pointless trivia of the day: I get annoyed when people refer to cats kneading on something as "making biscuits" because biscuits aren't like breads, and should under No Circumstances Be Kneaded

#it makes me wonder if 'biscuit' used to be used to refer to bread rolls because otherwise. why would this be.#that cat's about to make some fucked up tough and chewy biscuits in that case!! this cat's restaurant is going under.#''what are biscuits then'' they're pastry and pastry absolutely hates to be Touched #they also have little sheets of butter in the dough that you want to keep Whole so you are desperately trying not to melt the butter #w the body heat coming from your hands #they eat like a bread but they aren't yeasted and they aren't kneaded

So I bought this painting of the Cutty Sark in a charity shop for 50p. And on the back it’s got this placard - pretty cool, right? Obviously it’s staying

Obviously the frame is a little busted and it can’t hang but that’s a 10 minute fix.

So I remove the card first thing to save for later and —

It’s a fucking menu. And apparently a really fancy one - it got French words. I’m laughing my ass off because some guy cut out a description of the Cutty Sark from a restaurant menu and stuck it to the back of a painting of said ship. At this point I’m having a blast and joking that “Oh, what’s next, the painting itself is gonna be from the dessert menu, I bet!”

IT WAS THE FUCKING WINE MENU. And this has to be ancient because £1.25 for a bottle of wine?? 20p for a glass?!

So quite a few decades ago some guy stole a menu, took it home, then cut out the painting of The Cutty Sark and it’s description and framed it to presumably hang on their wall. And now it is in my home, on my mantle and whenever I have guests over they’ll go “Oh what a nice picture of a ship!” But they won’t know. Only I will know that it is in fact the front piece of a wine menu. Like. The process behind how this came to be.

I’m keeping this forever.

#I’m gonna treasure this the rest of my life #thought age of sail tumblr might get a kick out of this WEIRD but lovely and honestly hilarious find #that frame was being held together with tape I’m sorry it had to go tho #maybe I’ll paint this one so it’s not so. boring.#it was just a cheap thing from the store #holy shit #incredible find #how did they smuggle it out of the restaurant??#big coat?? hand bag? under their hat?#anyways #age of sail #age of steam #cutty sark #maritime art #(and it IS art)

quick poll, i'm curious and going insane

what would you estimate you spend each week on takeout + groceries? amounts in USD because i'm USAmerican

#amounts because $200-300 and $300-400 were the amounts people tossed around #and because small budgets seem more nuanced to me than large ones #feel free to comment infinitely nuanced answers tho #i'm not including under $25 because i don't know anyone currently on that budget #and i have no way of accounting for school meal plans/restaurant jobs/work cafeterias/consulting dinners or w/e here #this is about household groceries and personal takeout expenses #polls #reference #my polls #ghost speaks

aged up designs that i made a bit ago :))

#definitely could change these up a bit at any point #louise is my fav design of the three i’m especially happy about theirs #i would think that louise would still be working at the restaurant- probably not owning it yet or anything #emphasis on “yet’’#BUT i also think that cool careers for her could be a lawyer or ermm a guidance counselor #tee hee #tina is an author!! writes romance novels and such #STRANGE romance novels ofc but her readers have a fine taste #i think she could also possibly write stuff for kids at some point.. maybe under a different name lmao #i remember seeing a different headcannon for what her career would be and thinking it was cute but i can’t remember it rn grrr!!!!!#i’m not sure about gene but him alex and courtney could do music stuff together #maybe they have a successful soundcloud #also #i wanted to draw more jewelry on him but my brain wasn’t working #whatevr just imagine it ❤️#bob’s burgers #gene belcher #tina belcher #louise belcher #character design #mick draws #doodles

there's so many ~rules~ around fancy dinners, the courses, the silver you use, names for foods you might never have heard, and i imagine its far worse in orlais, where everything is over the top and meant to be seen and judged.

and josephine and leliana can navigate that fine, and depending on the inquisitor (especially trevelyans), i imagine they can handle themselves.

which leaves the last member of the leadership quartet, who spent the first 13 years of his life eating rural ferelden fare and then spent the next 16-17 years likely eating in mess halls between duties.

and how do you then represent the inquisition in a world where you are the outsider and everything about the world you are stepping foot in is meant to keep you and other commoners out? when this world is the one that plays with the lives of commoners like toys?

#cullen rutherford #commander cullen #dragon age inquisition #like i go to a fancy restaurant and im hiding my phone under the table looking up all the french-looking words #and thats humiliating as an adult but look im used to fried okra and grilled cheese and crockpot meals and diners #and thats in america where im ostensibly free to go to any restaurant i want to provided i have the cash #and even then i feel unwelcome #in thedas the nobility is actively trying to keep the non-nobles out of their sphere #they are actively hostile to upstarts. not all but plenty of them #cullen's hate for the nobility gets played off like a joke but honestly it deserves a deeper dive #he's the only common member of the advisers and if the inquisitor is a trevelyan the only common member of the leadership #leliana is a bard but also are YOU going to tell the nightingale she doesnt belong somewhere?#he's also ferelden and you know the orlesians are gonna be bitchy about that #but no in game its just 'cranky military guy hates politicians'#and YES this is part of why im obsessed with cullen and non-mage trevelyan #vultures and dragons

How I sleep knowing I'll never trust anyone that hates Sydney but worships Richie:

#the bear #the bear fx #sydney adamu #carmen berzatto #richie jerimovich #jk kind of #well on days I don't see or think about Sydney haters #under every damn comment section in this fandom is someone saying Sydney didn't take accountability #like I know we all have our biases but yall are really shameless about it #Sydney scored A LOT of Ws for The Beef AND The Bear #but one time she makes a mistake and justifiably walks away from a toxic work environment she's the devil #Richie worked at The Beef for years and Sydney did more for it in what less than four months than he did #on top of being a prick to Sydney in particular because she was changing things he wanted to keep the same #to the detriment of the restaurant but also everyone #and overall being unpleasant to Carmy #Nat and anyone that didn't find him funny or interesting or like his bs #pre-Forks Richie reminds me of those types of people that only listen to people that like them #and I love that because it's realistic to some ppl #I do like Richie #it just leaves a bitter taste in my mouth knowing there are people that hate Sydney #ignore her accomplishments only to raise up Richie #in the same breath when the actual show is showing you what's up #like you'd think there were different versions of the show with how these two are perceived #I get this weird need to defend Sydney when people shit on her because I wonder how often said people treat the Sydneys of the world #but that aside #In Fishes Richie mentions something about wasting potential at the beef #In Ceres it's implied he called the popo on the dealers after Sydney deescalated a situation Richie previously dealt with #in an unorthodox manner #he recognised he needed to change but still was an arsehole to the one person who was facilitating that change effectively Sydney #this show is great but people denying what they're seeing on their own screens is crazy

its so silly but i just keep thinking abt being in norway and seeing for the first time kinda ever that like governments can do things to make peoples life better. for no other reason but just to improve things. like im sure norway has lots of problems i didnt see on a trip but i cannot stress how insane it was that the government had done things because it would be nice. to take care of people. ?????

#tour guide like yeah the minimum wage is decent here its 220 NOK (roughly ovr $22) but its not perfect and literally evryone in our group #being like $22??!?!?!???!?!!? MINIMUM!??!??!!?#i keep thinking about taking the bus and trams in oslo :( and abt walking IN THE STREET in bergen wjthout getting run over #or the restaurant on top of the bergen funiculr mountain getting state owned this year bc it was mismanaged ans going under but #everyone would like there to be a restaurant there so the government just decided to make sure there would be one????#instead ofbjust letting it die???#or ALL THE OIL AND POWER BEING STATE OWNED. HELLO?#its just insane idk. that things can for real be different. where i am theres a revolutionary amt of public teansport for a not huge city #but its still basically one bus and then the slowest most fucked up train in the whole world (40min drive = 2.5 hours by train)#assuming uh thw train doesnt get stuck again lol #it mostly exists to take mormon missionaries to the airport i think lol.#the 'walkable' old town section still has 4 and 6 lane roads you have to cross every block.#i dont know its just... its. augh!!!!!!!!#birdenest #we told one guy the minimum wage for waitstaff was about 21 NOK and he didnt believe us and got upset that we were lying

thinking ex-sorcerer!sugu thoughts 😔

#he is so jaded and cynical <3333 #also grows a resting bitch face that turns into a customer service smile in two seconds flat #he doesn’t care what people think of him anymore so it’s fine if his smile isn’t convincing #……… i feel like he would work. at a restaurant #something something his karmic destiny is to devour but he chooses to cook for others instead #it keeps him sane #so anyway . i’m picturing you as someone with a cursed technique but zero knowledge of sorcerery because you slipped under the radar #and you . meet him. for a blind date #and he’s sooo easy to talk to and you’re having fun and letting yourself unwind #and you end up teasingly telling him that you can see ghosts. that you have since you were a kid. expecting him to laugh it off #but he gives you this odd knowing glance #and a weary smile #and goes #”ghosts huh?”#…….. i don’t know what happens from there i’m just obsessed w him #he’s a little bitch but i love him :’3 #ari noises ✩

this is my entire stance on the "american food is bad" discourse summed up

#there are two distinct times when american food is bad #when it's people who are well off or rich enough that all they care about is appearances and how expensive the ingredients are #bcs they don't care about taste anymore it's a status thing #and also when it's stupid gentrified gimmick restaurants basically following the Cesare from Big Top Burger formula #where it doesn't matter how it tastes #it's just about it looking cool or having a gimmick so influences will come take pictures and give you tons of free advertising #that's when american food is bad #bcs rip to y'all but I grew up dirt fucking poor around other dirt fucking poor people of all races and backgrounds #and we COULD cook y'all under the table with these things #when all you have for food is hamburger helper and canned soup well damn you learn how to make it taste good #also those two bad times are NOT unique to america AT ALL #remember the Australian fish and chips that had activated charcoal and looked like actual shit?#this ain't an american problem this is a fucking rich people problem send tweet #this is also why I can't watch chopped anymore #the way they talk about ingredients like those like they're worthless and they can't believe people would eat them #like cool glad you grew up well off enough to afford real people food #the rest of us had to learn to make velveeta taste good and you know what #I could cook your ass under the table with velveeta and all those other 'cheap' ingredients you're mocking

Thinking about kid Syd and kid Carmy spending an afternoon neither of them remember anymore playing under the tables of The Beef

#that instant connection kids can feel #carmy who was shy and had a hard time making friends #coming across this very sober girl who is with her sad dad #who lights up at the sight of the sandwich so he goes to tell her he also gets happy with the sandwiches #and then somehow they're playing restaurant (he's on the front and she's cooking) under the empty tables in the corner #and its forever but really just a couple hours #bc Syd's dad takes the opportunity to rest and matbe cry a little and he can tell the teenager at the till with the black hair is constantl #keeping an eye on the curly haired blue eyed white kid #Syd tells her all about her new friend on the way back glowing with the news #but the next day she's moved to a new thing and doesn't even ask after him next time they come into the beef #eventually Emmanuel forgets all about the quiet kid too #mmine #the bear #the bear fx #sydcarmy #sydney adamu #carmy berzatto #carmy x sydney

The Bear season 2 episode 6 is a cleaver to the chest. Maximum psychic and emotional damage. Yikes. Natalie and Carmen are actually surprisingly well adjusted people all things considered, Natalie especially. Made me actually re-evaluate my opinions concerning them. Donna Berzatto / Uncle Lee is a typhoon of dysfunction and Michael broke against it plus his own addictions and sank, but Natalie and Carm are still fighting and eking out an existence, wow. Thank God Natalie has Pete, the Berzattos need all the help they can get.

#those chaotic kitchen scene hit a little too close to home #yikes yikes yikes #yikes!#the bear #the bear fx #the bear season 2 #family get together from the 9th circle of hell #natalie berzatto #carmen berzatto #michael berzatto #donna berzatto #y'all were right all the actors gave 10/10 this episode damn smh #tw: verbal abuse #tw: alcoholism #tw: emotional abuse #tw: psychological abuse #ptsd in a meal is what that dinner was good god #*no wonder carmen was so quick to off-load so much responsibilities concerning the restaurant on sydney since s1 till now in s2 #he's BEEN buckling under the stress of his own issues- selling off his clothes etc. He must've felt like he finally got tossed a lifeline

thursdays are meaningful again (magnus protocol)

#babble #im having a good time #purpoesfully avoided like everything possible until listening to it. 0 expectations. big fan of colin and ive worked with alices. id love t #pick apart how in two episodes her verbal approach to work is established but i dont have the spoons. shes not just anti capitalist shes.#shes like a teenager about it. how do i explain that better #complaining and continuing on because the idea of The Great Chain is immutable to her and she comforts herself with platitudes and thinking #of things unseriously? which is normal. not ideal but normal. its a coping mechanism with living under capitalism #and putting sam between her. serious gwen. and colin off like. eating a keyboard and weeping in his spare time. i like it #i wouldnt be surprised if sam and alice broke up because of her unseriousness but i like her so much.ive been her.#she and colin work at the same chain restaurant shes on register colin is a dishwasher and their bond is unbreakable. to me #bit unsure if any of this makes sense. eh.#tmagp

headcanon for sydcarmy that I've had for months now that i was reminded of rewatching Fools Rush In yesterday (rip Matthew Perry) and reading @ambeauty 's new fanfic.

i love the unplanned pregnancy trope with them and also the idea that they would do every milestone backwards or hit them super fast in terms of their relationship. hear me out

what i love about sydney and carmy is how intense they are about each other while not knowing each other for that long. carmy spends braciole acting like a heartbroken widower and ends the episode by planning on revamping his family restaurant with a girl he's only known for a couple months. the restaurant dream he thought died with his brother, the person he loved the most (woah). while sydney is her most emotionally vulnerable with a guy she barely knows (and physically too, i.e the hug after the fire suppression test and the table scene) and constantly gives him second chances when he doesn't deserve them.

they are weird and intense about each other even with all these platonic and professional boundaries they put in place.

in my mind that is rotting from tumblr and ao3, when those boundaries disappear they will do the relationship shit on speed drive. oops they get pregnant after a few months of dating or a situationship. whats having a baby when you have a restaurant? they are already the mom and dad of the bear!

they would elope randomly on a tuesday afternoon after dating for a couple months bc they practically eat sleep live and breathe each other every single day anyways? carmy tells syd he doesn't want to wait when he already knows she's it for him. syd says he's crazy but she may just be crazier for agreeing (also grew up with hearing her parents love story who got married super young and fast so why cant she?)

oh they just started dating a few days ago? syd moves in or they start looking for new places. shes already here all the time when they menu plan. carmy already buys her fave snacks, subscribes to a couple streaming services for the first time bc syd loves to binge-watch shows, and has a couple of her scarves laying around.

and i love that this could go really bad, how intense and how much they love each other (bc im an angst enjoyer) or most likely really great bc these two losers want to practically live in each other's skin and make each other better.

side note: after watching fools rush in again...need a sydcarmy au bc the premise of two people from different cultures, values and perspectives foolishly rushing into a big thing like opening a restaurant having a baby is so them!

#the bear #sydcarmy #sydney x carmy #no no like hear me out #the berzattos are rich and affluent family who own a chain of fine dining restaurants all around the world and carmy has to go back #to chicago to open up another where he meets sydney #they have a one night stand syd runs off after and come back after 3 months bc shes pregnant!#i think a lot of the story would have to be changed in this fic since their personalities are different from alex and isobel but it can wor #....i have ideas #alex and isobel also elope in the movie they get married at one of those elvis chapels dksfhksfj #everyone should watch this movie its underated and matthew is hilarious

AND YOURE LOOKING AT HER LIKE THAT?? LIKE YOU NEED TO STAND UP!!#they are very unserious ppl #sydcarmy

Loving the idea of kmhn resolving their romantic tension alone and when nobody else is looking just because i want to imagine them the next day being lovey dovey or flustered around each other and everyone else being confused as hell

#they're having their rivalry yknow the casual arguing and stuff and they walk out of everyone's sight #and the next day theyre at the restaurant holding hands under the table cheeks pink nervous smiles #and everyone else is like wait wh. what #komahina #it would be hilarious
