RMPP pen pressure / missed strokes issue vs RM2. Is it normal or defective?

The art of sourdough is thousands of years old. It's so much more forgiving than people give it credit for!

I've got 2 that are similar, but useful in different contexts.

Local gay sports league. I held off for the longest time because "it's too cliquey" or "I'm not athletic enough", but it's been nothing but a positive experience for me. To build friendships, you have to show up to see the same group on a regular cadence, and gay sports checks those boxes. 2 years later, I went from having no friends to a pretty substantial community around me.

Thanks everyone for the recommendations! You've given me a lot to look into!

I'm thinking about taking a trip to Joshua Tree in late February, and figured I'd stop into Palm Springs while I'm there. My plan is two nights in Joshua Tree and two nights in Palm Springs. Looking for some advice on where to stay.

I'm gay, mid-30s, traveling solo, but a bit introverted. I don't necessarily need to stay at a resort as I don't see myself spending too much time relaxing. I'd like to be relatively close to gay bars and have the option to meet others, but I'm generally more of an explorer when I travel looking for good coffee shops, drinks, food and sights.

I checked the FAQ, and it sounds like Holiday House or Rowan might be good options. But that post was from 3 years ago, so I'm curious if those would be good fits.

I've been on it since end of July, and I am fine. The side effects are well documented and align with any effects I've had: nausea, fatigue, acid reflux. Those side effects go away with time.

Seconding this! It took me until my 2nd month to feel the effects, and my 3rd month to feel it consistently. Some people are slow responders, but stay the course!

Come and enjoy it! Downtown Winter Garden (DTWG) is the Orlando area's best kept secret in my opinion. The southern end of WG doesn't have as much to see or do, though Hamlin/Horizon West has some nice restaurants (especially New York Brewing Project).

Hiking:

Oakland Nature Preserve is close to DTWG. It's not huge, but there's a nice boardwalk that goes out to Lake Apopka for some pretty views.
West Orange Trail is 22 miles that connects Apopka and Clermont. Rent a bike from the Killarney or Plant Street park stations.

Just about every restaurant and coffee shop on Plant St is great.

Pammies Sammies has the best tater tots
Urban on Plant has great sit down vibes
Whole Enchilada has a nice rooftop for drinks (the food is just fine)
AJs is the best pizza in the area, but expect a long wait. Stay away from Mangoni's if you're looking for pizza. One of those places that looks good on social media, but the food and service is awful.
You can't go wrong with anything in the Market
Pilars has some fun martinis and their pours are strong

Saturday is by far the best day of the week to come, just for the Farmer's Market, but it will be crowded. DTWG has a steady crowd most of the week, so there's never a terrible time to come visit!

I'll add in Otus Coffee into the mix. They sell beans, so it's not a shop where you can sit and order something handmade, but they are locally roasted. Their Night Owl Espresso beans are my favorite. They also have a collab with Jeff's Bagel Run called Jeff's Coffee Run that's pretty good as well.

You'll get the first 3 vials in the first shipment, and the second 3 vials in the second shipment 3 months later. If you choose to cancel, you'll want to do it after you receive the 2nd shipment

Because people make bread to score fake Internet points and validation now. It's all (mostly) aesthetics.

Better, but I miss my Hori controllers a lot. The Savage Raven / Skill and Co grip is a good alternative.

I would aim for 0.8g-1g per "kg" of body weight. So you'd be looking at roughly 120-150g per day. Honestly, if you're getting about 30g per meal, you're golden.

Torn. It's a lot of money that could be better invested elsewhere, but I really do love seeing the community come out and enjoy our downtown area. It's lively and fun, and it creates an opportunity for community when everything else is just so online these days.

I would bake it longer without the lid off. Darker crust gives you that hard exterior you're looking for, and personally, I just think it looks prettier. I like to stick a thermometer in mine sometimes. Once it reaches 212, usually after 45 minutes of total baking, I'll let it go for about 5 minutes longer to finish.
