topped with Salmon Furikake.

It’s absolutely delicious but my wife is making me eat it in the basement so i thought y’all might appreciate.

Slackware took like 40 3.5" double sided double density disks, and woe betide the poor soul who didn’t label them because the stack was a foot high and you damn well would get them mixed up.

When doing it from home I would frequently run into issues that required me to completely reinstall dos and Telemate to go back to usenet and get help, print the help and then take another stab.

Dos and Linux had different opinions about SCSI chain termination so this usually involved full cover off to move jumpers on the hard drives and sometimes irq jumpers on the motherboard to get the modem AND sound card working right.

Then the fact that to get online once you had slackware installed required you to write your own SLIP/PPP dialup scripts because every ISP was doing their own thing.

Honestly it was a fucking wonderful time. Many happy memories.

here and now it’s the hottest summer of my life and they say it’s only going to get hotter, but nobody talks about the causes or solutions they just are happy they get a few extra days of sunshine, or complain about the damn power companies outages without talking about the ever increasing power demands caused by the same issue.

I don’t want to be ‘that girl’ bringing everyone down so I keep the discussions online where others seem interested in discussing the issue

yo the Shenandoah Valley is absolutely beautiful. A pleasure to drive through. The caverns you can go into are absolutely worth a visit!

Luray Caverns is so worth the price the formations inside are just amazing

Skyline Caverns is just as good. My favorite thing about the caverns is the cool stillness of the air underground.

that’s the one yup

Lola by The Kinks in 1970,

The song details a romantic encounter in a SOHO bar between a young man and the eponymous Lola, who is possibly a trans woman or cross-dresser.

one of the lyrics references her cola tasting lips

with no other context I would assume a reference to the biblical depiction of death.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat upon him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword, and with hunger, and with death and with the beasts of the earth.

Rockstar parking, we call it!

whoever i’m doin’ a dooduet with

that’s why it’s called a number Two btw

oh no I thought this was a courtesy water bottle filler for my room 🤮

no we share the bidet!

refer to it as bracing and pretend I have a high constitution

lately i have been mixing avocado, salsa and pure fermented habanero sauce and slapping that on lettuce and arugula it’s so good

oatmeal, avocado, brown rice, beans

if you can find a local restaurant supply store they also have the huge cheap as shit bags of rice and beans

i was making toum from recipes and I loved it but worried ‘it can’t surely be this garlicy’ and finally tried store toum and it was identical it really really is that garlicy. soooo good on pita with falafel

I’m tell you this and I would love to know if anyone agrees; Starfield’s entire ship combat mode is stunningly similar to the Wing Commander series. I’d bet the farm some lead devs or PMs were fans of WC.

Granted you are always going to be limited within a genre however to me;

• the views feel the same
• ship handling is very very similar
• the way you transfer power between systems is identical in practice and visual design
• weapons are similar in function and feel
• enemy ships come at you in similar counts and formations

you can’t control individual shield direction and you can’t ram enemies and do damage but otherwise every time space combat starts i expect a little PIP cat to start talking shit.

that must have felt so good!

shoutout to transvoicelessons on youtube Z and Clover are amazing the videos (5 is my favorite) are so helpful

oh i’m stealing ‘in a couple years ago’ that’s great.

I think one nice thing about transitioning later is it seems easier for us to not give a fuck. I sort of force-masced myself 30 years ago and now i’m delighting in undoing all of that.

The affirmations really work, especially if you say them out loud. A lot of advertising and self hypnosis works because the brain puts fewer filters between direct audio and your mind. If you distract the executive network and the salience network is relaxed your brain just kind of accepts things it hears at a low level.

Good luck darling I believe in you <3
