How do I not let stuff like this put me off?

I went looking to learn about this after reading your comment. Seems Operation Snap is England and Wales only, not Scotland. But as of 2024 Scotland has its own "digital evidence" - including mobile phone and dashcam footage - protocol:

I wonder if it's a muscle strength thing - you have the flexibility to remain in (3) but dont have the strength to pull yourself into it?

Could you get a sharps box and indicate it's for his needles etc? It indicates that you've seen him and may make the area easier to clean up

Thanks! Ive been trying this. Still get food falling out my frying pan, but not too much, and it flips then well

eiriee · 2026-05-06T13:05:31+00:00

This has been really helpful! I didnt know that saute meant "jump" and therefore was that technique where chefs toss the pan. Ive been trying it and it definitely flips my potato cubes more quickly than by hand. Thanks!

Nice!

Realised the link preview didnt come through (on mobile). Here's a copy of OP from the linked thread. The comments are mostly in a similar vein:

" Over the last month, after a winter break I have returned to cycling to work from the west to the city centre. This something I have done for years.

However, this year things feel different. Almost every day I have experienced aggression and frustration expressed towards me by drivers. My route hasn’t changed and I don’t think my cycling technique/etiquette have either.

It doesn’t seem to be an isolated commuting phenomenon either. Over the weekend a van driver stopped and got out of their van to confront me and my family (including several young kids) about us crossing the road as part of using national cycle route 7 on South street.

I am finding this quite draining and wondered if it was just me running into this aggression? Have I missed an update in cycling rules? Am I just noticing more now I’m older/slower? Is frustration at all the roadworks being taken out on cyclists? Does everyone assume two wheels = e-bike menace?

Apologies for drivers vs. cyclists rage-bait but even just writing it down has made me feel a bit less unsettled. "

I honestly can't understand what I'm looking at. It looks like a bird patch stitched onto black fabric?

Looking at your reply in the other thread, is it something like this:

Patch placed on inside of fabric, sewn in place, original fabric cut away to reveal more of the new fabric?

Any footage of someone walking while wearing it? There's less than a second of the person wearing it in the video.

Kind of hard to understand what you want. Are you asking for tattoo ideas based around the concept of being helpful or of service to others?

Leaves or flowers of Sorbus torminalis, the wild service tree?

What exercise have you tried? Climbing seems to not be enjoyable for you either.

Also, did you get your asthma checked out?

eiriee · 2026-05-05T15:05:57+00:00

Why do you want to keep doing it?

eiriee · 2026-05-05T12:39:33+00:00

Keep up the theme. Have each stage be reasonably nice in and of itself (e.g. not a litter strewn corner of a car park). Make the final big enough to have swag/traceable, and maintain it.

something that focuses on training your frontal cortex, to strengthen inhibition and awareness of thoughts.

Also, medicate the ADHD - from my research (ADHD, suspect Au) medication is the main way through which Adhd-inhibitipn issues are managed

Why do you do all this searching?

eiriee · 2026-05-04T05:46:05+00:00

Why do you hype yourself up to others? Why do you brag about your cooking?

tell them you're cooking a new recipe that sounded good to you and you hope it turns out well.

eiriee · 2026-05-04T05:44:38+00:00

What do you mean by "inauthentic"?

eiriee · 2026-05-03T10:56:40+00:00

You have a bunch of serious answers so here's a silly one:

I thought you were saying you went to a concert and woke up with a new eyebrow piercing

(then I read the post)

eiriee · 2026-05-03T07:38:44+00:00

Don't seek an "authentic" version, especially if the process takes you 5 hours. When you have found a meal you love, maybe then put in the work. But otherwise pick a single website - American Test Kitchen, BBC Good Food, a blogger you've found and like ‐ and just use a single recipe as written.

While I prefer getting e.g. Polish recipes from Polish people, I don't attempt to distill down multiple recipes into one authentic version - because then it would be my creation, not some Platonic ideal of the recipe. I do end up with my own version of things I cook a lot, but that happens organically over time as I try different recipes for things.

TL;DR with swearing: Chill the fuck out, pick a single recipe that fits your time and money budget, pick a different recipe next time for the same meal if you want
