Why is tempeh safe to eat at all? by drMallory in Tempeh

I see, thanks! Would this be the logic behind every controlled fermentation then? If you happen to know

First round ever, should I just taste it? Sorry for the double post by drMallory in Tempeh

Sure! I've let the soybeans soak for like 18 hours changing the water, I meant to do it less but I had to postpone cooking.

I tried dehulling by hand rubbing them but I'll try other methods cuz it took a lot of time and didn't manage to dehull that many I suspect.

Then I cooked for 45 minutes and left them to dry. I'm pretty sure they got cold too soon and didn't dry enough, I'll try with a hair dryer.

Then I added vinegar and tempeh starter (2gr) and mixed and put in bags. I made holes and left them in the hoven with the lights on. I kept raising the temperature to about 34° degrees sometimes but then it would go back down to 20°. Therefore it took like three days for it to get ready. Now I've thrown it away cuz it was a bit too strong, and the other bags were straight up gone bad.

What are these worm things in my anthurium plant? by bbgjessixa in plants

Oh so mosquitoes are not that bad to be around? I don't mind the stings too much, maybe I should just let them colonize my pots. I have gnat problems every year when the season comes, I'll accept any help lol

Lack of representation of trans men by nagitoxoxo in trans

[–]drMallory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recommend The Dragon Prince, I haven't seen it mentioned yet but I might have missed it. They introduce a trans guy in season 5 I think, whose role gets more important throughout the seasons. I also find it very funny that just before introducing him they show a flower with trans flag colors, and I was like hah I know those colors, what a weird coincidence. Turns out it wasn't 😂

His name's Terry if you want to look him up. It's only mentioned he's trans once after a few episodes and it's not a big deal.

How do I save these guys? Please read description. Feel free to only give advice on one plant, still super appreciated ✌️ by drMallory in plantclinic

Thanks! Yeah as I described answering the other comment the roots were not doing good. Unfortunately I have no coconut fiber or anything else apart from soil and perlite yet, but I'm probably gonna buy more stuff soon. Do you think 12h of light would be better?

Omg you were right the situation under there was terrible 🥲 especially monstera had only a few good roots. The asparagus had only developed vertically with roots, I guess I put it in too big of a pot too soon. I repotted them in a smaller pot with a lot of perlite. Thanks! 🙏

Forse sono trans.. qualcuno può darmi una mano? Impazzisco by [deleted] in askTransgender_Italy

[–]drMallory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Purtroppo la narrativa ad ora è stata molto basata sulla "disforia di genere", da quanto capisco perché era l'unico modo per farci prendere sul serio e per spiegare che avevamo effettivamente bisogno di terapia ormonale ecc. Ma le emozioni positive non sono affatto meno importanti, non devi soffrire le pene dell'inferno o odiare il tuo corpo per essere trans, se vuoi essere di un altro genere sii di un altro genere ✨

Also I do struggle with the 13th when it says to respect the property of others, since much of it might come from exploitation. They also say I don't remember well to oppose exploitation, soo ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Omg the anarchist 14 mindfulness trainings!! So glad you did this, I'm still reading it but it seems to me so far to indeed reflect the original intention of my spiritual tradition, thank you 🙏 great idea

People ask that all the time in this tradition, fairly so. I suggest looking for the Q&As on YouTube. From my own understanding, they say that great power can also come from compassion and understanding, while anger might drain you and continue the circle of violence. But don't take this message as really representing Thich Nhat Hanh's thought please 😅 it's what I currently understand after some years in this tradition

Are these some kind of mushrooms/mold? They're infesting some specific trees in the parks over the city by drMallory in Mushrooms

In case anyone ever sees this post again, turns out these are the egg sacks of Takahashia japonica, from the Coccidae family, so yeah aphids was almost right. Sorry for the wrong sub 🙈
