#And I made lasagna

[bonefall]

I love Mistystar so much. In a world filled with representation of Stereotypical Conservative Grandparent, Mistystar represents all those grandparents who are like. So close. They tell you all these stories of the Horrors they lived through and how that spurred their incredible political activism, and there's so much that the two of you agree on. They're a breath of fresh air at family gatherings because you know that if things turn to Politics, you won't be out here alone against all your conservative kin. But. She just can never take that extra step! She's Meemaw Fascist Murderer, but things like criticizing capitalism are off limits! And you just wish you could shake her and be like come on! You're constantly on the edge of this huge political epiphany, Meemaw! Come with me! And then. Some days. She comes home and is like "You know, my friend said something about [insert insane conservative talking point], and I think she might have a point" and you just want to scream! Meemaw NO! (G-d I hope this is a relatable experience)

It ABSOLUTELY is relatable lmaooo, I've been there in the trenches with you, Nonnie. It is such a unique kind of stress when you have an older family member like that just teeter-tottering on the edge of ONE extra step foward and they DONT TAKE IT

You can file the worst members of your family under "Objective: SURVIVE" and it gives you so much more of a shield against them. You expect dumb shit from Uncle Fungleblock, the Republican Elf, never to the point where it stops hurting, but to the point that you're prepared for the fight.

But nothing prepares you for Meemaw suddenly not having your back when you needed her, because she's genuinely considering that talking point from her friend.

So now you're using the Measured Meemaw Tone, trying to legitimately address her argument the way that sometimes soothing the horse can make it drink, while Fungleblock is casting Racism Fireball at you and you can FEEL his Slur Cooldown ticking away.

You think back to everything she's been through, how gutwrenching her stories are, the things she's experienced, violence and bigotry she's WITNESSED changing over the course of her own life... but on some level, it's as if she's stuck believing that progress is just about fighting The Bad People, or making an argument convincing enough that the good guys win fair and square, and she's gotten as old as she is because she has a support network that your allies may not.

So she never really will truly protect you from Fungleblock himself as long as he behaves just enough. She helps but she isn't your hero. And she'll still keep falling into bigoted traps, because she never will crack that nut and realize the difference between racist stereotypes and material conditions.

Love, pride, and disappointment. How do you hold them all at once? You just let them swirl as they please.

In my experience, at least, lmao. But hey, my own personal Fungleblock threw himself out of Thanksgiving with a tantrum so. Life is good B)

#And this year we're doing a potluck #And I made lasagna #And he will have NONE #And I DONT TALK TO HIM haHA #Want back in? LifT YOURSELF UP BY THE BOOTSTRAPS ABOUT IT #I write a lot of BB political leanings from people I know and the way they process things #And I try to make sure to think through how a character thinks and feels with the direction of the story in mind #Ultimately I think it's important as a writer to remember a character is not a real person. Theyre a storytelling tool #But the best characters are based on real experiences and their actions resonate with something real in you. The reader. #Bone babble #Tw politics #Tw bigotry

hello my good people of tumblr dot com. today i found out that my most beloved grandmother has been giving us dive-bar meat. which is exactly what it sounds like btw. it’s meat that she bought from an old man STRANGER at a DIVEBAR from his COOLER for like 1/2 the regular price.

#i think i … might have worms #‘here mija i made lasagna want some ?’ #NOT ANYMORE WOMAN

Lately, I've been wanting to improve my garlic bread recipe. So, I ask of you, my fellow asexuals (and other garlic bread enjoyers): would you share your recipe with me? Please? I need it

#asexual #ace #garlic bread #cooking #I can buy different breads if necessary #Do you think the moon is made out of garlic bread? #I always associate garlic bread with lasagna and vice versa

it's.... spelled........ JON.............. arbuckle........

#how i actually feel when i see someone spell jon arbuckle's name as ''john'' for the 574867347th time /j #jon arbuckle #garfield #shitpost #i find it interesting how many people spell his name with a H though #like i get that john is the more common spelling but also it was never written or spelled that way in any garf media #it's more common with people who haven't read garfield which is understandable actually #this post is a joke i don't actually get mad when people spell his name with a H #it's just like... you know that feeling you get when you really REALLY want to correct someone on a piece of info you know they got wrong? #yeah it's that #i'm very passionate about garfield if you couldn't tell lol #i guess there's just so much misinfo about garfield that it gets kinda exhausting #like i've heard a couple people say that garfield was made during WW2??? #and when i first heard that i was like ''????? literally no it wasn't???'' #like i mean this in the most polite way but What The Actual Fuck Are You Talking About #omg that's like that andrew garfield tweet i hate so much. you know the one that says that garfield was created by his granddad- #-about his cat who was named 'lasagna'? i hate that tweet with every fiber of my being there's SO MUCH wrong about it it's not even funny #i think that tweet is actually satire though but honestly it's so hard to tell what's satire and what isn't anymore #anyway. jon is spelled jon not john have a good day :)

a starstruck odyssey is for lovers

#more than acofaf even. the love story of the wurst is what dreams are made of #emilymurph sitting next to each other...skip straightest man ever prince of alien slugs learning to be free bc of the crew...gnosis... #best on average npcs. lucienne plug bambi leroux the butch at the space station fuckin space heiress trust fund baby bajar crunch moon jone #and this is not to say ANYTHING of how good the characters are. #they could keep making d20 seasons forever and starstruck will always be a cut above the rest because of how fucking good the setting is #like with crown of candy even tho i loved it sm i feel like some politics were discarded in favor of the others; all out war was eh to me #the build up to a war tho? now that's interesting that's where the juice is basically i wanted asoiaf book one vibes with this cast but #that's a matter of personal preference! i don't feel like acoc did the most that could've been done with a “politics” campaign #dimension 20 #dropout.tv #a starstruck odyssey #because of their deep investment in the world and the genre it never feels like starstruck couldn't do anything. it feels limitless! #season two...god if they never do one that'd be such wasted capability #ik fantasy high is so beloved and it is a beautiful lasagna of time and playing style but if i could get multiple seasons w starstruck... #the thing that makes asoiaf asoiaf is that we have a similar level of insight into the minds of baddies like the lannisters as we do into #the minds of the clean jesus allegory starks. and in acoc the “worst” character we got from the heroes was lapin n even he was aligned #to the rocks' cause. saccharina WAS a rocks -- that was her whole deal -- and even then she wasn't a morally reproachable character bc #she was right! i wanted acoc to be down and dirty and when they said ravening would be i was excited but even that turned out to be them #destroying a secret cult which was going to kill the world. no really down low shenanigans!

I hope y’all have had a wonderful day! This is what I woke up to hehe

The view from our front doors looked startling for a moment until I realized it’s just a perspective thing 💀 I for sure thought the void was gonna consume me

#did it snow where you guys are? #a snow storm swept through my area 😭 #but it’s almost a relief #we’ve hardly had any snow this entire season #so I did some shoveling today #and made lasagna #I hope you’re all taking care of yourselves <3 #Izzy bitty slice of life

Tonight

It was yummy. It was alternating vegetable (carrot, onion, arugula, and spinach) and cheese (ricotta, mascarpone, mozzarella parm, and romano) layers with a lemon dill cream sauce.

#😋 #i made lasagna #dinner

[eviltext]

lasaga sop 👍

#cooking #p #img #most tasty + emotionally/physically filling meal i made for myself since the year started #didnt change much of your typical lasagna soup recipe except i used canned marinated tomatoes and added olives. and parsley. #and a bit of paté (my secret ingredient for hearty stewy things)

[ejzah]

Made my first lasagna:

#ejzah cooks #I made the rookie mistake of not greasing my foil #lasagna #extra crispy edges

[swinging-stars-from-satellites]

so! I have learned something today!

#oven ready lasagna noodles take significantly longer to cook than regular noodles you pre-cook #which I did know but I've never made lasagna either way so I didn't really think about it tbh

[cursedfortune]

🦃

If you celebrate, happy turkey. If you don't, happy day. And if you're not having a good day, some idiot on the internet says ilu, tomorrow will be better.

Stay safe, everyone. <3

#ooc #this lasagna i made could kill a man and i take solace in that uwu #who needs a folding chair to hit someone with. just acquire lasagna tray

worst food crimes 1. activated charcoal 2. gold leaf 3. pricing things way over simply because its a basic dish drenched in black truffle 4. white peoples obsession with butter chicken'd white people food

#my old manager learned i was indian and immediately made me try her butter chicken lasagna #yea..

[dolladooley]

hc that when the bionic trio got to come out of the lab for the first time and tasha made dinner, they all went through some sort of psychedelic sequence after the first bite like when a kids cartoon character eats a miscellaneous mushroom

#the show sets up tasha as if she’s a bad cook #but i simply do not care for or believe that #she made something real simple too like mac and cheese #and then another night later in the week she made lasagna or something #yeah donald knew no such thing as mercy #because bitch why was you feeding us pork pellets when shit can taste like this. #lab rats #adam davenport #bree davenport #chase davenport #donald davenport #tasha davenport #tasha dooley #leo dooley
