gives me Goosebumps just thinking about it

I never use prime, and stuff usually shows up in 2 or 3 days, anyway. They optimized their shipping abilities, and then convinced some people to pay more for it.

Hype is the not-so-quiet killer of good movies, but it’s a paradox: good movie gets spread by word-of-mouth so much that people stop wanting to hear about it and create a negative opinion before ever engaging with it.

I do my best to recommend movies/tv/games with simple “I liked it” or “it’s worth watching” type statements. I try to avoid overly personal statements like “you would love this” or “you need to see this”, since it takes the autonomy away from the person who might choose to watch it. Additionally, I very often use the phrase “say no more” when getting recommendations, to let people know I’m convinced to try it, without the need for overbearing elaboration.

I have had things ruined by pre-judgment for the over-hyped, and all I can do now is try not to ruin things for anyone else. It’s natural to want to rave about something we really like, but it’s worth being conscious of how bias can set in and affect other people.

the drizzle could work. keep the bread drier for longer, and speed up the inevitably delicious mix of sauce and yolk

everything looks cooked perfectly.

and the plating is nice; maybe only improved with an oval plate that fits the shape of the food better.

pico on chili is also fantastic.

bonus food remix: put that mess on a fresh corn tortilla, and add an egg for some dank huevos ran-chili.

still using Jerboa since I joined up, and I’m so used to it now that other apps just feel off. I was a rif user in the before-times, and jerboa has the same kind of stripped-down vibe I’m comfortable with

my cover band is playing a beach bar gig tonight… I started shedding Margaritaville and Cheeseburger as soon as I saw the headline

the ongoing July

remember kids: always use a clean straw for your booger sugar!

nice!

when I do these, I also dice the stems and toss them in the mix to make it a little more unctuous

good morning!

I have a feeling this era of cars won’t last long enough to become vintage

but radio will outlive everything, so those low FM station override things could make a comeback

I had to drive a newer Subaru recently, and it had no physical interface for any of the fan controls. I had to glance down to change temperature and speed, and that had me really uncomfortable.

Flat screen HMI don’t work in cars, and I am not on board with it as a standard.

reddit’s oldest profession

and lady bugs are actually beetles, not “true bugs”

wait, what the fuck did I just read?

this case is way more traumatic and disturbed than a breach of user data from a company that will gladly sell its users to the highest bidder, which is honestly unsurprising at this point.

but the living hell that family is experiencing… and being punished for? they need to get these people some healthcare, not incarceration. damn.
