Ooh, are you doing a thing every month or just periodically?

Most of the time I fermented garlic in the jar with the peppers, and depending on what I was doing I’d also ferment them with onion, carrots, or pears. You can also use cheesecloth and twine to make a little fermenting tea bag for things like peppercorns and mustard seed to keep in with the peppers.

As for the post ferment my staples were: caramelized onion, honey, lime juice and/or apple vinegar, msg. I’d often add fresh bell peppers for a little brightness, mango or pineapple, fresh or roast garlic, you can really play around in this stage. You can also run fermented honey garlic alongside and add that in after the peppers ferment.

My better recipe notes are going to be harder to find they’re in a notebook somewhere but here’s some of my digital ones. The section header shows what was in the jar during ferment (so like ‘hab + garl’ means habanero and garlic) with the other stuff being what was added post ferment. Ferm juice is the brine, truff is truffle oil. All of these also have an unlisted amount of canola oil I’d slowly add in during blending until the immersion felt right.

If you want to go above and beyond impressing people with homemade hot sauce grab something like these: https://www.nicebottles.com/catalog/5ozwoozyshrinks

I used to make my own hot sauces and printed off custom labels too. Throw them in a woozy with the plastic heat seal and people lose their shit over them

I wrote down a handful of my recipes somewhere if you want any of them

The kindest most caring person I know works in a toy store. Second most is a phlebotomist

Unless I’m missing something about how to use it the text tool in Krita is terrible though. Been designing cards with people the last few weeks and we ended up making the general design and layout in Krita then brought things into GIMP to add text

When I was living in Seattle legal nudity was one of the big perks for me! On hot days I’d go around topless, completely nude sometimes, it was amazing. I am trans so the main concern was from phobes periodically trying to threaten me, and on a couple occasions where I was being a bit more wild with things like waving trans flags around while nude I’d have police called on me. They couldn’t ever do anything about it though no indecency here officer

Find a surface that doesn’t matter if it gets messy, grab a bunch of paper and notebooks, a couple packs of cheap oil pastels, some glitter paint, water colors etc, then take 5g of mushrooms. Did that for my last birthday. I was covered in pigments and oils absolutely thrilled out of my mind. Was one of the most fun and brain relaxing things I’ve done

It’s a programming idle/incremental game. Has a bit of a learning curve (not bad if you already know how to code) but it is my favorite programming game. It scratches so many itches and it really invites players to explore. There are even secret achievements you can only get by messing with the source code and rebuilding it!

That’s an incredibly difficult map to decipher

Doesn’t ‘ant’ mean not and ‘arc’ is without? So it’s really closer to ‘without penguins’ and ‘not without penguins’

Misgendering, deadnaming, and broadly “it’s just bullying get over it” type speech leads to suicides particularly by younger people. The problem has multiple fronts: people need support to get them through the toughest times, thick skin to keep the day to day manageable, and social spaces need some degree of checks to keep from going full toxic

Personally I don’t mind being deadname or misgendered I think it’s funny. I’m a survivor bias though I’ve made it to my thirties being unphased. Other people who used to be around me who couldn’t handle the aggressions did not make it to their thirties. One of my oldest friends attempted suicide four times that I know of over this type of speech being directed at them. They’re only alive right now because they were lucky enough to keep being pulled back from death until they could grow that thicker skin you’re talking about

Around Seattle there are hot tub rafts. People motor around the Puget in them and definitely don’t get hammered 😂

What are some of the others?

You can use archinstall and it is dummy simple. Just have another computer or phone around to look things up and go down the menu like a checklist. My admittedly limited arch experience has so far been “run archinstall, use pacman to install tools as I run into things I’d like to have”. I have a Framework 16 with the built in GPU, I imagine some hardware complicates this process but just look stuff up it’s all out there unless you’re on some really wild hardware. Even without archinstall you can follow the arch wiki and you’re basically replicating what the tool does but using the wiki as your checklist and needing to type more

Do I have to be a citizen of the EU or just live there? I’m going to be moving to Sweden soon but won’t be a citizen for a long while still

Haha what that can’t possibly be true!

Yikes…

I have some kind of unspecified dissociative disorder and it’s weird. The other day I was having a stress response to some stuff. Woke up, remember some stuff about the morning, then remember coming back into existence that evening. The entire house was cleaned including garage and driveway. I had been talking with people too. I think I remember parts of it but I don’t actually know if they’re post-dissociation manufactured memories as my brain tried to fill in the gap. Malls are the worst for me they’re a sensory nightmare and I’ll usually start dissociating within a few minutes.

I’ve gotten so used to it that I’ve built up a “what am I doing?” skill set. Sometimes I’m just suddenly somewhere else in the house or in a different part of town shopping or some shit. I have to piece together what’s going on like in Memento. Am I me during those times I can’t remember? DID has been ruled out but if I can’t remember things than what exactly is running the body while I’m away? People who interact with me say I respond to stuff slowly, in a confused or dreamlike way, and need things repeated to me multiple times. Sometimes they can pull me out of it then they have to explain where we are and what we’re doing.

Imagine watching a movie and periodically hitting the next scene button. Sometimes you skip a little bit, sometimes a lot, and you need to piece together what was missed based on limited info.

You can get them cremated but I’ve always gone for the “ask someone with a car to drive me out into nowhere and pick any ol spot that isn’t too close to water”. Depending on timing this sometimes requires me to wrap them up and pop them in the freezer for a couple days which isn’t stellar feeling but gets the job done

I found a regex checker and it helped so much thank you for the suggestion! I think I better understand what’s going on and was able to use that to modify it to work closer to how I want. Currently I have "#[^\s#][^\s" + string.punctuation + "#]*"

So what I think is going on is it looks for # followed by not whitespace or another # (before it was matching on headers with multiple pound signs). Then keep looking until it runs into a whitespace, punctuation, another # (in the case of multiple tags) for as many characters as needed.

My use case is to be able to turn the tags into links to pages with a list of pages including that tag. What I do is blindly replace the tag to where a page should exist, log the tag, and later gather up all the found tags to make the pages with lists. The punctuation was because I had some tags in weird places like the end of sentences that was adding a period or comma to it and making a unique tag (like #Homeworld at the top of a file vs. Find better tag than #Homeworld. as a note)

I’m going to open source the tool once I get it working at base level but it’s going to be pretty bare bones and dedicated to my needs
