TIL that the reason lead levels in children’s blood have dropped 85% in the past thirty years is because of an unknown scientist who fought car companies to end leaded gasoline. He also removed it from paint, suggested its removal from pipes, and campaigned for the removal of lead solder from cans.

okay so here's how you get really good rice (source: asian)
Rinse the rice TWICE with COLD water, and then when you fill the rice pot up for the 3rd time, have the water about an inch or so higher that the level of rice.
it will be soft and fluffy and reheat really well
I will absolutely try this because I yearn for Chinese takeout quality rice so so badly.
I also have a dumb follow up question, but precisely what kind of rice is it that Chinese restaurants use? Of course it's white rice, but I mean when I'm standing in the rice aisle and there's 10 different variations of white rice, what do I really want? I'm rice-savvy enough to know it's not like, jasmine or basmati. But there are so many other categories. Short grain, medium grain, "something which might be sushi rice but is being coy about it". The Hmart near me has like 12 shelves stacked high with rice and I am simply clueless.
A redesign of the original 3 ghost fighting team!
Sam is mixed race (blasian? Maybe —not sure) because for some reason I always thought she was in canon?? Don’t ask me why I have no idea but I love the idea. Also her mother would never let her dye her hair so she wears it naturally strawberry blond and takes out her nose piercing at home. Sam is more into gardening and activism than she is in show and she and Danny bond over gardening and astronomy. She’s pan because I said so.
Tucker is still a geek but he’s got a little bit of a fashionable sense now because I can not stand his old design it gives me hives. He’s more of a computer geek rather than a full techno geek and so he carries his computer is his backpack 24/7. He’s into baseball now and is frustrated that he isn’t able to get onto the baseball team because he’s pretty skinny and has no coordination.
Danny is more into NASA and desperately tries to get his grades up while ghost fighting instead of blowing it off (sadly he’s colorblind and doesn’t know it but it’s okay because he ends up being an astronaut anyway). Danny is the son of two highly intelligent scientists so he used to have really good grades and Mr.Lancer and him got along really well before the accident. He’s also bi and trans because I said so. He doesn’t really like baseball anymore but he and Tucker really bond over it.
I love them.

Would you answer the ancient call?
I got the idea from someone on discord. Optimus going pspspspps to a human like a cat, I would definitely approach idc.
reblog to give the prev a hot chocolate with (optional) whipped cream and marshmallows
on my knees begging you to please look up “squick” if you don’t know it and help bring it back to fandom space by using it. it’s a valuable word we’re missing that through normalizing could solve some of the more prevalent communication issues.
