Today's experiments:
Blueberry apricot cardamom minikugelhopfen. Split pea soup with garlic hickory TVP.

Recipe planning for Glowtide begins. Also, I bought another turkey. =>.>=

Eeeee! I was so thrilled to go see Contact at my sister @mawr​'s and @kelseyhusky's ​place tonight and then home to spend time with @ElectricKeet​ and @adeptomega​ that I almost forgot!

My contributor copy of Arcana came in; I got to pick it up from @makyo​ directly! I even got it signed! Eeeeee!

Invocation of Scorpio 

The stars turn. The Sun and Moon rise and fall. A cocoon of snow settles across the land, and the world becomes quiet and still.

Spirit of Scorpio, frozen mirror, I invite you to make your mark upon me, to cast a myriad reflections and show me new possibilities, new ways of being.

Xalki, refiner, thank you for your resourcefulness. You've shown me time and again how paths I thought impossible can be salvaged. May I strive to be as tirelessly creative.

The Work Continues.

Invocation of Libra 

The stars turn. The Sun and Moon rise and fall. Dry turns to wet and Season of Air turns to Water as the winter rains begin to fall.

Spirit of Libra, breath of fresh air, I invite you to make your mark upon me, to reveal my flaws, to review my work that I may learn to do better.

Xalki, super, thank you for your critique. Your even-handed analysis helps me see my successes and correct my mistakes. May I be as compassionate when I review my own work.

The Work Continues.

@literorrery I'd really like to see software subjected to engineering standards. The world would be much better for it.

Ichor, Bile, Software 

THIS is why software developers do not deserve the title of "engineer." THIS.
THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS.

We cannot even get data validation between two systems that could be verified by two minutes of research consistently correct and expect the non-technical user to solve the problem when the technical user runs out of time. This is BULLSHIT and it is HARMFUL. How many people will never figure this out who deserve the same access to use the same tools?

PSCCU's website permits passwords of up to 32 characters, but rejects all but seven special characters.

Mint THINKS PSCCU's website won't accept passwords longer than 20 characters, but has no special character restrictions.

Mint's website will accept all passwords, but says "you must have entered invalid credentials" if one doesn't meet its incorrect expectations.

Mint's phone app will state the incorrect expectations, but only after typing in the correct full-length password.

The future is here, but it's distributed unevenly. The people who have the patience to put up with the bullshit are the only ones or who can afford to hire people to put up with the bullshit for them are the ones who get Nice Things. Everybody else gets to eat shit. I'm capable of putting up with bullshit, but I shouldn't have to do so, and too many people I care about just don't have the same reservoirs of tolerance for this kind of insanity that I do.

All I want to do right now is get my new account with PSCCU and my old account with Mint to talk to one another, without having to call tech support a third time.

PSCCU's website has kicked me out for the third time, declaring me to have "already logged in" despite having told it I'm logged out, because their fraud-detection system is picking up Mint's logins as fradulent activity.

"The tables have turned, Professor. The gender is about to become the gended."

The current plan for #seattle #meetup lunch on Saturday, December 2 is Olympia Pizza and Spaghetti House in Wallingford

It's within walking distance of Seattle Meowtropolitan, and I am assured it has gluten free options. Let's meet there at 11:30?

I did a thing, last week, that I've been wanting to do for multiple years, and having failed to do it already a few years back.

That is: to turn my garage into a dance party (rave, let's just call it a rave), and DJ an entire set for people to dance to.

It took some science-ing of an industrial heater, and some cheap xmas lights. And cleaning the garage out enough (though thanks to @literorrery and @adeptomega for much of that work).

And now I can share the result:

Ment of "gender-reveal parties" but not in the way you'd expect and an overall positive post 

Found this gem in my Facebook history:
"I vote we repurpose the term gender reveal party to be a party where a trans or nonbinary person has just come out publicly so their friends have a party with them to celebrate, and depending on case-by-case maybe give them gifts like new wardrobe stuff if they're changing how they present cause aint nobody got money for a whole new look at once." ~ @Keltoi
