Citizen Cooks in the Age of Napoleon
Tumblr media
Excerpt about the role of cooks in France after the abolition of culinary guilds, and how they navigated a world which demanded for them to find new ways to stay relevant and prosperous. From Defining Culinary Authority: The Transformation of Cooking in France, 1650-1830 by Jennifer J. Davis:
French cooks sought new sites upon which to rebuild the authority of culinary labor. Throughout the early nineteenth century cooks increasingly adopted scientific terms to demonstrate their reliability and profound knowledge of the culinary arts. Such language communicated the author's education and distinction, just as an appeal to an elite patron had done in the 1660s and referral to a cook's professional expertise had done in the 1760s. The rhetoric and institutions of scientific knowledge also provided a means of distinguishing men's work from women's in the post-revolutionary era. During the early nineteenth century, cooks' claims to scientifically valuable savoir-faire rested on three crucial points of culinary innovation: food preservation, the improved production of bouillon, and gelatin extraction.
As these processes left the realm of traditional knowledge and became sites of scientific inquiry by tradespeople and amateurs alike, cooks sought to maintain authority in this arena by including scientific terms and theories in cookbooks, advertisements, and government petitions.
Two factors encouraged cooks' claims to scientific knowledge during this era. First, when Napoleon Bonaparte took the reins of government as first consul in 1799 and established himself as emperor in 1804, he raised medical doctors and academic scientists, Idéologues, to positions of political prominence. From these posts, the Idéologues subsidized experiments and inventions deemed useful to the nation and encouraged the popularization of science in the public sphere through state sponsorship of exhibitions and print forums. The Idéologues particularly supported research related to food preparation and preservation that might benefit France's armies and navies, with obvious benefits for professional cooks. Many cooks presented their particular techniques to the government during this time, seeking both financial recompense and public acclaim. Second, a voluntary association closely allied with the Idéologues' vision, the Société d'encouragement pour l'industrie nationale (Society for the Encouragement of National Industry), provided a forum in which formally trained scientists, politicians, merchants, artisans, and curious educated men might unite to address questions that inhibited French science and industry.
Together, these men sought to develop a more coherent program for industrial advancement than any one group could achieve independently. The society explicitly sought to join scientific knowledge to artisanal practical expertise, recognizing that each group had strengths that would benefit industrial development. This association invested heavily in three diffuse projects that eventually infused the most basic culinary processes with scientific awareness: new methods of food preservation to benefit the nation's armies and navies, new methods of stock preparation to sustain the nation's poor, and new methods of extracting gelatin from bones to improve hospital and military diets at little added expense.

It's been two months and five days since I've started Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Today, I finished the very last episode. (I know I'm making this more dramatic than it is, but idc)
So, it's been a lot. So many good, great things, but also a lot of weird, disturbing things. Characters I loved all the way through (Hunter, Piper, Davis, Sousa, every Koenig (I think)); Characters I almost loved all the way through, except for a few episodes where they made some choices I didn't agree with or so (Fitz, Simmons, Bobbi, Coulson, Daisy, May, Deke, Enoch); Characters about whom I wouldn't say I loved them but I still liked them very much (Mack, YoYo, Trip, Mace, Flint); Characters who weren't exactly the good guys but still were somewhat likable to some extent (Ward, Radcliffe, Cal, Gordon, Jiaying, Sunil Bakshi, Robbie, Kora), and of course Characters who were written to be hated (The Malicks, Garrett, Whitehall, Lucy Bauer, Ellen Nadeer, Ivanov, Kassius, the Hales, Izel, Sybil) and everyone who I don't know in which category to put, or what to name their category.
I am so glad, that the phase in season five where I couldn't stand Daisy, was over as soon as season six started. I was surprised by how MUCH I loved her in season seven.
Season six was definitely my least favorite (and of what I've read I'm not the only one with that opinion). But I can't say it enough, how much I loved the parts in space of Piper, Davis, Daisy, and Jemma (and later only Daisy and Jemma) searching for Fitz and Enoch. I can't think of one single moment right now from that space part, that I didn't like. But I really hated Izel and this whole shrike thing, and Sarge and his team, so I was really glad when season seven started.
Because season seven started off just absolutely great! I already said that I loved their clothes. Sending Jemma in as Peggy Carter in the 50s was perfection. Daisy saying she already has a sister to save, her name is Jemma Simmons. May falling through the ceiling, punching Sybil and saying "The Cavalry". Fitzsimmons naming their daughter after a star. Piper's wish from Jemma being getting Davis back. The team meeting up (at least) once a year to catch up and not losing each other. All of that is perfection.
There is so much more I want to write about, but first, I can't put everything into words (right now), and second, this post would be way too long.
I am so glad that I started Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and I'm even more glad that I continued watching even though the first five episodes or so didn't convince me at all, and at first I only stayed because of the characters.
I am thankful for everyone involved, but especially those who decided that these wonderful actors would get the role they got, because honestly? I couldn't have asked for a cast that was more fitting.
I will start re-watch soon (at least in parts), because friends of mine started watching, but I have yet to convince them that it gets better than it currently is (they are in episode four).

Nobody asked for, and yet, here’s my first fanzine ever 💖
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fueles by the fact that I grew up in a world where I liked famous men nome of my friends ever liked. I never found fanfictions, fancams, edits, not even proper HD images. Many years later, here I am, still thirsting over men that could be my grandfather, or that may be dead.
However, this is an ode to my latest odd preferences in men 💖
So, umm…yeah, this is supposed to be printed one day, but for now, I can only share it here (:

Rewriting Bolton History | Part 3 | Historic Cup Final
#FM24 Rewriting Bolton History Part 3: Historic Cup Final. Our #FMExperiment stepping into Big Sam's shoes in the 07/08 database continues. And Trebor Mahtal leads #BWFC into a record-equalling league finish and a #UEFACup Final. Read here:
In this 2nd season, I noticed a couple of issues: 1) European competitions adopted the new real-life format. 2) Real-life newgens don’t come into the game through the database save file. These aren’t massive issues, and I couldn’t be bothered to restart, but it may curtail the longevity of the save. Trebor Mahtal had successfully stepped into the shoes of Big Sam as he led Bolton Wanderers to…

Aber Zeit ist ja relativ, wissen wir seit Einstein. Er sitzt gelegentlich am Strand und spielt die Geige, während auf Feldern mit Raumschiffen getanzt wird, der Zug, mit dem er seine Theorie erklärt langsam über die Bühne rollt oder Gerichtsverhandlungen oder irgendwas in einem Gebäude stattfindet und andere Bilder, die Philip Glass und Robert Wilson in den Sinn kommen, wenn sie an ihn denken. Durch den kompletten Verzicht auf eine Handlung und letztlich auch auf Opernsänger (der Chor macht die meiste Arbeit. Obwohl ziemlich gegen Ende* gibt es eine sehr schöne Sopranarie.) und die Besetzung mit bloß 6 Instrumentalisten, von denen einer auch die Titelrolle spielt, muss ihr avantgardististisches minimalisitisches Großkunstwerk Einstein on the Beach als außerordentlich untypisches Beispiel für eine Oper in 4 Akten gewertet werden. Sie ist sogar noch länger als Love Exposure. Die Zuschauer wurden ermutigt, zwischendurch ruhig mal rauszugehen, weil man davon ausgehen kann, daß wenn man wieder kommt, auch nichts wesentlich anderes los ist (Das  stimmt natürlich nicht, Philip Glass sagt, er versteht gar nicht, warum Leute seine Musik für Endlosschleifen halten, es passiere immer was.) Also gut, es ist immer was los, aber halt recht langsam. Man ist etwas fassungslos, hat aber das Gefühl, man sollte das schon mal erlebt haben. Ich war allerdings doch ganz froh, daß ich das jetzt im Wohnzimmer machen konnte, und nicht im Opernhaus. Am Schönsten ist “Night Train”.

So Marvel made Agents of SHIELD not technically “MCU Canon” and in the show there are discontinuities revolving around Thanos. 
I’m bored and just somehow got sucked back into AOS despite being in like three other fandoms, so I’m just going to put down my headcanons for the differences.
Everything under the tag because it got a bit long.
MCU:
Project Deathlok is a failure and John Garrett dies somewhere in a secret base. 
Without anyone’s support, Raina’s persuasive ability can only get her so far. Her death appears in the newspapers as an open-and-shut murder case.
Ward wastes whatever potential he could have had in the prison system. He’s unfortunate enough to have been in New York in 2012 and an errant blast from a Chitauri ship kills him. 
Ironically, in the same city, at the same time, a twenty-four-year-old hacker stays in front of Stark Tower just a few moments too long. She dies as Skye, buried beneath a pile of rubble.
Her father never finds what he’s looking for, and the SHIELD agents are just a little faster. Jiaying never makes it out of that village alive.
By a miracle, Calvin Zabo survives and clings to life just long enough to find a certain Daniel Whitehall. The bastardized serum works just long enough for them to kill each other.
Coulson dies on the operating table, unwilling to be dragged back to life.
Melinda May stays behind her desk and is killed fighting off a swarm of HYDRA agents. The Mockingbird falls, and so does a mechanical engineer by the name of Alphonso Mackenzie.
Fitzsimmons die in an unmarked grave. For all their brilliance and usefulness, they’re too loyal.
The Inhumans see what happens to their kind and the doors of the Afterlife never open again. Terrigen never falls into the sea, and Elena Rodriguez isn’t fast enough to dodge the bullets. 
There’s no backlash against the Inhumans. For all the world knows, they don’t exist.
Lance Hunter continues on with his life, but the life of a mercenary is a dangerous one. He’s very good, but not everyone can outrun death.
Without the new SHIELD discretely taking down HYDRA cells, the Avengers become more involved. HYDRA agents, like Ruby, are killed in the ensuing destruction. 
But SHIELD agents that should have survived are killed too. Davis and Piper both die as humans. Casualties aren’t just a result of HYDRA. Antoine Triplett dies securing the Gravitonium, and after SHIELD falls, its left in the Fridge, forgotten.
The monolith finds no sacrifice, and Hive still waits on an almost lifeless planet for a chance.
Ghost Rider never hides the Darkhold, but Agatha Harkness discovers quite an interesting read.
AIDA and the Framework never exist, and Radcliffe is only ever known as the eccentric transhumanist.
Without the Destroyer of Worlds and the Inhumans, the Kree never intervene again, Captain Marvel’s warning is more than enough to deter the Empire... for now.
The Shrike continue to grow to be a problem, and eventually, galactical superpowers intervene. On Earth, Kamar-taj steps in, quietly taking care of the problem.
Chroncya-2 is never destroyed, and the Chronicoms remain peaceful.
SHIELD never recovers, and half the universe dies.
AOS:
The Sokovia Accords are simultaneously better and worse. More people are fearful, but not many will be so brazen as to announce such radical and violent ideas to the face of an Inhuman delegate.
Those who signed the Accords are pushed to make it better, to make it more humane, and to make it more of a support system for those who suddenly find themselves with powers.
Thanos invades Xandar, expecting an easy fight. It’s suddenly not so easy when the Destroyer of Worlds and a person made of energy punch their way through his fleet. Xandar is wrecked, but the planet and its people still live on.
The Asgardians face Ragnarök, but without Thanos in their way, settle down in Norway, further contributing to the widespread changes made to the Sokovia Accords in favor of superhumans.
Captain America begins an “Out of Time” club, and eventually, the Avengers are peer-pressured into reforming.
