If there’s one thing I know about chefs is that they’re still able to make a banger of a dish while out of half the ingredients, the oven is broken so they’re using a blowtorch, and Joey the kitchen bitch needs saved from getting eaten by the industrial mixer. I’m sure they’ll figure out using a wood stove while taking out their anger towards front of house by butchering a pig

I use Arch btw and it Just Works™️ Switched away from windows a few months ago and it’s been nothing but sunshine. I love having an os that does what I tell it to.

I have to use windows 11 at school and god damn. What a shit experience. I’ve put so much work into forcing my station there to be baseline functional. I’ve used windows my whole life and the number of weirdnesses already required decades of arcane knowledge to work past, and windows 11 is like pouring flaming diarrhea into the mix

Most of the time I fermented garlic in the jar with the peppers, and depending on what I was doing I’d also ferment them with onion, carrots, or pears. You can also use cheesecloth and twine to make a little fermenting tea bag for things like peppercorns and mustard seed to keep in with the peppers.

As for the post ferment my staples were: caramelized onion, honey, lime juice and/or apple vinegar, msg. I’d often add fresh bell peppers for a little brightness, mango or pineapple, fresh or roast garlic, you can really play around in this stage. You can also run fermented honey garlic alongside and add that in after the peppers ferment.

My better recipe notes are going to be harder to find they’re in a notebook somewhere but here’s some of my digital ones. The section header shows what was in the jar during ferment (so like ‘hab + garl’ means habanero and garlic) with the other stuff being what was added post ferment. Ferm juice is the brine, truff is truffle oil. All of these also have an unlisted amount of canola oil I’d slowly add in during blending until the immersion felt right.

If you want to go above and beyond impressing people with homemade hot sauce grab something like these: https://www.nicebottles.com/catalog/5ozwoozyshrinks

I used to make my own hot sauces and printed off custom labels too. Throw them in a woozy with the plastic heat seal and people lose their shit over them

I wrote down a handful of my recipes somewhere if you want any of them

Ffs I get back from school to find this out. I’ll live up to it: dentist farting in my mouth is such a power move I’d be scared not to go back

I would go back to the dentist either if they were farting in my mouth

Shit I forgot to drink water today. Pretty sure I don’t have ADHD but you all save my bacon with the meme reminders

Amusingly I decided to see what my local grocery store has and found this:

TIL Sweden calls it hamburger cheese (I just moved here from the US). I’m pretty sure in the US someone would get shot for trying to take America out of the name though

I’m going to continue to die on this hill: American cheese slices typically have cheddar cheese as the very first ingredient. They are made of real cheese, dairy, and an emulsifier. Basically think of a cheese sauce with a higher melt temp but nobody seems to claim fondue is fake cheese

Are they good though? That’s subjective, I think they go great on burgers, grilled cheese, and ramen. Are they plastic or use fake cheese? No. If you want to be accurate while high horsing about it you could call them watered down congealed cheese though

Edit to add: the individually wrapped ones are an ecological nightmare. The deli deluxe ones are higher quality, not individually wrapped, and don’t even cost that much more. Or just buy not Kraft they don’t need the money anyway and other companies make American cheese slices too. You can even find emulsified cheese slices for other types of cheeses if you want variety on your burgers and grilled cheese

The kindest most caring person I know works in a toy store. Second most is a phlebotomist

Their examples where they’re trying to trick me into not finding things as quickly with a bunch of syntax highlighting worked exactly the opposite for me. Also I use dark theme because I don’t like burning a hole through my retinas from working all day it has nothing to do with highlighting options. This is a very subjective topic being presented as fact to such a degree it feels like satire

Unless I’m missing something about how to use it the text tool in Krita is terrible though. Been designing cards with people the last few weeks and we ended up making the general design and layout in Krita then brought things into GIMP to add text

So I’m no longer a penis haver since I got it removed entirely, but before that I was uncut. In my case I never had anything negative happen health or social. It helped with logistics for sex while going from just starting to everything isn’t quite fully lubey yet, plus it was another bit of sensitive skin to toy around with.

As far as the removal part I am trans and had mtf surgery. Foreskin is analogous to clitoral hood skin. It gave my surgeon more to work with both aesthetically and for adding areas of increased sensitivity.

But really the argument should start and end with “don’t make medically unessecary changes to your kid’s body until they’re old enough to consent”

In my early 30s. It was 2-3 times a week. A couple years ago it was basically every day because my friend group was also the polycule I was in and there were a lot of us. Currently it is back to basically every day because I’m going back to university and my new friend group are all students and I live in a student apartment so we see each other in and out of class.

Edit: actually it’s been basically every day for years now. Somehow forgot I was living with my best friend during the transition from leaving the polycule to moving abroad for school.

What would you suggest instead of newegg now? I’m still using it out of momentum haven’t thought to look elsewhere in a long time

Walk or bike everywhere if possible. Go down any side path that looks safe, explore, poke around, find the interesting things. Go to tourist spots and photobomb people. Pick your nose right outside the window of an incredibly expensive restaurant. Talk with strangers while waiting for stuff (but read the room obviously) they’ll know about stuff to do you never would have thought of. Get engaged in the punk community they’re always doing free things and dirt cheap concerts. Find local musicians in a genre you like that aren’t popular outside regionally and see where they do a lot of smaller concerts, hang out at those places. Walk around community gardens. See what buildings you can get into and figure out if the roofs are accessible. Throw bricks at cops. Volunteer, a lot of times this is as simple as handing out food that someone else already made and you get to meet people and feel like you’re bettering your area. Seriously walk and bike everywhere if you can and be open to taking detours you’ll find so much stuff you’d never have found in a car

Cities want to be explored. They have so much to offer but you need to find it. Sometimes you can stumble into things, sometimes you have to know the right person, sometimes you specifically seek something out so you poke around related things until you work your way there. Keep an open mind and reserve some time whenever you can to just explore. The best stuff will show up eventually even if it takes a couple years

In my experience in Seattle, the people with money pretended to have the most fun. The punks, the poor people, they actually had the most fun. When people don’t have money to throw at impulse happiness they put a lot more work into building a life and community that can stand on its own. This includes mental well being such as finding ways to have fun

Also mushrooms are a cheap way to have the time of your life for 6-8 hours

When I was living in Seattle legal nudity was one of the big perks for me! On hot days I’d go around topless, completely nude sometimes, it was amazing. I am trans so the main concern was from phobes periodically trying to threaten me, and on a couple occasions where I was being a bit more wild with things like waving trans flags around while nude I’d have police called on me. They couldn’t ever do anything about it though no indecency here officer

I’d be old but it’s possible I’d be around to see it, sick

So a couple things, do you have a link where I can read up on the history of betweener labor because now I’m curious? But secondly what are you talking about? What this post or the comments implies anything to do with race? I don’t understand where you’re getting that from

The articles for windows 10 aren’t going to be great either once the security updates stop

Edit I can’t read you’re using the longer supported version
