Edit: pattern is linked here! Note that the pattern uses a pink for the cloth around the Big Naturals but I switched it to DMC159 because it looked too flesh-colored

So bachelor in Finnish is just “boyman” (poikamies)? That’s hilarious. So you can say “Sä oot niin poikamies”. (“You’re such a boyman.”)

The apartment in which a single man lives is a poikamiesboksi, a boy man box.

Ah, but let’s not forget bachelorette: rather than being the logical tyttönainen (girl woman), it is poikamiestyttö (boy man girl).

There was a young man from Peru

Whose limericks stopped at line two

There once was a man from Verdun

There once was a man from the sticks
Whose limericks stopped at line six.
They were fine till line five
Then they took quite a dive —
But the problem is easy to fix
If you just ignore the last line, it doesn’t even follow the rhyme scheme oh god I’ve really lost control of this thing I’m so sorry…

There once was a man

From Cork who got limericks

And haiku confused.

There once was a man from the sticks

Who liked to compose limericks

But he failed at the sport

Because he wrote them too short

@limerickshere

There once was a fellow named Dan,
Whose poetry never would scan.
When told this was so,
He replied, “Yes, I know–
It’s because I try to squeeze as many syllables into the last line as I possibly can.”

On Tumblr did lasses and lads
Their way with fail poetry had.
You’re having your fun
But you’re fooling no one -
It takes skill to do something this bad.

extremely spicy spider encounter

okay now that im off work i need to talk up this insane spider.

NOT ONLY is she the biggest black widow ive ever seen, NOT ONLY did she survive hours, possibly days inside a robot plasma cutter (A DEVICE FOR CUTTING APART BIGHUGE I-BEAMS VIA HELL MAGIC), not only did she survive several rounds of me flinging the sharp heavy scraps in the hopper all over the place as i jumped in and out, but she managed to get picked up, alive and well, by the one single man in this factory who would see a black widow spider threateningly wave her legs while perched extremely close to a split in his work glove, the one guy who would go ‘ah! that’s a gigantic venomous spider!’ and gently set her down to take glamour shots.

after that insane run of absolutely baffling good luck, i figured god clearly liked her more than anyone else i have ever met so i delicately carried this holy saint of a spider out to the bushes where, let’s all pray, she concludes her business here on earth without any more human intervention.

anyway shout out to this miracle spider, divine incarnation of getting lucky.

Oh my god Wisconsin’s governor just used a line item veto to secure school funding increases every year through 2425. He struck out a line so it now reads “through the 2023-2425 school year”. He’s allowed to do this lol

Coastal Dems: now we can’t go too far now haha, we can’t. We’ve got to be reasonable, you know, also eight of us might defect to the Republicans if you’re mean to us

Hey tumblr. Are you trying to learn to cook for yourself? I sure am. My roommate just got me this book and I am totally blown away — it’s an entire cooking course in one book easy and accessible, taking you from following recipes to making up your own by teaching you the science behind it all. Do you love science? I love science. I especially love DIAGRAMS!

You can’t quite see it, but this tells you not just what parts to eat, but how to prepare it. I’m always in grocery stores staring at veg going “okay but what do I DO with it?” and this book actually answers that in clear, simple language and beautiful watercolours.

What’s the difference when recipes call for different types of frying? Hey, I guess I know now!

Illustrations instead of photos encourage you to play around instead of trying to get the exact same result.

Samin Nosrat, the author, is incredibly personable along with being a great writer and chef. The prose parts of the book are clearly worded and full of personality. It explains details of cooking that lots of other cookbooks leave out, meaning a intermediate cook like me can actually grasp skills like breaking down a whole chicken or getting the heart out of fresh artichokes. 

The first half of the book is meant to be read straight through and explains the theory behind the elements of food in a casual writing style. Then it has 100 recipes that are meant to teach you all the basic skills and are a jumping-off point, because what she really wants you to do is EXPERIMENT! I can’t wait to eat a bunch of this stuff.

I don’t know about you, but I failed to learn cooking from my mom even though she’s a great cook. I regret it now and want to learn to be comfortable in the kitchen, because I love eating and I want to take back control of the food I eat. When I got this book, the first random page I flipped to had a matrix explaining what works well with avocado. I knew right away it was going to be my kind of book. (I ended up staying up late reading it.)

So if you’re also trying to learn to cook, to take back control of what you eat, want a really pretty illustrated cookbook, whatever — I can’t recommend this enough.
