“someone else could do it better than me” not relevant babe, no one else is gonna do it. You can’t do a mediocre job if you’re the only one doing it

For some reason, it never occurred to me that Project Gutenberg would have public domain old cookbooks. This is BRILLIANT. There’s a 1953 cranberry recipe pamphlet and a suffrage cookbook from 1915 and a translation of Apicus’s guide to food in Imperial Rome and a whole bunch of other fascinating old cookbooks, many pre-1800. Treasure trove!

[optimysticals]

I love you for sharing this!!!

[ferrific]

For more old cookbooks, Michigan State University has 76 of their historical cookbooks scanned and searchable at Feeding America: The Historic American Cookbook Project.

[hsavinien]

For even older recipes, check out Gode Cookery.  They list medieval and Renaissance cooking instructions and translate the recipes for you into measurable amounts and all.

I have have have to mention Miss Leslie. I learned so much about cooking from that book, even if a lot of it is outdated.

Also, Forme of Cury is great fun, if you can muddle through the Middle English (Gode Cookery has translations and adaptions of some of the recipes from this).

I’ve been searching the whole internet

There is NOT a “do it for him” meme of uncle Iroh. I knew this place was a pit of disappointment but never have I felt it this keenly. Must I do everything myself? Is happiness a self made endeavor? Very well then.

[vaticanomenon]

I’ll provide my own happiness and be the person uncle Iroh would like me to be.

Like. The quote “I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend” is such an integral quote/concept to LOTR that I just cannot for the life of me comprehend how people come away from LOTR inspired to write the grimdark i-love-war-and-suffering stories that populate fantasy

[elflady]

literally JRR TOLD us that if more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. But did we listen? No of course not! More angsting about redeeming our rightful throne by slaughtering hundreds!!!

Tidying Up the Response to Marie Kondo

I tend to favor a branching structure of teaching. Conversations act a bit like building blocks: seemingly heading in new directions, but still connected to what came before it. Last week my students were discussing inspiration porn, which led to the influence of viral content more broadly, which led to memes, which led to the latest memes, which landed us in a conversation about Marie Kondo.

“Does it spark joy?” came a voice in the back, just a hint of derision in the tone. I’m not even sure anyone else caught it, focused as they were (or at least, pretending to be focused) on the lecture I was giving. Looking back, I can see that it was a missed opportunity. I mean sure, I mentioned the recent, racist backlash against Kondo, but it didn’t become the focal point of the conversation in the way that it perhaps should have. I had too much else to say about arguments and ideology’s connection to humor, the persuasively fast-paced world of our online spaces, and the importance of allowing minority groups to speak for themselves. This semester’s class is a class on disability, not racism. I moved on, despite the fact that intersectionality is a Thing That Exists and I now regret that choice.

Let me remedy that here.

There are a lot of times I feel like just…flipping the vegan script.

It’s not ‘polyester’ it’s plastic

It’s not ‘vegan leather’ it’s plastic

Its not ‘faux fur’ it’s plastic

Plastic is a pollutant and causes far more damage to the environment both now and in the future than leather or wool.

Please stop telling me that the Plastic Lyfe is the only life, it is not. My leather shoes will last a decade where pleather is lucky to last 12 months. Leather (and wool) decompose and are renewable. Plastic is neither of those.

THANK YOUUUUUUU~

[kinka-juice]

A single wash cycle of plastic-based fiber (polyester, poly fleece, faux fur) may release 700,000 pieces of microplastic into our waters. Nasty stuff.

Wool is the most environmentally friendly fabric despite being an animal product.

[noisypitta]

Using wool isnt even harming sheep 

[chris-hansen-the-pedoslayer-blog]

Sheep need to be sheered or else it will cause serious problems. It’s a mutual relationship, we help sheep get rid of the pesky wool and it gives us a very useful material.
