#meal center

[boredwithmythoughts]

I think that when people say "you just need to learn to cook one meal" is unintentionally misleading.

You should learn to cook one type of *protein*.

It doesn't matter if it is chicken, beef, pork, or even Tofu, learn to cook it, learn how it can be cooked properly and well, how it can be seasoned... Learn a type of meal center and the rest doesn't matter. You can always open a can of veggies or something as a side.

Once you learn how a certain protein can be cooked properly, you'll find you can cook it in many different ways, giving you atleast a variety of dinners and meals.

That's what you should strive for not just making one "dish", but a center for a meal.

Was forced to watch a truly incredible (derogatory) thing recently.

A young person on twitter, adamant that transandrophobia doesn't exist on the grounds that 'no one is killing/raping/assaulting trans men'.

Several people responded, including some linking articles about murders and assaults on trans men and a couple op-ed style pieces of trans men talking about their own experiences.

Said young person responded with "I'm not reading those its triggering and I'm a minor"

So let me see if I've got this correct, you are knowingly refuse to acknowledge reality because it's upsetting to you and then you're going to turn around and deny that very reality because you refuse to acknowledge it because it's upsetting?

There will not be a single moment next week in which I’m not running around doing something

idk it sounds reasonable to me for a teenager to run away bc they didn't want to eat their veggies!

one hopes that by the later stages of childhood a parent will have figured out which veggies and preparation styles work for the kid, and the kid will have resigned themself to what they do and don't have to eat according to their parents, and it's all settled into an equilibrium instead of a daily fight. and hopefully as a teen your palette is expanding and you're even willing to eat more veggies then you did as a child.

however, if the kid is extra picky and stubborn, and the parent is extra determined to make sure they eat a good variety (or just eat whatever the parent prepared no matter what it is), it could absolutely continue to be a regularly-repeated fight. and if something is a continued point of contention throughout childhood then it absolutely makes sense for a teen to go FUCK this, i am nearly an ADULT i am done being told to eat my veggies i am gonna prove my independence and make them realize i don't have to just sit there and let them boss me around!!

like, the childishness of the fight is exactly why a teen would run away about it.

you mentioned in the tags of your prankster Leshy post of a "little evil Lamb idea".

It's not yet another "the Lamb tortures the bishops for eternity" au, right? /gen

Welllllll, while I havent thought too much of how they’d treat the bishops too much yet…

Meet little Indulgence!Lamb!!!

In all honesty, i was originally gonna just have this version of lamb for like a little comic idea i had. But then, broski kinda just started growing on me, so here we are!

The summarized lore of this lamb is that they were originally part of a herd that was in Anura. But, as soon as famine hit cuz of the bishops trying to weed them out, lamb kinda had to resort to extreme measures to survive ( aka cannibalism).

When they got sent to the axe though, they were still starving and died hungry. Now they’re just using this second chance as a way to satiate their endless hunger, be it the enemies in their way, or the followers at their mercy.

an archeological hymn to Hestia

Before foundations were laid below you or roof raised above you, you were;

Before stones were marked out to hold you, or chimney and fireplace covered you, you were;

Before the shelter of walls embraced you, center of the home as yet unbuilt, you were;

Within the unwitting spark of tinder, the fragile ember, within the first primordial fire, you were;

The telltale sign of human presence-- that which made man into mankind, noble Hestia, you were;

The light that lit our way, the warmth that preserved us, tool and weapon and giver of food, you were;

The ritual heart, the circle center, the primal stage of ancient tales, you were;

Tender, keeper, bonder of bonds, bringer of shelter, guider and guardian of the human race,

From our infancy, great Hestia, you were-- ever have been, ever will be-- and ever shall you be deserving of praise.

I'm glad everyone now is more openly condemning Israel but it took 7 aid workers to be murdered over 30,000 Palestinians for everyone to open their eyes.

No one is safe in Gaza and the West Bank, not even aid workers.

Imagine it must feel strange to be a popular cookbook author or recipe blogger and know that you have such a direct impact on what people do in their daily lives.

one thing about shameless is that the product placement is wack, the gallaghers are not fucking eating name brand cheerios and name brand sunny d and it pissed me off immediately and continued to for years like how is no one else noticing this

until i realized, that shameless was only available on showtime meaning that the people like me that are intimately familiar with families like the gallaghers didn't even have access to the show in the first place and then i got more pissed off

$11 for a Taco Bell cravings meal?! Ahahaha. Fuck you. I literally put my card away and left. Went to the Dairy Queen instead and paid $8 for a chicken strip meal. Taco Bell is never worth more than $10 and you better get a shit ton of cheap crappy food there at that price.
