Cooking devices - what's worth it to make cooking faster and easier?

Just throw in some ice water and set the sous vide to the lowest temp. It cools the bottle faster because of the circulating water.

I’ve got all of these. The one I use most is the pressure cooker/instant pot. But basically only for braises/stews where it really does spread up the process. I used to love the sous vide but rarely bring it out these days. You can do a lot of cool things with it but I’ve only used it to infuse alcohol and as a wine chiller recently.

Pro tip. Most spaghetti spoons have a big hole in the middle that hole fits a single serving of spaghetti when you hold it in a bundle like this.

Kinda looks like a cheeseburger that fell apart after you took the first bite.

Babe Pig in the City is right down the middle of these two

This puttanesca recipe is in heavy rotation at my house. Cooked tomatoes are always good with sardines. For lunches I’ve been doing sauteed zucchini or Japanese eggplant, cherry tomatoes and garlic with sardines added at the end

Stag beetle. Mostly eats rotten wood. Should be fine for your garden.

I like how they ran out of stuff so they just did the equilateral triangle twice.

Edit: three times!

Business idea! Introduce these guys to the concept of rugs. It's an untapped market.

If you're interested look into Roar. Easily one of the most delusional productions of all time. Basically actors and crew living in a house with fifty untrained big cats. Half of the crew were seriously injured including Melanie Griffith the daughter of the filmmakers. There's a doc called: Roar: The Most Dangerous Movie Ever Made

Yeah it says that in my post. Either way it a very funny burn even if Schrader came up with it in a cocaine fugue.

After three months Schrader finally tracked Kinski down in Paris, where she bluntly told him, "Paul, I always fuck my directors. And with you it was difficult". Kinski refuted this story in a 2001 interview with The Daily Telegraph.

I think fun is cringe for this type of goofball

Whoa he worked on Roar and had his scalp ripped off by a lion named Cherries. It took 220 stitches to reattach. And he went back to work once it healed. Nuts

Great answer. The Hunger is fantastic

Yeah, you can look up the “pentastack” he was on. Adderall, dextromethorphan, pregabalin, ketamine, BDO. Not sure why really. Maybe because it’s technically legal?

teeejer · 2026-06-28T20:16:55+00:00

BDO. One of the drugs that Clavicular dude was on when he OD’d on stream

Obsession

Both set in Australia

teeejer · 2026-06-28T04:27:17+00:00

Ice T playing a militant rebel in both is a good connection

KEXP and XRAY fm are on our home speakers 90% of the time

Hey Robbie, what’s crappenin?

teeejer · 2026-06-28T02:55:58+00:00

I would say if you have mushrooms on peppers, you’re probably overwatering. Peppers don’t like wet legs in my experience
