After twelve hours across five days, I finally finished my Chinese mythology poster design- hoo boy

listen the ONLY part of a mr mime thats edible are the red spots, and thats ONLY after being properly cooked – if you bite into any part of their body while its still raw youll suffer near immediate food poisoning
luckily, just like red kidney beans, the potential toxins are easily to remove provided you take the right steps
once theyve been safely removed from their inedible surroundings, the larger red spheres are ready to begin working with – its worth noting that the smaller spots on the hands and cheeks also fall into this category, but theyre almost always too small to be considered harvesting by most professionals
youll want to start by cutting away any flesh thats still directly touching the pale parts; when in doubt, a wider cut is always preferred. better safe than sorry ! one benefit of working with mr mimes is that, along with many others in their typing, their bodies are held together with physic energy and thus dont require deboning
the next part is going to require boiling in a large pressure cooker- some may find it a challenge to to find a pot big enough to host all the parts, so cooking them individually is fine. remember to follow the instructions to the letter
after theyve been removed and dried, an easy way to text if theyre safe to eat is to cut them in half and check the spongy center – a darkened purple core means theyve been boiled long enough, while any lighter, greenish tints means you probably needed a bit more time
once theyre out of the danger range, you can now safely use them in variety of dishes ! their almost mushroom-like texture means they absorb flavors well, and pictured above is one of my personal favorites
THIS guy though, you can just pop em into your mouth whole. its fine
1. Gungan General 2. Hostage Crisis 3. The Citadel 4. Gungan Attack 5. Prisoners 6. Shadow Warrior (at least twice, implied it was much more) 7. Slaves of the Republic 8. Escape from Kadavo (twice) 9. Crisis on Naboo (twice) 10. Sacrifice (though this was in Yoda’s vision and not real life)
So in conclusion, by the time Revenge of the Sith rolls around, Anakin has been electrocuted a minimum of 12 times. This can cause a host of physical and neurological problems, including lack of emotional control, increased aggression, etc. Strictly speaking, Anakin’s propensity towards having huge amounts of electricity (which should by all rights have killed him ages ago – there’s an entire book where Luke is dealing with the pain associated with Force lightning, whereas Anakin’s just like “whatever, just another Tuesday”) played as big of a role in his turn to the Dark Side as anything else, since it sapped his brain of the ability of cognitive reasoning.
…so are you saying that Anakin might have never joined the dark side if he wasn’t a human lightning rod?
I’m saying Anakin’s cognitive functioning and ability to control his emotions and aggression were deeply impacted by being a human lightning rod, which is the long way of saying yes.
yall out here reblogging only the first half of this but not the important stuff
which dinosaurs do you think might have been able to talk like parrots
Bob Bakker did a talk about vocalizations in sauropods at GSA a few years back talking about how they may have been able to control airflow through their whole neck to vocalize. He described them as having Saxaphones for heads so they can definitely do the back track on an all-dinosaur jazz band.
