Klaus Being So Offended That Carmelita Thinks They Were Expelled Is So Fucking FUNNY And Also Relatable

on the one hand I feel like Tommy probably should have clocked this before marrying the head communist, on the other hand I'm now just imagining their conversation that night, namely Maria discussing the fact that her brother in law has arrived with a child and then Tommy is just having a breakdown over being a communist

Interstellar Overdrive

A Tess x Joel bodyguard/boss AU set in the 1970s whew

His fingertips brushed through the curtain of hair hanging to her waist. Dressing like a goddamn hippie with motivations that were resolutely square. A capitalist muckety-muck playing dress-ups with the beautiful people. Tess had some goddamn nerve and he wanted every last piece of her, Duke’s warnings be damned.

Because Duke was right – he’d never met anyone like her before. And maybe by getting a little closer he could unravel the enigma, because he’d meant what he’d told Duke – one woman was, essentially, the same as another. There were a finite number of parts people could play. And she was just playing one of them, concealing it a little better than most.

Tess whispered again in his ear: “You answer to me, now.”

Chapter One now on AO3! HNY!

the two keys pieces of information for a crush: their height and their sexuality

@poshtearex brought this up

I finally got around to watching the rest of good omens!!!! It was absolutely brilliant I really loved it.

Thoughts on the show vs. the book:

I am very glad Pepper still got a sword

Adam was creepier than I remember him being in the book

I really loved Anathema! Especially when she burns the second prophecy book

I miss the second set of the horseman of the apocalypse :-(

I really liked Gabriel! It was really interesting seeing the parallels between heaven and hell and how much more similar to each other they are compared to the humans

Yeah in conclusion it was great and I love all the characters but especially Pepper

Anathema introducing herself

Melanie: I created balance.

Layton: You ruined a perfectly good three-quarters of the population is what you did! Look at them! They have anxiety!

comfort food soup recipe!

this is my chicken and veggie soup that is the equivalent to a warm hug

makes like six ish portions idrk as leftovers just get eaten in my house

Ingredients

4 chicken thighs (skin on)

1 large onion

2 medium carrots

Some celery

Lots of garlic

Chicken stock (cubes are fine)

Potatoes (3 or four decently big ones)

Salt and pepper and some sort of dried or fresh herbs (dried oregano or thyme is good, as is rosemary)

optionals extras if you have them in your fridge (I put these in if stuff needs using up):

Sweet potato

Pancetta / bacon

Peppers

Beans (canellini beans or butter beans are great here)

other random fresh herbs you definitely remember buying that are definitely not dead and sad

Instructions

fry the chicken skin! start it on a low heat and a little bit of oil and then let the fat render out until you have crispy golden chicken skin. this is delicious crumbled on the soup, not that it ever gets to mine due to my partner/ housemates eating it first

cube up the chicken and add it to the hot pan with the rendered chicken fat and fry it until it's nice and golden and you have fond. don't worry if it isn't fully cooked you just want colour here, and remember to season with salt and pepper

add your diced veggies - onion, carrot and celery (aka everything but potatoes) and gently sautee in some oil and a good pinch of salt (pinch means three fingers here) until soft and the onions are translucent, making sure you scrape up the chicken fond on the bottom of the pan (about six or seven minutes depending on how much veg you have)

add you garlic and dry herbs and any other flavourings and fry for another two minutes until you can smell it

add your diced potatoes and your chicken into the veg, and mix well. then add your chicken stock until everything is covered (maybe a litre or so?) and leave to simmer for at least half an hour, and then until the potatoes are fork tender and it tastes amazing
