this is a stupid pet peeve but idk. 'Cooking is an art baking is a science ' is bullshit. you can follow a baking recipe step by step mirroring the original cook Exactly and still get a crap end result.

this is because your kitchen is not their kitchen. unless you live very close to them, their ingredients might be Radically different from yours even if they're technically the same thing. and worse of all. even if you're roommates. if they made their thing first the conditions will be different when you make yours.

like. baking is just ratios. ratio of starch to water to binder to leavener to etc etc.

But you have to include things like. ambient humidity and temperature and where the crop your flour is from was grown and what strain of yeast your using and when your starch was harvested and what the cows and chickens who provided the eggs and dairy were fed and what microbes exist in your environment and how thety hurt or aid flavor and rise time. like. You have to know how to account for the messy nature of reality and there is no formula for that. just repetition until you figure out the flow.

#like. idk man #i need recipes to be geo tagged because like. #here in the states our wheat has to be extremely cold hardy right? way more so than europes #it also needs to be able to handle like. tornadoes and other extreme weather you get that far inland on a flat plane #which means that compared to European flour ours has an insanely high glutin content bc glutin is how the plant strengthens itself #You need to account for that when cooking #more leavener more water less binder gentler kneading and longer rise time #so like. im brain dead exhausted but Yeah. baking very much isnt a science and your great grandma did just fine without a hyper accurate #gram scale being shilled by YouTubers.

the zone of interest was so wonderfully done and i keep reading reviews, or worse, reactions to glazer's acceptance speech, that completely miss the point of the film. i read a review that said the directorial choices were too heavy handed--- clearly they were not when a large chunk of these aggressive critics of glazer have completely missed the point because there was "no suffering shown on screen"

the victim complex you must have to cultivate to watch a 2+ hour film that looks u in the eyes and says "have you questioned your comfort? have you questioned how power and wealth is acquired?" and come away angry that there wasnt enough torture porn in it

glazer showed that you can see suffering and exploitation without ever SEEING the suffering or exploitation. the point of the film is not even the domestic bliss next to atrocity but could more accurately be condensed down to a single scene where a nazi officer pleads to his superior to not kill all the prisoners incoming not in the interest of the human lives at stake but because his business desperately needs workers

and if you watch that, and you think, "nothing terrible was shown in this film. no suffering was displayed" then your worldview is rotted and your morality is askew.

to be surprised that this holocaust film is also about gaza is to have a fundamental misunderstanding about power and injustice in the world

i'm very picky about tv shows, but my pickiness has only an incidental relationship to whether or not a show is "good". it needs to scratch a particular itch in my brain at the right moment. do i know what the right moment is? no. do i know what the itch is? also no. i can be relied upon to get instantly bored of 85% of tv shows and then turn the remaining 15% into a central facet of my personality for 3-5 business months and even i am incapable of predicting which one it'll be ahead of time.

#least favorite genre of people are the ones who are like 'but how do you reconcile enjoying this thing with the fact that it's not good 🤨' #and like idk man aside from the fact that 'good' is not an immutable and universally agreed-upon descriptor #sometimes shit just makes my brain go brrr and i'm not interested in deconstructing it any further

part of my nimona viewing experience. idk why but i got super emotional in the first five minutes.

ID by @peachygos

[ID: A comic juxtaposing screenshots from Nimona 2023 and drawings of a person watching the movie. The first screenshot is Ambrosius's introduction; he grins at the camera as the news anchors introduce him, his name in big print on the screen. The person watching thinks with a bored expression, "Ah. Ok. This guy is gonna be the jackass. Typical golden-boy stuck-up prince that thinks he's better than the underdog. I see where this is going.

The next screenshot is of Ambrosius and Ballister on the platform above the arena, Ambrosius doing his news anchor bit and saying, "Aaand will Ballister be broody on the biggest day of his life?" Ballister laughs at his antics. The person watching now has a small smile, as they think, "Huh! Aw, they're actually nice to each other and are friends! I wasn't expecting that, that's nice-"

The third and final screenshot is a shot from behind of Ballister leaning his head on Ambrosius's shoulder. The caption reads "the knighting ceremony is just moments away." The person watching now has a touched, soft expression, like they're holding back tears. They think "OH." as a partially transparent doodle behind them bends over crying and blubbering, with another doodle showing their heart shot through with an arrow. /end ID]

#nimona #nimona movie #my art #i dont know WHY the relationship between these two made me so happy. genuinely. but i was tearing up when they held hands #idk man. just- the feeling of 'ah. friendship between these two men like always. i see-' and then #'OH. oh god theyre in love. that so sweet. i wasnt expecting that what the fuck.' #im not an outwardly emotional person

"well why did you ghost them" BC I'M INSANE AND DEPRESSED LEAVE ME ALONE. like I CANT I CANT GO THERE if I see them I'm gonna throw up on the spot

#delete #like im aware this situation is entirely my fault ok i know this. just let me complain a little please #and like idk it was kinda tiring. not thwir fault but they just didnt get it (of course they didnt) #like i would constantly be sad and upset and down and not want to hang out and when we hungnout i would suddenly just drop #and feel miserable and ruin the whole mood #and if i tried talking about it it would either get too heavy or too frustrating #i know its hard to talk to ppl who are deeper than rock bottom #but its still frustrating to hear the basic oh well thats really sad bit have you thought about like. letting go of that and getting better #and also one day they kinda said something thats made me spiral in the middle of a birthday party #they said “when you talk like that it kinda drains away my wish to help” <- or something like that translation is hard #and i know (do i? now im questioning it) they meant like “if youre so negative all the time i start losing hope as well and dont know what #i should do to help“ #but it hit really hard and made me miserable #idk. i also dont make things easier for myself #like. idk man #the last time i met this group of friends i regretted it so hard #bc the vibes were like “i mean this so respectfully but can yoh pretend youre not traumatized and depressed and suicidal for a second #were trying to have fun here. we love you and we hear you“ #yk????? #i wouldnt say theyre bad friends. im the one who needed to go #i know how exhausting it is to deal with ppl like me #so its fine I guess #i just wasnt expecting to like. not ve able to go to this famous commecial street bc of this . sucks. #fuck me. as always

I watched Starship Troopers tonight.

#personal #dumb #my art #immediately after finishing i was pumped to watch some analysis vids on it #cuz i heard a lot of the drama about the original author being a pro military fascist and the director going “fuck that” and making a satir #scrolling through youtube search results was not promising. lots of male film buffs i would Not trust even on a first glance. #“The Critical Drinker” (pfp of a bearded man drinking alcohol) lol. #and then I saw cinemawins did a video on it and was like oh nice i haven't seen his stuff in a while but he's a pretty leftist creator #scrolled through the comments #second panel face #this sucks i'm outta here. #just leagues and leagues and leagues of anime pfps and right leaning people dogpiling on him for “not understanding what fascism is” #idk it's pretty alien and weird to me watching this movie and going “wow yeah that was pretty obvious huh” like literally the from opening #to the teacher preaching militance and only giving voting rights to “those who serve their nation first and earn it” #and then seeing droves of people online going #WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? It's not anti-fascist and even if it was it's #the director's fault for desecrating heinlein's incredible sci-fi epic vision. ermm media literacy is dead.
