People love to make fun of Archeologists for how often we say objects were used ritualistically, as if we overuse that designation or just say it when we a don't know what something was used for. But that's only because people don't stop to think how full of ritual all of our lives are.
The meme is actually correct for the most part, hotdogs are ritually consumed during baseball games. Lots of people only even eat hotdogs if they're watching baseball. The expectation for us to eat turkey on thanksgiving is another example of us ritually consuming food. Drinking coffee every morning is another ritual we do. Going to the gym several days a week is a ritual.
"Ritual" doesn't necessarily mean "religious."
Plus Size Sewing Pattern Database
I've seen some people on here express interest in making their own clothes, and I recently discovered this database for plus size/size inclusive sewing patterns and wanted to share.
All of the patterns/brands on the list accommodate at least a 60 inch hip measurement, though the actual size ranges and other measurements vary, and there’s even a search function that allows you to plug in your own measurements (both imperial and metric) and find brands that can fit them. The site also does a monthly pattern roundup sharing specific patterns that meet the sizing criteria, which I think is neat.
A lot of these *do* tend to max out around the 60-65 inch range, so it's not the most inclusive for superfats, but it's still waaaaay more inclusive than the big-brand sewing pattern companies tend to be.
For our fat, sewing friends. Like the post says, it's not all inclusive but I'll still celebrate the progress as it comes.
the SOUL is really funny conceptually bc imagine snagging like. God for your plan or something. and on the first day of Operation Kidnap God To Get Your Friend Back it's just kinda confused and wobbling around like its trying to learn how to exist and then it just randomly locks in and starts to really obviously love you and everyone in your town so, so much.
its been like 36 hours max at this point but it loves everyone like it's been here for years now.
and then you throw a bottle of chocolate syrup at it.

A thing I love about the Knives Out "Wastons" is how all of them in some way or another fucked up during the mystery solving. Marta secretly destroyed the tape to cover her tracks and kept lying by omission. Helen got drunk and almost blew her cover several times. Jud was riddled with so much guilt that he kept trying to confess to crimes he didn't commit.
And Blanc never gave up on any of them because he knows what happens when someone hits an emotional rock bottom and didn't let those moment define who these people are in the long run. He just sees someone who needs a friend to hold their hand while they go through the worst week of their lives so they could get shit together and solve the mystery on their own terms and by god, he is fucking right.
