Roasted and smashed is the best way to have sunchokes. I cracked it.

Our house faces the Fraser River valley to the south. The first winter after we moved here, I noticed an eerie glow in the southern sky. I figured it was light pollution from industry, or an airport. But I just found out it's from greenhouses. The plants need extra light to get through winter nights

I'm looking forward to the documentaries about all the nazi bimbos of the Trump era twenty years from now, when their Maga barbie hack job facelifts and over inflated tits are dragging on the floor. It'll be such an apt symbol for how they'll have butchered their reputations for a dead misogynist.

This is what happens when queer people hate you. Be warned, cishets.
can't believe this ancient mesopotamia shoe wearing ass said people need to dress up at the airport

I remember during the disqualification case, the SCOTUS said we couldn't enforce the 14th amendment against Trump because it would deprive GOP primary voters of their democratic choice. Today, the case against Trump for trying to throw out Biden's voters' actual ballots in Georgia was dismissed

One of the most delicious moments of my life was when I was suing a pair of malignant narcissists for discrimination at the human rights tribunal. Not the overall experience, which was harrowing and stressful AF. But seeing the narcissistic meltdown of a couple of straight white bigots

I'm begging people to notice that right wingers generally don't debate their opponents. They declare them beneath listening to. Hence Trump's "Quiet piggy," "nasty woman," "terrible person," "low IQ (non-white)", Andrew Wilson's, "you lick snizz!". The biggest irony is that this is a demand for

Do you know how many "progressive" "affirming" Christians have excoriated, smeared, and blocked me for criticizing homophobic teachings, institutions, and practices I have first hand experience with?

I hate that the onus is always on me to keep up contact with my parents. They never call, but guilt me if I don't call them often enough. And now I know my dad's upset that I don't want to go visit him over Christmas.

2007-2008 was a trip. Harbinger of the avocado toast and frappuccino discourse on the OP Ed pages of Very Serious Newspapers.
I know, I was kidding. I remember it well. That was the year when my parents' generation went from saying "you have to get a degree if you don't want to flip burgers" to saying, "what, you think just because you have your fancy degree that you're too good to flip burgers now?".

It's the two-month span of the year where Vancouver is actually as dark, chilly, and damp as people think it is all the time. It's still 10 times better than a Montréal winter, and ~8 times better than a Chicago winter. Ya know, to quantify my vibes.

I just roasted the fermented potatoes I set up last week, and they were fantastic. They had a rich cheesy tang that carried the flavor of the dill and garlic I fermented them with, soft creamy interiors, and beautifully crisp exteriors. It's way easier than I thought too. 10/10 would recommend.

Usually, I just cook my potatoes with the skins on, but a few days ago I decided to ferment a couple, and they have to be peeled for that. So I took the peels, tossed them with sea salt and rosemary and garlic and olive oil, and baked them on parchment for 20 mins, and they were the best chips ever.

I sang in the choir at my church, until puberty turned my voice from a terrific soprano to a baritone disaster. Anyway, probably because of that, I sometimes catch myself singing while I do chores. And then I stop myself because I don't want to get evicted.

If you want to make friends with crows, but don't like buying animal products, unsalted peanuts are a really good alternative treat. They especially like them in the shell, because it's fun for them to fish the flesh out.

This morning I passed a smoker and coughed on a lungful of second hand smoke. My internal monologue was, "Oh geez, I hope he doesn't think I'm trying to scold him passive aggressively." I am literally choking on his smoke, and worried that that might upset him. I just might have had a bad childhood.

What's the most brutal line from a movie that sticks with you? Mine is from "Happiness," where the grandfather character tells his wife he wants a divorce, and she says, "You couldn't have done this 20 years ago? Now I'm gonna have to get another fucking facelift!"
