#she uses oil for that I THINK

[anonymocha]

Lucy uses batteries but also has a piston core… Is she like a hybrid car that uses both electric and mechanical energy sources???… Or is her piston core just happen to be what her arcane “heart” is since it is her udimo… I may be looking into this robot too deeply.

patting myself on the back for enforcing the most basic of boundaries with my mother by refusing to talk to her until tomorrow after she tried to insist on calling me for the fourth time today in as many hours because i'm sick and she wants to "check up" on me. this is why i don't talk to you unless i have to!!! because you'll use any excuse to be up in my business every 5 minutes and make me feel like you think i'm 2 years old and incapable of taking care of myself!!!

Grand babbee cardassian has broken me… also more Jocasta content pls we love a quiet queen

GRANPA GARAK! A DISIPLINARIAN!

He gets up early every day to pick fresh fruit from the garden for his grandkids. Elim III is his Little Regnar. Lim thinks he's going to spoil them rotten (the orphanage and the dirt floor gardening shed that they lived in was CHARACTER BUILDING. it made him the MAN HE IS TODAY.)

JOCASTA LOVE.... she's truly an underrated queen.. here maam ms head scrub nurse you dropped your crown 👑

She cares about outward presentation as much as any Cardassian, but especially hair (cardassian hair being much thicker and coarser than human fur.)

also she refers to julian as Dr Bashir at work just out of propriety and respect. most people don't know that they're father and daughter simply because she does not care to tell them. they just think she's his favorite because she's good at her job and gently takes no shit

*crawls my way through your prairie dog tunnel* HEY! How does Tangy feel about being groomed! Whether by being pet or scritched or with a brush/comb?

☆*:. o(≧▽≦)o .:*☆ HI !!!! Omg hiii I’ll add lights to that tunnel next time I go through and a lil snack stop with trail mix…. 😌

If you could scritch/brush the spot between her shoulder blades she’d purr like one of the Ironworks Motor Bikes it’s really hard to reach that spot in particular and there’s that patch of fur and sometimes it just gets so (ITCHY!!!)

Grooming is one of those nice bonding activities she’d enjoy, cos you can reciprocate and do it for the person grooming you in kind after •w• also it’s rly relaxing!!! (Relaxing enough Tangy might take a tiny nap 🫢 brushing her fur or hair and she just slowly bonks into the nearest vertical surface) (I also think… her tongue might poke out… just a little bit… a goofy little triangle of pink.)

I imagine like most creatures with fur Hrothgar shed seasonally so there’s surely jokes to be had about making a Mini Tangy out of shed fur snfnenfrnfj

My mom is going on a cruise w her bestie to a lot of European countries she's not seen yet (hasn't been to/lived in Europe or Africa since shortly before I was born). She asked me what gift I'd like and tbh I just really loooooove spices and flavors I dont have the opportunity to discover/try here, but like 🤔 not sure if customs would bar her from bringing spices home. Maybe a cool rock or smth instead as I seem to be collecting small stone animals when I travel lately

NO CUP UPON CMD FOREVER AND EVER

SHAKING YUOR FIN VIGOROUSLY. ✨🦈✨

for those missing context here’s puckpocketed Deep Cuts vol. 2!! my friend who i met outside of hockey (in the gamer trenches) used to follow the nhl casually before she met me. over this past summer, i fell into hockey and dragged her back in. ever since i told her about cmd she has had this as her discord status:

she’s not active on hockey tumblr much outside of some lurking/liking but she is a celebrity. to ME!!!! all of our teams were knocked out of playoffs/basement teams who never made it and so this is truly all we have left <3

It's strange how much, when I have time off (e.g. tomorrow is ANZAC Day and I've booked the Friday after as annual leave so I can have a four-day weekend), I feel like "ah, normal life for a bit," because work-day life never really feels like life.

Anyway, this weekend is my mother's 70th birthday and she's having a party (catered ladies' lunch) and she's sad because her sister is sick and can't come but on the other hand her best friend has flown over from Australia for it, and I will spend a chunk of tomorrow baking two large and sumptuous carrot cakes for the occasion.

The best carrot cake recipe I've ever found btw: Carrot Cake III from Allrecipes.com. I make it without the pecans, because my sister's allergic to nuts, and instead of plain cinnamon I use mixed spice (called pudding spice in the UK and pumpkin pie spice in the USA). Otherwise, I just follow the recipe and I really cannot over-emphasise how nice this cake is. My sister and mother request it for their birthday cakes pretty much every year.

It's so moist you can make it a couple of days in advance with no noticeable deterioration (provided you store it wrapped up or in an airtight container, of course). The original recipe is for a 9x13 rectangular pan but it works pretty perfectly if you divide the batter equally between two medium-size round cake pans and then layer the baked cakes with the cream cheese icing, which is my normal method. This time, however, I'm making the rectangular version for ease of cutting and serving to a lot of different people.

And it's easy. You don't actually need an electric mixer, if you have a whisk or an egg-beater and some gumption that's just as good. I speed things up by grating the carrots in a food processor - as well as being quicker, I find this results in tidier grated carrots that don't leak and slop their juice so much. In my experience, three medium-size carrots usually yield three cups of the grated stuff, and I would recommend using a grater or food processor disc with smaller holes - thinner strands of carrot give you a better-textured cake.

And as you may know if you know me, I like carrot cake to be a simple and honest CARROT cake, and this one is. There is no secret, sneaky fruit involved.* Carrot it says and carrot it is and carrot it ever shall be.

I once made this with heirloom purple carrots as an experiment. It looked simply disgusting and tasted exactly the same.

*I don't mind if you want a carrot and pineapple cake! I just think you should call it a carrot and pineapple cake. Stuff you if you put sultanas or raisins in it though.

only the 2nd time I've been able to get barcus to camp as the first two times my grymforge rescue quest was bugged, is it normal for my man to assert dominance over camp members? idk if he's bugged or what but I love him sm I wish my mc had a tent he could linger at instead 😘

Yall…streets saying Mielle Organics is making people’s hair fall out.

And I can personally attest to this because I’ve been using their Rosemary Mint oil(and in general I think it’s specifically the Rosemary Mint line that was produced after they sold to proctor and gamble) and so has my family. Our hair has been falling out. My own hair has been falling out after using the oil in odd amounts(not normal shedding. Like it was a lot and it was immediately after detangling and blow drying too. During washday most of the shedding comes out during the washing process. I still shouldn’t be losing hair after detangling and blow drying. More in the tags) when it shouldn’t be.

I don’t know what’s going but there’s also this too:

All I ask is that ya’ll share your experiences if you’ve had issues because this is looking like another DevaCurl situation.

read the tags if you're nasty

telling random people that they probably have to shampoo their hair less than they think is a thankless job that no one listens to me for but someone must be a prophet that walks the earth

i was telling myself it was okay that i sucked at guitar hero's easy mode at the arcade earlier and that no one was even paying attention to me but then my mom said there were 3 dudes watching me when she walked in

I was thinking about ☝️ Salice helping companions shave or fix their facial hair ☝️🤓 she's good at it because she had to learn to help her dad with it ages ago ☝️🤓 I thought it'd be cute.
