This, plus parents and teachers yelling at me for getting frustrated so early in the process. As a kid I was literally told I was “stupid and selfish” for expecting to quickly become good at something (jumping rope). At the same time as I was told I was “mentally r***ed” for not learning other things quickly enough (algebra).

I love fresh radishes. I’ve often been called a weirdo for that. But they’re so… edible. Colorful, crunchy, flavorful. Even the spicy ones are good in a wasabi-spicy kind of way, excellent for clearing your nose!

This might be a long shot but have you tried fresh (as in not frozen) whole blueberries in a bowl of milk? It’s one of those things that sounds super weird until you try it. I have no idea how it happens, but the milk brings out a great sweet flavor from the bloobs. And as you eat it, that flavor gets concentrated, so the last few spoonfuls are the BEST.

I haven’t seen this much wholesome, genuine passion on the intertubez in a very long time. Three cheers for Lemmy’s very own Owl Ambassador! 🫡

We have an ethnic dish that’s basically mushrooms and chicken meat simmered in a thick white sauce, with optional sour cream.

As a child, I gagged and retched every time my grandma was cooking it. The smell was indescribably awful to me, like if she were cooking rotting garbage. I could barely bring myself to taste it.

Now it’s one of my favorite meals. I make it with any variety of Agaricus bisporus. Maybe it’s because my grandma used different species of mushrooms? Who knows what was sold at farmer’s markets in Eastern Europe in the 90s…

That’s insulting to children. They run Model UN better than this.

We already do. It’s all grey, greige, white, off-white. If feeling adventurous, add taupe accents and light wood. “Soothing” my ass, it all gives mental institute vibes.

Please share, so we can live vicariously through you.

Hear hear. Half my job is helping people and doing creative stuff, which I love. The other half is the most boring drudgery of paperwork I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve literally procrastinated all week on paperwork that is due today in less than 8 hours. Fml.

I love how his brush strokes are so precise but at the same time loose and stylized. I’m also surprised to see the “Tumblr blush” in use so early!

That looks more like spina bifida.

You’ve heard of the elephant in the room, but what about the crocodile on the doorway?

The formula starts with CH, which means the universe is organic.

And our electricity.

I’m in a GIS-adjacent field and I’m delighted to see both my home (#9) and my office (#13) setups represented!

When even North Korea has more common sense…

I want you to know that I spent about five minutes looking at this through a flood of memories and emotions. Thank you for posting this ancient relic.

This is the 21st century version of Manifest Destiny. Their immigrant status doesn’t matter because they’re white and therefore superior.
