kittyyy :3

Also, the kiss was a big deal not just because it was gay but because the trans actress was HIV positive. They wanted to show the world that you can't contract HIV just from kissing someone. Bear in mind, the AIDS crisis was still fresh on people's minds in the 90s.

He was required to do this because other players were afraid that they could contract it from him on the court. It wasn't outside the realm of possibility, but nowhere near probable. It was fear-mongering. A ton of people opposed him playing in the 1992 all-star game because of it, though he played anyway.

Don't let recency bias fool you--these things were happening at a scale that most AIDS service orgs, even giant ones like AID Atlanta, couldn't hope to keep up with until there was a way to prevent transmission (which didn't happen until like 2013 and wasn't accessible until later that decade).

Heya! My gf and I are gonna be purchasing a new bed. We both deal with chronic pain and the mattress we've had for years is not making things easier and maybe actively thinking worse. Thing is, we live pay check to pay check already, trying to adjust that cut back where we can, do things cheaper etc. But its hard when you are already struggling. But we are hoping that if we are in less pain and getting proper sleep we can maybe have more energy that can help with improving our lives. We will probably buying one via a payment plan but even the cheapest options are a bit over a hundred dollars a month that we would have to scrounge up. Some dear friends and family have already sent some aid to us, and we intend to use that to put a down payment for it. If you are willing to assist with the down payment or just generally help us pay it off/help with other life payments. I will be listing mine and my partners, kofi, paypal, venmo, and cash app. Feel free to use whichever system you feel safest/most comfortable using. If you can not assist, please consider re-blogging. Thank you. We intend to put the order in on may/25th, but I will probably reblog this often as we maybe paying it off for months to come. and we may even put this as as the pin on our blog.

My Gf had a fall the other day that left a pretty gnarly wound, in addition when we went to urgent care to get the wound checked out we discovered she also had strep. Given that strep affects the throat it is unlikely she will be able to run the paid dm games we were expecting to get us by untill my next pay check this Wednesday.

In addition a bill I thought I had already accounted for has hit and I am 35 dollars in the red.

If you could please consider donating to help us get by and get supplies we need medicine, gauze pads, easy fluids like soup or Gatorade to help her get by untill she can have solid foods again.

You'll need: boneless skinless chicken thighs, buttermilk, creole seasoning, your favorite garlic powder, MSG, paprika and/or chipotle seasoning, black pepper, two ziplock bags, flour, panko bread crumbs, and oil. If you want it to stay extra crispy longer, get wheat dextrin (theres a brand called EverCrisp you can buy online) and mix it in during the breading.

Take the chicken thighs and butterfly them (most grocery bought ones are pre-cut so you can seperate them). Cut several 1-inch slits into the chicken front and back. Generously season both sides with the dry seasoning and pat them gently until both sides are covered. I used a tablespoon of each, mixed it in a bowl, and it covered 8 pieces, front and back.

Place the chicken thighs in the ziplock bags and with either your hand or a rolling pin or whatever you got, flatten the chicken until the ziplock bag is almost paper thin in width. They should be flat enough for just a bit of light to pass through. Add 1 ½ cups of buttermilk into each of the bags being careful not to overflow out of the opening. Close em up and let sit in the fridge for at least two hours.

Mix 1 cup flour, 2 teaspoons of each dry seasoning, 1 cup of panko bread crumbs, and an extra teaspoon of black pepper into a bowl (or another Ziploc,) and drop your marinated chicken, buttermilk soaked and all, into the mixture and fully coat the pieces in breading

Put your oil in a pan and heat it to medium high. For the amount I never measure that well I typically just use enough to reach my first pinky knuckle and because of how thin the chicken gets thats usually enough to submerge. Once the oil is heated, start dunking the pieces in. Put them into the oil and cook 5 min on each side

Let the pieces rest for 2 minutes. Enjoy on its own, on a sandwich, on rice, they're cutlets, go crazy.

Now two things to note:

One, a few of the seasonings are redundant (creole seasoning usually has garlic powder in it already) because I like to get extra flavor in at every step. A salt free creole seasoning blend can help cut the saltiness down

This is a cry for help

needless to say im a fan of homestuck, deltarune, and danganronpa (to an extent), so i have ample experience when it comes to queer/trans headcanons, dubious canonicity, wiki pronoun wars et cetera. i doubt ill actually get very far on writing this but i know theres a good amount to be said here.
