This was a roller coaster of emotions! I had to look up Potato World after that and saw Col. Chris Hadfield is giving a speech nearby this evening

These are so cool, thanks for introducing me to them! Might have to get the sub one

The first of 31 articles- I look forward to this series!

“The authors prepared several milkshakes with varying fat and sugar contents and placed a sample of each between two pig tongues procured from a local butcher. The researchers then slid the tongues across each other and measured the amount of friction between the two surfaces, providing a numerical index of each shake’s smoothness.”

I just need to pause for a moment

Same reason I save my roast broccoli for last

Grapes, sharp white cheddar, and crackers are delicious together, so I could see this being good

What a cutie!

Awww!

That is so cute! I was really excited the first time I tried to share some sashimi with my cat, but she turned her nose up at it

Or with buttermilk!

I would say higher quality content in that the comments are pertinent and not just jokes. Sometimes I’d spend a couple of minutes reading nonsense on Reddit before realizing, then I’d try to scroll way down for a fresh comment thread, then just give up on the post

Add a Santa hat and make it your Christmas card : )

I think I understand what these words mean in this order haha, is this like making a mushroom log?

This looks really good! It might be tricky to find the dendê oil, but I’m making this as soon as I can. As the weather cools I’ve been thinking about making some soups and stews and I can definitely see moqueca being part of the rotation

I watched Barry Lyndon and really didn’t care for it, plus I don’t mind long movies but it didn’t need to be 3 hours. I started reading the book and liked it a lot more- a lot of lines were lifted entirely verbatim, but there’s more to the character of Barry Lyndon in the book where at least he’s terrible in an interesting way. I don’t know who to blame for how he turned out in the movie, but he acted like a long-suffering hero that turned out to be terrible in every lazy way possible, just like the rest of the characters. It was exhausting.

I also saw the Killing and I liked it a lot. It might even be my favorite Kubrick movie but don’t kill me for saying that.

And I’ve seen the Mummy a few times before but never on the big screen and I never saw it when I was younger. I honestly just thought it was ok before, although I loved my boyfriend’s enthusiasm for it. But seeing it on the big screen with a bunch of people who love it (and some even seeing it for the first time) has converted me, it looked incredible and was so much fun!

I checked the Kickstarter and the last update was last August, after nothing since 2020, but that update is set to “for backers only”

Through the Gorge

I agree with everything you said about Priory, and would add that the sex scenes were maybe the most badly written to the point it was painful. I almost never give up on a book even when I should, but I had to leave this one unfinished. And I’ve finally stopped seeing the cover of the second one and thinking ooh what’s this? Before I realize it’s nothing I want to read. I liked How to Lose the Time War pretty well and will check out your other recommendations!

There is a remind me bot, but it has to be enabled by each community I think
