Today I Learned: Teeth Are Actually Scales Because We A Secretly Still Part Fish

Town baker who's buff as hell from whisking every batter and kneading every dough by hand. And those who don't respect her at least have the common sense to fear her, because if you don't, she'll knead the air out of you, too. She's the first one in town to start selling gluten-free bread. Save for the one family who requested it from her, nobody in the town knows what the fuck gluten is. Nobody else is allowed to buy the gluten-free bread before she's made sure that this one family has gotten theirs.

Nobody else is entirely sure what gluten-free bread is, but if the baker says there's no fucking gluten in this bread, then that's final, that's all they know about gluten. Nobody knows how she takes it out of the bread, either, but the most popular theory is that she beats it out of the dough, somehow. She makes a dough and then beats the gluten out of it. Yeah, that's probably how these things work.

Once better information starts trickling into town, and people gain a better understanding of what celiac disease is and what gluten has to do with it. But the people do still agree that if anyone could beat the gluten out of bread, it would be their town baker.

Why did invest time into a joke not very many will get?

I mean… I guess I can amuse myself anyway.

(I needed to doodle something silly as the current scene I’m working on for the comic is kinda a downer)

Rhaegar and Lyanna—well, that’s a revelation that will need to wait for later volumes. But if you are uncertain about it, I am glad. That is one thing I wanted to do was suggest the uncertainty of truth. I mean, think about it. In our own world, we don’t even now what happened between Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings … The truth of Rhaegar and Lyanna may be similarly elusive … for a time. - GRRM

GRRM comparing the oh so romanticized Thomas Jefferson & Sally Hemmings to the oh so romanticized Rhaegar & Lyanna is so confusing to me?

- Without question Thomas Jefferson was a real life slave owner and r*pist to teenage Sally Hemmings. Yet American media/“history” was disgusting enough to try and “romanticize the two as a love story” 🤮

Therefore George is either showcasing how troubling the story is between R/L comparing them to a historically monstrous relationship between another teen girl and far more powerful man….or he’s buying into the romanticism? 🤮

Make the silly thing that brings you joy. 🦖🌋

The intarsia charts came from a kids jumper pattern dated 1990, which I've adapted into an adult sized cardigan.

every piece of ""autistic representation"" in hollywood sucks not just because of the infantalization and inspiration porn but because movie executives always fail to realize the real universal autistic experience: spending your childhood slowly and unfalteringly realizing all of your friends not so secretly hated and/or merely tolerated you at best and you've missed every social signal about it ever

“sex/love is what makes us human!” people when then realize other animals do the same:
