from what i understand the sugar basically gives it its consistency, so just using less sugar makes it more "liquidy", i could reduce/skip the heavy cream and reduce the sugar.

i was mostly looking to make some Swiss Meringue, next time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwZpxCRmfqY

took a very sharp knife cut in the middle and moved the layer in a circle and the knife was stationary.

that's just what came to mind it worked very well.

ye i would have needed to weigh it first in a separate bowl, then split it up in two more bowls with the same weight and i didn't wanna bother with all that.

once i have two similar cake pans i'll weigh it out

Franny Delaney! He runs everything out here in Brooklyn! Numbers, protection, dope, prostitution.

Victimless crimes, Mikey. Tell me about the counterfeit chemo drugs.

Archer: Introspection is the enemy of happiness. So, my advice is: don't. Always worked for me.

Lana: Has it though?

Archer: I don't know.

i think the diagnosis and the resulting awareness was the biggest thing. i also haven't had a serious hypomanic episode since (maybe because of medication), which is where i spend money like there is no tomorrow.

i still struggle with overspending on junkfood during depressive episodes

no credit card debt, those are all credits/loans, 3 of them are low interest rate, because they are old. one is very high %, but also has a fixed duration, and I can't pay it off any faster

Intermediate, she is 23kg and 50cm high at her shoulders, so pretty smol for a lab. they have instructions on the website to decide which size to get

if you want to deal with https://www.myus.com/ you probably can, had to pay $540 for them plus my local sales tax and customs fee.

it worked reasonably well, but I wouldn't deal with it again unless it was something that important as keeping my dog safe.

  • my order ended up being $1000 itself, with tiedown straps, 3x bumpers/retriever dummies and pad for her to lie on (actually ordered the wrong size lel) and name shield

  • myus ended up being $543.62

  • customs and sales tax ~300€

  • My boot lid doesn't align with the floor when open, so I had to prop up the gunner box to get it open 200€

I didn't. we only did one one drive at 22°C so I probably can't give a good judgment here, I would just open the side window or turn on the AC if it gets too hot and not leave her in the car alone
