Cringe is one of those words used to put down people who are happy just doing their own thing


Architectural orientation is important, so I’ll take your word on it


You’re welcome!

Sometimes it’s nice to have an internet experience that isn’t shaped by dark patterns, where you can genuinely be surprised by ordinary things


Are they a sugar daddy if they just let you sleep in their bed so you’re not homeless?


The aliens only hug when you’re not looking, so how would you know?


Time moves slower in comic books


Mmm, shrimp would be good!

I’ve managed to do pork well in the past, but have to admit about 90% of what I cook is vegetarian, lol

Thanks again, next time I do the food shopping I’ll pick up some fish to practice with, then on to shrimp


Hmm, I’m starting to see why you might have not had an exciting life


Well, thank you for the tips, they’re great fully received!

Also, apt username


Hmm, my cooker is quite variable. It’s old, and runs off a butane bottle. I’m not sure I have the bandwidth while cooking to add thermometering into the mix


I might start out with some fish, and work my way up to doing shellfish.

It’s odd, I don’t get this anxiety over cooking land-based meat


In that case, can I interest you in a little crystal meth?



I have extensive experience with those, so that’s probably the lens I viewed the comment through.


This sounds like gold advice, thank you! Most of my cooking is based off vibes rather than a timer (apart from steak, which I do very well even if I do say so myself).

Would squid or octopus be easier or harder to do? My partner really likes them, but so far I’ve only been brave enough to do ready-battered squid rings in the oven, which isn’t real cooking.


Thank you!

My partner likes seafood, so I suppose I should indulge her sometimes and build up my confidence


Maybe she just wanted to know if it’s possible




I’m always nervous around cooking proper seafood … getting the timing right so as to get something that won’t give food poisoning nor would be better used as a door jamb - is there a trick to it?

I can, I just don’t want to …

So, what did you cook?


Because sometimes people need shelter, food, or protection

It can still be a transaction without money changing hands


Lots of people have this big chasm between fantasy and reality that they just can’t get over

It’s been solidly good the last few years

Or just don’t buy it from a truck stop


I’ve edited the title.

Yes, I’m feeling aggressive.

I’m going to go back to reading comics. It’s a good escape from reality.

Is it shocking? Am I that desensitised? Because I saw it and just thought to myself “yeah, that’s about right”

I certainly find this much easier to process than yet another news story of women having various horrors put upon them right now.

I feel like I’m coming apart with each one. I don’t want know, but how can I not at least give them the dignity of knowing that it’s happening? Even while I sit here powerless to do anything about it.

Yes. And violence is all around us. And it’s not ok. And sometimes I feel like I could just explode from how I’m supposed to just accept or ignore that.

Okay. Would a text-based attempt to start a discussion of the violence meted out on women’s bodies be more acceptable?

It’s art. And social commentary. And subversive because of the noodiness.

Feeling cultured today, are we?
