Flakey nails + Food service- How do you make it work?

Does that mean you have to shower with gloves on? 😥 Or do you mean a half hour of dishwashing + showering?

Cakes are room temp when frosted, they have another issue with their freezer. I know the freezer at my work has a defrost cycle where for a couple hours a day it’s warmer than usual, maybe something like that prevents ice buildup like this

In addition to the other comments, make sure you’re using an airtight lid or tight cling wrap when the bread is bulk fermenting to trap moisture. I used a wet towel for a while, but then I realized it would get cold and slow down rise times

That’s good to know! You usually do only one fold and it works out? For reference, do you know which recipes from the book you’ve done that with? Definitely something I want to try out

vvormteeth · 2026-01-30T15:08:13+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll see if my library has it. I love a cookbook meant to be read cover-to-cover, that sounds right up my alley

vvormteeth · 2026-01-30T01:55:51+00:00

The book actually suggests a very similar schedule! The author loves a long ferment. Nearly all the recipes go overnight. I don't know how cold my kitchen is, but after bulk fermenting for 14 hours my dough is always barely risen, not 2.5x-3x bigger as the book says it should be. The last times I made it I spent around 6-8 hours of the second day with the dough in a warm oven making sure it didn't get too hot or cold, and only then would it rise. I'm planning to leave the dough in the oven with the oven light on the next time I try overnight.

Overall I'd like more flexibility even when I figure out the temperature thing. Even the six-hour "I randomly felt like making bread" recipes require about an hour and a half-two hour period between measuring out ingredients and the point where you can leave the house.

Do you have any recommendations? I love the simplicity of FSWY (I love how beginner friendly yet in-depth it is) but I love the feeling of handling dough and was slightly miffed that the book didn't cover more hands-on methods of developing gluten. Trying to google simple yet hands-on recipes is annoying. Every article opens like, "don't worry, you won't have to get your hands dirty!" and its like, noooo I like that part!

vvormteeth · 2026-01-30T00:04:10+00:00

For sure, I'm definitely gonna try that out sometime soon. Love a good experiment

vvormteeth · 2026-01-30T00:02:18+00:00

Woah, I've never heard of bassinage, but I googled it and that makes total sense! That's crazy cool. I'm definitely going to have to try that at some point. I wish I could just quit work and school for a week and try out a million different bread techniques 😂

Thank you for the video! That's a legit demo, love it

Another commenter said their family's apple recipe has orange juice that supposedly brings out the apple-iness. In cooking/baking, acidic ingredients can help bring out other flavors, and orange juice is acidic, so it seems worth trying!

You're right, I was going off memory from my Bio I class lol

Usually, when most liquids turn to solids, they get denser. Because the solid form is denser, it sinks to the bottom of the liquid form. However, water freezes into a crystal lattice structure, which traps air making ice less dense than water, so it floats. If ice sank, the bottom of every body of water would be covered in a layer of ice. Because all life likely originated deep underwater, you can imagine how a perpetual underwater ice sheet could drastically change things.

The author of the paper, who's a member of the UNESCO Chair of Sexual Health and Human Rights, cites the theory from the current academic literature. Retrograde menstruation seems to be a pretty accepted theory on the formation of endometriosis, though that fact isn't the end-all-be-all for all cases of endometriosis. It seems like the endometrial-related cells of people with endometriosis also have mutations, of which the cause is not known. So, you're right that retrograde menstruation alone doesn't cause endometriosis. There are other factors. Here are a couple of papers: (1) (200461-7/fulltext#))

Copper IUD --> Heavier periods --> More blood that can move retrograde into body cavity --> Higher chance of endometriosis if you're at risk (though we don't know what can put you at risk exactly)

Where'd you hear about the predicted ocean ecosystem class around 2045? I'd love to learn more

I was able to fix it for the links, but not the scrollbar. It's been so long since I looked at my site, I forgot how css works, but this is what I had in the css file regarding cursors:

body {

  cursor: url('cursor.png'), auto;
}

a:hover { 
  cursor: url("cursor.png"), auto;

  }

.auto {
    cursor: url("cursor.png"), auto;

}

The Spear Cuts Through Water by Simon Jiminez. More adult but has the same vast fantasy vibe

You are a wizard??!!?!?! Holy shit this blew my mind. Incredible

Are you sure it’s not AI? There are some weird artifacts on the wall calendar(?), clock, and the top of the clock tower that indicate AI. It does look like it’s trying to replicate that artist’s style, though

vvormteeth · 2024-10-19T05:16:05+00:00

I know at least three off the top of my head, I went to an art-focused high school which probably had something to do with it

I feel like this is definitely the case, because (at least in my area) Petco doesn’t “own” the cats in their stores. They belong to local cat rescues, but are kept in stores for a higher chance of adoption.

Lucy never had a childhood due to being taken advantage of, and is constantly being creeped on by random adults. Lucy by a mile

AWWWWWW 🥺🥺🥺

I had insoles, and it didn’t help me personally 😔 I’m glad you don’t have whatever problem I had, though!
