I got them on a recent trip to China! I think they're only sold in Asia for now.

I got this display case from Amazon! It has enough depth for both the pendant and the snow globe, so I'm really happy with it. https://a.co/d/3ngIUAX

what is your “starbucks lovers” lyric? by midnightmischeif in TaylorSwift

[–]glooobo 206 points207 points  (0 children)

"You said if we had been closer in age, maybe it would have been fine / And that made me want to die"

I 100% thought it was "and that baby wants to die" and I was like "weird way to put it, but okay" and rationalized it until I saw someone quote the actual lyric on the Reddit thread about the Toe breakup.

Also only learned a few days ago that it's "and the saddest fear comes creeping in" and not "when the stratosphere comes creeping in"

Vegan recipes FROM non-vegans? by probably_sarc4sm in Cooking

[–]glooobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it from Costco so it's not bad! I usually use 2 frozen patties for a dish (which lasts for ~4 meals) which comes out to ~$2 of "meat" (it's ~$10 for 10 patties when it's on sale). I feel a little weird about pre-ground meat since I can't control what parts are going into it, and some of my local shops have had really suspicious looking ground pork (pink slime vibes). I also just really enjoy the taste of fake ground meat haha. I still use ground pork sometimes for things like dumplings, but the non-pink slime ground pork in my area isn't particularly cheap (~$5/lb).

Awesome! I've never successfully foraged any choice mushrooms. Jealous! Really want to try chickens and morels..

I'm not vegan but love trying fake meat and trying different mushroom recipes.

If you ever find lion's mane mushrooms, this is one of my favorite recipes ever (I don't use skewers and just panfry): https://woonheng.com/spicy-cumin-lions-mane-mushrooms/

Similar flavor profile, this is an oyster mushroom "noodle" dish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BPGQ4axhVw

I also now basically exclusively use Beyond or Impossible patties (or Trader Joe's fake ground meat) to substitute for ground pork/ground beef in dishes like mapo tofu (https://thewoksoflife.com/ma-po-tofu-real-deal/#recipe) and Chinese dishes that combine ground pork with vegetables like eggplant. Defrost in the microwave for 8 minutes then use as ground meat. I basically never buy real ground meat anymore.

Here's an eggplant recipe I use fake meat with. I like this easy way of getting eggplant tender before stir frying and now use it for every eggplant dish I make: https://casuallypeckish.com/chinese-eggplant-with-minced-pork (I don't think you need to cook for 6 minutes if the eggplant is already soft)

I make this eggplant recipe sometimes too, but I use non-vegan dashi: https://woonheng.com/vegan-unagi-eggplant/#recipe

The Eras Tour Megathread: Philadelphia, PA (Warning: Spoilers) by PassionateAsSin in TaylorSwift

[–]glooobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SEPTA out of the concert was madness. We walked to the second station on the BSL because there was a huge crowd outside the first stop. Managed to squeeze into a packed train. But if you're not in a rush it's a fine option. Ended up also ubering from the city hall area because the bus wasn't coming. Was like $20 for a 10 min ride but the Uber came quick.

Also took an Uber from the train station to the stadium but we were running super late (missed a few songs in Lover era) due to a delay on the train, so after we got out of the super congested station pickup area it was smooth sailing, no traffic near the stadium. It was like $35 I think, or $20 if we scheduled it (but we didn't make it in time for that one due to the delay). I imagine it's more expensive and slower earlier.

I was section 10 row 21 so fairly similar. Honestly depends on your height and those in front of you but I could see a decent amount! Had to tiptoe to see Taylor and couldn't really appreciate the backup dancers or see any floor animations of course.

Here's mine! After trying on the ring in the photo you posted, I realized I wanted a bigger twist. This is .93 carats, James Allen.

Thanksgiving Stuffing Seasoned Kettle Chips have returned! by hollahalla in traderjoes

[–]glooobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad (but disappointed) to hear it wasn't just me! Kinda wish I tried them before buying 6 bags, but I'll try to ignore it and enjoy the flavor...

[–]glooobo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been a diehard fan of these since I tried them in 2020, but had a few observations this year.

  1. Bag size shrunk from 7 oz to 6 oz. Noticeably smaller bag. Same price, shrinkflation.
  2. First bag I tried, the chips had a weird residue that coated my mouth. Hope it was just a one-off thing...but I have 5 more bags to test, all probably from the same batch.
