i got a college degree and the thing i’m most proud of producing in the process is a full academic presentation about what makes a himbo

this is the only important thing i did in four years

per request. i also have a video of my fucking thesis presentation but this is more important

okay but

The first funny bitch was Cain, who straight up lied to God after killing his brother.

God: where’s Abel?

Cain: fuck if I know??? I’m not in charge of him

It is TRAGIC that you can’t read this in the original Hebrew.

God:  Where’s the Sheepkeeper?

Cain: Do I LOOK like a Brotherkeeper? 

God: hey where’s Abel???

Cain:

JAPANESE STYLE FEEL-GOOD CURRY 🍛

i grew up eating カレーライス (curry rice) and was always excited when my mom made it. i like to make big batches and share it with friends! it takes about 30-40 minutes to make.

i use torokeru (とろける) roux and follow the instructions on the box for the most part. but i like to switch up the ingredients based on what’s in season and what my intention is!

INGREDIENTS:

- roux (4 blocks)

- 1 potato, cut into bite-size chunks

- half an onion, cut into long strips

- 1 carrot, sliced

- 1 zucchini, sliced

- half an eggplant, cut into chunks

- half a bell pepper, any color, cut into strips

- half a large fuji apple, cut into chunks

- 3-5 garlic cloves, minced

- meat is optional; you can add small chunks of beef or chicken, or have chicken katsu on the side.

- egg is also optional. it’s nice to have a sunny side up egg sitting pretty on top, though

- fukujinzuke - a nice pickled topping that’s sweet, tart, and crunchy!

INSTRUCTIONS:

- prepare rice while you make the curry; you’ll need about 5 servings worth for a nice curry to rice ratio.

- put the potatoes, onions, and carrots into a pot. add a bit of oil and cook on medium/low until the onions are translucent. add meat if you’re using it.

- add the bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, garlic, and apples. these ones get mushy easily so it’s best to let the tougher veggies cook first! you can add salt, pepper, and ginger powder if you’d like. stir the vegetables around and let the onions brown.

- add about 1 cup of water and bring it to a boil. i like my curry thick and chunky, but you can add a bit more to alter the consistency. after it reaches a boil, reduce the heat and simmer it until the potatoes are soft. using a lid is up to you.

- once all the veggies are done, break up the roux and stir it in until it’s completely melted and mixed.

- it’s ready! scoop your rice into the bowl and then scoop your curry, drizzling it over one side.

- you can add your egg or fukujinzuke now. as a kid i put kewpie mayo on my curry as well.

feel free to use other ingredients; mushrooms, artichokes, shallots, seafood, squash, mango, asparagus… make it yours!

i hope you enjoy making, eating, and sharing your curry!

i’m losing my mind

bert was always my favorite muppet as a kid and TBH I stand by this as an adult. 

anyways its been like four days and I have yet to stop laughing even slightly less at ‘OH GROOVE WITH ME BABY’ (THUNK THUNK THUNK) so 

im starting to suspect bert and ernie sketches were just the basis of my sense of humor

did anyone see that video of the guy who was like “im really good at finding moles” and hes saying that hes gonna pull a mole right out of the ground and for a few seconds youre like ok whats the joke and then he just squats down to the grass and and jams his fist into the ground and pulls a mole up

i think about it so much

@ladyepicenter

how the fuck

T H E    M O L E    D I V I N E R

Of course there is an ancient Scottish art of finding moles in golf courses.

druids are real and they use their animal affinity for mole-grabbing

IT’S SO CUTE AND SO DISPLEASED WITH THE SITUATION

REACH INTO THE DIRT AND YOU WILL FIND A FRIEND AND A BOY

Summer Solstice/ Mead Moon Honey Cake

sorry this took me so long to post. I know the full moon and the solstice are already over, I just wanted to put this recipe out there because I made it for the first time and it was really good :) -picture by me-

CAKE: ~Ingredients~ 1 cup butter (softened) 1 cup honey (I used raw local honey) 1 ½ cups self-rising flour 3 eggs

1.) cream the butter and honey, then add the eggs. 2.) add the flour ½ cup at a time. 3.) pour into a greased 8 inch cake pan (I used a loaf pan) 4.) bake at 350 for about 45-50 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean.

FROSTING: ~Ingredients~ 1 cup powdered sugar 1 tbsp. melted butter 1 ½ tbsp. milk 1 teaspoon honey

1.) warm up milk slightly and mix in the honey until dissolved. 2.) mix in butter and then powdered sugar.

after the cake is cooked and cooled down, slice it up and pour the frosting over entire thing :)

justin mcelroy has said many powerful things but honestly no set of words in the english language conveys the same energy as “that’s a funny trick to play on god”

“you’re rearranging deck chairs on the titanic, my friend” is a very close second

“we can do whatever sins we want! there’s no god here to observe this” is very good too

“the man who sleeps with a machete is a fool every night but one” was also good

Okay look. Stephanie Meyer contributed four (4) cool things to the contemporary fantasy genre, which I shall now list here in the hopes of getting it out of my system. In descending order of importance:

1. Writing a story about a girl who wants something. Plot driven by a woman’s (non-vilified) desire. Truly dreadful execution but still a good idea, sort of a literary incarnation of the “he a little confused but he got the spirit” meme.

2. The fact that when Bella becomes a vampire she can still breathe but “there’s no relief tied to the action” which I remember verbatim because it fucking slapped. The idea of human physical sensations being partially defined by our mortality and the sensations still exist after you become undead but your experience of them is fundamentally different because you no longer need any of it? Extremely cool. The closest Meyer came to taking an interesting stance on vampires being dead.

3. Werewolves are immortal but they can literally stop whenever they want. That shit’s hilarious. Curse of immortality who.

4. The fact that vampires don’t sleep or get tired so their communally-raised baby doesn’t have a crib because she is always in someone’s arms. That was extremely cute and there’s a different, better book contained somewhere in that specific concept.

5. Depression being represented by like 6 blank chapters titled with months.

Sigil Basics… again!

So I left a lot of information out of my last post and I wanted to do an update that may be more helpful!

***Remember***

Everything can be changed or altered based on your personal needs or preferences! The things I used were a basic guide that gives only one example! Your sigil is yours and you can arrange it anyway you want!

Make a Chart

Begin by making a chart similar to this one above. You can arrange the letters in any way and even take away numbers if wanted or needed.

Get a Phrase

The phrase I am using is

Your phrase can be as long or short as you like. Just know that if you are following this method and have a long phrase then you will have a more complex sigil and a short phrase you will just have a simple sigil.

Take Out the Vowels

This is another one of those REALLY optional steps. If you take out the vowels then you have a less complicated sigil and if not then it’s just a little more complex. I do this because it makes things not as busy in the sigil itself.

Using the same example from before we are then left with…

Take Out Repeating Letters

This is another one of those optional steps, but again it just cuts down on the business or complexity of your sigil.

The phrase we’ve been using would then become…

Numbering Your Letters

So here you’re just going to match up the letters to the number they are assigned to in that chart we made earlier.

In our example…

Numbering Your Circle

Now you’re going to make a circle with numbers in it. The number order does not matter. You can do this in any order that you like. This is the one we are going to be using for our example.

Drawing Your Sigil

After you have all your information you get to draw out your sigil! Now this is where everything comes together.

Our number sequence is 416547923 so we are going to draw a line from 4 to 1 on our circle. Then drawing another line from 1 to 6. Then from 6 to 5. Then from 5 to 4. And continuing this until we have connected all the numbers together.

Finishing Touches

Now that you have your finished product you can begin to add your embellishments! You can add or take away anything that you like and make your sigil all yours!

You can add loops and swirls and anything else that you would like to the finished product!

Bonus Lessson

Charging Your Sigil

This is something that I’ll be elaborating on more in a later post that will be dedicated to this whole topic but I’m gonna share a favorite method of mine for charging up my sigils!

I prefer to do this when meditating but I have a few sigils that are all drawn out on the paper that I will be using that day or placing for the future or whatever their purpose is.

I will take the paper and hold it in my hands and focus on the intent that I wish the sigil to possess. If we were using the phrase above then we would be envisioning ourselves in a safe and protected place. We would be focusing on being safe and protected from whatever it is we need protection from.

After doing this for a bit I will know when it is ready and then I will kiss the paper and then I move along to the next one repeating the process.

That’s all I got!

There were a lot of questions out of my last post so I hope this one is a little more detailed and helps out a little more! If you still have any questions please feel free to ask me!

so, beltane is here! i want to wish you all witches happy beltane, i hope you’ll have fun today! but, as we know, no sabbat is complete without a ritual. worry not, i got your back! it’s something mine, so if you use it make sure to like and/or reblog this post, and tell me how it worked!

“ beltane has come

spring is at it’s peak

nature is blooming

and the skies are clear

may summer come

and bring the best out of us

may the sun shine brightly

upon the earth

and upon our hearts

may the universe bless us

with the best of luck

and help us get through

our dark days

happy beltane!

welcome summer!

welcome brighter days!

and blessed be!”

“i offer you this gift

as a sign of my gratitude

and respect

please, universe/fae

bring to us

a prosperous summer

and blessed be”

after finishing off, close the circle and thank the universe and the fae.

and that’s it! now you’re ready to spend a delightful beltane! make sure to eat loads of delicious food and dance a lot!

Wdtdgfhgvhg im screaming all of the “sins” were just minor nitpicks that don’t even matter

That’s just how regular middle schoolers are

That’s How Roommates Are

….. That setup makes sense???? I mean that’s obviously his laptop powering the 2 monitors so that’s not weird at all and everyone has their phone nearby?

How is this even a sin????

Remember when cinema sins actually did sins and flaws and inconsistencies

Yeah but whenever they do nitpicks like this, it usually means that they liked the movie. So maybe they just couldn’t find much to sin?

Mad Max told a story about sexual violence and survivorship without relying on rape scenes to impress upon the audience how *serious* things were.

instead of watching the abuse on screen, we hear about it through the interactions between the wives. they tell us what happened, and in that way they take control of their own narrative.

rather than being voyeurs witnessing the wives’ trauma played out onscreen, we were an audience listening to their story.

and that makes a world of difference.

THIS THIS THIS.

So instead of showcasing the specific treatment we were told of it, which is the contrary philosophy of most filmmaking (show, don’t tell)

or they made the decision to not sensationalize and fetishize the rape and brutalization of women. and in doing so spared the feelings of thousands of trauma survivors in their audience.

but whatever, film theory 101.

“Show don’t tell” is for FUCKING AMATEURS. 

This statement:

demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of the idea behind “show, don’t tell.” I would argue that Mad Max: Fury Road DOES show us how the Wives were treated by Immortan Joe. However, it chooses not to do so in the obvious way (which would be showing the abuse), but rather by showing us in other ways.

We’re shown the message the Wives leave behind: “We are not things,” from which we can infer that’s exactly how they’ve been treated for God knows how long.

We’re shown that they wear flimsy white fabric that leaves their bodies on display, unlike pretty much everybody else in the film.

We’re shown them using boltcutters to rid themselves of chastity belts, devices which pretty much exist solely to remove a woman’s ability to choose her sexual partners.

We’re shown rage from the Dag when, even though time is of the essence, she takes the time to run back and kick one of the discarded belts as hard as she can before running back to join the others at the War Rig.

We’re shown Angharad using her pregnant body to shield Max and Furiosa from Immortan Joe, because she knows beyond a shadow of a doubt he won’t shoot her or her unborn child because he still views her as his property.

We hear Furiosa’s “Remember me?” before she kills Joe, and there’s so much fury and anger in those two words that you know she was a Wife before she was an Imperator.

We ARE shown what happened to the Wives. The issue lies in thinking that the only way to show that they were abused is to show the abuse itself. And as MM:FR demonstrates, that isn’t the case.

In my writing workshops, I use Mad Max Fury Road as a brilliant example of so many things, including how to do “show, don’t tell” like a pro.

Letting the audience figure things out from what you provide gets them more deeply involved in the story of these characters, and doing so without unnecessarily triggering them shows you’re in control of the narrative and confident enough in yourself and the reader or other audience that you needn’t take easy or manipulative routes through the story.

there are a lot of bert and ernie sketches that are just unironically very funny

“Wh-I-Wha-E-ERNIE WHAT YOU’RE DOING YOU CAN’T DO!!??”

LOL

Same energy 😂

I cannot b r e a t h e

I don’t know why, but I think some Americans don’t realise how big the UK is….

American Customer: you’re English right? Do you know the bookshop between Wales and Bristol that has lots of books in?

Me in my head: yeah mate, I know that one. Classic. Love to pop down there on a cheeky break between work. What a wanker…

the continuous 48 states are is almost 39x the size of the isle of great britan

that’s your answer

For reference:

That’s JUST Texas.

When will the UK learn that they are puny little ants in which to be crushed???

where’s that post where the british person was like “oh yeah i only get to see my dad 2-3 times a year because he lives so far away :/” and a person asked “oh no how far away is he?” and the british person said “75 minutes”

op it literally takes about 20 minutes to get to wales from bristol, op that’s a reasonable question do you understand geography

leave europe alone you fucking colonizers

It takes my mom an hour to drive to work. Sometimes more. Europeans are cowards.

“Leave Europe alone you fucking colonizers” Should we tell them?

10 Step Korean Skin Care Routine

Okay, you’ve heard all about it from your friends, social media and your local beauty store… but just what is the 10 step Korean skincare routine?

Keep reading

As you know not all of these steps belong just to the Korean skincare routine so it’s useful to know this anyway. Btw I’m just explaining the main steps.

remember being little and thinking dandelions were fun or a pretty color or something and every adult in an 80 mile radius wouldn’t let you say that without screaming ITS A WEED

Why ARE they considered a weed? They’re a good flower? Who decided they were bad? =(

lawn culture made the decision to consider dandelions weeds

that reminds me, I need to grow some in pots this year, gotta remember to transplant them over, or snag some seeds.
