Fuck I’m at a fencing tournament and literally a minute after I reblogged this my dad told me that he talked to the point people and I’m probably going to win a medal.

I need to follow up to say I reblogged this last night, and this morning I got some of the best news of my life, like, a life dream come true news thing.

Bagel what are your powers

FUCK, I though it was just another lucky meme but LISTEN. Since a week ago I was waiting a phone call to confirm me if I got a job or not in my university. I reblogged this yesterday’s night “just for fun and because I don’t want any bagel to be mad with me”, and today’s afternoon, while I was losing my time as always, the professor I was supposed to work with called me and asked me for my personal information to start working with her.

THE BAGEL POWERS ARE WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS WORLD

I GOT A JOB THE DAY AFTER MY QUEUE POSTED THIS THE FIRST TIME AND I JUST REALIZED IT WHEN I SAW IT AGAIN HOLY GOD

The bagel hasn’t let me down yet!

I got a job offer after reblogging the bagel. Believe in the bagel!

Do not get me wrong I think it's great that we're slowly getting more aroace representation (and I am both aro and ace myself) but istg people forget that aromanticism and asexuality exist outside of eachother ESPECIALLY when it comes to aromanticism. Acknowledge all aspecs not just the overlap between aros and aces

hey jsyk while hellofresh is dummy expensive and i wouldn’t reccomend it if you already know how to cook (if you’re a beginner like i was when i had it for 3 months, then it’s worth it), you should know that ALL OF THEIR RECIPES are free on their website and they all fuck hard

i will say that all the cooking instructions for veggies are pretty much the same (season with salt + pepper and roast on the top oven rack at 425F), but if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

that being said, it also introduced me to methods i wasn’t at all expecting. i would have never thought to use cream cheese in my meat sauce, and now all my friends are constantly asking me to make my special rigatoni.

happy cheffin! :)

I am a person who uses Hello Fresh for realsies because it is a bit cheaper than groceries here and definitely cheaper than takeout, but we also remake the recipes when we want a specific one and don't want to wait for it to come around in the rotation again, and therefore I know The Secret Translations of Proprietary Ingredients:

  • "Cream sauce base" = make a roux, add milk according to how much cream sauce base you're supposed to have (ex: 4 oz cream sauce base = 4 oz milk)
  • "1 packet stock concentrate" = either one tablespoon Better than Bullion or, if you want to be really accurate, Savory Choice Broth Concentrate packets are available on Amazon and allegedly that's what they use
  • "Italian Heat Spice"/"Blackening Spice"/"Fry Seasoning"/etc.: I promise you someone on Reddit has figured out what spices they use and in what proportions for each mix, if it's not just a straight up branded mix (like McCormick Grill Mates Brown Sugar Bourbon spice mix)
  • "Roasted Garlic Herb Butter" (and other compound butters, like truffle butter) = they're literally Epicurean branded butters, they do not hide this, you can buy them online
  • "Sweet Soy Glaze"/"Ponzu sauce"/"Hoisin sauce" = literally Kikkoman brand condiments: they don't hide that, either
  • "Sweet Thai chili sauce" = any sweet Thai chili sauce from the grocery store will do. We use Blue Dragon or Taste of Thai because that's what we can get in our grocery store.

Yes, such a claim makes him look like a small-minded piece of shit. To us. But we still shouldn't help Musk create revisionist history.

Musk bought Twitter because he fucked around and found out. He wanted to fuck with Twitter's stock price by feigning interest in buying it. Since that's illegal, he was then cornered into actually buying it for an insanely inflated price.

He's a transphobe. He's a bad father. But he's also a fucking idiot.

This. Please remember that he committed blatant market manipulation by not disclosing that he owned shares of Twitter when he was fucking with the stock market. The SEC was watching him very closely already, and so when the cost became more than what the entire company was worth, he had no choice. Remember when he had his gaggle of lawyers try to get him out of it by saying Twitter didn't disclose all of the information? That wasn't Twitter, it was him trying desperately to get out of a purchase he didn't want in the first place.

Character Spreadsheets

Hello!

For folks who don't know me, my name is Mint, and when I'm not recommending ttrpgs, I like to design play-kits for different ttrpg games to facilitate easier online play. These player kits are designed to be shared with a playgroup in which everyone has editing access, with either character templates that can be duplicated, or a list of playbooks for games that use those instead. I've finally collected all of my useable play-kits into one folder, which I am sharing below for anyone to use. If you would like to use one of these, open up the file. Then select "File" -> "Make a Copy". I have included a tab on many of these games that is labelled "Lines, Veils & Lures." This is a modified version of Lines & Veils that my table uses that incorporates Lures, which are things that the group wants to see in game.

Most sheets also include a link to where you can get the game they are made for, up in the top row of the sheet. So if you see a play-sheet you like, you can find the game pretty easily from there! I've done sheets for big games like Numenera, and little games like Cryptid TV. I'm always working on more, so there will be more that are added to this folder over time. I'll probably also be editing these sheets themselves as I update sections, add links, and incorporate more Lines, Veils & Lures! You can check out the sheets here!

I'm Cassi Mothwin, a game designer, writer, illustrator!

I realized I never really introduced myself, so here I am officially. I got my start casually designing for 5e in 2021, and my first project, What Crooked Roots, is an electrum best seller on DriveThruRPG! I've moved away from 5e, but here are some of my other items...

Tangled Blessings is my GM-less dark-academia inspired gothic-horror magical school game that uses tarot cards. It's based on the wonderful Anamnesis game by @goblinmixtape.

It's a 1-2 player roleplaying game featuring an academic rival, ghosts, curses, and much more of what'd you expect at a magical school swimming in horrors.

If you have a growing pile of stickers, check out The Sticker Game! The Sticker Game is a solo-ish game that's completely audio! You play by listening to audio tracks and completing tasks in your journal with your stickers. But be careful! Your stickers impact another universe. You never know what could go wrong!

I say it's "solo-ish" because it's easy to have the audio playing over a single speaker while playing with friends.

why tf didnt anyone tell me lego dimensions ends with a portal song where glados is literally sadly staring at a picture of chell and singing about how much she regrets that she's gone and thinking about how she'll never come back what the Fuck. what the fuck.

they literally gave glados the sad lesbian anthem of the century and nobody told me ????

rhotic-shwa

you arent gonna mention the part where, at the end of a verse about forgiving chell, she holds the last note for a long time and the (lego-based) captions use periods and commas to spell out

1jhn1:9

in morse code, referring to 1 John 1:9:

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

it is literally so dramatic!!! glados is SO NORMAL ABOUT THIS!

glados honey i know this is your first break up but. girl.

If you care about artists, support the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes

Man I don't even fkn CARE about critical role anymore and yet I find myself defending them because people have decided to make this entire company the fucking rpg boogeyman for things that have absolutely NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM Like. I do not say these things as a fan! I stopped watching the show LITERAL YEARS AGO!!!! I just think that maybe just maybe possibly we could handle ttrpg discourse/performance and streaming discourse with THE TINIEST IOTA OF NUANCE The fandom is toxic as heck and also yes the company that is critical role has done some problematic things. They have also done some good things. Most of the time they just do *things* without any particular moral weight to them This is a twitter subpost *facepalm* I'm so tired and I can't do threads at all and nobody is inviting me to bluesky and my rpg peeps aren't really jumping into tumblr and where am I going to be able to talk about cool games with cool people
