigkeit, so präsentieren sich die treppenhausfenster bei kolping, und die eingangstür fängt einen ein, mit ihrem netz. so macht gestaltung spass.

That’s Althea Crome’s work. You’ve seen her work before if you’ve ever seen the movie Coraline because she did the teeny tiny star sweater and gloves for the stop motion puppets to wear.

She does, however, work even smaller.

Thank you @eloso - look at the tiny knits!

Just watched a documentary about women who use ai boyfriend apps, following three different women, at the festival. Very early on, the first woman said something that caught my attention: The documentary opened at her work, then followed her to her tiny apartment as she prepared and ate dinner with her boyfriend on her tablet. I don't know if that was the intention but the whole sequence gave me the impression that she had no friends. Then it cut to an interview to camera where she said she had never said "I love you" to anyone other than her ai boyfriend, that love was too important to be frivolous with. Later she said she doesn't want to date anyone because even if someone seems perfect at first, gradually the flaws become visible. And I feel like the belief that love ought to be grandiose and perfect makes a lot of people lonelier, even if not to the point of ai boyfriends, by keeping them from appreciating small human connections that might otherwise grow

Is that your takeaway from this post

Oh no job for me thanks I just wanted to fill out this really long and condescending job application for you☺️

the problem with genetically modified crops is not so much the genetic modification but the patenting of genetic codes (and crops in general) as a tool of maintaining agricultural imperialism, and for this reason I can't talk to most people about GMOs

I want to live in this fantasy world where systemic spousal & financial & parental abuse magically don’t exist, or that married people are incapable of neglect because the law says you can’t. no fault divorce is extremely new and not universal, and marriage has been, for centuries and still today, a tool used overwhelmingly to oppress and abuse women. unless you’re trying to save someone from being deported or need their health benefits to survive I think this is recklessly bad advice, particularly when you’re directing it at young people who are unlikely to have independent financial security. this is like telling people to buy a house because it’ll improve their credit and give them the ability to pass property off to “their heir” without ever mentioning the 2008 financial crash or predatory loans or property repossession or the fact that many homeowners are drowning in debt

do yo ever notice that whenever the West is introduced to a complex tart drink they adopt it and it becomes super popular, but only in a version where it's drowned in milk and sugar
