it is Cookie Clicker's 12TH BIRTHDAY today and as has become tradition i am BAKING COOKIES

this year's theme is unpreparedness. i did Not find the vanilla extract. as a result i've decided to simmer in milk a vanilla bean we had lying around instead (i'm at Opti's house for this. his kitchen is substantially more established) (the other option was infusing the vanilla in vodka for months and i simply do not have that kind of time)

smells so Flippin good

anyway! baking:

some previous years for chocolate chips i tried faffing around with popping bars in a blender which turned out awful and gunky. this time (we're doing classic dark/milk/white) i am simply chopping them with a little knife for lovely results. what was i thinking honestly

i want you

continuing with our unpreparedness theme the kitchen scale was nowhere to be found so i am entirely eyeballing the 30g each lump of dough is supposed to be. not that a little unevenness matters but inequality no matter how small is how man tears at the throat of man

test batch! these turned out thinner and less photogenic than previous years; i was worried the milk may have upset the ingredient balance but i think i just need to chill the dough longer so that's staying in the fridge overnight and i'll be pumping out giant plates of (hopefully nicer-looking) cookies tomorrow. on the plus side these cooled down really fast and also they were delicious. the vanilla milk gambit really worked out i'm very pleased

these guys helped:

being some fucking guy on tumblr is so crucial for me it keeps me humble and, importantly, stupid

i think the worst part of it all is that if you go through the yuri index blog basically every other fandom on there has a higher yuri index score than undertale does

Did anyone ever like attempt to document and compile the variations of Barney the dinosaur murder ballads across the elementary school system in the early 2000s. Like legit it has always fascinated me as a phenomena and I would love to know if there were like traceable regional variations or what.
