Would you mind sharing your egg salad recipe? I just boil eggs, cut them up and add mayo. Sprinkle on Trader Joe’s everything but the bagel seasoning. And eat with crackers.

I feel like I’m missing out. I see I should add celery! Anything else?

You will need a new hashtag. #sarahcooks

I like mine a bit more tangy so I add some kind of acid (either lemon juice or apple cider vinegar), dill (fresh or dried), grainy mustard, celery, paprika. If we are adding alliums my choice would be chives or a shallot but I believe the most traditional would be a green onion.

#i will acquiesce and add #sarah cooks #as a tag #but i am not a prolific cook or baker - happier when someone else cooks for me #but i dabbled in cooking a lot during the pandemic

Tonight's experiment: chicken tikka masala from scratch!

This kind of thing, from scratch and to taste and healthy(ier), is part of what the funds in my and hubby's GoFundMe go towards. Good lean meat, low fat dairy, homemade sauce and fresh vegetables. Thank you to everyone who's helped us out so far, I really appreciate it.

Best of YouTube 2023

Yes, I did spend the first week and change of January on this. I wish I could have had it done for New Years, but too many people came out with incredible work in December, so waiting turned out for the best.

What these creators do are a huge influence on my life, I would honestly have difficulty doing what I do without them. That isn't to say that my favorites of the year are *only* on this image--It was almost impossible to narrow down my favorites. Many creators I wanted to include couldn't fit on a single page, and too many of them made more than one video I wished I could draw too!

But, to all of you, thank you for what you do. You're an inspiration.

For those who don't know, further is an explanation.

At the bottom center is an artistic masterpiece by Defunctland: "Journey to EPCOT Center: A Symphonic History." Over the last several years, Defunctland has risen from delightfully-entertaining commentary on decommissioned theme park attractions to occasionally dropping profound statements on the creation of art itself. "Journey to EPCOT Center: A Symphonic History" is worth treating like the cinematic experience it is: No second screen, you sit your ass down in front of a TV, set down the phone, and then you *watch it.* Any Disney, theme park, or independent film fan needs to pay attention to this one.

Bottom left is Caelan Conrad with their piece "Drop the T - The Deadly Consequences of Gay Respectability Politics." While I do think they've done more visually or artistically-daring pieces before, "Drop the T" is one of the most important videos released on YouTube in today's current climate of hate. We as queer folk (and our allies) need to understand how integral every identity of the queer experience has been since the start of the Civil Rights movement (and before!). While we are not identical, we *are* inseparable, and we deserve having our real history easily accessible.

TERFs and other conservative mouthpieces need not reply. Your opinions are trash. 😘

I cannot stop watching and rewatching this video by @patricia-taxxon, "On the Ethics of Boinking Animal People." It's not just a defense of furry fandom and its eccentricities, it's a thoughtful and passionate analysis of what the artform achieves that purely human representation can't. Patricia goes outside of her usual essay format to directly speak to the viewer about the elements that define furry media (the most succinct definition I've ever heard) and just how *human* an act loving animal cartoons really is.

As an artist who can draw furry characters, but never really got into erotic furry art, this video is a treasure. Why did I choose to have her drawn as a Ghibli character, hanging out with one of the tanukis from "Pom Poko?" Guess you'll have to watch, bruh.

Philosophy Tube continuously puts out videos that I would put on this list--I'm not even sure that "A Man Plagiarised my Work: Women, Money, and the Nation" is the best work she released in 2023. However, this video got many conversations going between myself and my partner, and the twist on the tail end of the video shocked us both to such a degree that I had no choice.

At the very tail end of the year, Big Joel released "Fear of Death." On his Little Joel channel, he described it as the singularly best video he's ever done, and I'm inclined to agree. However, for this illustration, I ended up repeatedly going back to a mini-series he did earlier in the year: "Three Stories at the End of the World." All three videos are deeply moving and haunting, and I was brought to tears by "We Must Destroy What the Bomb Cannot." While it may be relatively-common knowledge that the original Gojira (Godzilla) film is horror grappling with the devastation America's rush to atomic dominance inflicted on Japan, Big Joel still manages to bring new words to the discussion. Please watch all three of the videos, but if, for some reason, you must have only one, let it be "We Must Destroy What the Bomb Cannot."

Y'all. Let me confess something. I hate football. I hate watching it, I associate seeing it from the stadiums with some of my worst childhood experiences, I despise collegiate and professional football (as institutions that destroy bodies and offer up children at the feet of its alter as a pillar of American culture)--

I. L o a t h e. Football.

But.

F.D. Signifier could get me to watch an entire hour-plus essay on why I should at least give a passing care. AND HE DID IT. I might think "F*ck the Police," the two-parter on Black conservatism, or his essay on Black men's connection to anime might be "better" videos, but this writer did the impossible and held my limited attention span towards football long enough to make a sincere case for NFL players--and reminds us that millionaires can *in fact* be workers. That alone is testament to his skill.

Sit down and watch "The REAL Reason NFL Running Backs Aren't Getting Paid." Any good anti-capitalist owes it to themselves.

CJ the X continuously puts out stunning, emotional videos, and can do it with the most seemingly-inconsequential starting points. A 30 second song? An incestuous commercial? Five minutes of Tangled? Sure, why not. Go destroy yourself emotionally by watching them. I'm serious. Do it.

Their video Stranger Things and the Meaning of Life manages to to remind us all why the way we react to media does, in fact, matter. Yes, even nostalgia-driven, mass-media schlock. Yes, how we interact with media matters, what it says about us matters, and we all deserve to seek out the whys.

Folding Ideas has spent the last few years articulating exactly why so much of our modern world feels broken, and because of that his voice continuously lives rent-free in my brain. While the tricks that scam artists and grifters use to try to swindle us are never new, the advancement of technology changes the aesthetics of their performances. Portions of Folding Ideas' explanations might seem dry when going into detail of how stocks work in This is Financial Advice, but every bit of it is necessary to peel back the layers of techno-babble and jargon and make sense of the results of "Meme Stocks."

Jessie Gender puts out nothing but bangers, her absolute unit of a video about Star Wars might be my new favorite thing ever, but none of her work hit so profoundly in 2023 than the two-parter "The Myth of 'Male Socialization'" and "The Trauma of Masculinity." There's so much about modern life that isolates and traumatizes us, and so much of it is just shrugged off as "normal." We owe it to ourselves to see the world in more vivid a color palette than we're initially given.

Panels drawn after Kate Beaton and "Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands."

"This is Not a Video Essay" is one of the most intense and beautiful pieces of art I've ever put into my eyeballs. Why do we create? What drives us to connect?

I don't even know what else to say about the Leftist Cooks' work, it repeatedly transcends the medium and platform. Watch every single one of their videos, but especially this one.

The likelihood you are terminally online and yet haven't heard of Hbomberguy's yearly forrays into destroying the careers of awful people is pretty slim. Just because it has millions of views doesn't mean that Hbomberguy's "Plagiarism and You(Tube)" isn't worth the hype. Too long? Shut up, it has chapters and YouTube holds your place, anyway. You think a deep dive into a handful of creators is only meaningless drama? Well, you're wrong, you wrong-opinion-haver. Plagiarism is an *everyone* problem because of the actual harm it creates--the history it erases, the labor it devalues, the art it marginalizes--which you would know if you watched "Plagiarism and You(Tube)".

Watch. The damn. Video.

In fact, watch all of them!

Thanks for reading this if you did.

Bethesda was trying to teach you people the journey was more important than the destination

It's not about space, it's not about game mechanics, it's not about the sometimes bad writing

it's about the nobody miner who is uprooted from their life and thrown into this incredible mystery about artifacts, it's about exploring yourself and who you are, it's about the journey not the destination

if you hated it you missed the entire point of the main story, one of the members of Constellation even tries to hint at what Bethesda is really giving you, Sarah Morgan asks you if you enjoy the journey or the destination, it slapped you in the face and you completely missed it because you were too busy being bumhurt it wasn't a game about space exploration, it was in some senses but the space part is really on a back burner because it doesn't matter

the journey from the beginning of the game to end game is what matters you brainless monkey

#bethesda #starfield #sarah morgan #Bethesda was cooking with Starfield and you can't convince me otherwise #the journey means more than the destination #haters go find a brain and leave your basement to touch some grass

In the middle of my HotD rewatch

The gyroscope of interpretation on this show has been at the forefront of my rewatch along with now having read some of the script and read/watched cast interviews.

This one inference made by Olivia Cooke (via Sarah Hess) has plagued me for the first few episodes.

Now, now I know these waters are really muddy what with a few obvious conceptual things: "isn't this queer baiting" "if it wasn't it wouldn't be good sapphic representation anyway" "this is an actors interpretation" blah blah blah. I'm not arguing any of that.

Just that Olivia's head canon held against this scene hits SO MUCH HARDER

Because I gotta say MY GOD imagine how that strikes Alicent if at some point her mother caught them together. Before they even really knew what they were doing (objectively to the tune of they were 13/14 not fully clear on platonic/romantic love) her mother impressed upon them it was wrong. When they denied and in some way or another Alicent/Rhaenyra saying "she never touched me." Only for Alicent to hear it echoed back to her years later like this... Knowing that even in her naïveté she would recognize the truth. That Alicent’s mother, naturally, kept this contained. Which honestly plays more to truly making Alicent more complex by the way she saw what “scandal” her mother covered up for her only for her to act out some perversion of this with Aegon when she’s a mother. A learned behavior twisted in the worst way, because that's what she knew.

Listen I fully understand that this show is NOT taking this angle even though there seems to be a huge division between what some writers and actors are playing to and the editors at HBO imaginably being like "what's all this gay shit?" BUT

I think it's part of what this show missed about TRAGEDY and I mean come on you want drama???? These girlies were ready to hand it to you on a silver plater! In this context I needed:

Rhaenyra being devastated by the news that Alicent was going to be marrying her father. The sheer heartbreak of “this can’t be happening” and knowing she would have lost Alicent to a husband but not THIS. Show her with Syrax, confiding in her dragon because now she has no other friend to talk to - I’m just saying if they were going with the context of “Fire & Blood itself is an unreliable narrator and only shows certain people’s views” - then a scene like this disrupts nothing. Tell me how when they prayed together and Alicent told her to "kneel with me" that part of Rhaenyra prayed for that world where they flew off on dragon back and ate cake.

Alicent being devastated - having her heart torn in two, crying behind every closed door knowing she was going to break the heart of her best friend. The deleted scene does give a peak of that being the case - but again it could/should have been included. Show me Alicent begging Rhaenyra to forgive her and desperately saying she loves her. I think one of the things that Team Green argues the most could have been explored by this avenue, Alicent is a victim of her marriage - it would be inherently more compelling if in the process she is also losing the closest thing to a "first love" she had. Show me Alicent at her desk writing letters to Rhae once a week and then ceremoniously burning them in the braziers. Alicent leaning more into religion as a means of getting out from under her repressed desires and past actions.

Show me both women struggling in their adulthood to even remember why they held "such childhood affections" for each other. Knock the fucking wind out of me with a line like, "the worst part of it all was that they only ever wanted to love each other."

To me one of the worst parts of this production (of which there's a few) has got to be this was the apex of completely missed opportunities to explore. In the premise of "going by unreliable sources" their queerness would be suppressed information. I even think it plays into the dynamic between Rhae-Alicent-Criston in a kind of "Jennifer's Body" way where Rhae was really only interested in him as the object of Alicent's desires which I believe is made a little clearer in the books. A kind of "see this could have been us if you didn't marry my bag-of-bones father" for Rhaenyra who clearly had no aversion to consorts.

I'm sorry to go on this rant, and yes I KNOW - the counter arguments for many of these points. I would even argue some of them further such as the sapphic representation not being invalidated simply because both women do end up with men in the source material. If this was the case then why was "Portrait of a Lady on Fire" received so well? This at the very least to say if they made Alicent and Rhaenyra explicitly queer it would still be less controversial than what the queer men on that show got … Still its not even to say "it's a better way" to explore more of Rhaenyra and Alicent's characters but its at least A WAY to do it. More than we got. Surely both sides could agree on that.

Sorry, now I'm just being pedantic. As a queer woman naturally I have a bias but I still think this was objectively a missed opportunity to explore. Both girl's back stories could have been enriched and tbh a lot of HOTD fans I know also had the same complaint that the time skip came in too early. I think it also makes things less likely to be so divisive between TG and TB when you look at the central pillars of this conflict. You can truly grieve for Alicent and Rhaenyra and what they lost already while on the verge of losing it all. Anyway, I gotta go cry about my divorced lesbian war wives.

Making A Home of Each Other

by Lucy Bellwood

It’s rare to be able to pinpoint how these things begin, but for once I know I started it: “Dear Zina, I think you’re amazing. Will you be my housemate? [Y] / [N]” I tucked that note into your bicycle handlebars eleven years ago. It landed us across the hall from one another in an over-occupied three-bedroom house on Southeast 45th Avenue. We were chaotic college kids who didn't eat together often. When we did, it was cookies made vast in the cast-iron skillet, or haphazard potlucks thrown together at birthdays. You and I never left for our morning classes at the same time, but I can still measure our entire relationship in breakfasts.

The ever-magnificent Lucy Bellwood has written this stunning, heart-filling essay about what it means to make a life with the person who is destined to be your Home. It is one of the most beautiful things I've ever read. This essay is accompanied by @lucybellwood's recipe for The Eggs, a preparation of (you guessed it) eggs that's secretly a whole meal. I've had the privilege of getting to eat these eggs and can testify that they are wildly delicious. You'll never eat breakfast the same way again.

Go read the essay and get the recipe here!

Sarah Miller never did anything wrong, and I mean never. She never cheated on a test, never faked sick to get out of P.E., always turned off the tv by 8 even when Joel wasn’t home. She was the kind of kid to finish her science lab work early and help the table beside her who was running behind. She knew the names of the bus driver and their mail lady and the guy at blockbuster that checked them out every other Friday when they had movie marathons. She never skipped brushing her teeth, she helped baby birds when they fell out of their nests. She smiled at babies and old people. She was the single most radiant ray of sunshine in the world, no wonder Joel can’t help but light up when he talks about her.

#sarah miller #joel miller #tlou #im just!!!!#she eas such a good kid you can tell #the way she spends time with her elderly neighbors and cooks her dad breakfast on his birthday #im so emo over her and then #THEM #the last of us

I just made the french onion baked lentils and farro from Smitten Kitchen and man, what a home run.

Good prompt to share my online sources that I return to time and time again!

Probably obviously, Smitten Kitchen! I've been following Deb for about 15 years and MANY of her recipes are in my regular rotation. When I have an ingredient I want to use up and am not sure what to do with it, I often search it up on her site for inspiration. That said, most of her recipes are rather complex and time-consuming, and I usually prefer her savory offerings over the sweets.

Sohla El-Waylly. Oh how I love her. She is not only a chef, but an educator. In addition to her newsletter that I linked to, her Off Script series on Food 52 (a reliable site in general in my experience) is an incredible resource, as is her new cookbook Start Here. Her recipes almost always include suggestions for ingredient substitutions that get you thinking about core concepts and techniques, not just following a rote list of steps every time.

Claire Saffitz is my go-to resource for baking. Like Sohla, she knows how to TEACH, which I value so highly. Her recipes are sometimes complex, but watching her videos makes even the most epic of bakes accessible.

Joe Rosenthal has a grand total of 5 recipes online, but they are wildly detailed and informative. I live by his advice regarding salting food - "do not be obscene, but do not fail through your own gutlessness." His recipes are essays you have to study and pore over, not something you pull up for a quick weeknight meal, but I've learned so much from him and have to shout him out at every opportunity.

Stone Soup Supper Club and the Personal Canons Cookbook by @sarahgailey! I found their newsletter at the start of the pandemic when they shared cooking inspiration for all of us stuck at home with limited grocery access. Since then, it's been a constant delight to have my horizons broadened by the diverse group of chefs that they feature from week to week.

It doesn't hurt that all of these folks are simply lovely as people as well. All a delight to follow, read, watch, and learn from!

Do you think joel was a good cook or couldn't boil water to save his life lol. I feel like I read a lot of fics where joel couldnt' even cook an egg as a single dad, but idk i feel like either he could be really good at cooking, or he was okay at it but he had a couple of dishes that he could cook really well, like chili or something lmao or some southern dish.

As a single father with a teenage daughter and not enough money to live high on the fog, I'd say he had to be able to cook. I don't think he was great, because he surely didn't have enough time to practice in the kitchen with having to work all the time to take care of the bills and other things, and because they would mostly end up ordering takeout or pizza with Sarah. But I believe he would enjoy cooking on weekends, with Sarah helping him out (or making fun of him).

He was probably more likely to make the easiest dishes out there. Like mixing rice or pasta with meat and vegetables and either serving it just like this (either hot or cold) or baking it with cheese on top or something like this. He was probably good at preparing meat too, like roasting chicken or pork and then eating it with plain or roasted potatoes, or just making spaghetti meatballs, the easiest dish out there. I can also see Joel making homemade pizza by throwing cheese on a dough with mushrooms, pepperoni, and ham. Nothing revolutionary or nutritious, but doable and edible.

Imagining Joel probably had a grill in his backyard, he would spend his summer days with Sarah just barbecueing. He would have a good steak once in a while, and Sarah would love grilled corn. They both probably liked grilled vegetable kabobs too. But they would have mostly just burgers anyway since they couldn't get enough of these. And of course, he can't forget about salads; he would also make all sorts of salads if he was lazy: chicken salad, summer salad, lentil salad, you name it.

I don't think he was a bad cook. I think he would do really well if he tried. I think he also had a few tricks up his sleeve. Like making the best baked chicken/beef tacos or lasagna, which I can imagine were Sarah's favorites. Or something like parmesan garlic roasted potatoes, which he would look up on the internet and make for Sarah because he knew how much she loved parmesan and potatoes.

And not to forget about Ellie, I am sure she had a chance to taste some of his specialties too. There wouldn't probably be that many options in the post-apocalyptic world, but I bet my shoes that Ellie would love his parmesan garlic roasted potatoes, making him happy to remember Sarah loved those too.

"Joel, these are so fucking delicious!" She says, around a mouthful of the savory potatoes, working another spoonful of them into her mouth. "Promise me..." She swallows. "Promise me you'll make these again."

"Sure, kiddo." He chuckles, pleased with himself, wishing he can make himself stop grinning. "Easy, though. Don't choke on them." This warms his heart.

"Fuck it, I would die for these potatoes!"

thinking about david and sarah today. i will forever believe that sarah is older than david, even if only by a few years (or even months if you wanna go that way!), and he looks up to her so much. because other than esther and mayer, she helped shape david's mind and his way of thinking, if you get what i'm saying. like. it's sarah who taught david the importance of having the right to his own opinions and defending them, but she also taught him to be open-minded and tolerant and kind (and i don't mean this in a way like, obviously david is a sarcastic bitch, but he has ideals and. you know what i'm talking about. he isn't one dimensional). and david just kind of always admired sarah and forever will--she always soothed him the most when he was going through his teen problems (e.g. trans david first telling sarah and getting greatly consoled by her) and he always admired how calm yet confident and firm in her statements she was. and overall i just think they love each other very very much <3

#newsies #newsies 1992 #92sies #david jacobs #newsies david jacobs #sarah jacobs #newsies sarah jacobs #david and sarah Forever actually. heart #they gossip together. they cook together. they cry together. they fight. they laugh together. they hold each other #they're inseparable and can't stand each other. they're the siblings ever
