Are leaf water and bean water options?

(tea, coffee, hot chocolate)

hey dingus! drink some water! are you feeling sad? that's no good! drink some water! will it help? maybe! who knows! drinking water is a good idea regardless! so why not have a nice refreshing sip? sounds like a plan to me! go on, go get a glass of the good stuff! I'll be here when you get back!

I can’t show anyone because I forgot to take pictures but I tried last night and

Holy Fuck IT WAS

BEAUTIFUL

okay so here's how you get really good rice (source: asian)

Rinse the rice TWICE with COLD water, and then when you fill the rice pot up for the 3rd time, have the water about an inch or so higher that the level of rice.

it will be soft and fluffy and reheat really well

I will absolutely try this because I yearn for Chinese takeout quality rice so so badly.

I also have a dumb follow up question, but precisely what kind of rice is it that Chinese restaurants use? Of course it's white rice, but I mean when I'm standing in the rice aisle and there's 10 different variations of white rice, what do I really want? I'm rice-savvy enough to know it's not like, jasmine or basmati. But there are so many other categories. Short grain, medium grain, "something which might be sushi rice but is being coy about it". The Hmart near me has like 12 shelves stacked high with rice and I am simply clueless.

The point of officially naming a pet is not to actually use that name but to have a baseline from which to come up with every conceivable nickname to call them instead.

I appreciated the positive rep for groups that are constantly overlooked

For those searching I’m pretty sure you can find it on HBO Max

Reblog if you remember this motherfucker:

I been talking to a lot of ppl w cats lately (I volunteer at an animal shelter) and I didn’t know this needed to be said but

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT DECLAW YOUR CAT.

Declawing sounds very normal to people who aren’t educated on it so let me show you what it actually is.

As you might notice from the diagram, the claw is attached to a small bone at the very end of a cat’s paw. They are fused to this bone, which on a human hand would be where your last knuckle is (the one right before your nail). When someone gets a cat declawed, they aren’t just removing the claw.

The entire last digit of the cat’s paw is removed. (See below)

This severely impedes the cat’s ability to balance itself, is extremely painful for them, and can make the cat extremely aggressive because it no longer has one of its main defense mechanisms! It can also cause many other medical issues down the line including infection, necrosis, and some cats are never able to walk correctly again. Most cats that have this done never fully recover from the procedure and are in constant chronic pain.

It is extremely inhumane and is illegal in only two states at the time I’m writing this!!!! (Maryland and New York) Cats should only have this procedure if it is a life or death situation, never just because someone finds a cat being a cat inconvenient for them. Don’t get a cat if you don’t want to be scratched or have some ruined furniture. If you want more information on this topic, I’d recommend Jackson Galaxy’s YouTube video on it, and to read up on some articles I will link in the comments.

I know I don’t usually post about these types of things, but it’s made me extremely angry to hear people mention getting their cats declawed so flippantly as if it doesn’t ruin the cat’s life, and always for an asinine reason like “they scratched my couch” or “they scratch my kids” THOSE ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES AS A CAT OWNER. Treat your kids and peers to treat animals with respect, or don’t get a cat.

LUMITY!

I know I would

i am going to tell you guys something and it's going to sound made up but i need you to believe me just this once
