"Is a friendship bracelet a legally-binding contract? Asking for a landlord."

Can anyone recommend any good books/games/films/narrative experiences about being queer and alone in space? I could really use that right now.

The more robust #writing community we can get together here, the better for all of us.

SPEAKING OF GUMROAD'S 24HR PUERTO RICO DONATE-A-THON: now would be a great time to nab my Chessmaster Guide zines! Three BEEFY color pdfs full of TOTAL DRIVEL about power animals, cryptids and the Tarot, illustrated by a cavalcade of fantastic artists!

This is a long shot, but I'm going to ask anyway. Is there anyone here who both knows anything about Thelema and happens to be around the Seattle area? I have... questions.

Magic, Bodies 

Filtration of gold. Fixation of silver. Digestion of iron. I can sculpt myself as I see fit. I am the stock, and the hammer.

I got my Qsymia prescription refilled today. Tomorrow I resume the work. I was down fifty kilos at the end of the year, when I declared victory and went off the meds. Then Winter came, and all that came with it this year, and twenty of those kilos found me again. No more.

Hey, you should all go follow @jakebe for writing, Buddhism, and cultural commentary.

Mayonnaise 

To my chagrin, I remember watching the Mayo Clinic episode of Good Eats and learning that mayonnaise is named for a military victory in honor of a French victory on the isle of Majorca, and from practical experiments I can attest home-made mayo really does taste better than store-bought because you can use better oil than expeller-pressed soybean.

I've been sitting here for an hour squirming awkwardly because NERDFACTbuni needed to say something but INONTHEJOKEbuni knew better.

Mind rending knowledge is a silly concept to me. The eldritch causing one to question the nature of reality seems laughable. I *already* question reality constantly, and I *already* have mental health issues related to the *mundane*, the nature of humanity is far more unhinging than the idea of a universe full of monsters who care not for our existence.

Politics, Peaches 

This is important. ignore the lede; the article is worth reading.

Ah, that weed-enhanced moment when: 

• you watch some heady media;
• you lose focus on the media as something in it triggers a Stupendously Profound Notion;
• you start to type up a toot about it;
• you try to find juuuuust the right words to explain;
• you realise that your idea is merely a belaboured rewording of a known fact.

Bonus attention-disorder points if you:
• successfully tooted about all that;
• but only after getting heavily distracted by another toot.

I turned a package of Oreos into a cheesecake using butter, cream cheese, and eggs. I am become Death, destroyer of waistlines.

It... it worked. I'm going to hell. Okay, folks, here goes.

Take one package Oreos, any flavor. Split cremes from cookies. Crush cookies, melt a stick of butter, add to crumbs, and blind bake in a pie tin at 170C for 10m. While cooling, whisk four eggs, cremes, and 500g cream cheese. Pour filling over cool crust. Bake at 150C for an hour, kill oven, open door for one minute, then close for 1h. Refrigerate for 6h.

I took a photo of it once it left the oven, but my phone died in the moment and the image was lost. "Synchronicity."

I made something bad. I bet it's tasty

i... I think I've gone too far this time.

And I'm not even stoned. There's no atoning for this one. In twenty minutes, I'll know if I still have a soul.

I am so fucking bourgoisie. I just said, "I need ramekins."
