A Helping Hand (Seokjin)

Fat feeder Seokjin publishes a feedism cookbook.

They're all his own recipes. "Lovingly made and self-tested!" He pats his belly proudly. "Every recipe is delicious and specially designed to fatten." Seokjin beams. "Whether it's for you or a loved one, you'll swell with success!!"

Over the years of gaining himself and helping countless feedees, Jin has carefully crafted all of his recipes, modifying them specifically for gaining. He imparts his years of knowledge and experience for eager gainers, for singles and couples alike.

His feedees have always seen instant results, and now he wants to share his feeding methods. Jin has always been enamored with how each person gains fat differently, and he's become skilled through the years of altering his cooking depending on what type of chub his feedee (or himself) wants to encourage.

Jin's cook book is curated with the most successful recipes for different kinds of growth. He has the book broken up into recipes organized by what type of fat the reader wants to gain. Instead of "breakfast, mains, sides, desserts", his book is organized by the results the reader wants, with chapter headings like: "Soft Squish; Face and Double chin; Belly; Firm Fat; Love Handles; Arms and Chest; Bottom Heavy; Curves and Rolls; and 'Great for Beginners!'"

It's incredibly obvious how much his book is a labor of love, backed with impressive experience. Jin has tons of notes written in the pages explaining how each recipe settles into different types of fat depending on the ingredients, and lists of what to eat and when if someone wants a whole-body balanced gain rather than focusing on growing one area.

Jin writes in his book things like, "this dessert is great for a plump, jiggly lower belly." And on another "this burger will help thicken up anyone who is lusting after firm fat. Pairs excellent with fizzy beer. Great for gas!"

Aside from the indulgent recipes and nuggets of knowledge, the photos in the book are to die for. Jin spent months perfecting them so each page makes the reader's mouth water and motivates them to try cooking it themselves. Everything looks so decadent and delicious. Even Jin thinks that his book is irresistible.

The portions are strategically just the right size to leave a feedee comfortably full. Jin doesn't want them hurting. His recipes work because of how calorie-heavy they are. Everything is carefully sized to slowly grow a feedee's stomach and appetite. To make their belly push out warm and rich after their meal so they're satisfied and full of the most fattening cooking they've ever had, but not so heavy as to be in pain.

People can get results that they want by following different recipes. Creamy desserts for rich belly fat and curves. Hearty, greasy savory food for thick guts and fat hips. Pastries and pies for bottom heavy babies. Salty snacks for helping out a doubled chin. And whole feast to share on holidays when feedees get together.

Jin usually accompanies each recipe with instructions for after eating too. They never stop at "enjoy!" They are filled with tips and tricks that Jin has found most effective in his years of feeding.

"You'll want to lay down and nap after this one, so best to have it at night. Did you know that you get fatter if you fall asleep on a full tummy!"

"Eat this one slowly. It's tempting to chow down, but it's incredibly rich. This should be halved (and shared 😏)."

"These sugary pancakes are designed to stuff you with calories but then leave you hungry in just an hour. Pair with a hearty, greasy burger so your tummy doesn't get rumbly."

"Eat this one as quickly as possible so you can fit seconds in before it expands in your stomach. Have a friend on hand for belly rubs. You'll need it for this one."

Jin includes 'weekly meal plan' examples with specifically designed diets for small gainers, ones for big gainers, and one for the incredibly motivated piggies. He's perfected each one. Jin balances out the recipes so they don't feel ill, but steadily fill out and fatten up.

Jin doesn't just stop at print copies. He's launching the first ever cook book specifically designed to help people thicken up rather than lose weight, and he spares no expense. He wants his book to be encouraging and become a safe space for anyone trying to gain. He even designs a website linked in his cookbook where people can post their experience. He creates an online community where people can say which recipes they love and how effective they are. They update their progress and can even send in questions to Jin, who always replies with encouragement and teasing. He develops a whole collection of piglets who happily post when they're fattening up and how much they love Jin's cooking.

Every morning, Jin sits down with a cup of coffee and reads through the new posts on his website. He beams at how he's helping so many people get comfortable and fat. Jin comments on as many posts as he can, praising them and leaving tips for how to best plump up. There's so much demand for new recipes as Jin's piggies graze through his cook book and steadily fatten, that Jin starts a streamed cooking show where each month, one of his lucky fans is invited to join him.

Jin always introduces the guest feedee like they're his personal feedee. Beforehand he learns about them (they have to fill out a long quiz he made so he can get to know them, and they can all consent to the stream), and then he can host his cooking show like this excited little chubby is his own personal favorite pet that he gets to spoil and pamper for a whole evening.

He whips up a brand-new personalized recipe each month and explains how this meal will help the feedee get the results they're craving. His audience comes to the cooking show for the new recipes of course, but they stay the entire stream to watch the lucky feedee get stuffed with their own, specially-designed fattening meal by Jin.

After dessert, Jin always makes sure that his feedee is treated like royalty. He rubs their belly while they're full and sated on the couch, and tells the audience how many calories are in the feedee's belly right now. How many pounds they can expect to gain in the next few days. He does some math while patting their plump gut and making sure that his cooking is settling in comfortably.

Jin spoils his viewers so well. They keep coming back to the streams in hope that they'll be the lucky one randomly picked for the next month's cooking and stuffing episode. While the food is the main event, everyone drools as their favorite round feeder grows bigger with each season.

A Sardinian soup with fregola and white beans

A Sardinian soup with fregola and white beans A Sardinian soup with fregola and white beans: As chef Luigi Crisponi stood in his Santa Rughe restaurant in Sardinia, he insisted there was nothing he can educate about s’erbuzzu. The brothy but nonetheless thick soup — a specialty of the Italian island — is simply manufactured from greens, beans, and tiny, chewy nuggets of pasta. “There isn't any recipe,” he stated. “There’s simply herbs.” As many as 14 herbs, in truth, a lot of them foraged bitter greens. With just a little perseverance, he gave in. White beans soak in a single day, then slowly simmer with a little bit of browned pancetta. Then the greens, finely chopped, are simmered till the beans are prepared. Simply earlier than serving, the cheese and a little bit of fregola — the small, pellet-like pasta Sardinia is thought for — are stirred in. Simply sufficient to thicken the broth. It was daring, but recent, natural and lightweight, traits we mimicked for the recipe in our e book “Tuesday Nights Mediterranean,” which options weeknight-friendly meals from the area. We narrowed the listing of herbs and greens to these we felt had probably the most affect: parsley for grassiness, tarragon for candy anise notes and arugula for pepperiness. We additionally used pancetta to construct a savory spine and ricotta salata cheese, as Sardinians do, for complexity. When you can’t discover fregola, substitute an equal quantity of pearl couscous, however cook dinner it for less than 5 minutes earlier than including the beans, parsley and garlic. And if ricotta salata just isn't out there, finely grated pecorino Romano is an affordable swap, however halve the quantity. Sardinian Herb Soup with Fregola and White Beans (S’erbuzzu) Begin to end: 45 minutes Servings: 4 Substances: A Sardinian soup with fregola and white beans 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra to serve 3 to 4 ounces pancetta, chopped 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley, stems minced, leaves roughly chopped, reserved individually 1½ teaspoons fennel seeds ½ cup dry white wine Kosher salt and floor black pepper 2 quarts low-sodium hen broth ¾ cup fregola (see headnote) 15½-ounce can massive white beans, reminiscent of butter beans, rinsed and drained 3 medium garlic cloves, minced 4 ounces ricotta salata cheese (see headnote), crumbled (¾ cup) 4 ounces child arugula (about 6 cups frivolously packed), roughly chopped ½ cup frivolously packed recent tarragon, chopped Instructions: A Sardinian soup with fregola and white beans In a big pot over medium, warmth the oil and pancetta. Prepare dinner, stirring often, till the pancetta is browned, 6 to eight minutes. Stir within the parsley stems and fennel seeds, then add the wine and 1 teaspoon pepper, scraping up any browned bits. Deliver to a simmer over medium-high and cook dinner, stirring, till many of the moisture has evaporated, 2 to three minutes. Add the broth and convey to a boil over excessive. Stir within the fregola and cook dinner, stirring often and adjusting the warmth to take care of a simmer, till the fregola is simply shy of tender, about 10 minutes. Add the beans, garlic, parsley leaves and half of the ricotta salata, then proceed to cook dinner, stirring often and adjusting the warmth to take care of a naked simmer, till the fregola is absolutely tender, about one other 10 minutes. Off warmth, stir within the arugula and tarragon, then style and season with salt and pepper. Serve sprinkled with the remaining ricotta salata and drizzled with further oil.

"The contingency of photographs confirms that everything is perishable; the arbitrariness of photographic evidence indicates that reality is fundamentally unclassifiable. Reality is summed up in an array of casual fragments - an endlessly alluring, poignantly reductive way of dealing with the world."

- Susan Sontag

We seem to barely hold on to the technologies we create. The moment we unleash it, it runs away and tells US how we should behave instead of the other way around.

Now that we find ourselves face to face with the unreality of Ai and all that it will potentially disrupt, it is even more important to be aware of how powerful images can be.

We are still trying to make sense of photography - the Point Zero - the building blocks that thicken our modern environment.

We are still reeling from the introduction of the internet that has fundamentally changed how the world operates.

Now we are facing the next evolution which will exponentially raise the stakes.

And we seem poorly prepared - it’s shocking to see how people take images that one would think are OBVIOUSLY fake - as reality....gawk over Ai art that is vacuous, saccharine and sentimental.

And I'm a Concept Artist, we specialise in a lot of that. 😅 The Ai is not coming up with this by itself! We created the beast. 😬

But at the very least WE were/are responsible for it, and unable to pass blame to a nebulous algorithm...

Or maybe it's going to free us to do more meaningful things…

Maybe visual literacy courses should start being mandatory in schools.

Lots of maybes…

There are many great writings on images and how we have been dealing with the “crisis of photography” in the age of mechanical and now digital reproduction.

The preface to Guy Debord's "Society of Spectacle" is a quote by Ludwig Andreas von Feuerbach - from 1841 - that hits the perfect note.

“But certainly for the present age, which prefers the sign to the thing signified, the copy to the original, representation to reality, the appearance to the essence... illusion only is sacred, truth profane. Nay, sacredness is held to be enhanced in proportion as truth decreases and illusion increases, so that the highest degree of illusion comes to be the highest degree of sacredness."

I've been, for a while now, slowly trying to pick out the nuggets from books and share it as part of learning and understanding myself.

@notesonphotography (Instagram)

I plan to continue this as long as I can, and if I do stop, it will not be for the lack of material, as the amount of literature on this subject is overwhelming, increasing exponentially as we try to make sense of a world that slowly reconstructs itself into its doppelgänger - that of one vast mirage.

I can’t say it better than the descriptor by Roland Barthes “I am trying to render the special quality of this hallucination”

[theenchantedecho]

Is there something going on between Gilderoy and Kieran? I saw them walking down Diagon Alley looking cozy before heading into his apartment.

LOCKHART AND KIERAN: AN ALLURING ALLIANCE OR A BLOSSOMING BROMANCE?

Oh, dear readers, your trusted correspondent, Rita Skeeter, has received quite the intriguing nugget of information that's causing more stir than a Bludger in a Quidditch match! A charming confluence of circumstances has placed the renowned Gilderoy Lockhart and the enigmatic Kieran in the heart of our magical chatter.

The charisma-dripping Lockhart, with his history of thrilling exploits, has not only drawn the spellbound gazes of witches and wizards but also a handsome share of skepticism. And Kieran, with a persona as mysterious as the depths of the Forbidden Forest, holds secrets that can make even a Sphinx curious. The image of these two ambling down Diagon Alley, looking cozier than House-Elves in a sock emporium, stirs an intoxicating blend of questions.

Could this be a simple intermingling of magical minds or something spicier? Were their murmured exchanges just discussions about the latest broomstick models, or were they whispering sweet sonnets in each other's ears? The mind whirls faster than a well-executed Tarantallegra!

Their shared journey into Lockhart's apartment thickens the potion, doesn't it? Were they conjuring up a revolutionary charm or brushing up on their wand movements over a shared bottle of Elderflower wine? Were they preparing to co-author the next "Magical Me" or baring their souls (and perhaps more) in an intimate game of truth or dare?

Whatever the truth may be, this steamy scenario has sparked imaginations and spurred chatter all over our magical world. Is this the start of a powerful alliance that could shake the wizarding world? Or are we witnessing the blossoming of a charming bromance bound to fuel water-cooler gossip for weeks to come?

Rest assured, dear readers, this is one magical mystery your faithful correspondent won't let disappear under an Invisibility Cloak. Whether it's a professional partnership or a bewitching personal entanglement, I, Rita Skeeter, will be there, quill poised, to unravel the truth.

So, keep your Extendable Ears at the ready and your Gossiping Goblets filled. Remember, in our enchanting world, alliances can be as mysterious and thrilling as love affairs. Until our next magical musing, stay bewitched, dear readers! @kieranollivander @magicalmeee

TAGGING: YOU

[pocket-size-cthulhu]

Hey you. Yes you. Do you have a love/hate relationship with vegetables. Do you kind of secretly wish you could still live on chicken nuggets and mac and cheese like when you were a kid. Are you an optimistic vegetable buyer who ends up with a lot of veggies you don't know what to do with.

I have a resippy for you. It is called

✨ orange sauce ✨

It's an all-veggies, accidentally-vegan, super-versatile, weirdly delicious, extremely forgiving, easy/hands-off sauce recipe.

Ingredients:

Tomatoes (I usually use about 8 Roma ones)

Bell pepper (I usually use one large or two small ones)

Onion (I usually use one medium one or half a large one)

1 head garlic

1-2 jalapenos or your fave hot pepper (optional)

Olive oil

Salt

Lemon juice

MSG (optional)

Cayenne pepper (optional)

It sounds like a lot but it's not that bad.

You can also add other veggies to this if you want. What's getting squishy and sad in the fridge? Throw it in.

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to about 425°f

Cut up your veggies except the garlic in large, rough pieces and place on a baking sheet (lined with parchment paper if you want to save yourself a mess)

Drizzle with olive oil and season generously with salt. Give those veggies a lil massage ✨

Chop the top of the garlic off and drizzle it with salt and olive oil too

Bake for 20-30 minutes or until everything is very soft. Optionally finish with 2-3 minutes of broiling to get some crispy edges 🤌

Dump all but the garlic into a blender, including the jüice

When the garlic is cool enough to handle, squeeze it so the soft cloves slide out; pick out any loose skins; and add garlic to the blender

🌪️ blend it up 🌪️

While it's blending, slowly drizzle in some olive oil to thicken. (You can skip this if you'd rather eat this as a delicious smooth veggie soup! You could eat it as is or even add broth or cream or something...)

Taste for seasoning. You'll probably want to add salt, you'll def want to add MSG if you have it, and you can add cayenne if it's not spicy enough for you. Finish with a splash of lemon juice to taste.

Tada! You now have a beautiful batch of orange sauce. What to do with it? You can use it as a pasta sauce, a dip for crackers or bread or other veggies or your chicken nuggets, a spread for sandwiches...

The recipe is super forgiving and it's mostly in the seasoning step. I just keep fiddling with the seasonings until I have no choice but to admit it's freaking delicious.

Personally I make pasta with it because with a sprinkle of Parmesan, it's almost at the level of comfort food as mac and cheese for me 🥰

[ladyloveandjustice]

A lot of information nuggets dropped here! Kyubey isn’t the only guy out there turning being a magical girl into a gacha game (what DO they get in return for slaying demons? More power?), and something definitely going on with Shamiko’s dad. He’s the one Shamiko inherited her demon blood from- is he part of some demonic army? Has he been captured by magical girls? That would explain the barrier and why Shamiko’s mom is lying about it.

But yeah, it’s no wonder Momo would have problems with other magical girls. She mentions that most of them don’t go out and kill demons for those sweet high scores any more, but that system definitely incentivizes killing demons for greed rather than protecting people. Did her sister get caught up in it too?

We leave this session with a lot of questions! The plot is definitely thickening, and maybe we’ll have more answers in our next session before the end of the month!

[ragnarlothcat]

Not me reading all your fic snippets a minimum of three times each!!! You really have blessed us the past few days with all these little golden nugget of fic insights- I can’t beGIN to tell you how excited I am for each and every one! But please bless us again and tell us more about I got it bad or devils in the details. (And if I’ve messed up and either one of these has been done before, can you choose a different one 🥺🥺🥺🙏🏻)

Hello friend!!! This is so sweet of you and I'm sorry it took me a million years to get back to you (about this wip game)

I was going to post the snippet for The Devil's in the Details but when I went to reread what I had I realized I didn't like it enough to keep. So I started again! Chapter 9 is very much a transitional chapter setting us up for the next...act? But here's a little bit of what I've got (it's just demon silliness and the odd Oscar Wilde quote)

The ensuite is a little dated but still very spacious. Spacious enough for two men, or man-sized beings of indeterminate origins, to get situated.

Obi-Wan passes his tongue across his teeth and gestures towards the clawfoot tub in the corner. “Start the water, darling, I’ll be a moment.”

Anakin’s mouth might be infernally clean but if Obi-Wan’s going to tongue-fuck him like he wants, he ought to freshen up. He brushes his teeth perfunctorily and bends to spit, then straightens up—

And startles, his toothbrush dangling stupidly in his mouth. For a split second he thought he saw Anakin’s golden eyes in the mirror.

But no. Anakin has taken Obi-Wan’s moment of distraction to slip into the shower and delightedly stretch against the tiles. Water darkens his curls, sluices down his strong back and lovingly curves over his perfect ass. A small part of Obi-Wan thinks that they really ought to close the shower curtain if they don’t want to flood the bathroom and ruin the downstairs ceiling.

A larger part of Obi-Wan thickens in interest at the sight of his little demon standing there naked and wet.

“Anakin, you are being unfair,” Obi-Wan scolds, minty foam still clinging to his lips. “How am I supposed to concentrate on oral hygiene now?”

“I couldn’t say,” Anakin says, prodding at Obi-Wan loofah curiously. “I am self-cleaning, after all.”

Yes, like an oven. Obi-Wan thinks he should find that off-putting, that his boyfriend (boyfriend?) is so regularly burning out the inside of his mouth. But then, Qui-Gon’s done much weirder things than that and he’s entirely human. Probably.

And besides, Obi-Wan is in favor of whatever keeps his darling’s mouth free of spider remnants.

(Obi-Wan prides himself on his pragmatism sometimes.)

Obi-Wan throws his toothbrush to the sink blindly, unwilling to look away from Anakin long enough to put it back in its holder. “Look at you,” he says, enthusiastically heeding his own advice. “You are temptation incarnate.”

“As I’ve recently been reminded”—Anakin grins and opens his arms wide in invitation— “The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it.”
