Thoughts and observations flung wildly into the void.
I’ve attempted to make yogurt twice. First attempt tasted moderately sour, which I like, but it wasn’t firm enough. Second attempt I boiled the milk longer, used more fage starter and added milk powder; the result was firmer, less sour, and I’m not convinced i didn’t just make smooth cottage cheese.

So I went to the Chinese app to see what’s up. At the time it was just a murmur on tt, I thought it might be fun to be there before people decide overwhelmingly what will be the preferred app in the absence of tt. In less than 24hrs it’s #1 in the App Store.

Some man on fb: so sick of the woke agenda casting actors of color to play fictional characters i imagined to be white for no reason. I’d like to see them cast a white person to play a person of color.
Me: you mean like Jesus?

wild how many people are using this moment to call democrats names and spew useless propaganda instead of doing any meaningful work, exhibiting a shred of humanity, or making any serious criticism of the multitude of hyper capitalist systems in place that literally fuel the fire.

Watching Squid Game 2, with dubs because I have attention issues, and subtitles…idk for the same reason I guess. There’s usually slight differences between the two, but by episode 5 it starts to feel out of sync and I’m wondering how much was lost in translation.

Them: If Trump saves TikTok, will you like him then?!
Me:…if trump publicly supports immigration and a lunatic that told you to step back and f*** yourself in the face, will you still like him?

…I feel like as a nation we’re regressing towards more vanilla predilections, and maybe that’s a good thing. But I am concerned for Oklahoma and Virginia. I don’t know what “transformation” means in this context, and I think Kansas and Nebraska are desperately looking for sparknotes on the topic.

Musk: you guys are bullying me and also very racist.
Everyone:…yeah.
Musk: I’m questioning my loyalty.
Everyone: will you leave?
Musk: no. I will hunt down every one of you that hurts me or disagrees with me until what’s left suits me better.
Everyone: this guy sucks.

Apparently this country has a culture of celebrating mediocrity, especially in terms of athletics and aesthetics vs academics and intellectual achievement. I wonder what it would look like if we valued h1b skills? Well funded and easily accessible schools with well paid teachers and no fear of GSWs?

The Department of Government Efficiency, an immigrant and first generation child of an immigrant, explains that it’s more efficient to make DEI hires because Americans are low IQ, low skill, and mediocre overall-the result of a culture of participation trophies, is actually so hilarious.

When you hear conservatives inevitably emphasize the legal status of the alleged fire starter, remember that is the least concerning detail of this incident and more pressing are issues homelessness, diffusion of responsibility, apathy, inaction by a uniformed officer, and health and access to care.

Guy on fb:Seems like NYCsubway needs more vigilantes
Me:Most people who take lives feel a moral superiority
Guy:Obviously not everyone is a hero but we need vigilantes
Me:Why not you? You seem to have a strong moral compass
Guy:obviously not me, and i feel like you’re being rude
Me:Good judgment.

This month I’ve made cinnamon rolls, cookies, congee, ketchup, bbq sauce, sourdough, sandwich bread, tortillas, burger buns, squash soup, bean and vegetables soup, French onion soup, cranberry relish, cranberry syrup, cranberry jam, champurrado, banana syrup…but I have not organized the extra room 😳

Another day, another school shooting. USA is set to break its own record not only for school shootings but also mass shootings. Hardly news, but you know, if it’s discussed at all, surely we’ll all agree it’s not a gun issue, because that’s our right, it’s a mental health crisis, which isn’t a right

Poker Face, starring Natasha Lyonne…this is basically just an adaptation of The Littlest Hobo where Natasha plays the role of the dog, right?

Watching The Bear with my dad
Dad: this is not realistic
Me: I mean it is hyperbolic-
Dad: when I was at the hotel there was a chef that didn’t like the way someone was preparing mashed potatoes and he dumped them down the sink drain, clogged up the whole floor-we had to use an air compressor
Me: 🙄

The audacity of a true crime podcaster lecturing Luigi sympathizers-a podcaster who relies primarily on first hand audio footage that often contains the victims final breath-he monetizes that and wags his finger at people who lack empathy for a health care CEO.

Ya know what’s more annoying that people saying Die Hard is their favorite Xmas movie?Saying “in order for it to be a Christmas movie, it needs to be essential to the plot.” omg no it doesn’t. In almost every case it’s just an arbitrary setting element used to manipulate you and compensate for plot.

Have you see all the UFO sightings?!
Me: yeah.
So are you worried about aliens about to make contact?!
Me: …I mean, I’m presently worried about the collapse of the middle class and my ability to retire, but I guess if there are aliens, I just hope they’re not capitalists, ya know?
Me: yeah.

The Apartment, a beautifully filmed black and white romcom that won best picture in 1960, and the plot takes place between Christmas and New Year’s Eve. So it’s a holiday movie. Jack Lemmon & Shirley MacLaine are adorable and if you don’t mind seeing her slapped in the face a dozen times, it’s sweet
