It’s just me

Hi.  I’m Josh.  I’m fairly old.  I sometimes write games, and sometimes I talk about them.

KICK THE CAN!

Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.

To kick the can, reblog it. I wanna see how long this can go on for.

the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!

The worst types of cookbook:

  • The Ottolenghi - it is vital that you use 1g of this very expensive ingredient. It comes from a 500g bag with a one-week shelf life.
  • The time machine - 15-minute recipe! First, leave to marinate overnight...
  • The dishwasher - one-pot recipe! Now decant your ingredients and wipe out your pot. And again. And again. And again.
  • The optimist - cook the onions until caramelised (2 minutes).
  • The kindergarten teacher - get one nommable little tree of broccoli and bosh that into boiling water. Delish!
  • The brand names only - ingredients: Ritz crackers, Philadelphia cheese, Cool Whip, orange Jell-o...
  • The 1950s palate - use one (1) clove of garlic and a small pinch of chili flakes (omit if preferred).
  • The why bother with a cookbook - to make beans on toast, gently heat a tin of beans and put on top of freshly buttered toast.

I have a fabulous lasagna recipe that calls for either make your own marinara or Classico (brand name specific because the flavor profile is known + it's gluten-free).

Guess which one I always opt for.

Here's a quick five-minute recipe for cooks on the go! First, dice an onion...

yea that'd be a shame

by the way, just so everyone knows what not to do, shift+r reblogs a post instantly

just make sure you don't reblog anything about oceangate because that would completely undermine their entire plan 😇😇😇

You also shouldn't queue a post, that would make people keep remembering this post for a longer time, which is the opposite of forgetting

June 18, 2023 never forgor

Wait, was I supposed to reblog something?

I dont understand how science is perceived as the opposite of religion. Frankly, I never feel closer to God than when I am studying His creations. Learning about the brain, biology, chemistry, evolution, it makes me believe more than anything.

you have to consciously unlearn racism and continue to watch for it because it will come out without realizing. because so much of society is structured around it. shrugging and going "i dont care" or "i dont know how else to say it" means you are okay with being racist and hurting other people with how much you dont give a shit about them.

This is awfully, tragically, painfully true. That shit gets into your bones when you're a kid; you can't just rely on being a good person to overcome it.

Make the fucking effort.

cancel your mullvad subscription

tech news today is that Mullvad VPN has gone mask-off about being the major funding source for the Swedish Orebro party, who are racist nationalists. unfortunately all discussion of this is occurring on fucking Mastodon instances i can barely load

if you are a mullvad customer (as i am) and want to get out, here is guidance from this guy

If you don't want your Mullvad fees going to fund neo-Nazis - or @mozilla VPN fees, which is rebranded Mullvad - cancel and get a refund immediately that's whose "free speech" the official account is talking about here, and that's where your fees go to EDIT: Mullvad has a 14 day refund policy. But the message below is a direct call to ask for a refund if you don't want to give money to Nazis. If Mullvad refuse a refund, call your consumer protection agency. And reverse credit card charges on the basis of deceptive refund policy representations. It's not like you ever want to be a Mullvad customer again. archive copy of Mullvad statement: https://web.archive.org/web/2026062717

They'll call us literally anything other than women

Saw a post by another trans person calling us "people transitioning into women."

"how can i say TIMs while sounding progressive?" type shit i swear

What's so hard about "Women"?

 - Very good. 

This is the type of film that the phrase “glorious technicolor” was invented for - look at the richness of the colours!

To say nothing of a phrase that gets used in this house a bit too often…

ok so this is The Court Jester with Danny Kaye and it is the best fucking movie i swear. It’s a comedy musical robin hood parody thing about an incompetent moron and his extremely competent ass-kicking girlfriend taking down a tyrannical king and restoring the throne to the rightful heir

-the rightful heir is a baby and they can tell it’s the right baby because of a giant birthmark on his asscheek

-the main character’s only talent is singing and the rest of the pseudo robin-hood group just kinda tolerate him because he repeatedly fucks up

-he gets hypnotized into believing he is this amazing swashbuckling sword fighting hero along the lines of Wesley from the Princess Bride and ends up fighting the villain while snapping in and out of hypnosis

-the vessel with the pestle has the pellet with the poison, the chalice with the palace has the brew that is true “what”

-he stumbles his way through the entire plot and never knows what the hell is going on

-Danny Kaye is the funniest motherfucker you’ve never heard of

-seriously go watch it you wan’t regret it

And a fun tidbit from the filming was that Danny Kaye had never fenced before this film, so he was trained by Basil Rathbone’s stunt double who was also the fight coordinator. Kaye got so proficient so quickly, that Rathbone himself had to do most of the duel scenes between them as the fight coordinator eventually couldnt keep up with him on the more technical parts of the fight. If you watch closely, you can see that Rathbone stays on camera doing the fencing for a much larger percentage of time than he normally did by that point in his career, and Kaye does all but a couple of shots of his own fencing, because HIS double couldnt keep up and make it believable.

(Slow, with an absolutely square rhythm)

AND LET THEM LEARN OF DANNY KAYE

*Yea, verily yea!*

AND LET THEM LEARN TO QUOTE THIS FILM

*Yea, verily yea!*

AND NOW WE WILL RIFF ON THE FILM

*Yea, verily yea!*

BY REF'RENCING IT IN OUR LIVES

*YEA, VERILY YEA!"

the tadc finale was made for messy transfems and if you dont like it go fuck off and watch cis people shows

timmies when they realize theyve been empathizing with a problematic tranny this whole time

genuinely? genuinely. genuinely. i am so so so fucking happy that something For Us got this big, its in theaters, it beat fucking star wars. im so glad that after the whole queer cartoon boom of the 2010s we finally got one that doesnt just have a transfeminine character but is ABOUT one. by a trans woman. i just. fuck you cis people. its about us this time. for once.

You deserve this one; it's for you.

It's Juneteenth yall. And I'm not letting this day go unmarked.

Black people fight for everybody. We stand in solidarity with women, lgbt people, poor people all over the world of every skin color and background. Every religion and nationality.

Today, stand with us. Be with us. Tell a black person you love them. Hug a black person (with consent). Ask that hot black girl out today. Make a black person smile. Black lives matter to everybody and you matter to us.

Stand with us on Juneteenth like we stand with you all year round, and I hope a happy Pride month continues for all of us

💝

Obligatory self reblog because Tumblr doesn't ever let anybody see my stuff unless I literally post it repeatedly

I'd love if you'd reblog this and keep it moving, with love

Let's keep it moving!

Happy Juneteenth everyone! Remember racism is still alive in america and slavery is too, just under different names. Black Americans deserve equity, celebration and basic fucking respect which they are not often given. Today is a reminder that we must keep fighting for the rights of so many people. If we don't keep fighting so many good people could die at the hands of a system built on the extortion of others
