Happy culmination of your birthweek, Shelly! (party favour noise)

Salmon tikka masala with black rice. Used the stove top directions for the rice, came out a little ahead of schedule. Removed from stovetop, covered. Now, everything is ready and salmon came out perfect. Again.

New Woodkid!

Salmon Vindaloo with black rice (on purple plate) from a jar, so...yes, basically the Manwich(tm) of Vindaloos

Nice!

A big enough lightning strike can always span an air gap. Otherwise that technology already exists. Craig, yeah, that’s exactly what I meant by “something like that” — hacking the power supply chain (or designing the system) to eliminate the need for AC.

Fleabag—fucking genius. I realize it’s a gimmick, but ( a ) it’s a fucking genius gimmick, and ( b ) she does it so well. She’s already throwing in nonverbals in the first episode. Nonverbals are the best! I am rapt. One of those few shows that require both watching and listening attentively.

I used to have the biggest crush on Nancy.

Onions about to go into sloppy joe/goulash base

Stanislav, husband of one of my Russkie friends since childhood, Anna Tchursin, “lost his lifelong battle with depression”, as she put it. I still blame Covid-19, albeit indirectly. I only met him once, but he was quite the character.

This was an outstanding set, thanks for sharing.

If it's any consolation, that's the water handle, the water comes out its nose.

Bleach?
