I have four muffin tips for making bakery style muffins at home.
Tip number one:
Rest your batter for 15 minutes in your mixing bowl after you make it. This is gonna allow the starch molecules to swell and absorb, creating the thicker batter and the thicker batter is known for doming!
Tip number two:
Fill your muffin holes with at least six to eight tablespoons of batter. That’s like a heaping half cup okay. You want them super full so they’re gonna create that dome.
Tip number three:
Kinda goes along with tip number two. You’re only gonna fill every other hole in your muffin pan. And why we do that – that’s so the muffins that are baking can spread and dome without running into their neighbors. Because when they run into their neighbors they get like square edges but we want perfect dome circles.
Tip number four:
You’re to bake your muffins at a high temperature initially. That’s gonna be 425*F for the first seven minutes. And then keep them in the oven and lower the temperature to 350*F for the remaining bake time. Starting the muffins off at a high temperature initially allows the muffins to rise rapidly and it sets the outer surface of the muffin, producing a dome shape.
There you have it. My four muffin tips for creating bakery style muffins.
I understand the value of artistic liberties but what exactly is Yugio’s haircut supposed to be. I’ve wondered this since childhood
Yes yes yes its just supposed to look interesting and cool, it’s not supposed to translate into the 3D space, but if it did what would it be
As we can see above, this haircut:
Is dark in the back, blached in the front
split into minimum two groupings: Body and Bangs
Spiked in the back, likely with the use of gel or styling mousse
Obviously this is an anime, and as other features such as eyes, ears, and legs are exaggerated I feel it is safe to interpret the length of hair as exagerrated as well.
This is a convenient assumption because otherwise, spiking shoulder-lrngth hair into seven (minimum) rigid vertical spikes would be impossible to maintain.
Assuming a real-life Yugio haircut could exist as inspiration got this style, I imagine a haircut that is either short and spiked in the back with natural bangs, or long in the back and textured with shorter bangs to frame the face. Either way, either the front is bleached, or the additional blond spikes in the back could be interpreted as highlights throughout the darker, perhaps natural hair.
Given these criteria, I have narrowed the possibilities dow to these three hair styles:
For research purposes please enter your interpretations to the poll attached below
So there is a definitive answer for this, according to the people I know who Cosplay Yugi/Yami of Yugioh and style wigs for it: They start with No-Bangs Bobcut , Dye it the appropriate colors but in the same pattern as “That Thing” (AKA ‘White bangs") above, usually by applying sucessive layers of warm colors (yellows, then reds, then warm blacks), and then Gel into a Hyper-Karen Bob.
So it’s a Red-shift-White-Bangs-Hyper-Karen-Bob cut-and-color, and that’s one hell of a mouthful, so it’s fine to just call it a Yugioh for short.
I think I may have a guess for this
Yugi and Atem have slightly different hair, with Atem having a more extreme version of Yugi’s hair. However, it is important to note that there is likely no actual physical difference in Yugi and Atem’s appearances. His close friends, before finding out Atem existed, simply noticed that Yugi seemed more confident, not that he got taller, voice changed or hair changed. So that might not be diegetic, but a difference for the audience’s sake.
It’s also worth noting that anime tends to exaggerate things, particularly hairstyles. So in reality, Yugi’s hair may be less like this:
Can we talk about how a seriously concerning number of people are drawn to social justice not out of the goodness of their hearts but because there are prevalent circles within the social justice community that actively reward and encourage behavior that is nearly indiscernible from bullying and harassment with reassurance that it’s the ‘right and just’ kind?
these tags r too accurate to not include
Hope you don’t mind that I included your tags, I’ve seen this exact thing. I’ve even been on the receiving end of this stuff just for refusing to go along with callout post culture.
Mira Sorvino: I just made [Romy’s voice] a little bit lower because I felt that Romy is the guy in the relationship. She’s the John Wayne in her head. So it made sense to have a more masculine tenor to her. And I wanted her physicality to feel like a football player in drag. Like, when you see her marching to places in her high heels, it shouldn’t ever look graceful.
*throws some patterns in your face* These will all be lanyards and probably gold foil washi tape as well. Pattern inspiration from top to bottom: Ukrainian egg dying, Chinese blue porcelain, Japanese kimono motifs, the locked tomb, Norwegian rosemaling
Citizens United is not the problem, Buckley v Valeo is. That was the case that legalized bribery by claiming that campaign donations have first amendment protections – that “money is speech.” After that, the only barrier oligarchs had was campaign contribution limits, which Citizens United offered one way around.
If Citizens United is overturned but Buckley v Valeo left standing, bribery and corruption will still be legal and all oligarchs will have to do is find another way around contribution limits. The focus on Citizens United and “corporate personhood” is a distraction from the actual source of what is happening.
ohhhhhhhh my god you cannot make“teehee girls just use a different kind of math around shopping to justify buying more stuff cause they’re girls using girl math” into a feminist statement it IS an actual problem to ascribe not only gender (woman) but childishness (girl) to poor financial literacy and say that the kind of math girls do is actually exclusively related to the domestic sphere when we talk about shopping or buying food or presents or little treats. Do you fucking hear yourself
No I’m still mad. I know exactly what the joke is I just don’t find it funny. We’ve had the right to our own bank accounts for 50 fucking years (that is younger than my mother) and currently the party in power wants to take that away from us along with bodily autonomy and no-fault divorce. They don’t want girls learning math they want them learning enough to run a household and keep buying shit forever and then have kids and never get an education.
When people make jokes about how girl dinner is eating less food or girl math is about getting discounts when you shop or I’m just a girl means you make poor life decisions and can’t take care of yourself, people laugh at those jokes. But most of the people who laugh at those jokes are not joining you in sisterhood. They are laughing AT you because they agree with the message you are communicating about women. They want to take your fucking rights away and you are making it easier for them with this constant fucking self-infantilisation. It’s a joke until the exact moment it’s not which is why it isn’t funny to begin with. We are ADULTS we are WOMEN not girls. “Girl math” is calculus. Fuck off.
Voluntary Recall of Northwest Naturals Brand 2lb Feline Turkey Recipe Raw Frozen Pet Food Due to HPAI Contamination
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE-December 24, 2024
Portland, Oregon, Northwest Naturals is voluntarily recalling one batch of Northwest Naturals brand 2lb Feline Turkey Recipe raw frozen pet food after it was tested positive for highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus.
Consumption of raw or uncooked pet food contaminated with HPAI can cause illness in animals. To date, one case of illness in a domestic cat has been reported in connection with this issue.
The recalled product is packaged in 2-pound plastic bags with “Best if used by” dates of 05/21/26 B10 and 06/23/2026 B1. The product was sold through distributors in AZ, CA, CO, FL, GA, IL, MD, MI, MN, PA, RI and WA in the United States, and British Columbia in Canada.
This recall is being conducted in cooperation with the Oregon Department of Agriculture, Salem, Oregon.
some emphasis mine. although it says one batch, it is not listed how big that recalled batch is. given the lengthy list of states (and province), it seems like a lot.
“We are confident that this cat contracted H5N1 by eating the Northwest Naturals raw and frozen pet food,” said ODA State Veterinarian Dr. Ryan Scholz. “This cat was strictly an indoor cat; it was not exposed to the virus in its environment, and results from the genome sequencing confirmed that the virus recovered from the raw pet food and infected cat were exact matches to each other.”
the oregon health authority (OHA) also reports that to date, no human cases of bird flu have been linked to this pet food.
the best by dates of the recalled pet food extend well into 2026, so it is going to be an ongoing challenge to get this contaminated food out of people’s freezers before it can do more harm and cause more pet death.
as always, when it comes to contamination like this, it is likely that more than just the one cat has been or will become infected. whether human or feline, illness from food contamination is very under-reported.
Consumers who have purchased the recalled product should immediately discard the product and contact the place of purchase for a full refund.
For additional information or questions, customers may contact Northwest Naturals of Portland at info@nw-naturals.net or 866-637-1872 from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM PST, Monday through Friday.
