funniest side effect of my menstrual cycle: The Urge To Yap About Serious Topics. The Urge to Research. The Urge To Analyse. The Urge To Over-explain My Perspective
I cannot stress enough that this meme is entirely literal. there's no reference or subtext you don't know. these are simply the objectively most popular works of art from each denomination.
After last nights Khemjira episode and Khem taking off Peem's pants I figured we should have a conversation about the type of pants he was wearing.
I know you might not have noticed them in the below photo but Peem wears this type of tied pants a lot in the show. Like this...
Or this..
Or this...
And let me tell you, I don't blame him for wearing this type of pants all the freaking time because they are soooo comfy, and I'm sure Khem appreciated the easy access.
So for anyone who hasn't seen this kind of pants before I made a video of what they look like when you aren't wearing them and how you put them on.
Feel free to use this information however you want, like for writing fanfics or just for playing out the PeemKhem NC scene in your mind.
Since three people's asked what the pants are called, I figured I'd respond here because one thing I didn't mention in the original post is that I've been working on making my own pants for the last two years and I wanted to share my thoughts to anyone who wanted to buy some or make some for themselves.
Short answer:
I don't think there's an official English name for them but looking up "wrap pants" will get you both patterns and places that sell them.
If anyone's looking for the Thai name @visualtaehyun mentioned that they're called "กางเกง 4 สาย", which apparently means "4-string pants".
If you want the simple kind Peem and I have, Etsy or similar online stores might be a good place, just make sure to check where the store is located so you avoid any unexpected import fees.
The pants are very simple to sew so if you have access to a sewing machine and some suitable fabrics and have the time, I'd highly recommend doing that.
I have a lot of thoughts around the process and how to do things, so I'll expand on that below the cut.
Long answer:
I got mine in Chiang Mai and you could buy versions of these flowey pants all over the place in Chiang Mai, but surprisingly we only ever saw one place with these simple single color versions which are honestly my favorite. I can't remember off the top of my head where the store was but if anyone's interested I could probably find out.
In terms of making them yourselves they are very easy because they only consist of two squares of fabric with the crotch area cut out and the two strings and you can find many patterns online with measurements based of clothing size.
Below image is a simplified version of my own pattern.
You basically cute out two identical pieces of fabric, where each piece becomes a pant leg. You then place them on top of each other with the out- side facing each other and then sew them together at the orange. Then you just have to make the strings and sew the sides to make the edges nice.
Some tips for anyone wanting to sew some yourself:
Pick a good fabric.
Rayon/viscose seems to work best but I saw someone mention linen as well which I think at least some of Peem's are made of.
You want a fabric that isn't too heavy or too light, not too stiff or too flexible, which has been my main problem and the reason for why I haven't made a pair myself yet:
it's really hard to find in-person stores with just the right rayon in just the right color.
I've made several pairs of shorts so far but mostly from polyester or cotton. I particularly wouldn't recommend the polyester but it is doable with the right fabric.
Sew in the wedge at the hip.
This is something I've noticed most patterns online don't include but I really like the look of it. The wedges in question are the two purple wedges at the top of the pants which are taken in. You basically fold the edges of each wedge so the lines touch each other and sew the fabric together.
Since most people's waist is smaller than their hip, these wedges means the width of the pants at the top is shorter than further down, which means that the pants are pulled less towards to middle at the top and instead follow a less curved line.
I tried to illustrate this with the picture below, so I hope it made sense.
You can test out the effect of making these wedges by pinning in the wedges before you finish sewing the top of the pants. Just attach the strings and create the wedges with pins or something similar and try the pants on.
The direction of the wedges are important so the resulting seams end up horizontal.
Hope this was helpful and feel free to ask any questions!

the immediate default panic that HE'S causing Chaeha to be in danger or miserable is so layered and engaging to me. this is a man who never really got over the fact that he was in the house when his father died and couldn't do anything to save him, so he's internalised that and refused to get close to anyone or trust anyone for his entire life up to this point outside of a very select few people.
even when they find out his mentor might be involved he's like "yeah i'm prepared for that eventuality, anyway-"
but it's clear that part of that detachment is also an irrational fear that his very PRESENCE is dangerous to those around him - probably not helped by the death of one of his only other friends. he's deeply anxious and self-hating which i recognise because i have a similar default panic position of "my presence alone caused this bad thing to happen" that rears its head in times of trouble. he even admits to chaeha that he's anxious which is something i don't think we've seen him do since the third episode inside his own internal monologue.
he's desperate for connection with the one person who might understand but he's also terrified of getting too close and losing him. he feels like a jinx, which is only made manifest once chaeha finds out who he is and walks away, and then (judging by the teaser) gets put into danger AGAIN.
Why is it that every time I google something like "Are olives poisonous to cats" the top results are always like "Fun fact: Cats are carnivores! This means that they eat meat. There is no reason to include olives in a cat's diet. You should feed your cat cat food, which is dry or wet food especially designed for cats. You can purchase this at a store." like is there a single person alive on the planet who's googled "Are blueberry muffins safe for cats" because they're planning on switching their cat to a muffin-only diet??? No, I'm asking because the little bastard somehow popped open the packet while I was putting away the groceries and dragged one under the couch before I could react and now I need to know if I should call the after-hours vet. "Cats should not eat spaghetti." NO SHIT, SHERLOCK!!!! "Try to keep human food away from cats." i live in a studio apartment with a completely silent and permanently hungry apex predator who has the intelligence of a toddler and the desperate Machiavellian cunning of a creature who spent his formative months on the streets. He can already open doors and he is this 👌 close to learning how to open the microwave. He is stronger than me and covered in knives. So im gonna do my best but for the moment i just need you to tell me whether this yoghurt is going to kill my son y/n
I've been using the pet poison hotline's poison list cause it has a search function. It also tells you whether something is mildly, moderately, or severely toxic which can be very handy! It doesn't contain like everything but it might be a good place to start, it also includes plants for fellow houseplant lovers <3

The key to writing good fanfiction is to harbor a deeply humiliating desire, and the trick there is that even pretty basic and societally-accepted desires like “being held” and “being wanted” CAN and WILL be humiliating if they’re intense enough. Become so estranged from human connection that the idea of someone playing with your hair fills you with yearning so deep you feel like you’re going to throw up and you will write some banger fanfiction. It might have some other consequences too but idrk about that.
For a start, you can only buy these as a three-flavor set on the Bush's Baked Beans website, but to be fair to them it was pretty reasonably priced even for three normal-sized baked bean cans, which is what I thought I was getting. Then they showed up in like, a goddamn GIFT BOX and they're MASSIVE.
They also come with a baked bean can koozie (pictured left) and a branded can opener (pictured right).
So far I've only sampled the Apple Pie flavor.
I had thought -- well, hoped -- that it would be primarily cinnamon flavor, which doesn't actually go badly with the tomato-molasses sauce that canned baked beans normally have. This hope was a mistake.
Eating these beans is like mainlining some kind of legume-based distilled concept of Christmas. My face filled with a powerful dose of cinnamon, as though my sinuses were suddenly potpourri bowls. For a few minutes, as I chewed and swallowed, I lived in a world suffused by pure artificial cinnamon.
Normally when I make baked beans from a can (which is not often anymore, since I have a pressure cooker and like five pounds of dry pinto beans) I drain off some of the sauce and add mustard and barbecue sauce to remix it a little.
After sampling some of the Pure Christmas Bean (tm) I took the second half of the tin I'd reserved, drained it, and added plain yellow mustard; that did actually take the edge off and make them slightly more edible. And it's not that they even tasted bad -- they just tasted overwhelming.
Stay tuned for Dill Pickle. I'm saving Rocket Pop for last.
