sweetbreads
One of my favorite pair of words that don’t get used much anymore is sweetmeat and sweetbread, with the former being candy and the latter being animal pancreas.
The etymology is that meat (from mete) just meant food, and bread (from bræd) meant flesh. Sweet used to mean a more generalized pleasant taste or sensation, rather than more specifically sugary.
You mean an entire empire could have existed a long time ago in a galaxy far far away?
Sean Connery’s brogue on a Russian naval captain
I like how his Highlander character adds Egypt, Japan, and Spain together to produce Scotland.
Sean Connery as Juan Sánchez-Villalobos Ramírez, an Egyptian immortal who has lived for centuries in both Japan and later Spain
Not after China gets done taking away the Stanley Cup!
Yeah but, would having a spaceship have impacted your ability to get married? You could have a spouse and a spaceship!
It was really good. Maybe people in general gave it a miss bc it seemed like MLP? But I can’t see much of the appeal in that and I thought Centaurworld was great.
Sweet Jebus I desperately wanted someone during her deposition to shout “Quiet piggy!” in the middle of her rambling nonsense defending pedos. The chuds would’ve lost their fucking minds.
I hope the school took disciplinary action for that kid filming minors without consent
Scientists have determined that the universe was created by- GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD -bang
When she was rambling about unrelated shit, I wanted to see the reaction if someone snapped at her “Quiet, piggy.”
I’m guessing similar shots of the orange choad were the only things his team of buffoons managed to not release in the “redactions” they’ve been doing
Pete Davidson (RIP his career choices)
What’s he done? I haven’t seen much from him since his comedy special a few years ago.
And yeah, I’ve been loving Jane’s stuff as well. Her songs can be kind of hit or miss but she’s so great in general. I loved how she played off the reaction to the Trumpet mom in the recent sketch
After a long speech like that? Probably.
In luge, being the best is sort of just a height and weight distribution thing. I honestly think a corpse that’s my same shape could win.
The sport needs her. She’s a once in a generation… shape.
Alexander Skarsgard was great on SNL
Make the government fail and then triumphantly point out you said it would fail. Yeah, because you fucking made it fail you dimwit.
Orange McRapepedo can only chase the latest shiny trophy or bribe that gets dangled in front of pig eyes, but don’t mistake him for the incompetence of everyone. JD Couchfucker and the scum like him would absolutely continue dismantling the government, not out of stupidity but so they can sell off the broken scraps to the tech sociopath oligarchs.
“Oh damn, looks like government healthcare doesn’t work, guess we should put Tim Apple in charge of iHealth. Looks like social security money isn’t being distributed efficiently, let’s set everyone up in Sauron Thiel’s Palantir database so things work more smoothly. Education results continue to decline after a pedo protector from the WWE couldn’t run things? Obviously Cuckerberg already has the infrastructure to get everyone into a controlled virtual learning environment, and recess can be spent playing games with loot boxes.”
Really says something about the country that only Truman and Bush 1 and 2 have gotten to around 90%
It’s the distance from the lens to the focal point, as in where the picture focuses on the sensor behind the lens. If you have a very long focal length like a telescope, you can see things further away but the range you can see is very small. With a short focal length you can’t see as far but you can see a much wider view. Check out this chart:
If you get very close to something with a short focal length or far away from it with a long focal length you can get essentially the same picture of a main subject (although what you can see in the background will be different), but even then a short lens will sort of taper your subject closer to a single point and a long lens will widen it. You can see this effect easily on faces: see this gif or this gif or this picture for an example.
TIL some cultures refer to goat as mutton instead of sheep.
