Fun Animal Facts

Japanese Spider Crabs exist and they are after your left index finger

I remember discussing Tintin casting choices with a friend from Germany and remarked how it was odd he often has an English accent in adaptations rather than a Belgian one, and my friend just replied "that's because Tintin gives incredibly strong English boy energy (derogatory)"

Here in the UK there's a lot of weird classism tied into accents. Today accent diversity and representation in broadcasting is actively pursued but in Tintin's time there certainly was a preferred accent to have.

imagine this exchange happens between pages 28-29 in The Crab with the Golden Claws

boys! it's my birthday! what would you cook up for a birthday boy eager to eat whatever some handsome bots can whip up? no dietary restrictions, anything the wonderful chefs can think of :D

ough happy belated birthday, Bash!

the boys have prepared a birthday meal for you:

some details on the menu:

the longevity noodles egg noodles that are commonly eaten in Chinese cuisine for celebrations and birthdays. it's often called "birthday noodles" for that reason. they are long noodles to symbolize a long life, so it's recommended to not cut them shorter. they are often served with eggs, that symbolize birth. they can be eaten in soup or stir fried or with a sauce.

the fairy french toast is a fusion of Australian fairy bread (white bread spread with butter/margarine and covered with colourful, round sprinkles) and Hong Kong style french toast (two egg-fried toasts, sandwiching a sweet filling like peanut butter, jam, condensed milk, etc.) fairy bread is a common treat at children's parties, and french toast is a staple at Hong Kong cafes.

the longevity peach ice cream float is a peach soda topped with peach soft-serve ice cream and a mini longevity peach bun. longevity peach buns are based off the peaches of immortality in Chinese mythology. the buns are served at birthdays (especially for the elderly) and are usually filled with lotus paste or red bean paste.

started playing fallen london cause of your blog and i absolutely love it! Thank u :)

Excellent!!! If I have any power, let it be used to get people to play fallen london and its related games (sunless seas, sunless skies = Survival exploration, mask of the rose = visual novel)

I’ve only gotten like third-hand accounts of this book but apparently there’s a scene where they have the Worst Beach Day Ever and discover crabs and seagulls and someone steals a guy’s sandwich. I’m just imagining them being like “that was fucking weird, right? This trip is so weird what the HELL IS THAT THING”

Ah, the Koolabi Mandated Shenanigans Segment. We get one in every traveling story these days.

Catmint Trip = Nightheart's Carnival Chicken

Riverstar's Home = Shopping Mall Elevator Chase

Park Cat Pilgrimmage = Nightheart's Pool Party

Ivypool's Heart = Average British Beach Experience

I might actually call in sick just to crochet your patches if you dropped crustaceans set..

Sounds like a plan! Until then, here's anti-work crab and woodlouse

More Monkees screenshot redraws of "Yellow Submarine" but this one was so funny for no reason (other versions and original under the cut)

[dragons-in-spaceee]

Calling your lab partner silly nicknames just to annoy him is all fun and games until you refer to him as “hermit crab” in front of the Big Boss…

[thelesbiandeli]

“Yeah, I really like Team Starkid,”

“Oh, me too! What’s your favourite show?”

“The one where Lauren Lopez has the fire.”

“Firebringer! Yeah, I love that one too-”

“No.”

Your have you eaten boys keep cooking for us, I want to cook for them!

It may not be nearly as skillful as what they can make but hopefully they’ll still enjoy what I’ve made!

Oh wait… they can’t eat.

But they can still taste! Hopefully they’ll still enjoy the food!

I’ve made my specialties! Pot roast, and banana cream pie!

(I went looking for actual photos of the last time I made these and I could only find a photo of the last time I made hot and sour soup. I get so caught up in getting to eat the food I forget to take pictures! But here’s that soup photo just for fun.)

OUGH thank you so much for sharing your cooking, Robin!! these look SUPER yummy and the boys would love it. they are able to eat too, so they'd happily enjoy your cooking 🥰
