The Rabbi is like a health inspector, but he's following Leviticus and the Talmud instead of the state health code.

@stavvers this was both legitimately informative (wasn’t under the impression that a rabbi had to bless food to make it kosher but had never heard their role as an expert in Judaism explained in that way before)

and also worth reading just for the wordplay.

@stavvers

I feel like "away" would be proceeded by yeet, rather than yoink.
For me, yoink is a grabbing and bringing close.
😀

@stavvers if your theology is any good at all, these are the same thing
@stavvers TIL that having a partner with a PhD in developmental psychology *is* quicker than Googling
@stavvers So good! Took about 2 seconds to cut through 35 years of memories back to my cognitive and developmental psych classes!
@stavvers oh man I had to dig deep back in my memory to get this one. Outstanding. @TidalFlats
@stavvers Aaaaaaah, funny and also painful. Like wire mother.
@stavvers I cannot in good conscience boost this to all my followers, not knowing which are not terrible human beings, but I sent it to all my appropriate friends.

@stavvers Himbos, according to Overly Sarcastic Productions, require four attributes:

~Respecter of Women
~Pure of Heart
~Dumb of Brain
~Big of Muscle

Any way we define it, Kronk is always #HimboGoals

@SpandexBastard @stavvers can’t have 2) without 1) though, so we can scrap 1)

@Sjors @stavvers Respectfully, I disagree. Making "Respecter of Women" a separate requirement preceding "Pure of Heart" centers the needs of equal rights of women (and by extension Trans women) in a Himbo's existence.

Using Krok's gold standard, we are introduced to him first as a Respecter of Women, as Yzma's bodyguard. Only by his actions later in the movie do we see he is also Pure of Heart.

Thus, Respecter of Women first, Pure of Heart second.

@stavvers @SpandexBastard thanks for expanding. 😊 I get your approach, but I don’t see it hierarchically. If you state that all 4 criteria must be met, then failing even one voids the himbo status. For me, one cannot have a pure heart without being a feminist. And I could list more criteria (kind to the elderly, anti-racist, etc etc) but that would just muddy the waters. Even pure of heart is too specific for me, I’ll stick with “kind” (not being the same as “nice”).

@stavvers @Sjors I invite you to check out OSP's Himbo tier list episode on YouTube, where they talk about that definition, what makes a himbo, what doesn't...

My takeaway from their discussion is himbo, like any other label, doesn't come with a stark binary, but rather is aspirational. I certainly don't consider myself "pure of heart" or "big of muscle," but I do consider myself a feminist. I'm still a himbo because I consider myself one.

@stavvers I'm a decent mouse!...well, I think. Let's just stick with "a mouse" for now and we'll come back to the "decent" bit at a later date 😅
@stavvers pacman, but you eat radishes to be able to run.
@blinry this ☝ reminded me of your diet diary posts :D

I just came by this explainer, why Americans have no clue about cooking water

for one 115V << 230V 💪
but the main reason seems to be, that they just have no clue about tea

@stavvers

Why don't Americans use electric kettles?

YouTube
@number137 I know this would be the @TechConnectify video before seeing the thumbnail 😁
@stavvers actual tears
@littlerachyb it remains my favourite thing on the internet
@stavvers I've seen that before. Still brilliant!
@stavvers
I conclude these folk are Americans - mainly because they don’t have an electric kettle. And also because, well, you know…
@stavvers @SteveJonesnono1 This is without doubt the best thing I’ve seen on Mastodon to date
@stavvers
This thread literally breaks in everything I've tried to open it in to read all the delightful memes - Fedilab, mobile web, desktop web. Congrats on making a thread so long Mastodon can't handle it, I'm both impressed and disappointed (the memes are great, I just wish I could read them all!)
@kittyc
@stavvers On the one hand, this is some brilliant poetry. On the other hand, clowns almost always speak in blank verse. All four of them declaiming in iambics is rubbing me wrong.
@stavvers Oooh -- delightful and ridiculous! The Bard would approve...
@stavvers lmao moth is catching a stray they don't deserve by being lumped in with the other three but that makes it even more Shakespearean

@stavvers the alternate version we sometimes sing ends with "...the condom had a hole!" at the end!

If my friends and I are feeling particularly dramatic we sometimes morph into the end of Advance Australia Fair - you can go straight from "no say in it at all" to "For those who sail across the seas, with boundless plains to share..."

Birthdays are great!
