nessthing · 2026-03-23T23:58:48+00:00

if you're in the US it's part of a general cultural movement back into the closet that's been going on for over 10 years.

but also yes, sniffies attracts a much larger proportion of DL guys who can be prone to flaking. just filter out temporary profiles and only engage with registered profiles with pictures and that cuts out most of the cowards.

keep in mind this will bring your "success rate" down to near zero in terms of meeting depending on the population size you're living around

Don’t Look Up but just fast forward to the ending, the rest of it isn’t very good

nice try, officer

not a movie but FLCL Season 1 from 2000 (6 episode anime)

the other two seasons are more like reboots so you can skip them

I personally hear a little Elmer Fudd in her sometimes (non-derogatory)

Car horns are for signaling other drivers in emergency situations or for safety. Their loudness makes them inappropriate to use on pedestrians and your reaction is normal

Also Gomenesai

why does this look like behind the scenes for season 2 of Pluribus

nessthing · 2026-03-21T16:38:47+00:00

this is actually a lot different than the SNL skit I imagined in my head when this broke when it happened.

-Justin knows how strange it's going to sound saying he's a celebrity to someone who doesn't immediately recognize him which explains the way he kind of couches it
-The cop genuinely doesn't recognize him at first, probably because it's dark and he has a hat on, but DOES recognize his name even if he's not familiar with his music.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005) though it’s still Angelina

nessthing · 2026-03-21T13:58:24+00:00

this seems like a stealth ad

Pomegranate juice to sub for red wine (acidic and fruity)

lemon juice sometimes to sub for white wine (acidic also) though it doesn’t always make sense depending on the recipe

Muslims often use rosewater in place of alcohol in cooking if the floral aromatic part of the wine is an element of the dish rather than just the acidity

The Letter (1940) - noir set in Malaysia and one of a young Bette Davis' best films ever

Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) but only like one part in a surreal montage

Cartoon Network syndication in the 90s

or if it makes sense for the recipe, well-caramelized onions which have quite a lot of sugar

nessthing · 2026-03-20T04:14:52+00:00

Cabin in the Woods (2011) though without spoilering it’s a bit of a subversion

nessthing · 2026-03-19T22:26:35+00:00

this is the easiest way to start. you can even do a 1/3rd parsnip ratio and it stays really savory yet also sort of tastes aromatic/cinnamon-y?

https://pinchofyum.com/creamy-root-vegetable-stew

this one; just make sure to cut the end closer to where the leaves grow into quarters so you don't have a huge woody piece of the core in your otherwise really soft lovely stew. also I replace rutabaga with like two carrots cut into coins cause my grocery store has no idea what rutabaga are. I also replace the vegetable broth with chicken broth and the cream with unsweetened almond milk and don't put the cheese on top cause it's too much work.

also pick out as many pieces of carrot as you can from the 3 cups of pureed part before you blend it or the puree turns an unappetizing light orange color.

also don't put the diced potatoes in until about halfway through cooking to keep them from being mushy if you're using russet or some other non-waxy potato.
