i am not joking we need to force teach cooking in schools. like. it is an essential thing for survival. do you know how easy it is to make things if you know even the bare bones shit about how cooking works. we need to teach teenagers how far you can take an onion and some other veggies it’’s sad that people grow up not knowing how to prepare literally anything. and i’m not talking about oh this home ed class taught me how to make chicken nuggets at home i’m talking about learning the balancing of sweetness and acidity and saltiness and bitterness and shit like that and techniques and oil temperatures and how meats cook. it needs to be taught because it’s literally not even that difficult and it matters so much

The discovery of X-rays is credited to German scientist Wilhelm Roentgen for first detecting the electromagnetic radiations by accident in his 1895 experiments where he was testing whether cathode rays could pass through glass. Not many know this, but Nikola Tesla was experimenting in the same field prior to Roentgen and published his experimental results in numerous scientific periodicals during the early 1890s. Since these rays were still unknown Tesla used the term “radiant matter" to describe these radiations. Tesla produced some of the first X-ray imaging, which he called “shadowgraphs,” but his laboratory caught fire on March 13, 1895, and Tesla would lose everything including all photos and paperwork.
He would later give all credit to Rontgen for the discovery, and throughout the next few years produced some of the best X-ray images that even Roentgen praised. Tesla would also be the first scientist to warn the scientific community about the harms of X-rays, and designed methods to use them correctly.

"I feel like a lot of trans people feel this imposter syndrome, for a variety of reasons. So I'll be here to affirm you. The toys you played with as a kid do not determine your gender. The way you felt as a kid doesn't even determine your gender. My concept of gender now is much more developed then the concept I had of gender as a toddler. I played with dolls as a kid, a lot -- I still collect dolls. I like them. I'm also a man. Sue me (laughing emoji)
When I was a teenage "girl," I wanted a boob job. I wanted to have porn star gigantic boobs. Currently, I bind until my ribs bruise (don't do this). For me, looking back, I didn't feel like I was a girl, but I desperately wanted to, so I could be "normal"— in my 14 year old head, if I had gigantic boobs, I could prove to myself and everyone else that I was a woman, and feminine. Every trans person has a different path, and that doesn't make it fake. Not everyone has the exact same experiences."

Seeing people decide to watch Breaking Bad based on the Tumblr memes is especially funny when they do it specifically for the memes about Jesse, because... well, let's put it this way. Aaron Paul, the guy who played Jesse, was nominated for a Primetime Emmy award for best supporting actor in a drama series for his work on Breaking Bad on five separate occasions, including twice in one season, and won three of those nominations. He was the first person ever to win that award three times for the same role. Like, Jesse's storyline is so viscerally unpleasant that it set industry records.
