@transfemwulian Jin Yong (sometimes considered the OG of modern wuxia) definitely loved to throw a guy off a cliff and then reveal he wasn’t dead later. would not be surprised to hear this trope goes all the way back to water margin

@aschmitz @Lady tho manchego does seem like a relatively less bad option

@aschmitz @Lady specifically, i made margo wash the cutting board because she wanted hot chocolate and i said i would not make it with manchego crumbs in

Food, questionable storage choices. 

@SocialGaff it’s not ideal but the objections are largely more aesthetic than actual food safety

Link and brief description: eye socket fucking fic 

@transfemwulian yay!! i love that personal fandom websites are becoming a thing again, they’re so much fun 💛

@stelepami you would think you’d want it to sound more like the catcher than the coach but i’m not sure there’s a vocal component at all? could just be four tone patterns

tampa camera crew makes some truly inspired choices

@djsundog agreed

the one in which a white lady explains that she “can’t show her face” bc liberals will yell at her for showing being white is very funny though

@bright_helpings i left the room for like 2 min to make tea and when i came back they were up six instead of two. can’t look away for a minute 😅

@Lady @love @moonsea but yeah the primary issue with “my fandom is a thing you do” hypotheses is that i would define which things you do count as fandom as those codified as fannish by the fandom community

which is very recursive. but also that is how communities often work—soccer fans sing the songs soccer fans sing at games because soccer fans sing them at games

@moonsea @Lady @love i am reminded of that DIY card catalogue that someone posted about a few weeks back in which a star trek TOS fan made entires for every episode which made heavy use of TV guide and newspaper clippings (it was made back when the show was first airing and is now in a university archive as a example of early fannish activities)

@moonsea @love i feel like eg. making icons also counts but yeah exactly

@moonsea @love i feel like if it is fandom depends on your way of engaging with a thing, not the thing itself? so like, not all people who watch figure skating are in figure skating fandom in the same way that not everyone who reads a novel is in that novels fandom but definitely *some* people are

@bea on reflection i’m not surprised this exists but i am somewhat surprised it sold well enough to show up on the used book market

@rowyn i suspect victory will get to stop panicking about having lost valor quite soon!

re: sportsball 

@wallhackio @Lady ok even leaving aside the number of ads they had specifically for this game during baseball yesterday AND the fact that we texted you about it on friday, you do know that brady is a fox sports announcer right?
