ppl out here complaining that olivier mira armstrong is a ‘strong female character’ in the worst stereotypical sense and yeah ok kinda get it?? but that’s not a problem in a show with cast of like 20 diversely written female characters. the problem is when a writer only writes women as tough ruthless action heroines with masculine tendencies. but women can be like that in real life, and it doesn’t mean she’s badly written

Al: Why are you doing dumb shit?

Ed: In my defense, I was left unsupervised.

and I’ll break their ass down:

• How I feel about this character
• All the people I ship romantically with this character
• My non-romantic OTP for this character
• My unpopular opinion about this character
• One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I love how you’re led to believe that Hohenheim is Cold and Mysterious and Uncaring and possibly the big bad of the series only to find out he’s actually just the Most Socially Awkward Dork in the world

you go from this vaguely ominius uncaring mysterious suave man in Ed’s flashbacks and POV and then you see the flashback where Hohenheim’s panicking because Trisha made him hold the toddler

(not to say that Ed’s view of Hohenheim as distant and absent was wrong, because he didn’t connect with them like he should have as a father and he WAS distant and absent)

it just delights me how well Arawaka paces when she reveals things. the entire first half of fma you’re like, yeah, Hohenheim could be the bad guy for sure, and then only after the ACTUAL bad guy is revealed do we come to understand that so much of Hohenheim seeming aloof was just him being awkward af. How does human connection work again? Trisha, I don’t know how to talk to people. Trisha, it’s been so long. Trisha, help me

hey if you’re in the U.S. and use food stamps or know somebody who does i found this online cookbook that has recipes for eating well on approximately $4/day :o) 

I don’t have food stamps but I need to know how to eat well for $4/day. Thank you for this.

I love this cookbook!

Tips and tricks on how to survive being working class.

I’ve seen this kind of thing before and a lot of them are full of random weird shit you’d never make…because of time constraints or like, it just sounds super gross.

But this one had a whole section that’s just “Things on Toast”. Another that was all about putting crap in your oatmeal to make it better. Those are fairly pedestrian and don’t take forever.

I haven’t looked through the whole thing yet but so far it’s actually pretty practical. Also if you’re broke like me and don’t know how to make Dal, you should get on that. 

I also liked that there’s this at the beginning:

This book isn’t challenging you to live on so little; it’s a resource in case that’s your reality. In May 2014, there were 46 million Americans on food stamps. Untold millions more—in particular, retirees and students—live under similar constraints.

Been there. Done that. Advice on this art is always welcome.

The link above seems to be broken; here’s one that still works.

On foodstamps, and too disabled to cook. Any help is welcome.
