as the heatwave hits both america and europe, this is a handy infographic to pass around
people who are elderly, young, or chronically ill are more susceptible to this!
many head meds (SSRIs, etc) make this more likely as well!
heatstroke can also come with confusion and other mental symptoms. if you see someone who is warm to the touch, not sweating, and acting oddly in this heat (especially if in categories of ppl at risk) - please help get them medical attention! heatstroke can kill!
@lynnesbian that is incredibly valid
i think sometimes people easily forget online that here on mastodon the tools have faces behind them, that it's far more a grassroots effort than "oh someone's getting paid to deal with this so i can mess around with it", and it ends up with people making messes or trying to make messes with the expectation someone else will clean up later
telling them to gtfo for a little bit instead of drawing on the table with ketchup is very valid
@InspectorCaracal you are absolutely correct
@InspectorCaracal i already call broccoli salad a salad, and watergate salad a salad, so i am already committed to the white person Dubious Foods Thrown Together And Dubbed A Salad law
green fluff is green fluff though. i mean you can call it a salad if you want but it's fluff
@InspectorCaracal listen emmy is just glad there's not any mayonnaise in this one
i actually like her a lot because she doesn't launch immediately into EWWW GROSSOUT over retro recipes, she is like "this is weird but i'm going to actually give this a fair shake" which i massively respect, especially when she's doing recipes that have their source in the great depression, etc.
@InspectorCaracal listen i was dubious until i heard the ingredient list and after the concept of it was explained, i'm on board
however i'd propose that instead of snickers, using Payday or another peanut-and-caramel bar, chopping it fairly fine, and then chucking that in with your apple chunks and cool whip
it's a testament to how fucking white i am that i'd actually try snickers salad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlNFuv6WZZY
me: youtube. give me something entertaining to watch so i can be distracted from the current political hellscape
youtube: Grilled apples with bonfire 【apples for revenge】https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELRIkiaCrCU
me: ok i am not sure why i am getting this but i will accept this japanese man cooking outdoors gleefully into my life even though i don't know a lick of japanese because "apples for revenge" is a powerful statement and i can respect that
@eightbitsamurai@elekk.xyz jesus fucking christ that's some caucasity right there
it's always fucking bad when i, the wonderbread special, the woman low-key allergic to her own melanin, the person who defends green fluff AND broccoli salad AND pineapple and cheddar casserole ALL AS DELICIOUS FOODS, can look at something and go "wow okay that's way too much fucking whiteness"
hey #ffxiv tag, and #ffxivrp tag,
i keep seeing folks from mateus/balmung referencing a carrd for their characters, aka a site made with carrd.co
i also keep forgetting to actually go look at any of these lol
any of y'all use carrd.co for your character profiles so you can sling a url up easily in your user description? any tips, tricks?
i may mainly want this for like
ok you see this following comic?
now please imagine it is a lanky gerudo fella sneaking into bed with his metamors and being very proud of himself for not waking either of the hylians up (link and zelda are absolutely woken up at 4am for this but are too polite to say anything)
(sidon slept thru it tho)
(somehow)
this story idea i've had simmering away has now gotten more complicated because my brain went "ok yes, narratively, it makes sense for good-guy-ganon-trapped-in-suffering-now-finally-freed to die here as being given freedom to do so, stopping a cycle of half-reincarnation suffering... but.... what if he didn't and the zelda/link/sidon polycule gains a lanky gerudo man with the temperament of a nervous chihuahua after being tortured for millennia scrambled his psyche like an egg"
in the video game series Legend of Zelda, the triforce is the ultimate object of power whose parts are greater than the sum of their whole when working in balance; however, all victories shown are temporary and rely on imbalance, usually of the hero winning. therefore, in this essay, i will definitively prove that the ultimate end of the timeline and the series MUST be the creation of a happy, consensual, and stable link/zelda/ganon polycule,
@QuestForTori i just made a face in real life like someone had shoved a rotten egg under my nose. excellent work
shadowbringers spoilers
i can't believe "taking the measure of man" has really meant "real bastard dps checks" this whole time
