I'm glad we're finally getting there. Hydrogen greenwashing has been on full blast for over a decade.

I'm really happy with my few hours in it. I was afraid it'd be another Rain World situation where I can tell I like it and admire the craft but don't actually feel the need to play it much, but I do find it enticing still.

The Twist, by Chubby Checker. Just to see if partnered dancing survives without it

Money in politics is poison, sure, and we're definitely fucked if it isn't solved immediately, if not sooner.

I was speaking in the assumption that everyone here would be on the same page about that.

There's a better way to frame all this: change comes from within. We obviously have to vote and pay attention to politics and speak up to our elected officials because that's how "not being ruled by a monarch" works. But ultimately all real changes, even in the world, come from within.

Absolute bullshit, where's my free friend?

The oil industry is the greatest enemy humanity has ever faced. They've all but won.

Didn't see Big Man Japan (2007) listed here.

Ever thus to ethno nationalism.

The dude looks barely alive, I'm pretty sure the only thing he practices is blinking both eyes simultaneously

Not for last mile, but should be a much larger part of the picture.

It's my first time seeing it, so give it another five years

 
 

I made quesabirria de res and proveletta cheese with consomme. My little innovation is that I gave it a pat of cilantro garlic compound butter with flake salt on top. I'm gonna die happy. These are the best tacos I've ever made. They taste better than being thin, god help me.

 

Absurdity is cruel, and cruelty is absurd.

 
 

But those tomatoes really stole the show

 

I'm shaking rn

 

These are basically samoas (the Girl Scout cookie) built on top of full sized Scottish shortbreads, laden with caramel, toasted coconut, and dipped in chocolate. Normal samoas are designed so you can eat the whole box before you hate yourself. These accomplish that aim with just one.

 
 

Stealing from Weissman's board ideas, I made a gastrique with shallot and dried chiltepin for the cream cheese. The rest is all cheap and cheerful Lidl nibbles.

 

This is LIKE tonkotsu, if you don't have chashu pork or bones to make your own broth.

I was inspired to attempt Joshua Weissman's new quick recipe, but it ended up with more of a FutureCanoe vibe. I went to every shop in town looking for pork bones and struck out. It took all weekend.

My only options were admitting defeat or conducting a science experiment involving premade ramen broth, pork Bisto, gelatin, and duck fat emulsified with a blender.

Also my tare was bonito and konbu powder rather than real stuff. The Asian markets in town didn't know what shirodashi was, so I had to fake it.

The pork is cured and slow roasted belly, which is itself extremely nice and I'm not mad at that substitution at all.

Still pretty good. I'm happy with how my eggs turned out.
