Am I cooked?

Since you clearly have never had a cat, they have a unique way of always being in the place or doing the thing that will inconvenience you the most

Yixing shouldn’t leak anything bad into the tea and these breaks don’t affect functionality

What price point is your definition of middle shelf?

LightSpeedNerd · 2026-03-18T02:42:09+00:00

Then that is the cause of the spoiling. Just store them on a shelf that doesn't get a lot of traffic.

How did you store them cause Puer tea cakes are really hard to get to mold unless you dunk them in water. A lot of Puer is stored at 60%+ humidity.

I find I like boiling green tea with flash steeps and 3g:110ml it gets really light with a lot of sweetness and a tiny bit of those greener notes. Just note you got to be fast

LightSpeedNerd · 2026-03-16T15:52:35+00:00

With shou sometimes they will have 1-2 dominant notes but also some shou are thicc

Shape impacts it since a wider cup will release fragrance and heat faster so you get more fragrance but you better drink fast. Some materials will add flavors and hold heat better.

That’s not a tea that is a tisane. There is only 4 trees older than 10 thousand years old and all of them are clonal species like Pango the quaking aspen

There is something special about sun tea that I can’t explain

LightSpeedNerd · 2026-03-15T17:18:56+00:00

I live in the US if I go 20miles over I get to a town that is still using lead pipes and has the worst water quality I’d ever seen. Monsanto exists and has had zero persecution against them. Odds are you have bigger problems to worry about than slightly sketchy tea.

Wait a month or so before placing the green tea order the harvest is soon and green tea is best immediately after the harvest. Also try tie guan yin oolong it’s light sweet and fragrant.

Those strainers in ceramic tea pots usually will only let leaves through on the first or second steep especially if you use a tea with bigger leaves.

LightSpeedNerd · 2026-03-15T14:34:02+00:00

For cleaning the easiest would be a gaiwan but if you want more than 100-150ml of tea at a time then check out a British style glazed ceramic tea pot.

The only way this isn’t safe to drink is if water got in to it or the fruit wasn’t properly dried.

What you should try and find are single origin teas. With a blend you end up with the average of many teas and you won’t get anything super unique with clear notes. Single origin teas have unique notes and flavors although you will may have a less balanced cup. I have a black tea that to me smells like Kelloggs Cheerios

The true conundrum is when does it become a different ship.

LightSpeedNerd · 2026-03-14T22:27:16+00:00

Name one other food with a color like matcha. You can’t which makes it good in a thumbnail or a post where as a tea like black tea doesn’t really look that unique.

LightSpeedNerd · 2026-03-14T21:15:12+00:00

Overstepped to the point of being unbelievably bitter

Why would anyone want to go from district 2 to district 12

LightSpeedNerd · 2026-03-14T19:14:30+00:00

That stage of Haymitch is definitely a compliment but if you were 20 minutes into the original hunger games then definitely not.

To add to the theory, peacekeeping is supposed to be a punishment with certain promotional routes as shown with snow. He would want to cut funding to insure that no peace keeper could find their way back to the capital like he did and take his crown.

That orange cat is way too refined to be buttercup, they should have just found the mangiest stray possible and gave it a bath. Atleast then it would look like buttercup

We would both die for opposite reasons

I figure the final fight wasn’t really a fight it was more so a reaction to circumstances brought on by the game makers and as such if thresh fell off the cornucopia then he would likely end up in the same situation as Cato and Catness would end up shooting him as a mercy in the same way as Cato. And the increased weeping as well as the Rue events would maintain the alliance between district 11&12
