@sunflower@plush.city Now I'm imagining possible completely non Chris Pratt sort of roles. Remake of Breakfast at Tiffany's. Biopic of Thurgood Marshall.

you're not gonna believe it, but this James Horner soundtrack borrows Prokofiev's Teutonic Knight leitmotif from Alexander Nevsky

had an accident adding shake cheese (the fancy stuff too) to the leftover stewed roma beans, and consequently I am now having VERY CHEESY stewed beans

Look the Darkman soundtrack is by Danny Elfman, that makes it seasonal!

the cow says moo
the sheep says baa
the horse says neigh
the cat says MRAAAAAAA. MMFT. WHHHHA?
the siberian husky says AWRAAAAOOOO WHRRIIIEEE RAAOOOWHORH RARRARWHARH

Aha! The adjustment layers I'd wanted to use this entire time are on the "layer" pulldown, right in front of my schnoz. Good to know.

Here’s why cooking omasum is such a pain;

* like most organ meats you want some sort of prep, in this case boiling it, before even trying to cook it.
* ideally you want to marinate it for 24 hours
* you want to steam it for 6 minutes. Less and it’s not cooked, more and it’s a tire

This is okay if you’re a restaurant cooking lots of tripe but doesn’t scale down to one scrawny canine.

Dim sum place without my parents means I can eat congee with century egg like a normal person. And steamed omassum with ginger which is a pain to make at home.

ENGLISHMEN I AM WAITING HERE

Bleah. The same things that always make me self hating and pessimistic are making me feel self hating and pessimistic this morning.

@spinach I’d never heard about Foxbody Mustangs and first thought the car reference was about the VW Fox, and was profoundly confused.

it's weird thinking of myself as neurodiverse, when it's so painfully obvious I *am*.

* blasts Garmarna *

"KLADKAKA! TA MED OS KLADKAKA!" I bellow, pounding my half empty coffee mug against the table at 11 PM

Holy Frijole! Or more accurately “los Frijol Santos del Santiago del Azlan.”

Dude, this supplement has a Megalania picture in it! There’s something you don’t see in FRPGS!

When they go Barry Manilow, we go Barry ManiHIGH. How does that even work?

for clarification my musical tastes are WEIRD in that

* I got raised with little access to anything other than my Dad's tastes and whatever was top 40s radio enough I heard it so I'm definitely playing catch up

* where I picked up musical tastes from my Dad's stuff isn't *literally* mostly classical but rather I like heavily instrumental and/or layered, especially faster paced, stuff

* I'm not one of those people who only listens to stuff from their teens or 20s and insists anything more recent is terrible (music being music, you never know what's next; for all I know my favorite track ever is something which won't exist for a couple of decades), *but* even though I like a big range of stuff my comfort listening is still very much stuff that was around in the 90s.

* The Oldies station was the only one which got good reception everywhere in A^2 in the 90s, so "comfort listening" includes a lot of 60s and 90s music, some of which honestly isn't all *that* great.

there is no bad music or good music. There's just music, and my opinion is highly subjective, and some of what I like or dislike is less about technical skill or emotional connection than about familiarity and unfamiliarity

except yeah most Christmas music is shit

@anthracite holy fuck that would be AWESOME if it happens

@chimerror this, it's a solid track on its own but the horn is Wesley, https://youtu.be/WCX1mYNMUvA?si=wRuS-rFBvUMtexBk
