What's the deal with suits in muggy, hot-humid weather?
I'm watching clips from Columbo (late 60's) and all the guys are wearing these jackets.  Even Columbo, who's considered unkempt, is wearing a jacket that is *too* thick.  Functional.

Aren't they hot?? Overheating I mean.

It's fucking miserable, yes. I've worn suits enough in florida weather that you're never going to get me in a suit in florida weather again. I'll shank someone before you get me in layers in 100+ degree weather again.

Societal expectations can fuck off, I don't want to deal with heat stroke. Jobs that require a suicidal dress code in florida heat aren't a job I want anything to do with, the people running it are sodding idiots that value something a hell of a lot more than their workers, so screw 'em.

fill it with cinnamon and sugar and bake it

But yeah, googling fried pie will give you the fried fruit calzone thing. Try something like "frying piece of pie" to have better luck for instructions on frying a proper pie. You can also look for more generic instructions on frying sweet or cold stuff (ice cream is an obvious go-to) and just adjust them for pie. It shouldn't be too hard to find or figure out something workable.

oh lol

there's footage of an invisible wall taking more than one hit to reveal

Wait, how have they not done summons before? I know for a fact there's npc summons in earlier fromsoft games -- not as free form or nearly as varied (for all everything except a handful aren't that impressive) as in elden ring, but they absolutely were there.

Senate has unanimously agreed to put a stake into DST horseshit, starting next year. 2022 should be the last year federal legislature complicates states telling that crap to fuck off forever.

It's about damn time.

nah, it's been over a week, imma doublepost bump the food thread

Today's supper: Stewed/boiled pork meat (saltless teriyaki sauce + curry powder added after it came out the water, browned the pan that would eventually cook the veggies and simmered for a hour), boiled large chunk diced potatoes (cooked in the broth that came from cooking the pork), basic gravy (unsalted flour+butter, black pepper, paprika, also using pork water), other house people also got pan cooked/stir fried onions and carrots.

The meat + potatoes and gravy with a little bit of cheese added is really good. House people wanted it separate, but the one that eventually tried mixing it all together as was intended also reports really good, even to old people tastebuds.

Oh... yeah, most of the SF games have something like Bleu, iirc, that your initial impression is probably going to be "Eeehhh", and then particularly once they promote they're an unholy murder machine that can solo wipe like half an end game map. Forget which ones are in which game, though... want to say for two(?) it's the birdonfire and turtle, but it's been over a decade since I played through the things.
