When Archie first came to me 6 years ago, he wanted so badly to be my buddy BUT he was very very bitey and quite unpredictable with said bites. It took years of patience and training and work, but about 1.5 years ago, we got to him almost never biting and also LOVING snuggles.

Little guy snuggle time is now (actually it is always, but who’s counting)

I don’t know what “The Omnivore’s Dilemma” is actually about, but I’d like to think it’s this.

Gotta say, it’s some bullshit that I cannot single-handedly immediately fix our society so the disabled don’t end up homeless with no safety net.

I've seen people saying they simmer their homemade chicken stock for four hours, and it's delicious.

Why four hour? Why did you stop there? Cowardice? A crisis of faith?

I don't really see flavor development until at least hour 8, and I generally go to 12 or more if I can manage it.

I’m out here filming a short about lentil soup, and when planning the plating, I realized I would be making a quinelle of Greek yogurt, and I had to ask what on earth I’m doing with my life

It’s me. I’m them. I’m a bunch of small birds in a trench coat and I can’t fall asleep for 3+ hours, even when I go to bed at a sensible time.

Would you love me if I was a weird indie game?

Come hang in the Bird House tonight at 6:30pm ET for a bunch of delightfully strange games.

I’ve got Archie the conure at the vet for a nail trim today. I’m in the lobby, and he’s in the back with two techs, and I can hear him shrieking his displeasure.

He’s not being harmed in any way; he’s just 65 grams of fury and indignation.

A very eepy avocado

Both of my conures like to grumble and yell at one of my housemates when they come to the basement to do laundry. I reminded Archie in particular that he talks a lot of shit for someone who weighs 65 grams.

“Sorry, I got distracted.”
“Doing what?”
“Writing a 700 word essay about John Harvey Kellogg, cults, health, food, and why the modern American breakfast is the way it is.”

This is easily a food infraction at the very least.

A HUGE crow, biggest I’ve ever seen, was hanging out in my office’s parking lot so I just sat down on a curb about twenty feet away from them and we vibed until my lunch break was over.

I’m “every time I grab my container of freeze dried shiitake, my brain cycles through ‘badger badger badger badger mushroom MUSHROOM’” years old.

I had leftover pork tenderloin that needed to get eaten, so I made some bao after work Fri night, sliced the pork thin, and warmed it up in a sorta-char-siu from-the-pantry sauce.

These things fucking SLAPPED. I ended up with 14 bao and me and my two housemates destroyed them.

Why why WHY do I see so many recipes saying you can caramelize onions in 15-20min? Like my claims that I thrive in a fast-paced environment, it is FALSE.

Are they a) confused about time b) confused about caramelization or c) lying to make the recipe seem faster/easier to make?
