the kavetham brainrot is real, I have multiple foreign language tests this week and I’m starting two new courses but instead I’ve been researching architectural styles of the middle east, north africa, and southeast asia to be able to write this akademiya era fic because Kaveh is a genius and a passionate prodigy and I refuse to not write him as such.

after multiple hours of research and a lot of reading, I am now extremely angry and disappointed about how genshin dropped the ball with indo-islamic architecture in the rainforest, it could’ve been so colorful and beautiful and connected to real architecture. but it’s so orientalist in game. ironically the desert is better in terms of architectural adhesion to real cultures. pls ask me about it im going crazy

tonight in Mol𝑙𝑖𝑒’s bubble was super comfortable and finally filled with a Moroccan pillow couch. It’s almost done with the decorations. All I need to do is get an air conditioner and you know just simple or you know SXMPLY decorations ha ha.

Hi, I want to cook more this summer because it genuinely is good for my mental health, so if any mutuals want to drop some recipes in my ask box uh.... 👀👀👀

Also idk i dont quite like the narrative tht i can see emerging tht the moroccan govt puts nothing into soccer bc theyve recently starting to put quite a lot, is it as much as europe or certain south american teams no probably not but theres like scouting tht goes on w kids going back as far as like twenty years ago.

The king has signed off on a lot of stuff in the past ten years to try to i guess improve image n moral of morocco. Like official mural projects not just in places big with tourism but like even probably one of the most unloved by the king bigger city of Meknes.

The lampposts all got a swanky new redesign w the city name and something theyre known for... And theres stuff like the plastic bag ban initiative tht lasted maybe about two years, the push for solar power. N like I'm against the idea of nation states literally i want them all gone basically but also ... They exist rn and since they exist i do cling onto small victories...

having a tummy bug is such an experience bc its 2am i havent eaten in over 24 hrs and all of a sudden im like oh my god i need plain rice (but i cant make it rn bc im too sick)

This is also a bit of a culture query, cos these are all in my house so I genuinely cook with these all (except chicken salt, that's been in my cupboard for ages)

But I'm not from the USA and most people here are, so I wonder if that's similar! Maybe your cupboard is identical to mine. Maybe we use the same stuff but call it something else. Maybe USA has a different relationship with pre mix spices and you use none of it. Maybe you've never heard of pre mix spices. I dunno. That's why I'm asking!

I use plain herbs and spices as well. Especially when making a complex meal I'll do it myself. But I use pre mixes other times, so I'm voting. Voting for a pre mix doesn't mean you don't also use paprika! If you genuinely have no pre mixes in the kitchen tho, then hell yeah, tell me!

Also, I know I haven't listed everything in the world. One, that's impossible. Two, this is a bit of a culture thing so I just checked my kitchen and used those. This selection is representative of me only

(you don't have to be from the USA to vote, obvs, we just all know that's how the results will end up. Please tell me about your spice mixes in other countries!!)

Morrison spice blend: Pepper, tumeric, ginger, cardamom, parsley, salt

Chinese five spice: Star anise, cinnamon, clove, fennel, Sichuan pepper

Chicken salt: Salt, chicken stock, garlic, paprika, pepper, onion, celery

Gluhwein gewurz: Orange peel, cinnamon, lemon peel, star anise, hibiscus, clove

Chimichurri: parsley, garlic, oregano, vinegar, chilli, salt, pepper

Za'atar: thyme, cumin, coriander, sesame seeds, sumac, salt, chilli

Garam masala: coriander, cumin, cardamom, cloves, pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg

Trying to figure out what the fresh hell is going on right now is very difficult when two of the largest claims being made are, according to the major news sources I can find, unverified.

Link at the Forward about claims of rape (discusses claims made by other outlets as well; contains graphic detail of claims made) Link at CNN about beheadings

(If you click through those links, there will be graphic discussion. No pictures of the dead.)

If folks have links to verify things, let me know; all I'm getting are citation circles, which aren't exactly helpful in circumstances like these. Update: Have gotten some clarifying sources on the latter.
