I saw some weird ass conspiracy video thing today of like 'we were never meant to have access to yeast, that was cultivated in a lab and it harms us' bullshit and I was like well first off there's no such thing as 'meant to' and second of all um? the long history of acquiring yeast from beer foam stretching so far back ??????

[moniquill]

....you can acquire yeast FROM THE AIR.

If you want to make sourdough started from scratch, the process is 'mix water, flour, and maybe sugar if you've got it, then WHIP IN AS MUCH AIR AS YOU CAN' and let it sit. And this works. Because there's yeast there. In the air.

[turtlesandfrogs]

Not only is there yeast in the air, it's on a bunch of fruits, too. Ever rubbed a blueberry, plum, or grape, and it was slightly darker underneath? That thin film is wild yeasts. There is also yeasts that live on human skin (and not just pathogenic ones!). We are never without yeasts.

You do not have access to yeast; yeast has access to you.

schrodinger's chekhov's gun. a detail in a story that looks like it should have some big payoff but it's too early to tell if that's relevant or if the author just has a passion for lovingly describing guns.

[fallowsthorn]

schrodinger's chekov's occam's razor: you find an inconsistent or inaccurate detail in a work that would be brilliant if it was foreshadowing a plot twist later on, but it's too early to tell whether the author expects you to be smart, and the simplest explanation is that they fucked up

sorry to have to tell you this but if a stranger comes to your inbox or slides in your DMs asking you for your money with some sob story, no matter how tragic and convincing the story is, they are a scammer — especially if the story is obviously copied and pasted, formatted in the exact same way as the other 100 bots in your inbox

[fossils-of-flowers-deactivated2]

Wait, really? I was told the people who vetted these campaigns were legit.

[questions-about-blorbos]

This post explains it well, but to put it simply, you cannot trust strangers on the internet. Just because someone says something is legit doesn’t mean it actually is. Anybody can say anything online. Just because you see something someone claims is “evidence they are legit” doesn’t mean it’s not fake either. The number 1 rule of internet safety, never trust strangers, especially those in your inbox / DMs asking you for your money. Always assume they are all scams for your own safety

bi slut pigeon

[antigoneprogone]

A gay pigeon story: my grandfather kept pigeons, and though he maybe didn't know the proper vernacular, he was always an ally to the gay rights movement. When his nephew's boyfriend died of AIDS in the '80s, my grandfather was the only one at the family reunion to actually console him and talk with him about it. Not even his own father gave him the dignity of acknowledging his grief.

The reason I want to make it so clear that he was a friend to the community is because it makes this story funny instead of mean. He kept meticulous records of his pigeons, noting where each one was and who they were with and whose chicks were whose. It was not always the case that the chicks in a certain nestbox were the offspring of the parents in there. Sometimes, a mother hen would push a chick out because it was overburdened, or maybe a cock would push a chick out because wanted it dead (pigeons, like humans, can be monstrous assholes for seemingly no reason).

It is for this reason that it is very advantageous to have something rare like a gay couple in the loft. Pigeons are unique in that they make "milk" for their chicks, and cocks can do this as well as hens. So, because a gay couple can feed their young but never actually bear young, they are often the recipient of orphaned chicks.

All of that is to say this - when my grandfather passed away, my mom took over the pigeon business, as she had been helping him for years. And looking through his records, it was all very standard, very plain, well-documented minutiae about the birds and their pedigrees, save for one spot that looked something like this:

BOX 15

RED CHECK HEN

YELLOW COCK

BOX 16

BLUE SLATE HEN

DUNN BAR COCK

BOX 17

RED GIMPEL COCK

BLUE CHECK COCK

(QUEERS - WOW!)

In the wake of the post you made about welcoming reformed republicans into the fold, I just have to say thank you. I remember a year or two ago vehemently disagreeing with some of the fandom/AO3 related things you posted because I had absorbed and internalized all of the nonsense Tumblr discourse that's just purity culture dunked in "woke sauce." But I stuck it out and kept following you because even if I disagreed with you on certain things, I respected your commitment to being unapologetically Jewish on a website steadily becoming more and more hostile to us. And because of that I've really started to unpack those harmful beliefs and I'm a much happier and healthier person because of it. You are truly a voice of clarity and perspective on so many issues that this website desperately needs.

Thank you for your kind words. I'm really glad that my presence and words helped you to start the work, and I'm proud of you for continuing it. :) Keep it up!
