I’ve discovered the one way to make matcha palatable to me in a drink: having lavender milk and mango boba with it
#cloud speaks#I’ve wanted to like matcha for years but I can’t hack it on its own#just doesn’t taste good to me#but I made an expensive if tasty discovery today

wow I didn’t think reblogging that tea post and then seeing people’s tags would deal me such strong psychic damage. come over I can fix you I can find a tea you will like. “I don’t like tea” how can you say that as a blanket statement when there are so many vastly different kinds of tea. head in hands
#‘it’s like coffee but not good’#while a cup of black tea does have a great deal less caffeine in it than coffee#it also has a stimulant called l-theanine which is NOT found in coffee#and the more complex combination of the two stimulants hit your system much more slowly#which is why tea doesn’t give you jitters like coffee does#anyone who’s like wow I need my coffee to survive but I hate that it makes me nauseous and gives me heart palpitations and bad breath#to you I say. wean yourself off coffee and onto tea!!!!!!!#but WAIT I can keep going. nauseous? ginger tea. sore throat? peppermint contains menthol which works as a numbing agent#green and black teas are both very high in antioxidants#chamomile and lavender do both have a calming affect#BUT WHAT ABOUT THE TASTE I hear you say#IT TASTES LIKE GRASS. try a floral tea or a black tea or chai or Thai tea#ITS SO BITTER you’re either steeping it for too long or the water you’re using is too hot#not to sound like I’m fucking uncle iroh or something I just apparnerlt have strong thoughts and feelings about tea#I can’t handle ppl going ugh I hate tea and it’s like. overbrewed lipton in microwaved tap water.#anyway MY favorites are jasmine and lavender earl grey#and currently I’m really into this corn silk tea my brother bought me at h mart#it’s like gen mai cha but even more#congrats for making it this far into my tea rant tags. if you comment your tastes I can give you a personalized tea recommendation

Maybe a Christian fiction writer just needs to tell the truth. Then tell a better truth.
#Yes it is a broken world! That is true! But a) brokenness doesn’t come in only one flavor (and for that matter neither does escapism#There are things I rather like to get away from in my preferred fiction#Like I’ll tolerate some of the things I like to get away from as long as the author doesn’t wallow in it before getting to the better truth#b) In this world you will have trouble#Doesn’t help me without#But take heart! I have overcome the world#And c) That the breaking will be mended in the end we Christians know and it’s at the heart of every really good story I believe*#but what of this often wildly beautiful in-between time called life that we currently experience? It’s still true too.#Taste and see that the Lord is good!#“Pine trees are just as real as pigsties and a darn sight prettier too”#*some may say that tragedies are the category that negate this idea and it’s true I haven't made a study of tragedies and what their#appeal is because they don’t often appeal to me but I’m sure there’s a reason#If only because light shines brighter in the darkness#So to circle back to my first point yes some stories need to not shy away from darkness but if it ends there you have to consider what#The point of it all is and whether it glorifies God. so it’s not as simple as no tragedies but I think you have to at least imply the#Better Truths#Anyway now I’m just rambling and people who like tragedies should come educate me on why#But the idea of telling the truth and then telling a better truth has been percolating for at least a month now and so I must now test#the brew so to speak

Attempting to convince my mom to let me bring a new mac and cheese recipe for thanksgiving. Wish me luck
#I understand that new recipes are A Big Deal for southern families with holiday foods#but I just think that I’ve found a good one and everyone should be openminded!!!#‘but why would you change the one we always have’#well you see. I enjoy it when my food tastes.#and I think everyone else would too if you’d just trust me and my lack of measuring spoons.#I always make the pies. and when my grandmother watches me make the pies she complains about the amount of spices I add.#but when she doesn’t watch me put in a fuckton of spices??? when she has no idea???#best pie she’s ever had. she loves it.#people need to TRUST ME and just not worry about what I’m doing in the kitchen#unless I set a potholder on fire. which did happen once. then they can worry about it.#but do not watch me or police my recipes and spice amounts. go away 💫#‘but that’s too much-‘ WRONG. it is not enough

Once saw a post from someone whining about when Ragatha isn’t drawn with curves and it disappointingly had a lot of traction and fans agreeing and every now and then I think about it and am like What
It’s ok to let a female character be flat. It’s ok to like a female character with a flat ass even lol.
People will complain about non-diverse body types when it comes to female characters but then turn around and do shit like that with her when given non-conventional designs.
Pomni’s shoulders are wider than her hips. Ragatha is as flat as a board. Gangle. It’s okay to still like them like this god.
Let female characters be cartoony. Let them be proportionally funny.
#it’s like the same issues with Pearl SU and Squigly Skullgirls goddd#it pisses me off#please note that if you want to make characters like this that is fine everyone has tastes#but to take an existing character who doesn’t have a bust and then be like why doesn’t she have a bust? and give her a big bust#and then also claim is better or the preferable option#like what are you doing#the thing that got me about the tweet was just how many fans and retweets it had#like one or two having this mentality is whatever#but a good amount??? like I thought we were moving on from this#people complain when that shit is done with Gangle why not with the other women#and while Zooble isn’t a female character the amount of people who draw them with a more curvous form is lmaoooo

I’ve been trying to put my finger on what’s been bothering me about all the backlash against the new masks, and I think it pretty much boils down to this —
Sleep Token: We’re a masked metal band with a creepy eldritch horror theme! Isn’t that fun?
Fans: Yeah!
Sleep Token: Great! Now we’re gonna wear masks that actually look creepy, like something out of a horror movie!
A shocking amount of fans: Uhhh…. No, not like that, this clearly isn’t your correct aesthetic, which we obviously understand better than you yourselves. Go back to the sleek minimalist look that we thought was hot
#im not even 100% into the new looks personally#i really like iii’s whole vibe and iv’s jacket but iv’s and ii’s masks are kinda meh for me#but that’s just personal taste#we’re all allowed to not totally love an artistic decision based on our own preference. doesn’t mean the decision was objectively wrong#and people saying they’re gonna stop listening to their music over this??#tell me you only liked them bc you thought they were (or could be) hot w the faceless masks#without telling me#and now they look spooky and have personality and aren’t as easy to be attracted to#so ur jumping ship on the whole project. ok cool good riddance#sleep token#bella rambles#honestly they’re so much more camp now and i do love that aspect of it

Thor: your food tastes horrible, what have you done to your natural produce
Tony: I order in from Iraq to feel something
#Steve: yes bananas taste bland now but I assumed it was because of pollution#Natasha: someone needs to educate you on what’s been going on with everything in the quarter century you missed. not me tho#Steve: please understand that is a lot of stuff to learn#Clint: just order some pizza in and put on a selective breeding documentary#Loki pulling up a map like where is that on the planet#Tony pointing at different countries like ‘and I get X from here when I can. Y has organic dried herbs that are good. Z for almonds’#Thor horrified like why does it have to come from so far away to be good#Bruce like hey doesn’t your realm import stuff from other entire planets#Thor: that’s completely different#Clint: it’s called sharing. it’s how pizza and coffee came about

there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having previously identified with a lot of microlabels only to have realized those weren’t for you and only identifying as one or two things now, but if you list out all the microlabels you used to go by and have the punchline be “oh isn’t it CRAZY i identified as SO MANY things lol 🤪 i was so WEIRD and CRINGE back then 🤣” i am blowing you up with my mind
#icarus speaks#neg#discourse#SHUT THE FUCK UP#first of all. let people explore. there’s nothing wrong with hoarding labels. if it makes them feel comfortable who gives a fuck#second of all. who gives a fuck.#who is being harmed by someone identifying as a pangender androgynous demisexual grayromantic lesbian. tell me.#who gives a fuck. let people live their lives. just because it’s not for you doesn’t mean you have to be a dick about it#i used to like spinach but now i don’t and you don’t see me throwing a hissy fit over it#did you get it? did you get the cishet validation you’re desperately craving?#how do those boots taste huh? do they taste good?

Sighs so incredibly loudly
#꒰🥀꒱ ❝ Tragic Prose ❞#okay listen here’s the thing. I’ve been trying very hard to make the whole ‘me and my longtime partner broke up’ thing stay private#because 1.) it doesn’t have much place in the public eye and 2.) I don’t want anyone to get the wrong idea and start harassing my ex#but eh… I’ll vent about it a little just this once#something I didn’t realize I’d take for granted was how my ex had basically the same taste as me#well. not down to a T but we had a lot of mutual interests and they’d be really supportive of my new crushes no matter how weird#now all of THAT is out the window I’m a bit too scared to talk about my more out-there F/Os#I know realistically you guys wouldn’t actually make fun of me but I am perpetually scared of scaring the hoes#so uh. Sorry#I realize this is kind of a milquetoast thing to whine about considering I’m talking about a fucking BREAK UP#but let’s be real if I ACTUALLY went on about the ‘oh no I miss them so much I’m nothing without them I’m a horrible person’#> shtick I’ve been thinking about for days now you guys would be sick and tired of me by now#anyways. good morning nothing like venting to start your day right

had two (2) drinks last night and my tummy hurt then and I’m having a bad day today so I think maybe I’m just not built for alcohol really
#blue chatter#I’ve only ever had one drink at a time before#and been p much fine besides maybe not liking the taste and feeling a bit dehydrated#but my roommate was celebrating finally having a day off (they’ve been working 2 weeks straight) by ‘getting drunk and watching 30 rock’#and I had two drinks. which tasted good! but gave me a tummyache. and 2 drinks super did not feel different than 1 otherwise.#I have a lotta body mass and a good amount of it is fat so it makes sense that I don’t get drunk or even tipsy from that#but yeah. today I woke up and my nerves were Mad At Me so I think alcohol just doesn’t mix well with my fibro#and all the extra pain is not super. worth it. so I think in the future I’m not gonna have more than one.

“you never go out w the rest of us” yeah no shit cause you keep picking places with beer and wine exclusively. i like neither
#see I want to be social. I want to go out with the other teachers but#I’m not gonna get a drink that I don’t like and don’t want to drink#I’m not about to waste money#So I’d rather just not go#Go somewhere where they have something else#txt#we had white and red wine with dinner today#At the Parliament and I tried both I know I don’t like them. It’s not like I hate.#But I genuinely cannot taste the difference#Between red and white wine and apparently the wines we were served were pretty good#I could not tell why is why to me it all tastes the same#And it doesn’t taste particularly good

Mmmm

trying to make a character playlist when i have barely listened to music lately…agonizing experience tbh. i NEED a soundtrack for imagining nico in situations!!! anyway check our my latte art from today this is my best so far ^_^
#.txt#i still need to work on getting the color contrasts all nice but it came out soooo pretty#tbh at this point my main struggle is that my stems? i guess you would call them#are always wayyy too thick rather than a nice thin line. but we are getting there!!#shoutout to coworker hayden for actually trying to teach me unlike how my coworkers at my old job were just like ‘idk i just do it’#i love u making coffee i love u making lattes i love u learning about coffee tasting notes and dialing in espresso#and figuring out how to correct it when it doesn’t come out good and adjusting the grind and time#I LOVE U COFFEE!!!!!!

In honour of finishing my exam and being five days away from freedom (for a few days), I bought myself an iced banana matcha and a three pack of kinder eggs. Bc you gotta treat yourself
#summer has been hard but it’s been ages since I had Macha or a kinder eggs so we ball#I have other work to do today so sadly I can’t do my semi planned Star Trek movie marathon like I wanted but#we are going to chill for a bit#truly next week is going to be my one week of actual summer#as opposed to whatever bad brain stress summer the last few months have been#I mean I’m being dramatic. I had fun and spent time with friends and it wasn’t all bad#but also the stress- XHEHE#shut up sarah#also the aforementioned Macha is gunna be a fun game. It’s been awhile. p sure it doesn’t have enough caffeine to make me anxious but. we’re#drinking it slowly just in case- it’s so good tho. it was a good barista there this time. this drink tastes different depending on who makes#it and this person was on point with it
