Hey Siri, What Is The Resonant Frequency Of Large Town?

More brain dough content!

now: nuclear pasta!

I love the creativity of those silly scientists - Quantum foam [termed by John A. Wheeler some decades ago] was just the beginning! Now come all sorts of nuclear pasta - nuclear gnocchi, spaghetti, waffles, lasagna... etc... Who said physics is not [f/y]ummy? [funny and/or yummy]

Playing dnd with a bunch of stem majors is an Experience. Astrophysics dm is finding creative ways to include their original solar system. I predict we have three sessions until we are launched into space. Marine biologist is very salty about her water genasi not having dark vision. Another likes to get Very Realistic with nerve damage and we are dreading the day when we can no longer bs medical stuff. I, a druid-barbarian, am presented with a symbolically withering tree and ask if the dm knows what arbuscular mycorrhizae is. I can hear the combination of curiosity and fear in their voice when they say no.

My fellow American hobby bakers, demoralized by egg prices and scarcity and how you will make the American apple pie or the chocolate chip cookie, fear not. I have spent many years turning regular baking recipes vegan for my corrupt and traitorous sister who last week ate a salmon cream cheesed roll. There are many, many substitutes for eggs including but not limited to:

Mashed banana: best added to compliment flavors of whatever it is you're baking (peanut butter, chocolate) make sure it's MUSHY and ripe

Apple sauce: again, best with complimentary flavors (cinnamon, brown sugar) use unsweetened and have the rest as a snack

The big boy champ, ground flaxseed: flavorless, though it does darken your batter/ dough a bit. Bags found next to cornstarch and almond meal, etc. Instructions on how to use right on the bag! Make sure to let the flaxseed water combo sit in a separate bowl until it has the consistency of mucus 👍

Now with all of these you MUST add a bit more leavener, they don't have the lil bit of lift eggs give, so make sure you add a touch more baking powder. Sort of ok for brownies and cookies if you want them a bit more dense but KEY for cakes, quick breads, muffins and other things like that or she is gonna be SQUIDGY 🫡

Monday, March 31st, at 7pm at the Minnesota state capitol, a crowd of over 100 gathered to watch trans people publicly take their HRT (all forms).

The action was put on by a group called TIGERRS (trans, intersex, gender expansive resources and services) and purposefully mentioned that all trans, intersex, gender expansive folks and their friends were welcome, and if they didn’t want to do it publicly/don’t take HRT they should come for community anyways. The action consisted of a local marching band Unlawful Assembly playing them in, a speech by a trans 17 year old, the unraveling of the flag with a new pledge to transness by the artist, a non denominational reminder of trans divinity, public HRT taking, and ended with a sing along and break for snacks. Intersex trans folks were given orchids, and sharps containers were provided. There were registered nurses, and members of community acted as security (though there were no issues). TIGERRS also shared out the Minnesota Trans Resource Directory, a 87-page guide to trans safe doctors, mechanics, restaurants, dentists, therapists, electrolysis spaces, shelters, etc, and resources on how to move to Minnesota. The directory can be found on their website.

Trans folks are not going away. We keep ourselves safe. We share and create resources and we show up for each other. We are here forever

Can we just appreciate that taking one day off of work to prepare this seems like not nearly enough. Impressive work

Hosted my most elaborate LOTRathon + feast yet. 12 hours, 12 people, 8 courses, 2 spreadsheets, planned & executed by yours truly. I took Friday off work to prepare.

Some details under the cut.

I’ve always wanted to do a real Hobbit-style feast (instead of typical afternoon grazing board + dinner) and this year I finally did it! All the planning paid off, it went off without a hitch. 😎 Early reviews included the words “insane” and “deranged” (honorary).

As for the menu, I took inspiration from other people’s LOTR feasts (mostly from Reddit, Pinterest, etc). However I wanted mine to be sliiiightly less carb-intensive than a lot of the ones I saw, considering we’d be eating ALL day and I didn’t want everyone to get too full too early lol. So I tried to alternate heavier courses with lighter courses and served fresh fruit & veg with every course. Some courses, like Dinner (cheese & potato tart), were meant to be more of a taster than a full meal.

I also prioritized menu cohesion/my own preferences over being super “fantasy accurate”. Examples—thin, aromatic shortbread cookies instead of typical thicker/bready Lembas bread, tomato confit instead of typical Full English-style roasted/seared tomatoes.

For recipes, I found a bunch of recipes and often combined elements or used them as a base and adjusted to preference. If anyone’s interested in the recipes I can provide more details.

Finally, I also printed out relevant book/movie quotes and set them out with each course but Tumblr is limiting me on images!

All in all, a very successful showing! 🥕🧅🍅🥓🧀🍓🍇

It IS called switch…

Is it just me or does this drink scream a certain flag 😉
