“I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.” Great line from Silence of the Lambs everyone knows. But most people don’t realise Dr Hannibal Lecter is making a medical joke. Lecter could be treated with drugs called monoamine oxidase inhibitors - MAOIs. As a psychiatrist, Lecter knows this. The three things you can’t eat with MAOIs? Liver, beans, wine. Lecter is a) cracking a joke for his own amusement, and b) saying he’s not taking his meds.

no matter the struggles there is always ao3 in bed
well, that’s escalated quickly
if you think about it, every time we tranquilize animals to transport them safely to another place, we are the sleep paralysis demon
For real bro! Like I'm literally lazy on the campus but this kid is suffering just to live. What the hell? I guess i need to be grateful.

Hannibal - Bedelia’s point of view by FuriarossaAndMimma
Ayat itu singkat, hanya satu hembusan napas saja untuk membacanya; tapi maknanya dalam dan meringkas banyak hal, "Maka hendaklah manusia itu memperhatikan makanannya." (QS 80:24)
Pernah mentadabburi bagaimana jauhnya proses makanan itu hingga sampai di hadapan kita?
Ikan yang beberapa hari lalu masih berenang-renang di lautan lepas, sayuran yang sebelumnya masih menyatu di kebun ranum entah pegunungan mana.
Dan itu semua, sampai ke hadapan kita dan siap disantap. Prosesnya, jalannya, lika-liku rezeki itu hingga sampai pada kita; memesona.
Ibnu Katsir menguraikan dengan tadabbur yang mendalam, dalam makanan itu, "ada bukti: Allah Mahakuasa menumbuhkan tanaman dari tanah yang hitam, maka Dia pun Mahakuasa membangkitkan jasad yang tadinya telah jadi tanah usang dan debu yang berserakan"
masyaAllah...
Suatu hari Rasul pernah bertanya pada seorang sahabat, Adh Dhahhak bin Sufyan namanya, "wahai Dhahhak, apa yang suka kau makan?"
"Aku suka daging dan susu", jawab sahabat itu. Rasul bertanya lagi, "lalu, pada akhirnya makanan itu jadi apa?"
"Ia, akan jadi sesuatu yang engkau pun telah tahu, wahai Rasul...", Jawab Dhahhak dengan sopan.
Ini tanya jawab tentang makanan. Tapi uraian Rasul begitu dalam setelahnya, "Sesungguhnya, Allah menggambarkan dunia ini adalah seperti apa yang keluar dari tubuh Bani Adam..."
Manisnya, asinnya, pahitnya, getirnya; pada akhirnya akan berakhir jadi "sesuatu yang engkau pun tahu."
Dunia pun begitu, kan? Kayanya, kurangnya, tinggi kedudukannya, mapan dan bangkrutnya, kuat dan lemahnya: semua berakhir di liang lahat.
The little boy, although injured and covered in blood, smiling and said, "This is a test from Allah , Allah wants to forgive our sins because He loves us, we will be cleansed and go to heaven." It teaches us an important lesson. 😭
This indeed make my fickle determination strengthened :))
