Lots of ovens don't actually go down that far, the lowest setting on mine is 120°C.

There's lots of ways to word things to get the kinds of answers you're looking for. It's what salespeople, pollsters, and politicians basically do for a living.

Which survey? She links to this as the source of the data, and it's definitely the source of all the graphs posted in that thread, and I don't even see that question anywhere in it: https://t.co/x0hhntaXhy?amp=1 She also points to this one, but again, that question isn't in it and it's a survey of teens, not adults, and there's nothing in there about periods either: https://t.co/JXqb9OUZsq?amp=1 And searching it looks like the every other reference I can find for the survey asking that question is just the tweet itself. Every other tweet in that thread is a page from one of these two surveys, but that one about periods just seems to come from nowhere. When you say "reading the poll question," do you mean you found the poll that asked this question, or do you just mean the tweet?

Like crazyglue, but able to instantly and painlessly dissolve at will. Obviously DARPA seized the entire supply which is why it isn't available in stores yet.

I thought they were talking about the first question. There’s no way that I can even conceive of the second question being ‘tricky’ in any way. That said, I also looked and couldn’t find the second question anywhere, but it confirms my biases so it’s definitely true.

We will only be selling essential products. This does not include sanitary products. Toilet paper is a luxury, not a right. You can live without it. DrBouvenstein posted:Oh, yeah, bread is a lot more precise than, say, cakes or cookies. My basic bread recipe is a very rough estimation on all steps. It works because you want the resulting dough to have a specific texture right when you're done mixing it together.. It it's too dry, or too wet/sticky you can throw in a little extra water or flour and continue mixing until it is the correct texture. 3 cups water, microwaved to near body temp. I usually nuke 2 cups then add 1 cup cold tap water. It should feel warm and cozy. It should not feel like heated pool water (too cold) or a fever (too warm). Aim high, dip your finger in it, if it's too hot, let it cool down before you do anything else. 1 tablespoon yeast into the mixing bowl with water 1.5 tablespoon kosher salt or 1 tablespoon table salt into the bowl with water stir briefly to disperse the yeast and salt 6 1/2 cups flour. AP is fine. scoop and level. do not compact or sift the flour. stir with a big wooden spoon until it is dough, a bit on the wet and sticky side. it should cling to the spoon, and then cling to your fingers when you try to scrape the spoon clean. just a big wet wad somewhere between dough and paste. if it is too dry, add 1/2 cup water and stir. too wet, add 1/2 cup flour and stir. let it rise in the bowl for at least 2 hours, covered by a towel. in the summer, you might be able to get away with just 1 hour. in the winter, you could leave it and work an 8 hour shift then come home and it's ready. BAKIN TIME the recipe should yield 4 balls of dough that are like a big grapefruit. flour your counter, flour your hands, then scoop out the dough in 4 balls. push all the weird hangy bits into the bottom, so the top of each ball is smooth and the bottom is a puckered rear end hole. dust the tops lightly with flour and cover for 30 min with a towel. dip a steak knife in water (and re-dip between each ball), then cut a few slashes into the top of each ball. no deeper than a fingernail. it can be an X. it can be 3 parallel slashes. make like a palm leaf or wheat sheaf, i don't fuckin care just put some slashes on that ball preheat oven to 450. flour a baking tray and put 1-2 loafs on the tray. put the tray on the top rack. on the bottom rack put a casserole or bread dish with 1 cup of water. the water vapor Does A Chemistry during baking and you get a fantastic crusty crust on your bread. set timer for 30 minutes, and then just keep looking at the bread. you want a nice dark golden brown crust. take it out when it's the right color. hold your ear up to the bread and hear the crust crackling. inhale the smell of fresh baked bread. wow this is good and you made it from literally nothing but flour water yeast and a pinch of salt. repeat the baking steps for the other 2 balls of dough. give one loaf to a family member. give one loaf to a neighbor. keep 2 loafs for yourself. after bread has cooled, you can brush it with a napkin if you put a little bit too much flour on the baking sheet or top of the loaf. it looks like a lot when written out but it's very intuitive in practice. It is more like other types of cooking than actual baking. I can cook a million things on the stovetop without looking up a recipe. this is the only thing I can bake without looking up the recipe. It costs like 25 cents and it's better than the $8 artisan pain de campagne from the store with its own bakery (because it is the same thing, except you get to eat it when it's fresh out the oven). goes really well with a soup or stew in a slow cooker, so you spend maybe 20 minutes actively prepping/cooking, the rest is letting it rise or cooking in the oven/slow cooker once you've done it a couple times, it's the same level of effort as making an omelette or spaghetti sauce. when i make it from memory, it's "3 cup warm water, 1 spoon yeast, 1.5 spoon salt, 6.5 cup flour. mix, cover until dinner. flour counter, flour hands, make 4 balls dough. dust with flour, cover 30 min. slash with wet knife. bake 450 on floured sheet for 30 min" and all those other details just become muscle memory from having made it before wait a minute what thread am i even posting in

Well, I can at least congratulate you for not doing the standard thing Bread People do, which is give you three or four sentence recipes and then a couple paragraphs insisting how easy it is, and then leaving out 80% of the recipe because you should have KNOWN how to do it because of how EASY it is. Still gonna ding you for giving all the steps, but still saying that it's "intuitive", like everybody should be able to figure out complex food chemistry by opening their minds to the Wheat Force.

And I'll give credit for the shortest preamble before getting to a recipe I've seen on the internet. Usually its about 30 paragraphs of "I've always felt a special connection with the italian countryside, and in many ways I feel like this recipe draws on that. My family love it, and let me tell you about the first time I made this for my son, Mason....". I mean, I'm not going to try baking it (its bread, they sell that poo poo in shops now which seems easier) but I will give credit for that.

Nobody wins if you try to say that women can't have mustaches. Further it says that gender doesn't matter when it comes to wanting to be an astronaut. It's probably the best way they could've gone here.
