WELCOME TO SHAW-CTOBER

🎃

Meeting your friends after lockdown

Giving someone six geese (a-laying, and thus in full protect-the-nest mode), much less SEVEN SWANS, does not seem to me, to be, per se, an act of true love

it is past time we jettisoned the useless false dichotomy of introversion vs. extroversion and just accepted that everybody has a minimum amount of social interaction, failing which, they get really weird. and everybody has a maximum amount of social interaction, exceeding which, they get really weird. these levels are different for everyone, for a variety of reasons, and have no moral dimension. and that is all.

why would you come to this club and just shoot Myers & Briggs like this

they deserved it

Poem Bangkok pre-fall 2020 “Celestial Sin”

I desperately want the red velvet A line dress and I want @cowboysandconundrums to get one of the blue velvets so we can match our velvet outfitted Barbie dolled from Christmas 1998!!!

I want to wake up in a log cabin somewhere in the middle of the woods, make coffee, and watch the sunrise

BUTTERBEER

6 12-ounce bottles chilled cream soda

3 teaspoons (1 tablespoon) imitation butter flavor

OPTIONAL – 1 ounce light rum, per serving, for adults only

For the foam

2 cups heavy cream

6 tablespoons sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 1/2 teaspoons imitation butter

Instructions:

Add the butter extract to 6 16-oz cups the top with cold cream soda.

I’m a stand mixers (or if it arm day, do you.) add heavy cream, sugar and extracts and beat it like it owes you money. Preferably medium peaks.

Top the cream soda with a dollop of the foam and enjoy!

I. Love this. 

Love it.

Oh my god

yes.

This is it, I found it, the funniest post on this entire godsforsaken website

I will never get over how brilliant this comic is. The artist could have just drawn a single image in response, but instead we have this masterpiece. The world doesn’t deserve @iguanamouth.

Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.

I love people with obscure knowledge or useless academic insights. I want to hear your analysis of lighting in Ratatouille. Tell me about the history of soda pop or the references to classical mythology in Macbeth. I want to know about the underlying homoerotic context of that 1930s sci-fi paperback. I think all knowledge is worthwhile knowledge. Explain to me the ecosystems that komodo dragons inhabit. Don't be afraid to learn for the sake of learning.
