lmao rachel that would all be well and good... if that was actually hades and persephone 💀😭

that's really the smoking gun here that rachel is 1.) always drawing H x P smut by default and can just put things in black and grey to make it look like any other character 2.) all of her characters suffer from so much same face syndrome that even she can't tell them apart and 3.) rachel doesn't even read her own comic anymore

#case closed #LO is like an episode of kitchen nightmares #where you're just cringing so hard from watching the delusional owners run their business into the ground #and the owners are like “we just don't get why people don't want to eat here :(((”#meanwhile they can't remember the last time they even stocked their fridge with fresh food or dusted the place LOL #it's the amy's baking company of webtoons #lo critical #anti lore olympus #lore olympus critical

Hiii everyone, say, how do your Hawkes go go about sharing their estate? If they do it at all? Is everyone free to come and go or are they more private? Or do they only invite their LI to stay? I'm curious!! :)

#lay rambles #my ocs #oc: liam hawke #oc: lilian hawke #both my hawkes are very social w their friends but i love comparing their boundaries around it #theres variation in rules for specific ppl with both of them ofc but theres still general differences #with liam its all very open and everyone can p much come and go whenever #they dont get extra keys (theyll get lost and he doesnt want randos finding them lol) but they know where to find the spare key #and bodhan and sandal and orana know to let them in whenever #hes very lenient in this this regard but he does have rules abt what he does and doesnt want them to do #mostly its about not making too much of a mess lol bc liam prefers to clean himself #(he doesnt trust the crew with his household and also he has particular ways of doing things and Hates when theyre done differently)#so things like keep your dirty garb at the entrance dont cook by yourselves (this was banned after they did it one (1) time lol) etc #also no fucking allowed. do that somewhere else for the love of the maker he does NOT want to walk into that in his own house #(and it also comes back to liam not trusting them with cleaning but also Not wanting to clean that up lol)#also he is not fond of them going into his room uninvited. most of the house is chill but that is *his* space #he accommodates these rules by e.g. having spare slippers and a little washing basin in the entrance hall for dirty shoes/feet #always makes sure to have snacks in stock that he knows they like #food will have notes abt what to leave for leandra/orana/etc but otherwise food is prepared with his friends in mind #and in general he'll make sure to adjust the space/routine in little ways to accommodate them #(air out when fen isnt there cus he doesnt like drafts; keep curtains open cus anders prefers open spaces; etc)#lilian on the other hand doesnt like when her friends come into the estate without a heads up (cept for emergencies)#but once they have her 'ok' its basically mi casa es su casa #dont yknow. overdo it and get too rowdy but otherwise do whatever #however. she also expects everyone to clean up after themselves. she aint here to play maid and youre all adults #also liam has a general 'please try to not be too wild when leandra is here' and lilian doesnt #not cos she doesnt care but cos leandra is bothered by sth she can speak up herself #oh and lilian uses the basement space as temporary refuge for anyone who needs it (mostly escaped mages)#also side note: both offered gamlen to stay but he refused (out of pride/remorse)#...this got long and i ran out of tag space lmfao so this is it for now xD

I’ve now seen the “would you eat lab-grown meat” poll twice, which means it is time to air one of my least charitable opinions---namely, I think imitation meat is an abomination. I could pretend this is for noble reasons (and I want to believe I have a couple in the mix) but truthfully its existence revolts and annoys me. It feels like a kind of hypocrisy; I mean, I’m sorry if you crave chicken wings for whatever reason? but you’re the one who gave up an omnivorous diet and refused to get creative with the foods left to you. Eat your cauliflower in buffalo sauce and shut up.

#there is a particular website that has a very very helpful list of which vegetables should go in vegetable stock - it's a great list!#unfortunately when you scroll down to mushrooms you are forced to read the sentence ''I eat a plant-based diet #so I don't touch mushrooms (fungi)'' and I swear the first time I read that I blacked out with rage and woke up six hours later #naked in the woods with an armful of maitake #and like....I understand wanting alternatives to something you can't eat! I get it!#(the eggs rolls fried in peanut oil are delicious right up until the allergy strikes)#but styrofoam in the shape of a burger patty feels like the wrong way to go #tw food #no love sincerer than the love of food

Bought a Paimon plushy today🥰🥰🥰! But I also bought some other stuff on the side and later realised something unintentionally funny about the combo-

It looks like Im gonna eat Paimon and deal with the quencies later 🤣😭😭😭

#echoes #genshin impact #paimon #she's the emergency food akshdhahgdga #also just for context the laoganma and antacid were just to stock up for the house #and me getting the paimon plush was because i saw it in the shop last time #and promised myself that if i went back later and she's still there #im getting it #and so i finally did today yayyy

Babygirl I can concieve of stephcass dynamics you couldn't even imagine (arospec Cass not understanding why "probably bi but has a job so she doesn't have time to think about that" Steph apparently needs a man (she doesn't, it would just be nice) and doesn't want to platonically settle down with cass in their old age)

#ramblings of a lunatic #dc comics #stephcass #another sure to be no-notes banger #anyway I think steph and cass are both very. meh on labels #like i said Steph has a job (in my heart it's retail or like a fast food joint or something but in canon its just being batgirl/spoiler)#so she's not thinking about that rn #and cass was raised so outside of conventional society that she. technically understands why ppl want labels for things #but when you grow up in essentially a few rooms with just you and one other guy 90% of the time it just feels unnecessary in her heart #likewise she was raised so far from conventional romance and has such strong emotions about those she cares about #that she's just. not that interested in delineating romantic vs platonic feelings. She Likes You. Deal w/ it #steph on the other hand. oh boy steph #I'm not gonna say comphet I genuinely think she was deeply madly in love w/ tim and that's important to her character #but at the same time she's so. she's so #steph puts a lot of stock in her romantic relationships bc shes on a perpetual quest for connection and to be seen and appreciated #but. at the same time. she resents that part of her i think (at least early spoiler characterization does?-#-local girl desperately wants your approval and would rather be waterboarded than admit that to herself bc that's embarrassing)#so she's just kinda. acting like she's in it for the fun of it but that girl is searching for a soulmate #i genuinely think pre break-up she thought tim was the guy she was gonna marry. not consciously but if it were anyone it'd be him #and the whole ''married with kids'' thing IS something i think she wants. not every female character wants to be married/a mom #but Stephanie does imo #(also lets not even get into how much her breakup with tim SHOULD'VE effected her considering how it went down-#-and how that was never really gone into besides being hinted at in batgirls and kinda. dismissed in Tim's pride special-#-like on the one hand i get it bc of optics but on the other hands. he's really important to her! this should make her so much more upset!!#ahem. anyway #I'm not even the worlds biggest tim/stephanie guy i just think they're inch resting #and Cass. is close w/ Tim and Steph and should Get all of this since she's so adept at reading ppl #but like I said she's bad at categorizing platonic/romantic feelings in herself and doesn't totally Get it w/ steph #i should just write fic about this at this point these tags are too much

“Boss,” you stammer, slamming the door to the intelligence room behind you. “Bossbossbossbossboss.” It comes out sounding like one very, very long word as you practically catapult yourself into Unknown's arms.

He didn't ask you to do that, but he doesn't particularly mind— it seems like you know your place at Magenta: on his lap, where he can keep an eye on you and stop you from wreaking whatever havoc you've got your heart set on at the moment. “What is it?” He asks, expecting more of the same nonsense that you always try to serve him in moments such as this one.

“Okay, so, as you know, you told me to go find something useful to do and leave you alone,” you recount, “Presumably because you're doing something so horrible that you don't even want me to see it, which says an awful lot, considering all the shit you've let me see already.” You're not entirely wrong there, but Unknown doesn't bother letting you know. You can press as much as you want, but he's never going to give you any more information than he sees fit.

“Yes,” Unknown agrees instead, nebulously allowing you to fill in the blanks for yourself. A month ago, he would have been certain that you'd make up some nonsense and be wrong about it, but he has learned that it's better not to underestimate you. His assistant is many things, but stupid is not one of them. Unobservant, perhaps. Dependent, of course. Annoying, even— but never stupid.

“Right,” you shake your head, before promptly nestling into his embrace as if you're seeking comfort. You're wildly misguided if you think you're going to get it from him— but, then, Unknown doesn't need to tell you that. “Well, anyway. So I thought, why don't I clean the water heater?”

“What water heater?” Unknown has never seen anything like that during his time at Magenta, and he's spent quite a while here.

“It's in the basement,” you wave him off, like it means nothing that you went down there without his permission. “There's this little door, and it's blocked with this cart thing, so I unblocked it, and then there's this tiny room with just this water heater that's like, well, you know, it heats water— anyway, it takes up half the room, and—”

“Did I tell you to go down there?” Unknown tightens his grip on you. If you'd been in the basement at the wrong time, you could have seen something much worse than what would have been on his screen had you stayed by his side. And the fact that you knew enough about the water heater to think of cleaning it suggests that you’ve been down there before and seen it already— he isn’t pleased with this development. Does he really have to keep an eye on you all the time to stop you from causing trouble?

“You said to be useful,” you counter, “And I was being useful.”

Unknown groans. “Then what's the matter?” He has no idea what you saw or who you ran into. The basement is not a pretty place, after all, and you’re quite timid, all things considered. If he wanted you to go down there, then he would have sent you himself.

“I saw a bug!” You squeal, dramatic as always. “And it was terrifying. Comfort me.”

It irks him that you think you get to give him orders, but nevertheless, Unknown heaves a sigh of relief. He can't believe he was ever actually that worried over his assistant— as if anyone in paradise would be enough of a fool to lay a hand on you. With the exception of the Savior, nobody around here would even think of trying something like that. And you wouldn't have stalled so long if anything had happened, anyway... you'd have called him to the scene immediately, and Unknown would have dealt with it on the spot. “That's it? You see bugs every day, prince(ss). I’m not going to coddle you every time.”

“Yes, but this one was technically in my home,” you protest with a shudder, “So it’s at least five times scarier. And it was huge— I think it was some kind of cockroach or something.”

“Hm.” Unknown considers this information. He doesn’t really follow, but he also doesn’t want to prolong this bug discussion any longer than he has to. It’s better if you just drop it and let him get back to work.

“Anyway, it ran in front of the water heater as soon as I opened the door,” you complain, “I don’t know how the hell it got in there, or if there’s others, or anything like that— I just slammed the door and blocked it again, and then ran back here as fast as I could to tell you that there's a bug by the water heater, which I did not clean. For your information.”

Unknown huffs. Honestly, he should have known better than to turn you loose in the first place. Even if he had explicitly told you to avoid the basement, you would have found a way down there anyway. You may be more clever than he originally gave you credit for, but that doesn’t seem to have much bearing on your listening skills, which have proven to be severely lacking.

“That's why we don't go sticking our nose where it doesn't belong,” he purrs, enjoying the way that you retreat entirely into his embrace, pressing your face against his chest. Yes, that's how it should be... you should depend on him, rely on him, revel in the feeling of his attention, his fingers in your hair or his lips against your ear. You should be his, wholly and completely, bending to his whims and changing your shape to fit inside of his grasp. That's the only way. “Just stay with me, assistant. I'll look after you, since you can't figure out how to do it yourself.” If your reaction to a single cockroach was so passionate, he can’t imagine what you would have done if you’d actually encountered something scary— but if he keeps you here, then neither one of you will ever have to find out.

“Sure,” your soft concession feels like a victory. Unknown just hums in response, returning to his work as you continue to cling to him. He won’t comfort you, of course, but he will allow himself to give you this.

#tw insects #This is heavily inspired by something I do at work lol #Any time they have too many people and can't find a task for me I go clean the water heater #It really is in a little room and since it's blocked off with stuff in dry stock it takes a long time to get to #I just love the idea of bringing my food service experience to the intelligence room #Anyway my fics will continue to get more and more specific #Since I am trying to post the 100+ drabbles that have accumulated in the vault #mystic messenger #mystic messenger drabble #choi saeran #saeran choi #unknown mystic messenger

I saw some of your posts earlier and just wanted to say it's alright, these are hard times and even harder events, the important thing is that you are trying

Your works brought me a smile on my face so many time and I hope that I can cheer you up even if just a little from all the time your words brighten my day, have a good day!

Thank you. I'm mostly hoping people can recognize that I'm doing my best to approach all this with a sense of ethics and consideration of implications. On this specific topic, I'm not trying to convince people that I know the correct answer, or even that they should agree with me, but rather to step back and think things over in ways they might not have before; there are a lot of lenses through which to view this, and many of those lenses have a vested interest in convincing people of their viewpoint.

It's what I've been trying to do, and why I've been willing to adjust my thinking on some things (see: that ask with a tiktok about Yemen). I think that if we are to have productive conversations on these things, we need to be willing to take that step back. Some of it might seem really obvious, but then it might be less obvious to other people, or it's something that only seems obvious because an element hasn't been taken into account...

There's something painfully destructive about getting told off for trying to do the learning and thinking that is key to being a better person and also to the activism we're hopefully trying to strive for.

(I'm also immediately suspicious of any post with a Specific Tone that seems geared to jumpstart my emotional outrage response so I skip the fact-checking. I do still get some of that fact-checking wrong, but I do at least try to do it. Sometimes I just don't reblog, but sometimes it's egregious enough, or at least seems egregious enough, that I just go off to rebuttal with what numbers and news I can locate. Sometimes I'm in the right, and sometimes I'm mistaken, but... it's better than consuming information without thinking to check it at all, right? And unfortunately, the posts that appeal to emotion are the most likely to make a person skip past the fact-checking stage.)

I'm glad you like my fics!

#leti-ke #personal #phoenix answers asks #I know I sound all woe-is-me and like I'm more focused on how people perceive me than the actual conflict #but I promise I'm actually doing things to help when I can. Mostly donations to food/med emergency aid groups #Tried to buy from that one factory still making the keffiyeh but they're out of stock each time

Christians: Nothing should be over the Lord! You should give your money to the church because it belongs to Him!

Me, deciding I love my cat more than Jesus:

#This is $66 worth of stuff btw #I got litter food odor remover toys and treats all for $66 dollars and it'll last months hopefully #I buy my cat's food and little in bulk that's why I prommy I'm not risking my livelihood for my cat #I bought 20lbs of food and like 50lbs of litter #I also bought his treats in bulk this time cause it's like 3 times as many treats for a few dollars less #wait no they were out of stock of the 50 so I got 40lbs #They also had a sale on toys so I got my cat new toys cause he rips thru his so quickly #so I buy him new ones when they're on sale #My roommate once bought him like a $7 bag of crinkle toys and he ripped into all of them within months #I sometimes buy him plush dog toys cause they're sturdier but he doesn't like them as much #he specifically likes ripping his toys apart #that or he respects Jewish tradition so much he refuses to rip up the Hanukkah dog toys I got him #since he's half Jewish on my found family's side #he only plays with the gelt piece but won't play with the dreidel or menorah plushies #I think cause it crinkles the most of the three. the other two are more squeaky and sturdy #n e ways I love u bulk sales my cat will be living in luxary no matter what #he will not know struggle a day in his life #thank u for reading my rambles about how much I love my cat he's a devious creature and my son #ex christian #religious trauma

I swear Sam Seaborn gets more autistic every time I watch the damn show

#also more gay #but thats another matter altogether #my boy is out here answering rhetorical questions #then apologising for it cos hes a sweetie too #and I mean Celestial Navigation!!!#the autism is showing #my dream for if Sam has stayed on the show would be seeing him get home from a long day with lots of meetings #and he has to stim a lot #so hes flapping his arms and reading and rereading some nerdy shit that no one else would think is relaxing #but it's his lil special interest so fuck them #also he has a boyfriend but again im off track #or like sam has a super busy time of it so Josh makes sure Sams office is well stocked with the only 4 foods he will eat #oh my love #sam seaborn #the west wing

My unorthodox Yangchunmian noodle soup/阳春面

(This is the reason why I was rendering lard lol)

Homestyle unorthodox Yangchunmian noodle soup recipe (enough for 1 person but must be served in a big ramen bowl) (Note: this version includes pork fat and is therefore not vegan/vegetarian/halal/kosher):

Ingredients (optional ones marked with *):

Noodles (preferably thin)

Egg

Soy sauce

Cooking oil

Pork lard (preferably rendered following the recipe that includes baijiu/green onions/ginger; if not, there are brands out there that can imitate the taste)

Pyropia seaweed (this is what nori is made from so unseasoned nori is also fine; also sold dried in giant discs)

*Wakame (brown kelp) OR Shanghai bok choy (stem is green instead of white) OR dried shiitaki mushrooms

Green onion

Chinese black vinegar (the one I used is Duliu Laocu/独流老醋, Zhenjiang Xiangcu/镇江香醋 is also fine)

Ground white pepper

Sugar

*Salt

Sesame oil

*Fish sauce/鱼露

*Chicken bouillon powder

Preparation:

Chop green onion, just one will do

Tear off a 2"x2" piece of pyropia seaweed OR 2 small pieces of nori

*If adding bok choy, wash bok choy

*If adding dried shiitaki mushrooms, rehydrate it first

In a ramen bowl, add:

~4 tbsp of soy sauce

~3/4 tsp of pork lard

~1 tsp of Chinese black vinegar

*A few drops of fish sauce

~1/2 tsp ground white pepper

~1/4 tsp sugar

*~1/4 tsp chicken bouillon powder

~1/2 tsp seasame oil

Pour just enough hot water to melt pork lard and combine everything together, mix well

In a sauce pan (at least 1.5 qt):

Turn on heat, set to medium

When pan is hot, rub the pyropia seaweed on the bottom of the pan a couple of times to mimic toasting, then put seaweed into ramen bowl

Pour a little cooking oil into pan, fry the egg until over hard

Add 5 cups of hot water into pan

Add noodles, *add bok choy

Let it cook

*When noodles are halfway done, add the vegetable (wakame/shiitaki mushroom) as desired

When noodles are done, pour everything into bowl, mix well with the soup base in the bowl

*Add salt as desired

Top with fresh chopped green onion and serve

The end product should taste mildly salty, mildly sour, and umami. Overall taste should be mild.

#the reason the soup looks more like the soup in ramen is because I fried the egg before boiling it with the noodles #frying anything before making soup out of it will make the soup more opaque #the traditional version uses homemade clear chicken stock but aint nobody got time for that #chinese cooking #chinese food #recipes #yangchunmian #阳春面

pre-canon spn to me is just Azazel having to show up to parent John’s kids for him so they don’t die a la the Maleficent movie until he starts feeling partial towards Sammy as his favorite of the special children

#spn #Azazel spn #I just like scenarios in which Azazel is stuck being sam & Dean’s weird Other Dad #he did not come here with the intention of getting this involved but here he is anyway #like to be clear I mean this in both the funny hijinks way of ‘ancient evil being has to deal with the mundane reality of childcare’#but I do also mean this in an evil ‘Azazel slowly insinuates himself into their lives in a way that is weirdly protective in the way that #someone would guard an expensive painting they bought. or an exotic pet.’ way #you know. sure he’ll possess a maid and stock the cupboards of their motel room with food.#he’ll also possess a cps agent long enough for John to smuggle the boys out of town so that they aren’t separated from him.#he picks out Sam’s prom date and specifically instructs the demon to make sure Sam has a fantastic time and he does and that makes it worse #when he can’t be there to watch them he has Meg on guard dog duty #John chases Azazel across the country. Azazel is right under his nose possessing some old lady who gives Sam & Dean bread to feed the ducks.#do you see my vision. do you see it. he’s always There #creepy fucker. I love him. I will make him do more fucked up things. <3

i actually preferred retail work to fast food by a long shot tbh. as hellish as some days were and how hard the holiday season was, since most retail is big box stores, you're treated quite fairly by most everyone you work for in terms of breaks, your general tasks being understandable, and while its a lot of busy work, you can go at your own pace for the most part, which was not my experience in fast food. you would have to offer me a huge check to get me to work in fast food again. throw me in front of a huge holiday checkout line any day.

#like obviously you're in a rush when in fast food all the time #but i mean even busy work tasks you were rushed for no reason #and then suddenly when there was nothing to do you're yelled at for completing your barely a few minutes worth of work in your 8hr shift #bullshit fr #at least i could stock slowly and walk around aimlessly looking for stuff to clean up and help my coworkers in their departments when bored #in retail
