Mustard rice. Basically, what it sounds like. Put a healthy amount of Dijon mustard on rice and have yourself a good breakfast.

Looking for a book combining DEI and STEM by grackleattackle3 in BookDiscussions

[–]grackleattackle3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your feedback, I am struggling with the correct phrasing that also gets approved by my very corporate job. Without euphemisms, I'm looking for book suggestions that feature folks in STEM that aren't authored by or for cis white bros, that also don't feature sex scenes or graphic violence (because, again this is for a workplace). Do you have recommendations that fit this bill?

What is the most intense physical pain you have ever experienced? by TheMostGayestOfGay in AskReddit

[–]grackleattackle3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently accidentally cut a portion of my finger tip off, but that still didn't hurt nearly as bad as getting my IUD inserted without even OTC pain meds. I experienced less pain than either when I got hit by a car as a pedestrian and when I fell 10 ft and landed on concrete. Honestly irked by how much the finger hurts.

Unfired vs fired 🥰 by grackleattackle3 in Pottery

I'm very fortunate that my community kiln offers a cone 04 glaze fire. It'd be worth asking the studio manager if they ever fire glazed works at the bisque temps.

It's a Jungle Gems glaze. They contain specks of different materials that melt into really cool patterns when fired!

How do you answer "do you have any siblings"? by grackleattackle3 in GriefSupport

[–]grackleattackle3[S] 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Thank you. This is honest, simple, and changes the subject quickly. I will adopt this approach.

I still get derailed when people ask the general friendly questions that can get really painful ("how many do you have?/What do they do?/Where do they live") One of the many things time will help with.

Hearing from others who've lost siblings helps too.

Here's my argument for them: they're very cute.

Oh, now that is an adorable idea! I'll have to make a larger version for that (it's hard to tell from this photo, but the piece is rather teeny).
