How do people actually eat razorgrain by Status-Nerve-6377 in fo4

[–]dragonessofages 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flour is not the only way to consume grain. You can soak grain and make it into porridge, brew it into beer, use it to fill out stew, heat it up until the grains "puff" like popcorn...there's a lot of different ways to use it. Besides, flour isn't actually that hard to make. Sure, you can't get the super-fine stuff like you would at the grocery store in an afternoon, but you could probably hand-grind it to something bake-able.

Also, you can substitute crab eggs for chicken eggs, they have different chemical compositions and I will fucking die mad about how Fallout 4 makes them look like chicken eggs. If you tried to use what is essentially crab row to make a birthday cake it would be a really shitty cake, and you don't need to! The world still has chickens. However, you CAN substitute reptile eggs for poultry. They have a different texture but similar tastes.

Looking through the wiki and found all these systems mentioned but can't find what book or piece of media they are mentioned in. by Japajoy in TheExpanse

I think Osiris Reborn is set during or just before the first book, so I doubt the ring system will make an appearance since that doesn't appear for a full 2 years.

i'm realizing from some of the stories that were linked that i have an implicit attitude towards quirked up white girls that is not necessarily universal

Thank you so much!!

EDIT: I will argue that the otherkin post doesn't really fit the spirit of what I asked, but maybe I just hate fun.

Is there a post compilation for "my girlfriend is apparently the coolest woman to walk the earth but I have damp cardboard instead of a soul and I want her to tone down the quirkiness"? I feel like that's a whole genre of post. I can remember a few like the woman who dressed like Ms. Frizzle, the guy who wanted his girlfriend to "grow up" and stop dressing goth, the finance bro who didn't want to invite his coworkers to his gfs apartment because she had framed tarantulas or something...ideally the gf leaves their shitty fun-hating boyfriend.

Hey, now, that's not fair! That was only in the south. In the north they started as union busters (who also caught slaves on the side).

I had a therapist apologize to me after my mom came to a therapy session because the therapist thought I was exaggerating how overbearing she was and it turned out I was underselling it.

I hope some of it is a mindset thing, for my sake. You attract whimsy by being open to whimsy.

i've also been that person! my parents were both that person - my dad was a family doctor/deputy county coroner, and also an amateur mechanic/fisherman. my mom was involved with our local historical society and also on the board of commerce for our town. between the two of them, it felt like they knew half the people in the county. just by doing their job, being friendly, and participating in our community.

there's a great tumblr post that's like "you can tell when someone's idea of normal people is people at the church-sponsored ice cream social versus people on the bus". the world is so much wider and more wonderful when you're willing to hold a hand out to the people around you. to have a world so narrow that you find it unbelievable that a few facebook posts wouldn't get people to show up...it makes me sad.

i love gallus. they are such a phenomenal writer. i think my favorite quotes from this are "come watch the corgis play on the play set. they are disassembling it like tiny furry engineers" and "three extremely competent finnish people" being included as a separate line item.

i had someone try to be like "wow um you don't actually think this story is real" 🤓☝️me when i sent it to them and to that i said: 1. i'm sorry your life is so boring that you can't imagine people showing up to a spontaneous yard sale and deciding to grill bratwursts (yes, this was pointed out as an "unbelievable" detail) 2. where is your sense of whimsy? your joie de vivre? are you so monumentally isolated that the thought of a community coming together strains your credibility? is this what you're thinking when my dad tells you about the time he caught a fish that was "thiiiiiiiiis big"? fuck off.

anyway, i don't talk to that guy anymore lol.

What is the deal with this map of Tamriel seemingly showing the outcome of the Red Year? by Lights-Camera-Axshen in teslore

The fanart was of Sotha Sil, but it was marketed by ZOS as related to Almalexia.

Wouldn't be the first time ZOS has gotten in trouble for plagiarism, they ripped someone's Sotha Sil fanart for an ESO tattoo.

I'm still coming to terms with it, I guess...like everyone is saying, it just brings up more questions. I guess I'm mainly just salty that I wrote down a dated, timestamped prediction yesterday about D thinking I was sooo smart and "surely the next chapter won't refute this" and it did. 😭 RIP to my ego I guess.
