Bleeeh, I think this kelp would be pretty good if they didn't literally encrust it in salt xP

I cooked it in with two whole whole cups of rice, and the result is still kinda briney.  I added some red miso too, but I didn't think it was much...  Meh, adding water is helping.

This one didn't want to be who they was. On the Surface – it was a dull, unconsidered sadness. But everything changed. Which implied everything could change.

Some countries also just completely shun automatic transmissions because... Well, because.

I'm looking at you, Norway. No, "Manual transmission has better handling on snow" is not a reason I'm prepared to accept.

*lives in Wisconsin, Winter lasts for 5 months, automatic cars everywhere*

I’ve was fun today though. It’s been icy for about a month in my apartment building’s parking lot, not really slippy until it rained overnight, so now there’s nice pleasant plain ground prior to an inch thick vista of ice which is very wet and very slippy

The residential road prior to my driveway also has two... I guess rails? of clean ground between the thick ice, and then it’s like driving over rocks getting into the driveway because all that ice is partially melted in spots and is consequently very uneven, prior to parking on the death trap vista you have to park on.

What is it like to drive on snow, anyway?
*EUROBEAT INTENSIFIES*

Context: closed track, several modern safety features disabled (ABS, ESP etc.), competitive racing and time-taking forbidden. Finnish car clubs often hold "ice-track days" in winters. I actually did the slippery weather practice required to qualify for a license on one (most just hose down a track with water), and it probably helped: on the way back, with all the safety features re-enabled, I was talking with my passengers, when the car suddenly lost traction. I managed to regain control without even breaking the sentence I was saying.

Well, after reading the entire course material, I go to the grade work itself and find out I don't know almost anything about how to solve it.

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

There is not a single hobby or interest in the world that isn't filled with snobby elitists that ruin it for me.

Have you tried Hermitry? I've never known the hermit community to be anything other than friendly and welcoming.

I'm sure one of them would break their isolation long enough to tell me that my shack isn't run-down enough, and has the wrong kind of vines and weeds overgrowing around it.

Too many dreams about falling in love and giving dogs heimlich manoeuvres, not enough restful sleep. I feel like I haven't slept at all. Maybe I was cold during the night without realising it.

Could be worse... Could be giving love to dogs and falling into Heimlich maneuvers.

I'd be quite okay with giving platonic love to dogs, at least...


In other mildly sad news, I am on the train to an all-day gig and just now realised I forgot to finish drinking the can of energy drink I opened earlier. I could have brought it with me. Faaaark.

As someone who drank energy drinks quite a bit, I'd recommend quitting. You feel consistently better.

Then again, it is nice and bubbly.

Why are printers, scanners and copiers stuck in the 2000s? I have more esoteric and more numerous issues with printers than any other kind of technology today. And that's without somebody in the printer room "helping" while I'm trying to print from the other room.

Because printer companies are an evil cartel.

I think I'm in some kind of weird confluence of device-failure.  Minor things like desk lamp switch failing, an HDMI cable failing, and now I'm pretty sure the alternator on my car is dying.

I watched a new LGR video about a kid's digital camera. It's an interesting, thoughtful snapshot of what high-end kid's toys were like in the 90's and LGR's own thoughts about his obsession with kid's computer software from that era.

So of course the You$Tube$ $$$algorithm$$$ got hungry for ad clicks and decided to fill my recommendations with those creepy toy channels that just feature hours and hours and hours of kids playing with expensive toys and going on extravagant vacations. Given that I already see the same five channels over and over again in my recommendations no matter how many times I click "not interested," I guess this will just be the state of affairs for as long as YouTube exists (so, eternity.)
