One of the things I’ve found that’s helped me is America’s Test Kitchen. Seriously. They test everything thoroughly, explain why things work and what’s commonly done wrong, and give good clear instructions for doing things.
I’m a stimulation seeker when it comes to food, but I also have the need to understand why recipes work or fail. I made ATK’s jambalaya recipe with my partner and it was easy because of their directions (use a food processor to chop veg, here is how you know when the meat is ready, this is why cooking rice doesn’t always work), and super delicious. We bought the cookbook that has all the recipes from the show, and I keep finding new recipes to try that satisfy my need to know.
Also, anyone who says prep your ingredients before starting to actually cook is 100% correct. It’s really made my cooking so much better and less stressful. I love to cook for myself and my partner now that I can prep thoroughly beforehand.
What board games are you into right now? My partner collects them and we play some fun stuff!
Tell me more about the pickles, please? I love fresh jalapenos but haven’t found a pickled one I really like, so maybe making my own would help.
I have yet to try Pathfinder 2nd, but I’m glad to hear it’s good! We had a really fun first edition campaign running for awhile.
I am super obsessed with mustalids and am pretty sure they are god’s gift to the world. I’ve been known to crack a fact or two at (and yeah, I mean at here sadly) people at random because they jazz me up so hard.
I know very little about mustelids except that most of them are SO CUTE. Tell me some cool things, please?
Also, are you a fan of the illustrator Michael Whelan? I just rediscovered some of his works because he started posting on Mastodon and it’s lovely nostalgia.
What RPGs? I’m currently reading through Girl By Moonlight, which is a derivative of the Blades in the Dark system, and it’s fantastic. Also Brindlewood Bay is charming AF
Ooh, I’ve seen this community pop up in my local! I’ll take a peek. Thank you!!
Idk if you’re into wrestling games but they’ve got some pretty fucking naners ones on Steam. But people like you always keep me alive. Cause legitimately I never had a personal direct interest in wrestling, but growing up my folks who did always kept me in the know. And you guys have so much passion it gives me life. I’ve seen a couple of gigs and it’s always super entertaining. I’ve pretty much got one guy left in the life and his joy is contagious. Only catch is I don’t understand a damn thing about the game anymore. Simple example is I have absolutely no clue who Chuck Taylor is (I was like - shoes?) BUT! You’re so jazzed and I dig that.
I’m not huge on playing the games but I love watching people play through them! Fire Pro is fucking bonkers.
I really appreciate it :) My coworkers mostly think it’s adorable but childish (even the ones who love wrestling), but when I can get really into telling wrestling stories it’s so satisfying and fun~! For example, if you really want to understand one of the current catchphrases in AEW, you literally have to start with a ring name from 20 years ago.
Rabbits are incredible! I can’t have them, because my lovelies sustain off of them =_o!! Their paws are wonderful though, I agree. As are the paws of chinchillas. Not the same, but the only other creature I can think of that is int he same boat. Not sure if you’re into camp and absolute goofy horror but they made a horror movie with cutie bunnies called Night of the Lepus.
What are your ‘lovelies’? I love hearing about pets!!
And thank you for the recommendation! I think I have this on my steam list to play, so I’ll have to check it out!
I hadn’t heard of that one! Can you tell me more about it?
Pro wrestling, specifically AEW, NXT and Mystery Wrestling. I’m a sucker for good comedy wrestling, and Chuck Taylor is my favorite male wrestler (even though he had to mostly retire this year). https://youtu.be/zlAHrHL_FCc?si=kaj76TB8WZP78nSj links to one of Chuck’s best spots, the BOLA grenade!
Rabbits. Rabbits are incredible. They’re not rodents even though their teeth continue growing throughout their lives, and they have no paw pads. They’re basically like having tiny cuddly fuzzy deer or horses in your house without the poop issues.
Pokemon first gen, particularly Jigglypuff and her evolution family including Scream Tail. I found out today that Rachael Lillis, the original anime voice of Jigglypuff (and Misty, and Jessie) passed away this weekend and I’m a little heartbroken.
I’m also crazy about rogue-likes and rogue-lites, and I can’t wait for Hades 2 to officially release 😁
Crypt of the Necrodancer on steam is a fantastic rhythm game, and you can use your own music on it. The switch version is portable, which is a plus, but there’s no ability to swap your music in.
I also second Theatrhythm! Final Fantasy music is almost universally gorgeous.
It’s true, but they do exist!
Something Awful has been around since the very early 2000s, and they charge $10 to get an account, and the same to reinstate a banned account. It’s actually pretty nice because the fee tends to keep all but the most dedicated trolls from doing anything particularly stupid. And yes, I know they created 4chan, but the main forums are trying to be better people over the years.
It’s unorthodox but I’m impressed by how happy the bunnies seem. It’s hard to bond two bunnies, much less a trio.
I talked to my therapist, and she referred me to a doctor in her clinic who specializes in educational neuropsychology. I know I’m lucky to have been able to see someone so easily, and my diagnosis was pretty quick.
They treat autism as a disease to be cured, which is a disgusting way to think about it. Their founder also claimed that it’s “possible” that autism is caused by vaccines, which is scientifically disproven. There are also no autistic members of their board, which means no actual representation for the people they claim to want to help.
I can’t believe how much Juice looks like Macho in this video. It’s wild.
I about jumped out of my seat when I saw him hit the pad face first. It was a neat idea to have him take on Perry to really show off the new heel character.
