I can’t believe that the sacredness of shared meals is not well known??? 

Mealtime is an extremely important cultural and social ritual. There are psychological benefits for cooking for other people, and serving a meal stabilizes the emotions between the provider and the receiver. Cooking with your partner, like accomplishing any task together, strengthens relationships. Eating together strengthens communal bonds and helps with mental health. Sharing the same food with someone else builds trust, cooperation, and a sense of connectivity. It’s a shame how in our fast paced society we don’t value the importance of regularly breaking bread with one another

Also how can Arthur Conan Doyle write a character like Irene Adler 1891 and have her 1. Outsmart Sherlock Holmes and get away with it and 2. Be in no way a damsel or love interest to Sherlock.. But every modern retelling not only has her be a sexual /love interest character but she is posed as being very very smart… But never smart enough to just outwit him, get away with it and move on? Women can be smart, sure, but no one is allowed to be smarter than Sherlock.

It’s been over 120 years and Irene is, at her best, never as decently treated as the original.

Give me Superman with an awful southern accent. Give me Clark Kent sounding like he grew up on a farm (oh wait). Give me Superman the Journalist using y’all and all y’all and ain’t. Basically just give me Superman from Kansas

And DEFENDING IT.

“No, Lois, it’s not bad English. It’s a descriptive grammar theory and it serves a linguistic function.”

“C’mon, Smallville, are you really defending your use of ain’t?”

“Some of us actually went to class in college. If y’all are gonna give me a hard time about it, I’m gonna fight back.”

Clark making that “oop” noise when he bumps into inanimate objects.

actually this would be a fantastic addition to his secret identity, because if Clark had a super strong accent but Superman didn’t, it would help with the whole, hey-have-you-ever-noticed-Clark-sounds-exactly-like-Superman? thing. 

also, he would totally make the oop noise. but if he accidentally bumped into an inanimate object it would probably crumple. Just picture Superman clipping a brick wall as he rounds a corner and going ‘oop’ as the wall collapses

Just a quick thing I put together. This blew my fucking MIND when my anatomy teacher pointed it out. My drawings instantly got better. You might know it (good for you, I wish I knew it before too T_T) or you might not and it might help you get better.

Reblogging a potentially useful tutorial people might be interested in :3
