I generally try to be cautious with Nazi comparisons but if you're more suspicious of a Magen David necklace than you are of a fucking SS Totenkopf tattoo, you are a Nazi and should be treated accordingly

“Raw milk is better for you as long as you boil it” so true bestie now imagine if we could like. Super boil it. To really get all the bacteria out. And if we could do that quickly and efficiently. Imagine that.

Ryan Coogler gracefully won multiple Oscars and then said to himself, "Feels like it's time to correctly adapt the single most underrated children's book series in history."

ON MY LIFE WE USED TO PRAYYYYY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS

mamawasatesttube

the thing about media literacy is that understanding why the author chose to specify that the curtains are blue is the same skill set as understanding that the way the author characterizes all black characters as angry or all chinese characters as meek and silent is racist. it is the same skill set as being able to identify when a news source is biased or when someone is feeding you propaganda. the ability to ask "why did this person choose to present this premise in this specific way?" is a critical skill in a world full of misinformation. why are the curtains blue? maybe it's a characterization detail. maybe it's extraneous worldbuilding. why is this character written as being right all the time? maybe you're intended to disagree with them. maybe it doesn't matter. maybe you should still ask why.

Corksniffing losers have to sully an awesome new space photo just to erroneously claim film is inherently superior.

I think this version is the original color processed version, which is still not as saturated or contrasty.

That's still an amazing result just from darkroom processing, but the deep blue version in the tweet definitely needed some help from Photoshop. And, personally, I think they overdid it.

The new photo was actually taken in darkness. It is a moonlit photo taken at extremely high gain (ISO 52,000). They did a long exposure to make it appear as if it were as bright as day. But without significant editing, that is going to make the colors less saturated and reduce the contrast.

The same thing would happen with film.

This is another version they did with a more accurate-to-eyeballs exposure.

Film is great.

Digital is great.

Space is great.

I love film.

But it was not a great medium for space.

Most astronauts are fighter pilots. And there are only a few who are genuine photographers. You can train a fighter pilot to competently use a camera, but becoming a good photographer during the days of film usually took years of practice.

During the Apollo days they would send them up there with the best camera available. Usually a 70mm Hasselblad medium format. But the astronauts proved that the only way to get amazing photos without being a photographer was mostly down to luck.

We see the best photos they took, but those only amount to a handful. And as you saw above, NASA often had to do a lot of darkroom magic to make them aesthetically pleasing.

If you look at the Apollo archives, you can find hundreds of photos like this.

I'm fond of this one.

There was no instant feedback. They didn't have any instincts for settings or focus or composition. Most of the time they were just collecting visual data.

But every once in a while the stars aligned and they took absolute bangers.

That flag one is amazingly composed. But it took them a few tries.

Digital cameras give you a better baseline of quality. They can focus for you. They can meter for you. And they have high ISO gain that film could never touch.

They are... fighter pilot friendly.

With digital, they can look at the back screen and see if they bungled the exposure.

If they take a photo like this...

They get instant feedback and can be like, "Houston, where is exposure compensation?"

There is an undeniable ineffable quality that film sometimes delivers. But the medium is far less important than the skill of the person taking the photo.

Don Pettit is my favorite astronaut photographer. A true artist.

He really makes you forget about whether film is better than digital. He makes one remember that the person taking the photo is the paramount variable.

There is a great interview from Smarter Every Day where Don talks about how he captures amazing photos from space.

Hi Tumblr! It’s been a minute, but I gotta tell you my DEBUT COOKBOOK Small-Batch Breads: 50 Recipes for Loaves, Buns, and Flatbreads Made with One Cup of Flour is now available for pre-order!

PRE-ORDER HERE

When I started The Practical Kitchen in 2019 I never saw myself writing a cookbook. It seemed like something that ~other people~ who were more organized or bigger dreamers got to do. But when you fell in love with my small-batch bread recipes and kept making them go viral and asking for more and more and more of them, I quickly found myself building a list of enough small-batch bread recipe ideas to fill a…well, a whole cookbook. And now I get to tell you that it’s available for pre-order!

Inside you’ll find FIFTY RECIPES across FIVE chapters:

🍞 Chapter 1: Little Loaves

🍞 Chapter 2: Buns and Rolls

🍞 Chapter 3: Twists, Sticks, and Braids

🍞 Chapter 4: Flatbreads, Crackers, and Pizza

🍞 Chapter 5: Biscuits, Pastries, and Quickbreads

Shooting the cover was so much fun. We wanted to highlight the variety of small-batch breads you'll find inside the book, so clockwise from top left, you'll see: pillowy cinnamon rolls, crisp rosemary olive oil crackers, crusty bread, buttery crescent rolls, soft sandwich bread, a perfect bagel, a single foot-long(-ish) baguette, the OG mini focaccia, a twisty chocolate babka, and a hard French dinner roll!

Every single small batch bread recipe has a gorgeous full-size photograph of the finished bake so you never have to wonder what it's “supposed” to look like, plus there are 100+ process shots throughout the book to guide you through each recipe with confidence, step-by-step!

The recipes are written with weight measurements by default because #TeamKitchenScale but there are cup/teaspoon measurements for every recipe too. Doing these conversions was one of the hardest parts of writing the book but I wanted to make sure literally everyone can make these small batch bread recipes so it was worth it to me to give both!
