Her brother and his wife are expecting their first child and their last name is McCracken, so I made them shirts to wear to the hospital that have a kraken holding a pacifier that says "Release the McCracken!" I assume the child will be named Phil. Android Apocalypse posted:I think I'll watch something relaxing tonight…

Silly Burrito posted:Nice! You have a Cricut? Braks made a gift tumbler for her friend and it looks awesome, like you could've bought it at Academy. What I made is a sublimated tumbler, no Cricut involved. I made this design in Canva. I bought an Epson eco tank printer that I filled with sublimation ink and then I bought a sublimation oven. I need to play around with the print quality but this is for my work side piece and she'll like it.

 Didn't realize the pork belly I got didn't have skin so I couldn't cook it like lechon. Did a more traditional roast with fenugreek & black mustard.  Stir fried some Swiss chard, fennel, spinach, and garlic as a side. Unfortunately all of this is meal prep for the week so it's not even my dinner.  Figured out dinner: 2 keto tacos & consome from Carlos Birrieria, with a pineapple agua fresca to boot.

Rarely has a movie scene so directly changed my behavior as that one from Final Destination did lol. I am immediately getting the gently caress away from any logging truck on the road Made sliders tonight (I love the serious eats recipe with caramelized onions, Gruyère and pickles). They were great but the kitchen got smoked out pretty badly. We recently had a vent hood put in, and I know it vents to the outside cause I watched the dude cut the holes and run duct work. But it seems like the fan isn’t doing jack poo poo beyond making a lot of noise. Gotta look into that. Alternatively “sorry honey looks like the only option is to buy a Blackstone  /  “

No pics but I had a go at making lard using leftover pig fat scraps that I've been accumulating in the freezer. Tossed everything into my slow cooker and let it go for about 6 hours. It definitely has that pig smell that regular lard doesn't have. Next up: beef tallow using the same technique.

Lard is a scrap step too far for me. Not exactly sure why aside from the smell. 3 out of 4 of the cats have a kitty cold. My fuzzy grey boy sneezed in my face last night but since he's perking up I've forgiven him.

Fries taste just fine if they're from an Ore-Ida bag and you baked them from frozen, yes the ones that take 7 years off your life and take three weeks planning to make are probably 2-3% better but let's be realistic here fellas.

My grandma is going to the hospital with a suspected stroke. Because of vacations and such I am now the closest family member, so I am renting a car to drove over. The one nice little diversion from this was the Uber ride to the rental car place. Guy was originally from Spain and after like 10 seconds of conversation, he clocked me as a leftist, and he just started talking about how capitalism is killing us all and we should be openly and violently protecting the environment from corporate and political interests. Then he said he was voting Trump, but because he is an accelerationist (my words) and just wants the uprising to come as soon as possible.

I remember once in college I was in a study group with some other engineers and when it came up that I was petroleum engineering he got really huffy about it and the ethical ramifications of the industry. I just told him flat out, "I feel like I can live with being a complicit, Eichmann type" and he just said "I don't know who that it." Anyway he was nuclear, I think he just had an axe to grind.

Hot Diggity! posted:"If things get bad enough surely they will get better!" Indeed it is. It's like they want to recreate how the USSR came about, but they conveniently forget, or just think it doesn't apply to them, that a whole shitload of people died for that to happen, and then a whole bunch of people died after it happened too.

H.L. Menken's most famous quote is "Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." I think about that a lot when people on the left talk about being accelerationists. He also said "Every decent man is ashamed of the government he lives under." and "As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron." and "Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance." prophetic Note; Menken was a bit of a Nietzsche fan, hated FDR, and thought we should have stayed out of both world wars, and Ayn Rand was a big fan of his. So like, I'm not saying he's a laudable figure. He was an rear end in a top hat and he was wrong about a lot of stuff. Just... yeah his statements about how hosed up democracy is keep winding up being highly prophetic
