I love Christmas, and I love spending the day with family and exchanging gifts. But my favorite part of the day is the suspension of food rules, and dinner is potato chips, garlic bread, and Hershey's Kisses, because those are the easiest to grab.

In food history, we notice how super-refined foods--gelatin, vienna sausage, white bread--lose class and become horrifying once they become industrialized. Suddenly, fingermarks in bread dough demonstrate skill, not clumsiness.
Post-chatGPT, I'm feeling this about writing. Smoothness feels gross.

Are you scared, angry, or overwhelmed by the illegal and immoral actions of the Trump administration?
If so, got any plans for Saturday, October 18th?
There’s going to be protests all across the country, and you can see if there’s one near you at the link in the replies.

We are seeing systemic injustice being built in real-time. Someone (RFK Jr) in a position of authority (Dir. HHS) is actively advocating against a targeted group (autistic ppl) and using that authority to enact official policies seeking their disenfranchisement.

being an indie bookseller in the helltimes has felt both very stable and very stabilizing, and part of me wishes everyone could be on my side of the counter for a little while, because I think it would help some of you be a little less cynical and doomy right now. so here is my VERY anecdotal data:

What if TikTok were a nonprofit? A platform to allow small businesses/entertainers to engage with users and promote their goods/services without needing an advertising budget, a shop to sell things on that helps pay for the org, and paid advertisements are a tax write-off.

Probably my biggest cooking pet peeve is when onions won’t peel quickly.
Your peel comes off in atomic-sized bits, and then you have the gall to sting MY eyes? I’m no longer cooking you simply for sustenance, my mortal enemy. I’m cooking you for revenge.
