This is why I get meal kits. Do I need them? No. Can I easily make them myself? For way cheaper? Yes. WILL I??? No.

Other tips: if you are going to buy things that aren’t pre-taxed, you need to make a habit of always doing the prep AS SOON AS YOU GET HOME. it will NEVER HAPPEN if you don’t.

Get the bulk pack of steaks! But you are never gonna eat them before they go bad. If you freeze them in individual ziplocks as soon as you unpack you probably will?

Get the celery, but you need to cut it ALL UP and store it in the fridge in water or it will rot.

And don’t do all tgese at once, get like, one or two prep things a trip. You aren’t gonna get it started if it’s a huge task.

Don’t pass by these tips because you don’t have ADHD! 

These are valid points for the busy parent, the overstressed college student, and the person working the “wrong” shift. 

Real story - I have thrown away SO MUCH meat and produce in my time. Frozen veggies can even be better than fresh, since they are picked when ripe and frozen rather than picked early and expected to ripen in shipping. My local grocer will sometimes pre-chop less-than-desirable veggies and sell them in the discount cooler - a chopped onion is more useful than a whole one! Meat in bulk packs is WAY cheaper, but you have to make breaking up that huge pack part of putting away the groceries. Also, having a place to put the groceries away helps make the process easier. It’s taken me more than one decade of life to figure these things out. 

It’s not lazy if it is efficient. Professionals call it “time management.”

i learned who is the most accidentally famous person ever

Imagine you’re a regular 70 year old Hungarian guy, who, after a satisfactory career as an electrical engineer, has finally retired and is spending his days in peace. I know I’m asking you to get bored even in your imagination but bear with me. It’s about to get fun…

So this one day, some photographer, who happened to see a picture of you vacationing, on a social media site, approaches you for a photo shoot and you comply, because there’s nothing much to do.

You then proceed to upload some of your photos on Google, to see how stock photos work…

..and who uses it. (Uh oh) Because now, things start escalating…

While you’re sitting in your home, punctually maintaining your routine of getting bored, there’s some random guy on some random part of the world, who looks at your stock photo and finds immense potential in it, in your face, in your smile. (And no, he’s not gay)

The potential for the next revolutionary meme. He posts it on Facepunch.

And fortunately for him (unfortunately for you), the meme clicks. So much so, that a Facebook page called “Maurice”, springs up, which gets 10k likes in no time.

When you first see your meme, you find it offensive, but there’s nothing you can do about it, so you let it go (thinking that it’ll die soon). But you duly warn your acquaintances to be more wary the next time they upload their photos on the internet.

But alas, you’re already on your way to the list the most famous memes of all time. There are people on 4chan, who, in a thread dedicated just for you, start theorising that you must be some sad old man who has to work as a stock photography model. Then, an Imgur user goes on to compile notable quotes from the above 4chan thread into a gallery post titled “Hide-the-pain-Harold”, which garners more than 8,80,000 views in just three weeks.

You are now a classic meme template.

Eventually, you decide to publicly recognise yourself on a Russian social media site called “VK”.

You transcend from being bits on the Internet, to actual prints on a coffee mug, on a skirt! Documentaries are made, and articles are published about you. There’s a random Quora user who nominates you as one of the most accidentally famous person from Hungary.

People start recognising you on streets. Some of them now want to get a picture taken with you. You’re a celebrity for wrong reasons. After having lived 70 peaceful years as a harmless guy, you’ve become world famous - as a painter, as a singer, as whatever the next notorious meme maker wants you to be.

You are Arató András, the meme guy. Every single time a stranger recognises you, you acknowledge it with a smile, but there’s an inevitable pain which just cannot be hidden.

So you smile like this,

I feel your pain Harold.

Hide your pain, Harold.

Writers, filmmakers, actors and showrunners are basically telling people that it’s okay to pirate their work. Because once a streaming service decides to pull a show from their catalog, then it’s pretty much gone forever unless someone pirates it.

Yes, buying physical media is important, but a lot of the stuff that’s being pulled never got a physical release.

Or worse, only got a single physical release that is now out of print.

So sick and tired of some people claiming that “Piracy is wrong” or “Piracy is evil” when studios are trying to deny workers a decent living wage.

Studios don’t value art, all they care about is making a quick buck by doing the bare minimum.

Once someone “Outlives their usefulness” their work is quickly discarded and forgotten about.

Oh, you’re pissed that the strikes delayed all your favorite shows and movies? Good! Strikes are meant to be disruptive.

Like I said before, if you personally don’t care about your favorite shows, movies, and games becoming lost media, then whatever. But for me personally, seeing people who are passionate about telling stories get treated like garbage by studios is absolutely heartbreaking.

Argentine activists and law people: despite some uphill battles we have upheld this constitutional article multiple times

some yanqui think tank: I can’t find a law that says Argentina has banned discrimination :/

I just saw a post on Tumblr asking if you’re “allowed” to do something in a story you’re writing. (In this case, a POV shift.)

I just want to sing to the tune of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, “THERE ARE NO RULES. THERE ARE NO RULES. There are no rules there are no rules there are no rules…”
