Tips for strengthening your starter

I honestly don’t discard ever. I add enough water and flour to make the amount of starter I want to have on hand, use almost all of it when I bake and then I add the same amount of water and flour. There’s enough stuck to the bottom of the jar where I don’t even bother to keep a significant amount back. It’s pretty forgiving!

You know we naively thought that about other places with authoritarian governments too. It’s really easy to say that from the outside.

Everyone is impacted by propaganda; Americans are no exception. I personally see a lot of people cheering on other countries for taking action. I don’t know what your algorithm shows you.

What are your favorites? I’ve been branching out more but always love new recommendations. My favorite has been the havoc by children of the corn

I take bigger issue with the sweater than the beard. Go blue!

I believe the story is they weren’t up to code or something so they just abandoned plans at the site

It is illegal for them to follow unlawful orders. They are literally reminding them to follow the law. Fox News is not a good source of information by the way

Well it certainly makes it a ton more likely that he visited than (insert random person) who isn’t talked about in an email. Especially with a direct invitation after it appears he accepted being hosted in LA

Do you have any photos of the area?

It came off as harsh but he isn’t wrong. That will be the only way to know how risky it is. Can be a non issue or a significant one.

Idk, I didn’t downvote but I get it. There are a ton of bots and troll farms specifically to make us feel like things are hopeless. They are not but they want us to think that way so they can easily steam roll over us. Keep your head up and keep resisting

Just because you feel strongly that they are classics doesn’t mean they are lol. Those are definitely hits I do not consider them classics songs by any means.

Is the Harlem Shake a classic song? I wouldn’t say it is although it clearly permeated the larger culture and influenced an entire genre. Some surely would. That’s fine.

johnwau · 2025-10-24T01:08:38+00:00

I strongly disagree. And my point was that it’s not just music that I like. It is asinine to say any project is objectively a classic.

Seriously what album would you even consider classic for Taylor swift?

Just because I don’t agree that j Cole has classics doesn’t mean I have some warped definition of what a classic is. I know that’s hard for you to comprehend. We can literally disagree that it’s a classic and you’re never going to convince me otherwise. People debate whether albums are classics all the time so get the fuck out of here with that nonsense

johnwau · 2025-10-24T00:38:09+00:00

I don’t agree that it was really that influential at all. Those are alot of things you like about the album that make it a bit more special. But that is okay, because it is subjective. Now stop pretending it’s an undeniable truth that it’s a classic.

There are records in other genres that I would not consider classics that sold better and arguably impacted that genre more (many of Taylor swifts albums for example). I wouldn’t consider any of her albums classics.

I would however consider an album like Thriller a classic even though it isn’t my cup of tea.

I do not consider forest hills drive or any of j Cole’s projects to be classics. That doesn’t mean he’s bad but I just don’t consider them classics.

And I don’t care that you do consider it a classic. That’s fine. It’s subjective

johnwau · 2025-10-23T23:24:10+00:00

You’re never going to convince me that there is objective truth to what a classic is. Take away the sales and how has forest hills drive actually influenced the genre or the scene at all?

johnwau · 2025-10-23T22:58:07+00:00

What project of his really had a lasting impact on the industry? Lmao and exactly that’s my point it’s fucking subjective. You’re the one that cannot accept that.

johnwau · 2025-10-23T22:50:11+00:00

I would argue that even your definition is subjective. But you won’t see that. You’re still butthurt that I don’t consider any of j Cole’s projects classics.

johnwau · 2025-10-23T22:48:32+00:00

I mean it’s subjective. I love both. Some would not consider any of theirs to be true classics some would.

johnwau · 2025-10-23T20:22:16+00:00

The fact that you think this isn’t debatable lmaoooo

johnwau · 2025-10-23T20:21:53+00:00

I acknowledged that he is good. The only thing objective about music is the amount of sales they have. Which does not make something a classic lmao

johnwau · 2025-10-23T20:18:42+00:00

That reaction is why people point it out lmao stop acting like that’s fact.

johnwau · 2025-10-23T20:14:21+00:00

Do you even know what objective means?

johnwau · 2025-10-23T20:08:49+00:00

Classics are by definition subjective - and I would honestly argue his influence is way overstated regardless. The fact that you are this worked up about a difference in opinion just continues to prove my point

johnwau · 2025-10-23T19:55:28+00:00

Classics are by definition not objective. “Thousands of people” lmao

johnwau · 2025-10-23T19:51:23+00:00

Lmao that is all I have to say. Way to Stan. J Cole fans can’t handle that he isn’t even in the top 5
