I forgot to eat dinner so I'm having 11 pm corn on the cob. This counts as a meal

... It's possible that I really need to do some grocery shopping

[hellenhighwater]

Okay for those of you living in pitiful ignorance, take a raw ear of corn with the husk on and cut all the way around the base (as pictured: above the point where the husk meets the cob, so that the entire husk is severed but still wrapped around the corn. Do not cut through the cob.) Then, with the husk still on, microwave it for 5-7 minutes. It'll basically steam it inside the husk. Remove from microwave --it will be hot, so use a mitt or a towel--and firmly pull the top of the husk/silk, which should come off easily in one piece, unsheathing a flawless corn on the cob. If it doesn't, you probably need to cut a little higher around the base, so all the leaves are severed. No picking off silk!

For the nonbelievers (and for me, a second corn)

Finding out AI companies are chewing through - literally, they’re pulping and burning them as they go - millions of books often including 1/1s and old texts that cannot be reprinted

Meanwhile there’s always some dipshit telling me AI is the future and we’ve got to just let companies erase human history and literature so they can train their abomination machines to pretend to think like people because a judge said it’s fine

I must sleep. Sleep is the mind-healer. Sleep is the big-life that brings total ability to fucking do anything. I will face my bed. I will permit the blankie to pass over me and snores to pass through me. And when sleep has gone past I will turn the outer eye to greet the new morning. When the sleep has gone there will be everything. Energy and will to live will remain.

"rickrolling is mean" rickrolling is the gentle, kind, prosocial descendant of what we used to do on the internet, which was putting a redirect to goatse in every possible misspelling of a url

[astercontrol]

Rickrolling is deceptive, but it's among the most harmless forms of deception available

in other words, it may tell a lie, but it will never tell a lie and hurt you

Boromir isekai.

By which I mean, after dying as he did in canon, Boromir gets isekai'd to another fantasy world. Preferably one of those standard anime style ones where there are inexplicable level up systems and otaku tropes. He's profoundly confused but he's trying to go with it.

I've probably posted about this before but it still gets me that Ripley (my parrot) has a special nickname for my spouse, Tev. Like he knows and uses the names of everyone in his flock (me, Tev, Steve, and Cheese. also a couple of our friends and my mom's dog) but because Tev calls him "Ripley buddy," a couple years ago Ripley started calling him "Tev buddy" instead of just Tev. He doesn't call anybody else buddy. He knows that 'buddy' is a special suffix for him and Tev to use with each other's names because they love each other. Doesn't that just melt your fucking heart

[draconym]

They love each other

#don't wild parrots have special calls for family members too#they know what love is! they know what nicknames are! they know when affection is being communicated!#I'm gonna throw up!#human/non-human bonds make me feel some kinda way. I spent half an hour playing(!!!) with a young sea lion at the zoo(!!!)#bc she was trying to get the adults to play and do spins in the water with her and they weren't having it. i was watching and saw her spin#so i spun around outside the glass just because#and she noticed! and immediately swam over to the glass right in front of me and rotated! so i spun around too! and she did it again!#so i did it again! and then she dove down to the bottom which i obvs couldn't do but i crouched down and then she went shooting up to breach#so i jumped up as high as i could too#and then she did a backflip underwater and looked at me#and while i was trying to figure out how to mirror that she clearly thought i wasn't sure what she did so she did another one#and then waited for me#i think i ended up getting on the ground and doing a back roll?? bc it was the closest thing#and we just? kept mirroring each other?#at one point she was waiting for me to do something#like swam at the glass to indicate me and then backed up#so i crouched and jumped again#and she did her dive and splash thing again#it was great#sea lions 🤝🏽 dogs#'here human let's play copying games!'#anyway. human/non-human interactions are precious and wonderful and we are so so lucky to live on a planet where love transcends species @mankillercalledbunny

in my little pony universe youd go to a job interview and theyd be like so how does your cutiemark reflect your dedication to this position. And every time youd have to spew some bullshit about how your cutiemark of two tennis rackets actually means youre a team player and good at multitasking and view the market like a playing field. or whatever. and you wouldnt even get the job

[fvckw4d]

Thanks to Equestria v Sugar Sprinkle, cutie mark interview questions are considered hiring discrimination, so if anypony asks you any cutiemark related questions or even alludes to any questions about your cutiemark such as "In your own words, describe your life purpose" you can and should refuse to answer. Know your rights, ponies.

hi can we talk about the candle i want to talk about the candle.

the fact that it is wrapped carefully so it does not shatter. the fact that it is decorated with a guardian angel. the fact that it is lit with someone else's match, with hermes' match. the fact that the fates blow it out in any way the wind blows. the fact that eurydice's candle is out of her hands for most of the show. the fact that when she dies, hermes is the one who blows it out.

that candle is her life, and it is in the hands of the fates and the gods of whether it stays lit or not.

I think my favourite part of the hadestown proshoot is when Eurydice says, "Is he always like this?" and Hermes, who has seen this story a thousand thousand times, who has tried again and again to warn Orpheus not to come on too strong, says with Extreme Exhaustion in his voice, "Yes."
