PSA Regarding Hateful Anons
Tumblr recently made it a requirement for you to be logged in to send asks anonymously. If you receive a hateful ask, donât publish it - report it to Tumblr. It can be traced back to the user that sent it and with enough reports that personâs account will be suspended.
Share to raise awareness but also to make the clowns who think this behaviour is acceptable think twice before acting brave behind the guise of invisibility.

My perfect mashed potatoes
The secret is in the water; literally, itâs IN the water.
See, when you boil potatoes, a lot of special starches and sugars and stuff leeches out into the water. When you drain the water before mashing them, you throw away a lot of good stuff, which is a big part of what makes mashed potatoes âdryâ and bland, even when you add large amounts of cream and butter and things.
So donât throw out any water.
Hereâs how you do that:
First, cut your potatoes into smaller cubes than you probably do. (Iâve left the skins on for flavor and also, thatâs where a lot of a potatoâs nutrients are, like protien and iron and vitamins B and C, just to name a few)
The reason for cutting them smaller (besides avoiding giant peices of skin) is so that there is less space in the pot between each peice for water to fill, so you use less water to cook them. Thatâs important because you wonât be draining any water, so you canât afford to have too much water! For the same reason, just barely cover them with water when they go on the stove.
But! Before you do that, put the pot on the stove with some butter, garlic, and seasonings; let the butter start to sizxle just a little then put most of a single layer of potatoes in the pan and let the brown and sear. Turn them, brown them on all sides, get âem fairly dark (I forgot to get a pic here because I was worried Iâd burn the butter).
Ready? now throw the rest of the potatoes in right on top, and add your water, give them a stir. This way, youâre boiling in some of that lovely fried potato/french fry flavor.
Okay, so, as they cook, you may need to add a little water, not too much! ideally the very highest piece of potato will be poking just above the surface. Now, when your potatoes are really really soft, mash them directly into the water. Just pull them off the stove, leave all the water in, and start mashing. Trust me. At first youâll think thereâs too much water. If you get them mashed and they ARE a little too liquidy, just put âem back on the stove. Youâll have to stir often or constantly, but they will steam off additional water without losing any good stuff.
Now add some salt, and taste. Right?! And you havenât even put in any cream or cheese or anything yet.
Speaking of which, you can use like, a third of the amount of butter or cream or anything, and they will still taste better than usual. So they taste better AND they are higher in nutrients AND lower in fats and salts! Thatâs a lot of win â enjoy your potatoes!
Fuck Columbus! Indigenous Rights! And happy Thanksgiving!
lol this got on the tumblr radar again, got like another thousand notes in the last little while... all the stuff I write and make, all the time I invested getting out of my 20+ year restaurant career, and this is what tumblr likes from me lmao

Hey, do yâall remember how Tencent said they were developing faceID AI to identify people in riots, and then they suddenly created an AI art generator to turn your selfies into anime?
Do yâall remember that time that someone discovered facial recognition cameras couldn't see through Juggalo makeup, then Facebook had a fun âsee what you'd look like with Juggalo makeupâ thing, and then facial recognition cameras could suddenly see through Juggalo makeup?
Do yâall remember how, on Twitter, Elon started a tirade against artists who ask for credit when their art is reposted, and he suddenly he created one of the first big art AI programs?
Do yâall remember how AI destroyed the field of translation, despite the inferiority of the machine translations, because people didnât care about the quality of the translations? They just wanted it done for free?
Do yâall know how companies will see a lot of money going into a New Tech Thing (like, say, AI art apps) and will jump to try and implement that New Tech Thing into their tech? For example, how it felt like every big company and celebrity had an NFT to sell?
Just wondering.
any australians in the crowd tonight, the national libraryâs fabulous online resource trove is losing funding next year and if nothing happens to change that it will likely cease to exist. trove is not only a valuable resource for historians like me, it is a national cultural archive that is of great importance to australian society today. it is also completely accessible and free of charge to anyone with the internet; how fucking rare is that! we canât lose it. i canât even imagine the consequences.
if youâre as emotional about this as i am, or even if youâre not but love pestering people in power for any reason whatsoever, please contact your local mp and ask them to save trove and commit to funding this invaluable resource beyond july 2023. you can find your local member here. please also contact susan templeman mp, the special envoy for the arts, and tony burke mp, the arts minister.
non-australians, i would really appreciate a reblog. funding needs to be secured for trove and it needs to happen now.

No you guys this post helped me find my cat. He was missing for almost a month and Iâve had him for over 12 years. After seeing this I put his favorite blanket he always slept on outside hoping he would smell mine or his scent and he was back the next fucking day asleep on it.
When my cat got out, we called and called for him, and then, later that night, I remembered similar advice to this, and so put his little scratching pad, which he adores, on the front porch. Not even half an hour later, I heard a thump, opened the door, and there was his big butt, meowing at me.
Important and vital
I donât care that I reblogged this today Iâm reblogging it again
awwwww babies ;_; i hope everyoneâs pets come home safe.
