If you want fancy fusion Chinese in Toronto, skip R&D and Mimi (my ancestors shake their fist at the latter), and treat yourself to the tasting menu at DaiLo. You won't regret it.

Aaaand I just burned off several layers of flesh on the roof of my mouf. Potatoes are hot.

I forgot in the US in 2025, you have to be like, 30 in order to sit in the front seat of an automobile. I think I was 5 when I first sat in a Ferrari for a drive (in the front seat, with a seatbelt). That would have been in the mid 70s, in England. https://youtu.be/-nW43AIMFow?t=1052

Food Network is basically entertainment for people who think they’re too good for professional wrestling.

Cephalopods, man. Cephalopods.

Cute little sticker from my semi-local indie record shop, Johnny’s Records in Darien, CT.

Oh no! Apple pie!

The worst thing here is we almost certainly lack functioning mechanisms to hold anyone meaningfully to account for these crimes. These were not heat-of-battle excesses or unwise orders from mid-level officers. This was premeditated, national policy crafted and approved by the Secretary of […]

The Slongebob movie is subtitled ‘the search for squarepants’ So… he’s just not wearing trousers the whole film?!?

Commanders specifically ordered Navy SEALs to fire on and kill two survivors of (alleged) drug boat sinking in September. "The order was to kill everybody". Analyzing this as an unlawful order or as homicide or as a war crime is, of course, necessary, but at the same time it seems morally […]

100% best analogy to expose how absurd the US system is. #ushealthcare

Pro app consumer tip: An annual subscription is effectively a lifetime subscription, & without monthly nags/reminders. If you don’t use it enough to feel worth renewing next year, don’t. Renewing is generally equivalent to version upgrades of yesteryear.

You can freak if you want to.

The prince 7” ATWIAD box was hella expensive, amd I blew my budget, but I have a lot of great music.

Black Friday? No… BRAK FRIDAY!

Good to see my RSD friends out here in the barely above freezing and heckin’ wimdy weather.

Sometimes you need to boil your tea water with 6KW of power… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INZybkX8tLI

Heckin’ wimdy.

play the grindr notification noise at Christmas dinner to see which conservative relatives panickedly check their phone ringer

When I am not watching All Creatures Great and Small, I think about how lovely, and fun, and funny it is. When I watch it, I am suddenly confronted with how intensely hard-hitting it is. Its ability to jam its hand right through your ribcage and rip out your heart is astonishing.

You *need* Reveal. Simple as that. https://indieapps.space/@reveal/115623924043984270

We secretly replaced their pumpkin spice with Old Bay. Let’s see if they notice.

Leo XIV, the American pope, on Thanksgiving Day, is in Turkey.

“Stevie loves a back-door G5” I mean, whomst among us…

Thanksgiving delivered. Much delight and surprise from the new folk.

Potatoes done Cranberries done Gravy done Apple Pies done Stuffing baking Brussels roasting (they will need hob time after for the gochujang glaze) Thanksgiving 2025 is nearing the finish line. The folks who are back this year at the Starbucks thanked me again for last year. They were super […]

Called it: Trump is going to *give* China Taiwan (no, Taiwan is not his to give) in an attempt to reverse the damage of his stupid trade war.

OMG so much roasting. I am glad I only do this once a year.

This is how you do it people. I feel like I could have written this article, as it is extremely detailed as to all of the valid reasons why they would want to ban such content from being associated with Nature. Every journalistic & creative outlet you follow should be publishing something like […]

She can win! Vote, #Tennessee!

Roast all the things day!

Here’s your morning Stevie: Too High, opening his amazing album Innervisions. Psychedelic Soul https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8dK0iEzi1M #steviewonder #realmusicbyrealmusicians

Well, I didn’t need a future country anyway. https://mastodon.cloud/@slashdot/115616172207950078

Making a roux.

Cranberry sauce in the making. Cranberries Water Sugar Brown sugar Cinnamon Nutmeg Orange zest Orange juice Ginger Salt Basically just boil it down and cool.

Also, one of the National Park "free days" (now for citizens only) is Trump's birthday (also Flag Day, but now re-branded).

Here's the @maddow.bsky.social vid I referenced earlier. Radley is spot on, as, of course, is Rachel.

We used to be a society. https://tech.intersects.art/@roadside/115610129357996848

Why Thanksgiving when Supper Bowl is right there.

“Jane Says” on the sound system at Whole Foods. I don’t know how I feel about that.

So, lemme understand. Is it the content that matters, or is it all about cool visual effects we can do? Because making important information blurry as fuck doesn’t seem to be ‘content first’.

I have never been to a hotel that didn't have a bathroom door, but holy shit, this is bonkers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFPGUTyo9Yk

hey don't be so hard on yourselves; it delivered oceans of sensitive government and citizen data to billionaires

Siri is still dumber than a box of rocks.

Who is cutting onions in here??? 🥲 https://mastodon.social/@threkk/115607192913743010

Huh. Starting to think maybe Ive just wasn’t all that great a designer and leaned heavily on Jobs and his own subordinates, and because the media love a hero story hyped his ass waaaaaaaaaay too much.

Gorgonzola mashed potatoes experiment is a success! Only 80,000 calories per teaspoon. Not quite Robuchon style (I lile a bit of texture), but huge amounts of salt, pepper, butter, heavy cream, and gorgonzola cheese. The secret is to bake not boil them, to […] [Original post on mastodon.online]
