i am still in omgcp brainrot and this fandom has too little aus.

WHERE IS MY PACIFIC RIM CONTENT. Kent and Jack as the rising stars, two drift-compatible pilots who are partnered together, famous for reaching the previously thought impossible drift sync rate of 100%. Slaying kaiju together under the command of Jack’s father and mother, Marshall Bad Bob Zimmermann and Commander Alicia Zimmermann, until the stress of being the world’s best Jaeger piloters and defense agains the kaiju gets to Jack. They desync in the midst of a battle against the first-ever Cat 4 Kaiju, with the stress and arguments leading up to it unbeknownst to everyone, Jack comatose in the cockpit while Kent has to take on the strain of piloting the Jaeger alone and slay the kaiju. And afterwards, while Kent is recuperating from the mental strain of piloting a Jaeger alone - another first - and being hailed as the world’s golden ray of hope, Jack…. disappears.

Two years later Kent hunts down Jack, only to find that Jack’s now the Marshall of his own little Shatterdome out in Providence after ghosting him for two whole years, with the only evidence of him being alive a few prods and sensations from a rapidly-fading Ghost Drift. And when Kent requests a transfer to Providence, he quickly realises a few things -

- one, that Jack is in no way fit to pilot ever again, thanks to the mental and physical damage he suffered in the battle,

- two, he refuses to see Kent even though his transfer has been approved,

- and three, that Jack has moved on and is in love with one of the LOCCENT mission controllers, a guy named Eric “Bitty” Bittle.

(Bittle bakes REALLY good pies. Kent can’t even hate him for that.)

Worst of all, his empty partner spot is going to be reassigned, because even though he’s been defending himself against the recruits in the Kwoon Room with all his might, one of the Ranger pairs in Providence is being dissolved. Snowy is retiring with full honors after wanting to focus on raising his niece, her mother killed in a recent Kaiju attack, which leaves Kent free to be assigned to Snowy’s old partner - Alexei ‘Tater’ Mashkov.

And judging from the way the Russian Ranger slammed him into the mats in the training room, picked him up and called him a “little rat”, Mashkov doesn’t like him, either…

i just have a lot of thoughts about omgcp in the pacrim universe.

Favorite way to eat a potato?

Literally impossible for me to choose. I love french fries (all different cuts), I LOVE mashed potatoes (no peels or corn or peas in them or I Kill You), I love bag potatoes which is where you cut potatoes into thick slices and put them in an aluminum foil bag with onion, garlic powder, butter, salt, and pepper, I also like when you cook a pot roast in the crockpot and you put a packet of onion soup mix into the water with the meat, carrots, and potatoes. Baked potatoes are nice every once in a while, tater tots are okay, hashbrowns in both patty and loose pile form are delicious.

All Hail The Potato

Flying Colors (Eddie Munson | Stranger Things)

Part Two | Part Three Coming Soon!

Summary — The Hellfire Club is screwed if their fearless leader, Eddie Munson, can’t make the grade.

Warnings & Other Tags ➳ Cursing; the Upside Down doesn’t exist here; Eddie is kind of a jerk.

Notes ➳ Word Count is 1,698. ➳ This does not have a ‘Reader’ within the story. Instead, there is an OC named Jenny Campbell (she/her, 18). ➳ Eddie x Valedictorian!OC, a fluffy trope that I really need in my life, so I decided to write it on my own.

Ms. O’Donnell was someone who Eddie Munson could only describe as, well, a total hag. He was so close to finally passing her class, but of course, there was always something in the way. And now this!

“You’re not serious?”

He glared at Ms. O’Donnell and Principal Higgins. There was no way this wasn’t some sort of sick joke! And to bring the Hellfire Club into it?! God, he hated them!

Principal Higgins sighed, “Completely, Mr. Munson. Your grades haven’t improved, so we’ve all come to the conclusion that this would be a good way to motivate you.”

“We all really want you to graduate,” said Ms. O’Donnell, but Eddie couldn’t stop himself from rolling his eyes when she quietly muttered to herself, “believe me.”

“If you don’t get your grade to at least a D by the end of this quarter,” said Principal Higgins, “then your... club... won’t be allowed to hold meetings here any longer.”

Eddie scoffed, “I can’t believe this! What d’you expect me to do?”

He watched as Ms. O’Donnell and Principal Higgins shared a glance with one another. This is just getting better and better, he thought, crossing his arms.

“I mean, can you guys believe this?!” exclaimed Eddie, laughing incredulously. “I swear those assholes wanna ruin my life so bad!”

As he shoved another handful of tater tots into his mouth, his friends from the Hellfire Club gazed at him with worry. They could tell Eddie was trying to play everything off as nothing to be concerned about, but... they were.

If he didn’t get his grades up for Ms. O’Donnell’s class, they didn’t know what they would do.

Dustin Henderson spoke up, “Maybe getting a tutor won’t be so bad.”

Eddie scoffed. Of all things, a tutor was the suggestion that Ms. O’Donnell and Principal Higgins had given him. No way.

“Yeah, right, who’d wanna tutor me anyway, Henderson?”

“It can’t be that hard to find someone.”

Dustin froze as the rest of the Hellfire Club looked at him. Suddenly, somehow, he had put himself up as the one with all the answers for Eddie’s situation. Mike avoided eye contact with him, trying not to get roped into his friend’s new problem.

Dustin was so gonna get him back for that.

“You’ll get me a tutor?” asked Eddie.

As Eddie leaned back in his chair with raised eyebrows, Dustin felt the sudden need to prove himself. Eddie Munson was one of the coolest people he knew. And if Dustin could do him a solid, he’d probably be hailed as a king by the rest of the Hellfire Club.

Dustin looked at Mike again. His dark-haired friend slowly shook his head at him. Don’t do it, Henderson. Don’t.

Dustin finally returned his attention to Eddie, who stared at him expectantly, and then he smiled nervously, “Sure.”

Jenny Campbell.

Dustin stared across the library at who was simultaneously his best and worst option for being Eddie’s tutor.

Why was she the best?

It wasn’t even the end of the spring quarter, and Jenny had already been chosen to be the valedictorian for that year’s senior class. And she was the only one that was offering tutoring sessions at the moment, at least according to the guidance counselor he had spoken to earlier that day.

Why was she the worst?

As a freshman, Dustin knew that talking to a senior like her was off limits. That, and Eddie would probably hate her guts since she was known as one of the most popular girls in the whole school.

He whipped around to look at his friends from the Hellfire Club. Each of them stared back with crossed arms and raised eyebrows.

“I can not talk to her,” said Dustin.

“You dug this grave on your own, dude,” shrugged Mike.

“Lie in it,” said Jeff.

Dustin then turned to Gareth, hoping he would have some sympathy, unlike the others. Alas, his dreams were crushed when Gareth scoffed and shook his head.

“Seriously?!” exclaimed Dustin, throwing his hands in the air with an exasperated expression.

The boys nearly leapt out of their skins when the librarian harshly shushed them. She glared at them over the rim of her glasses before continuing to scan some books on her desk.

“Just do it before the old lady kicks our asses,” demanded Gareth.

Dustin sighed. They were right. He promised Eddie a tutor, so he was going to get him a tutor, damn it! The Hellfire Club was not going down without a fight!

Jenny Campbell blinked in surprise when the chair across from her suddenly screeched! against the floor of the library. She looked at the boy in front of her, raising her eyebrows when he smiled nervously.

“Hi,” he said.

Jenny waited for him to say more, but no more words came from him. A confused smile spread across her face as she closed the book in her hands, and replied, “Hey.”

“I’m Dustin,” he said.

“Oh!” she exclaimed, everything coming together within her head. “Are you the one who asked for tutoring—?”

“No!” he interrupted, leading her to pause with a puzzled expression on her face. “I mean, yes—! Well, sort of—!”

Jenny didn’t have to respond before she heard a quiet voice mutter something along the lines of “Dude!” and when she glanced over her shoulder, she immediately noticed a group of boys by the library doors. Each of them wore the same shirt with the words ‘Hellfire Club’ written in large letters. She recognized two of them, Gareth and Jeff, from some of her classes. The other boy seemed closer to Dustin’s age, leading her to assume that he was a freshman.

When she returned her attention to Dustin, she quickly realized that he was wearing the same shirt as the other boys, “If you’re asking to join your game, I’m sorry, but I don’t know how to play.”

“It’s not that,” said Dustin. “Look, I need a tutor, but... not for me.”

Jenny’s eyebrows furrowed, “Okay?”

“If one of my friends doesn’t get his grades up by the end of this quarter,” explained Dustin, “Principal Higgins won’t let us have our meetings here anymore.”

Suddenly, everything made sense, leading Jenny to ask, “And you want me to help him?”

Dustin’s expression shifted into one of pleading as he clasped his hands together, and begged, “Please!”

After taking his request into consideration for a moment, Jenny gave him a smile, “Okay.”

Dustin looked up at her, and asked, “Seriously? You’ll do it?”

Jenny nodded, “I haven’t had anyone else sign up for spring tutoring, so... why not?”

With that, Dustin leapt up from his seat, knocking the chair to the ground as he cheered, “Hell yeah!”

“Mr. Henderson!”

Jenny looked over her shoulder at the librarian, who was giving Dustin a rather nasty glare. Jenny then quickly whipped around and covered her mouth, trying to contain her laughter. Meanwhile, Dustin was frozen with a fearful expression.

“Sorry, Mrs. Brown,” he muttered, slowly easing his arms back to his side. Before he left, he whispered, “Meet me by the cafeteria tomorrow?”

Jenny uncovered her mouth, still smiling, and answered, “Sure.”

Dustin grinned back at her, “Jenny Campbell, you’re, like, the best person ever!”

“Dude, Jenny Campbell is, like, the worst person ever!”

Gareth, Jeff, and Mike all shared exasperated looks with one another. It was the next day, and Gareth had accidentally let the name of Eddie’s new tutor slip. And Eddie was none too pleased by the revelation.

Dustin was nowhere to be seen even though lunch was nearly over. The three boys, without Eddie’s knowledge, hoped that Jenny hadn’t backed out of Dustin’s deal. But why would she? As far as they knew, she wasn’t even aware that Eddie was the one she’d be helping.

That, and Dustin had told them that she seemed rather nice for a ‘popular’ girl. In his experience with ‘popular’ girls, at least. After all, she didn’t insult them for wanting the Hellfire Club to continue like most of their classmates would have.

And she even thought Dustin was going to ask her to join them.

“Why?” asked Mike.

He really wanted Eddie to explain why he disliked Jenny so much before she and Dustin made an appearance. Correction, if they made an appearance.

“Oh, c’mon, Wheeler!” exclaimed Eddie. “That girl is the definition of forced conforming. With her perfect hair, her perfect house, her perfect car, and her perfect grades—!”

“Man, you really don’t like me.”

Jenny raised her eyebrows, watching Eddie’s reaction to her sudden appearance with amusement. Apparently, she had startled him pretty badly, because he immediately started coughing loudly, trying to fully swallow the tater tots he’d been eating.

Once he had regained himself, Eddie whipped around, his long hair nearly hitting him in the face. Dustin cleared his throat awkwardly when Eddie glared at him. There was no way he was going through with this.

“Guys, this is Jenny,” said Dustin. “Jenny, this is everybody.”

Each of the boys, aside from Eddie, greeted her quietly. Mike even decided to give her a small wave, and then asked, “Where’ve you been?”

“Oh!” grinned Dustin, gesturing to the girl next to him. “Jenny has a lunch pass, so she took me to this really cool burger place—!”

He was interrupted by a loud scoff. Eddie then stood up from his seat, straightening to his full height. He moved so he was standing toe-to-toe with Jenny. He gave her a once-over, and then asked, “How do I know you can even get me a D in this class, Campbell?”

Jenny tilted her head at him, and asked, “Do you wanna keep your ‘hobbit party’ open or not?”

Eddie scoffed again. He bit his lip in frustration when his friends glared at him. He could practically hear their thoughts shouting at him, Suck it up, Munson!

“Yes,” he muttered, returning his attention to Jenny, finally caving.

“Then you’ll just have to trust me, I guess,” she replied, allowing a smirk to slip onto her lips. “Don’t worry, Munson. I’ll make sure you pass O’Donnell’s spring exam with flying colors.”

And with that, their deal had been made.

❛ What the hell happened here? ❜ //Either Cumber or my OC Tater for Fu if that’s alright!

The fact that someone could see him at all would distress most in his position, but hidden as he is from the auspices of the proper authorities who would interfere, even this interaction will most likely go unnoticed.

"What oh what indeed - That's the billion Zeni question, my fine fearful friend!"

Observation and recording data was the longest part of science, and this experiment required a particularly close look: The sky was hailing blood rubies of various sizes all over West City, crashing through windows, into cars, pelting people and sticking to bare skin. Evidently, however, this had been going on for some time - havoc was underway, overgrown over-ferocious pets with gems clinging to their furs and scales were chasing people down in the streets.

The blue outsider, who had thus far been unpelted, had flipped around in the air, so that he was regarding his new acquaintance upside down, an arm outstretched to the ground to hold himself up.

"I think someone should check things out and get to the bottom of this - sayyy, why don't we go for it?"

All Hail the Humble Potato!

With St. Patrick’s Day tomorrow, people’s thoughts are turning to potatoes a little more than usual. The rest of the year, however, people don’t think too much about these humble tubers. They hold such a ubiquitous place on our tables that we take them for granted. So let’s take a moment today to celebrate this underrated foodstuff by unpacking four reasons potatoes are awesome. 1. Potatoes Are Cheap On average, a pound of potatoes costs .95 cents. In contrast, a pound of ground beef costs over $5. Adding potatoes to your meals is a great way to stretch your grocery budget. 2. Potatoes Can Help Your Lose Weight People started getting down on potatoes a couple decades back as the low-carb movement gained steam. Potatoes are starchy tubers. Starch is a carbohydrate made up of numerous glucose units. Our bodies can quickly break down the starch in a potato and convert it into glucose. The fear is that this glucose will spike blood sugar, and high blood sugar will leave you feeling hungry and cause weight gain. But carbs don’t necessarily make you fat; it’s eating a caloric surplus of any food that causes weight gain (and eating a caloric deficit of any food that causes weight loss). Thus a better metric for a food’s “healthiness” than its macro breakdown is its volume relative to its calories. Calorically dense foods give you a lot of calories without filling you up, leaving you feeling hungry and more prone to overeating. Foods that are higher in volume relative to their calories leave you feeling satiated, making it easier to eat less. Potatoes fall into that latter, filling category. While deep-frying and covering taters in butter, cream, and cheese does turn them into an unhealthy, calorically dense food, pure potatoes are high in volume and low in calories: an ounce of Oreos has 140 calories; an ounce of potatoes has 22. It’s hard to overeat plain baked potatoes. Indeed, in one study on satiety, potatoes were found to be the most satiating of foods, even more so than high-protein foods like steak. 3. Potatoes Are Nutrient-Packed Brightly colored vegetables get all the “it’s good for you” attention, while the brown tuber is assumed to be a nutritional slouch. But it isn’t so; potatoes are surprisingly rich in nutrients. A skin-on, medium-sized white baked potato contains: * Vitamin C: 28% of your recommended daily intake — more than an orange! * Vitamin B6: 27% of your RDI * Potassium: 26% of your RDI — more than a banana! * Magnesium: 12% of your RDI * Fiber: ~3.8 grams White potatoes and sweet potatoes are pretty nutritionally comparable, by the way. White potatoes have a little more protein; sweet potatoes have a little more fiber. White potatoes contain more potassium and magnesium; sweet potatoes have more calcium and a big spike of vitamin A. White potatoes have a few more carbs; sweet potatoes contain more sugar. Both are similar in terms of calories. Both are nutritious vegetables, and one isn’t really better for you than the other. 4. Potatoes May Be Good for Your Gut Biome Gut health and gut bacteria are getting a lot of attention these days. Potatoes may contribute to a healthy gut thanks to their resistant starch. Resistant starch is a type of carb that can’t be broken down and digested by the small intestine. Instead, it makes its way through to the large intestine, where it’s then broken down by gut bacteria. This process also helps produce short-chain fatty acids that help nourish the gut microbiome. I eat potatoes with a protein like chicken breast nearly every day for lunch. They fit my macros and are cheap, filling, tasty, and nutritious. So I say on St. Patrick’s Day, and every day: All hail the humble potato! The post All Hail the Humble Potato! appeared first on The Art of Manliness. http://dlvr.it/Sl0kBL
