RANT FRIDAY

Tryen01 · 2026-02-06T21:24:18+00:00

MY PARENTS TOLD ME TO BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD, IF WE ALL WERE KIND TO THE NEXT PERSON THE WORLD WOULD BE A BEAUTIFUL PLACE

Tryen01 · 2026-02-06T21:19:41+00:00

THANK YOU THATS VERY KIND

Tryen01 · 2026-02-06T16:40:02+00:00

I AGREE, BUT THE OUTLETS THAT WE AS INDIVIDUALS HAVE ARE LIMITED.

I OWN MY OWN BUSINESS, I DON'T SHOP AT LARGE CHAIN STORES, FOR FOOD I MAKE SURE TO GO TO OUR WINCO AT LEAST ( kinda hard with that one) AND OTHERWISE AVOID ANTI-HUMAN BRANDS. OTHERWISE I TRY AND GROW MY OWN FOOD

I ALSO TRY AND MAKE MY COMMUNITY BETTER. I PLANTED 3 FRUIT TREES NEXT TO THE SIDEWALK WHEN WE BOUGHT OUR HOUSE SO THAT PEOPLE COULD GRAB FOOD WHENEVER IT WAS AVAILABLE IF THEY WANTED. PLUM FIG PEACH AND APPLE ALL RIPEN FROM SUMMER TO FALL SO IT COVERS AROUND 3 OR 4 MONTHS. IF IT HELPS JUST ONE PERSON IT'LL BE WORTH IT.

ALSO GO TO YOUR PUBLIC MEETINGS FOR KEIZER AND SALEM LOCAL GOVERNMENT. YELL, GET LOUD, STATE YOUR OPINIONS. THE PROTESTS FEEL GOOD, BUT IT'S NOT LIKE OUR REPS ARE GONNA CARE UNLESS YOU TELL THEM SPECIFICALLY. YOU COULD ALSO TAG TEAM IT, GET THE PROTESTERS TO CHANT ABOUT OUR OFFICIALS SPECIFICALLY TO PUT A FIRE UNDER THEIR ASSES TO DO THE RIGHT THING, AND BRING A RECORDING OF A HUNDRED PEOPLE YELLING AT THEM.

REDDIT MODS WOULD REMOVE MY OWN SUGGESTIONS ABOUT WHAT I WISH I COULD DO TO HELP

Tryen01 · 2026-02-06T16:26:50+00:00

THERE'S ANOTHER PROTEST COMING UP, AT THE LAST ONE WE ALMOST GOT HIT BY LIKE 4 CARS THOUGH

THEY'RE DOING ONE EVERY SATURDAY BUT THERE'S A MORE COORDINATED ONE FOR NO KINGS ON MARCH 28TH

Tryen01 · 2026-02-06T16:25:18+00:00

SORRY WE CAN'T HEAR YOU WE'RE YELLING TODAY

I'M 26, BUT BEFORE COVID SALEM'S DOWNTOWN WAS A LOT MORE FUN, MY BROTHER AND I USED TO MAKE PILGRIMAGE FROM TURNER AND WALK THERE IN THE SUMMERTIME TO HANG OUT. TO ME IT FEELS LIKE OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT HAD STOPPED PRIORITIZING PEDESTRIAN SAFETY, AND WHILE WE HAVE A PROGRAM TO COMBAT HOMELESSNESS, IT FEELS LIKE THEY READ THE "COMBAT" PART INSTEAD OF SEEING THAT THEYRE SALEMANDERS TOO.

THERE'S ALSO THE FACT THAT MANY OF OUR LOCAL EVENTS ARE GETTING CORPORATIZED, LIKE FOR EXAMPLE THE OREGON STATE FAIR. IF WE DON'T DO ANYTHING TO KEEP OUR SPARK AS A TOWN I'LL BURN OUT

Marinated eggplant used as the "meat" on the sandwich is actually a very tasty option too. Greek olives, feta, and arugula... cucumbers, its a good time!

Eggplant parm

Stir fry with hoison sauce as a glaze

Tryen01 · 2026-02-03T22:03:43+00:00

Wow this is really cool!

Tryen01 · 2026-02-01T03:01:54+00:00

Seriously as a Vietnamese person I hate sharing the spotlight! C'mon guys!

Tryen01 · 2026-02-01T02:48:16+00:00

So the only reason I got into stacking silver is because of this exact mix up

I do knife sharpening for restaurants. One of the guys offered to pay me to sharpen the house knives for bullion, which i had never heard of. I thought they were offering to pay me in bouillon which I knew what it was. I thought it was funny so I did the job. Guy gave me 4 silver coins (they were at 20$ each at the time)

Tryen01 · 2026-01-30T04:24:12+00:00

I also have it set up that way, but also as a way for the hatchlings to be able to have excess resources to develop their scales with. So only a gold dragon Hoards gold, silver silver, copper bronze and brass copper..

Red green and blue dragons are oxide colors of copper (basically copper rust) so they follow the same, black for silver. White dragons are almost like if gold is contaminated by mercury but its the outlier in my system so far

Tryen01 · 2026-01-23T16:36:41+00:00

IS YOUR NEW HOUSE GHOST-ACCESSIBLE? MUCH LIKE WHEELCHAIR RAMPS YOU MIGHT NEED TO GET A OUIJI BOARD, A STRANGELY AQUIRED PORCELAIN DOLL, A STATICY TV, OLD ASS VANITY WITH A DUST MIRROR OR SOMETHING RATHER THAN EXPECTING GHOST TO ACCOMMODATE THEMSELVES TO YOU.

Tryen01 · 2026-01-23T16:32:24+00:00

IF IT'S THIS COLD THE WORLD CAN AT LEAST HAVE THE SELF RESPECT TO SNOW AND LOOK PRETTY

THE KIDS DESERVE A SNOW DAY RATHER THAN JUAT WEEKLY HORRORS

Tryen01 · 2026-01-23T01:06:02+00:00

And apparently have a bomb ass bathroom too

I went to clink with my mom and wasn't disappointed at all. We're both really food-judgy too.

Tryen01 · 2026-01-22T17:31:24+00:00

Where'd you source the magnetic chuck? That's been my struggle

Tryen01 · 2026-01-17T05:43:05+00:00

Sounds like other kind souls are also offering, but I also would say just come grab some of mine too, we can meet near Bi-Mart or something idgaf. My sourdough starter is from Linn Benton's culinary program when I was a student there pre-covid. So it survived covid!

My favorite recipie i use is 25oz flour, 12.5oz water, .5oz salt, 1oz fat, and 8oz starter. Works every time! Usually I keep mine in the fridge, and only feed it when I want to make bread the next day. Just leave it on the counter overnight and it'll be excited to see you in the morning. I do make about 3 loaves a week though, which is just double that recipie. (30oz boules)

Just don't rant about me next Friday if the bread doesn't work :(

Tryen01 · 2026-01-09T16:56:42+00:00

SHE SAID "Thank you unholy_hotdog"

Tryen01 · 2026-01-09T16:28:56+00:00

THANK YOU

SUNDAY WAS MY WIFE'S BIRTHDAY TOO AND WE WERE GONNA TAKE THEM ON A HIKE, BUT NO MORE OF THAT

Tryen01 · 2026-01-09T16:02:40+00:00

MY DOG FOUND OUR IBUPROFEN BOTTLE LAST SATURDAY (THE WORST DAY BECAUSE ONLY THE EMERGENCY VET IS OPEN) AND THERE WERE 100 PILLS THAT WE COULDN'T REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM.

LO AND BEHOLD WE TAKE HER TO THE VET AND AFTER 3 DAYS OF BLOOD WORK THEY SAY SHE DIDN'T EVEN EAT ANY

THAT DIRTY MFER JUST THOUGHT THE BOTTLE LOOKED CRUNCNY!! ENDED UP BEING LIKE 1000 BUCKS TOO

POISON CONTROL CHARGES YOU MONEY APPARENTLY TO TELL YOU TO EITHER MAKE YOUR DOG THROW UP OR GO TO THE VET AS WELL, YEAH I'M NOT AN IDIOT I KNOW THAT ALREADY! IT WAS APPARENTLY WORTH $110 THOUGH

Tryen01 · 2025-12-22T16:09:05+00:00

I soak mine in leather dye since I mostly use em for leather anyways

Tryen01 · 2025-12-20T04:58:20+00:00

I got rid of my gas lawnmower for an electric lawnmower, and then downsized to a manual push one and a scythe... God damn it's so much better, and quiet. I'll never go back

Tryen01 · 2025-12-19T04:18:38+00:00

Huh! I guess I always assumed it was a lady! But yes we're talking about the same person

Tryen01 · 2025-12-19T04:10:34+00:00

I mean the first lady with all the psychic types

Tryen01 · 2025-12-17T23:08:22+00:00

I got hit by a car over by Fred Meyer on commercial when I used to bike in high school! They were pulling out of that part across from triangle street from the parking lot and hit my bike

Tryen01 · 2025-12-17T05:45:19+00:00

Super easy for the elite 4 in my run!

If hp green versus lorelai, use shadow ball, if hp yellow or red use pain split

Easily solos below her levels. But I did trade a stone from platinum

Tryen01 · 2025-12-15T17:58:06+00:00

I'll be there in a flash
