But can it still be turned into a steak??

One of my friends lives in what used to be considered a town. Currently it has a population of like 10 people 4 of which are their family and another is one of their roommates. It is now part of the nearest town about 20 miles away and makes for some logistical novelties like mail delivery and school bus routes

My friend screenshares shows with me and we watch and talk to help me fall asleep at night ❤️ It works better on the deck than my phone

Factorio: Nothing more to be said here Terraria: Just such a good game with devs that truly care about it. I’ve been playing it forever Eco: Serious love/hate with this game. I’m tired of trying to save servers that are on the verge of collapse because of capitalist ideas Morrowind: :3

Gonna be hard for them to repeat the exact mistakes now that we’ve blown through all the easy to access coal and oil. It might not be possible to get industrialization off the ground a second time

I purposefully slightly tilt most my wall hangings. I like watching guests squirm when they mention it and I do nothing

It’s a good thing everyone learned their lessons from the last plague and we are now unanimously on board with various precautions and vaccination. This’ll all blow over in no time

I really hope they do well but unfortunately it’s Idaho…

We are unbreakable!

I’ve been setting myself up to move out of country for a few months now. So I’ve been planning since before the election but it used to be “if I make it cool if not I’ll find my path here” and now it’s more “I’m getting out of here with or without a plan”. I know I should want to stay and fight but my body is aging, I’ve been fighting for so long, my trans ass is one of the first on their kill list. My last offer to help the people around me is I’ve got the savings to keep two people alive a couple years so maybe someone I know can escape with me

My ex spouse got an app that gave alerts every time there was anything going down in our neighborhood. They went from cautious to walk around at night to “omg we live in a crime riddled hellhole with people being murdered everywhere” and stopped going outside. People now have access to so much information, often explicitly designed to make you fearful, and we suck at statistics

Yeah it’s about the only silver lining of my life right now so I’m latching onto it! I’m pretty excited that it’s even a possibility for me should be interesting if it works out

I love how every time we get a better look at them black holes slap around our current understanding of things

I’m not sure I understand the reaction, mind explaining?

I made blackberry jam for the first time this year. I saw the suggested sugar to put in and was blown away, used 1/3 of that, it’s still quite sweet

I love fage, mixed with some roughly chopped cherries is so good. I’ve switched to making my own yogurt recently but the original starter I used was fage and it hasn’t let me down

A bit of brown sugar really helps bring a red sauce together and yogurt is good sweet or savory (granted I like my sweet yogurt to just be sweetened with fruit and no pure sugar added but that’s a preference thing)

As per usual in my responses to comments like this, just because it is easy for you to make these things doesn’t mean it is easy or practical for everyone to. From scratch takes longer, requires more knowledge which takes time to acquire, makes more dishes, requires more types of equipment, and in the case of yogurt can be a safety thing

It is on the companies making these products to do better not on the individual seeking to make a part of their life easier

If you’re trans too then add that to the list lol. I got pulled away from the industry for stability reasons but I’m not in that situation anymore. I’ve only ever wanted to be a game dev, as a kid it never occurred to me to be anything else, it still doesn’t. I know I’m not one of those hotshot early twenties devs who cracked into the industry right away, I’m a bit slow to it, but I’ll get there if it kills me

My entire social circle and marriage fell out from under me in the last year. Nobody left but me so I’m going to take advantage of the freedom to make questionable decisions since it will only affect me now if it goes sideways

Don’t tell me not to follow my life goals. I know what I’m getting into
