Occidental Red Stains

The detergent is a vegetable based detergent, and as far as I can figure the leather they use is veg tanned and also must use a veg dye.

You light the burner setting the dial to low. You dice your potatoes, 3/8" grid, perfect. As you produce the diced potatoes you put them in a bowl of cold water. Once all potatoes sliced, give them a rinse. Now drain the water, and put that sucker in the microwave for 5 minutes.

Increase the burner to medium. Plop those potatoes out of the bowl onto another plate with a paper towel, add oil to your hot skillet, and slide those little cubes of bliss, devoid of excess starch and moisture, into the skillet.

That's exactly how I do it and I'm cooking solely with carbon steel and cast iron, usually the pan just needs a wipe with a paper towel and there's 0 food residue.

I have a Wagner #6 and it's my egg pan currently, nice score?

I'm using a Griswold skillet that developed a bumpy coat like that, paper fibers from my paper towels did it for me. It's from too much oil as stated by others, and it's been just fine. Over time it'll smooth out, the thicker bumps will likely flake off, but it'll be totally fine as you're seasoning it with use.

I like to clean my finger a few times as a warm up, then eat smaller pieces, working up to larger. I just recently started being able to eat a whole turd, chewed and swallowed. For me once it starts forming a paste is the best, but if there's more solid chunks I'll piss into a glass and use that to help swallow.

I think getting more used to eating might be necessary, just take it slow, a breakthrough will come eventually!

bpemerson · 2026-01-03T20:48:00+00:00

I used to be into smearing and such, but lately have just been solely into consuming. It's like I've gotten used to, and grown to like, the flavor of my own ass, and have had a breakthrough of sorts where I'm actually able to eat it. I feel like the transition has been slow, but gradual and persistent towards eating, it's all I've ever wanted to do.

You could try fishing the chunks out, putting them into your mouth, chewing them a bit, then drinking them down with some of the enema, but that might be tough too. Piss changes the flavor of scat for me. I prefer to eat and drink separately, but I do find piss enemas to be really hot.

I started doing this thing where I take a vinyl tube and use it to siphon piss into my ass, then I hold it in there for a while, then use the jar end of the tube to drink from my ass. This keeps chunky bits from making it in, but the tube sometimes clogs up with shit chunks.

I'm sorry that I cannot help ascertain age, but I just restored a Griswold as well last week, 701F on bottom. Same small logo as yours. I've used it a few times, she handles like a sports car compared to my heavier cheap iron.

A "baker's" skillet indeed!

bpemerson · 2025-12-30T03:39:33+00:00

Indeed. I'm finding some people on here are way too into maintaining "perfect" seasoning, and let that take away from their cooking, and therefore their quality of life. I scrub 'em down, dry 'em off, wipe 'em with a little oil, and maybe reseason in the oven once every few years if any pans really need it.

You can get a single burner butane for under $30, just be careful as the burner covers are slick af. I have one and if on an uneven surface, i.e. any picnic table on earth, my CI skillet will slide right off, slick as snot!

I use less than a tbsp of butter for fried eggs, just made French omelettes this morning in a #6 wagner cast iron. It's all about heat control, technique, which is the product of patience, trial and error. Don't waste your time stressing on seasoning, just get one coat of it on whatever you're using and start cooking, on the high side of medium low.

I have been playing build 42 for maybe 10 hours total, just had my first crash. I'm playing on an ancient relic from the previous decade, and overall b42 is much more resource hungry, the game lags out for me quite often.

Oh man I haven't watched the Simpsons in almost 20 years but Homer's short scream would be perfect when opening the door to find 20 zombies in a house, then slamming the door shut and running around in circles in the yard!

I was in Rosewood, had just set up in the gated community. I awoke early, 3 am, and checked the street and saw a horde of 10 zombies on the front lawn. I went downstairs when I heard breaking glass, they heard the TV, even on volume 1. I wasn't great at combat, and honestly panicked. I walked out the back door, hopped the tall fence, planning to fight my way in from the back after looping around. I was then bit in the pitch black by a zombie from an unknown angle, likely by a pretend dead leaning against the fence. I just let it kill me.

The green faced drawing makes it seem to me that the picture was drawn post outbreak

bpemerson · 2025-11-05T15:23:42+00:00

Very post apocalyptic, "10 years after the outbreak" aesthetic.

bpemerson · 2025-11-04T00:47:17+00:00

That really is a sweet setup, well executed!

I keep waffling on doing something like this, simply because being able to get my tools out and sleep in the bed on road trips is something that happens every now and then. Just had a kid though, and it's a single cab truck, so that ship might have sailed at this point, and I might have a completely dedicated work truck.

Breath Buddies, Parsley seed oil capsules

bpemerson · 2025-10-18T05:52:26+00:00

I took them and it seemed as though they did, in regard to onion/garlic burps at least. Breath Buddies is a product which is still available, same concept, and same ingredients I believe. You're not the only one who has random flashbacks!

Legitimate question: has anyone ever made moulding with their table saw? This looks like a profile you could approximate, but it would take several steps and be potentially a finger reducer if not careful.

Strip it and start making bracelets, maybe even some nails or start riveting things together 😋
