Want some haggis with that ...?

In case you're wondering ... I did, indeed, try the national dish of Scotland: haggis. It was a wee try, but a try, nonetheless.

And, no, it's not my new favorite dish.

Haggis comes in different forms. Essentially, it's the liver, heart, and lungs of a sheep (or other animal), minced and mixed with beef or mutton suet and oatmeal and seasoned with onion, cayenne pepper, and other spices.

And in case that's not unappetizing enough for you, the mixture is packed into a sheep's stomach and boiled.

We didn't go to a single eatery - roadside cafes included - where a person couldn't get bite of haggis.

In my opinion, the other national Scottish delicacy - Scotch whisky - is much easier to swallow.

Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup with Smoked Beef

Taiwanese Beef The national dish of Taiwan earns its reputation as one of the best Asian soup dishes in the world, and this version using smoked short ribs or brisket is one of our favorites. It also is a favorite way to use up leftover smoked brisket.

Protein: Origin: Taiwan, Asian Method: Smoker, Stovetop What are Taiwanese Beef Noodles? Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup is the national dish Taiwan and the island’s most famous culinary dish.  As it turns out that trying to track down “the best traditional method” for preparing the dish is not an easy task.  When I asked my friends who reside in Taiwan this very question I got a laugh in…

national dish

Look what came today! This was the second book I ordered last week, along with The Book of Sherry Wines, bringing my total book purchases since downsizing in 2017 to a resounding three (the third, well, first one was The Wines of Northern Spain by my friend (and Master of Wine) Sarah Jane Evans. National Dish is by Anya von Bremzen and looks like it’s going to be delightful. I had a teeny-tiny…

i know we all go feral over coney island but GENUINELY. some lightening bolt of creativity shot down from the skies and joined these powerhouse artists together so that they could craft a perfect melody and prose that makes my bones ache and my heart break and my eyes well up and my soul leave my body. i think about the second verse at least once a day. it is a revelation every single time that i listen to them harmonise "a universe away". i understand something deep within myself in the closing chorus when i hear them sing "the sight that flashed before me was your face/when the sun goes down". they truly captured something poignant and fundamental and human and every single piece of praise that people give it is more than well deserved

#it came on while i was doing this dishes and i am Unwell #good lord. how did she do that. how dare it be possible for people to make art that makes me feel this way #dee speaks #taylor swift #the national #coney island #coney island ft. the national #evermore

Reminder to all Europeans: Your "national" traditions were probably invented in the 1800s

#that doesn't make them fake traditions! #but please be aware that national identities were pretty much all constructed in the 1800s #your 'national costume' was a regional variant of contemporary fashion that nationalists decided should represent 'the nation' #your 'national dish' was a regional dish with no set recipe and no connection to the concept of the nation-state

not so live reaction to ga-ming gameplay video leaks

GOD!!!!!!!!!! i swear i dont think they've made a 4* with so much love and thought since like. probably yun jin. i think most ppl are stunned but like MAN. his idles???? the 10 sec of fully animated lion dance? it changes color and instantly reminds me of hong kong neon lights (his burst too tbh)?? THE BACKGROUND DRUMS IN HIS IDLE???? you can see in his normal attack sequence a very short plum blossom pole pops up and he steps on it, and like AAA idk. his animations. :') they really put so much effort into him I wouldn't be surprised if we got an entire yun jin opera animation w him too.

have more to say about how people weren't super happy about the removal of the white elements in his design, from the concept art, but i think the more i look at his design—he has a real/modern style name, is youthful, has neon effects, lively animation, everything matches up to create a very young adult character, a lot more modern than some of the liyue designs, it's nice. it's a cohesive design that actually hints at what his personality is like and what he does and that's a success i think.

there was a bilibili comment wayyy early on (before this leak flood), reacting to the disappointment about his leaked final design, basically saying, "lion dance is still a job, he probably wouldn't wear his uniform all the time even when off duty, and that's why his design seems to have less lion dance elements and looks more casual" etc. looking at ga-ming now that everything's released via leaks, this was def what they were going for. like you can tell that he's a vanguard, that's his full time job, which translates into the primarily black design, but you can also clearly tell he's a lion dancer as a side hustle. idk it's really nice :') i dont have much else to say, besides i think they probably nailed his design as best they could

#now if mihoyo could stop nationalpridemaxxing and put as much thought into other nations 4* as him. maybe theyd be a better game overall #but this is a win regardless #i did not intend to type this much but it just Happened. #last couple comments. he is so canto it's CRAZY. apparently his cn intro has a couple freq used canto phrases that i didn't pick up on #specifically. mighty mythical beasts in cn is 威水舞兽 and the first 2 is v common canto phrasing. and his last intro line talking about #why not enjoy a bit more tea. is somehow a pun or internet meme? unsure about this one but someone commented on it and i was like huh #anyways. those two + his special dish + everything else idk. im going crazy. congrats to all southern chinese people especially diaspora #genshin leaks #ramblings! #ga-ming #gaming genshin #嘉明

that one bozo who made the gender swapped dame aylin mod: it's unrealistic for minorities to exist in this game because it's supposed to take place in medieval europe!!!!

aasimar, vampires, devils, and dragons aside....

bg3:

#bg3 #thoughts about media #where's the outrage over the existence of a 1950s québécois dish in a medieval european setting? hm?? #canada...canada doesn't exist in the forgotten realms. the land which this country occupies does- but the concept of the nation does not. #also! in the forgotten realms- bisexuality is the canonical norm and gender is much more complicated than just a clear cut binary. #several races have words in their languages specifically for transgender people. #and it's not viewed as strange in any way for someone to be transgender. transition is also super easy- as magic exists. #in fact. it's very probable that dame aylin CHOSE the form of a woman. based on what I've read- the divine can easily change their form. #and devils are all varying flavours of non-binary. primarily genderfluid it seems. it's totally normal for them to change form and pronouns #the majority of elven societies practice total gender equality- they do not see one gender as better/worse than the other in any way. #and bg3 actually does reflect the forgotten realms canon. pretty strongly. in this respect. #the illithid are genderless and referred to as such. your elven companions are all bisexual & polyamorous... #...duke stelmane has this title because it's a canonically genderless title. there is no use of sorceress/wizardess for the same reason. #and of course- your player character can swap gender & pronouns midway through the game and no one will care. at all. #like. for all the terrible problems with the forgotten realms- it's become FAR more aware of the fact that it's ridiculous for... #...a fantasy world to restrict gender and sexuality in the all-encompassing & discriminatory way that bigots demand. #also this isn't ammunition for anyone to pick on people who have lesbian/gay or straight tavs or durges. #my own main tav is a gay man.

I think johnkat is good because I imagine it to be like John and Karkat having to go from leading everyone to some sort of victory, to just chilling, but now it's a battle on who does the fucking dishes or laundry and almost always ends up with Karkat getting what he wanted but in the most convoluted fucking way imaginable.

KARKAT: WOW, FOR A GUY WHO SEEMED SO CONFIDENT HE COULD SAVE US AND WITHOUT A DOUBT MAKE A NEW UNIVERSE, YOU SURE SEEM *AWFULLY FUCKING QUIET* OVER A MENIAL TASK LIKE DOING THE DISHES, EGBERT.

JOHN: you want me.

KARKAT: WE ARE NOT DOING THIS RIGHT NOW.

JOHN: your pitch flirting is awful, to make me feel better you should do the laundry. :B

KARKAT: HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY TIME SUCH POOR HUMOR AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT? IS THIS YOUR PRANKSTER'S GAMBIT'S TRUE NATURE OR ARE YOU GENUINELY THAT FUCKING DENSE ACROSS THE BOARD?

KARKAT: DO YOU EVEN REMEMBER THE SHITSLOSH CONVERSATION WE HAVE BEEN FUCKING GOING BACK AND FORTH ON FOR INDESCRIBLE HOURS?

JOHN: no, it's been so long i kinda forgot.

KARKAT: JOHN.

KARKAT: JUST DO US BOTH A FAVOR AND CLEAN THE DISHES.

JOHN: what? no! i dont want to do the dishes.

KARKAT: ARE YOU—

John is grinning at him, and comes over and gives the troll a soft kiss on the cheek, stroking the other one softly. Karkat, shocked and speechless, watches his matesprit walk back over to the sink and turn on the water. He snaps out of the daze for a moment.

KARKAT: THE HOT WATER, YOU IMBECILE!

John 284 - Karkat 12 [amount of times one "won" so to speak] [John's really good at it] [Karkat has his moments] [[Read tags]]
