Oh I’m the opposite - I’m not a very good cook because I don’t enjoy doing it. I’m pretty good with flavors because I’m not afraid of seasonings, but my knife skills are bordering on Worst Cook in America levels. The abuse I have wrought upon poor, innocent, delicious onions is a crime.
Also, if you like the fried onions, have you seen the jalapeno version? So good. I’ve started putting them on everything.
I’m the worst about this. My mom and I will try a new restaurant and I’ll be talking about “oh this needs acid, that’s the perfect amount of heat, blah blah.” Meanwhile, I’m over here “cooking” noodles with a pile of kimchi every other day because that’s all I ever have in the fridge.
Hardness of the Sexbots?
Every time I talk to my friends in academia, I’m grateful that I was just smart enough to know that I’m too stupid for academia.
TIL I was ambitious. And here I thought my attitude of, “I can skip these 2 papers and still have a solid C,” made me kind of a bum. NOPE! I skimmed so many papers.
That’s pretty clearly not what’s happening here though - if it’s not mental health related, then she’s a liar because people have found out that some of her claims were untrue (because, again, she posted her real name). I don’t get liar vibes, it really seems like delusions. I’m not trying to beat anyone down, I’m just saying that anyone trying to get a clear answer isn’t going to get one.
She’s either an incredibly dedicated troll or suffering from mental illness. She’s convinced her extended family is stalking her, that Lemmy users are doxxing her (even though she’s posted her real name, photos, and a ton of other personal information - apparently clicking her profile is “stalking”), and so on. That’s all from the last week of her post history. You’re not going to get an answer that makes any sense, unfortunately.
Yeah, like I’m not even motivated enough to go to the grocery store most of the time, I’m definitely not working up the energy to pick a victim, plan a whole murder, do a whole murder, hide evidence, go home, and then do it all again later. That’s basically a second job.
Eh, pretty much all of my info has been part of one breach or another and nothing has happened. I keep locks with all the credit bureaus and monitor my report regularly, which I think everyone should do, but there’s not much else you even can do about it unfortunately.
We have a big freezer, so I stuck the whole bag in there.
Huh, I usually use the Morningstar chorizo, which is surprisingly good, because it’s smaller pieces, but I’m not opposed to the idea.
Oh yeah, true. I use them in stir fry a lot. Butler says fajitas - I haven’t tried that but I bet they’d be good.
I usually buy the smaller bags at Natural Grocers. They’re just dehydrated soy beans that you rehydrate and cook. If you do try them, a lot of recipes will say soak and then drain, but I’d also really recommend squeezing the excess liquid out, too. If you don’t, they can end up spongy. I use them in place of chicken a lot.
How much do you value access to restaurants, lots of stores, and the sort of activities that are usually found closer to cities (like museums and concerts)? For some, the answer is not much, so buying a house away from those things is great. Other people would be miserable.
Look, if Noctua is going to charge me 10 whole dollars extra for the exact same fan in black, I’m getting the poop brown.
I don’t disagree. Ultimately it’s the fault of companies who expect drivers to do way too much to do it well. Having them waste time on a picture is incredibly stupid when a lot of times all it does is prove the delivered to the wrong place. It feels like the kind of thing thought up by upper management with no idea what the actual day to day of the job is like.
Based on the number of photos people post on Nextdoor of their package at a totally different house, I’m not sure why these companies bother. Maybe they could train drivers to actually use their brains to see if they’re at the right place first.
We actually have a non-profit where I live that grows and then puts together sets of native plants that will cover a certain amount of space and all grow in the same light/shade. We used their boxes, so less luck with the mint and more that we sought out plants like that. We also have some tall grasses, coneflowers, penstemon, about one million ice plants, and some others I can’t remember.
I don’t know if other states have similar orgs, but it’s a really great way to make native/pollinator-friendly gardens accessible to novices. All I had to do was plant them and weed them.
Eh, maybe, but native plants tend to be a way better option for new gardeners because they grow so much better. My mom and I tore out all the grass in our front yard and put in native plants and they’re the first plants I didn’t manage to immediately kill. If I’d tried roses, they probably would’ve died and I’d have given up. Instead, I have catmint thriving maybe a little too much and it’s full of bees!
I haven’t had any issue finding those amenities in hotels in Europe (at least in Berlin, Munich, Madrid, and Málaga, which is not an exhaustive study by any means). I’ve seen a few that look to be entire small apartment buildings converted into hotels, which isn’t great for the local housing market, but all the ones I’ve stayed at were clearly built for that purpose. So that’s the good news, I guess.
