So here is the creepy part. THE YEAST COLLECTED AT XBOX HQ MAKES XBOX LOGO BREAD. I have no idea how this happened. It’s a miracle and so creepy. Ancient aliens and shit. Ok good night. Try some baking. Play some games. I love you, I’ve got your back. 👊💚

whomst among us could not benefit by having more gremlins and goblins in our lives.

Just can't believe it is only wednesday

just in terms of sheer mind boggling grit and talent, it is hard to come up with something better than placing 3d in the Marathon des Sables over 150+ miles in six days and then running the Boston Marathon and qualifying for the US Olympic Trials a week later; Des Linden is the GOAT.

Another great piece by @anildash.com here -- 100 percent agree, when we do our best work in communicating is when others can carry the message forward.

my view is a constant search to find my peeps. I was on bulletin boards, fidonet, usenet, AOL, and so on -- it's not about giving up on social media, it's about trying to stay one step ahead of the algo.

I've been working on my "non-fussy" bread, as in it is 11 a.m. and I want some bread. :) This is a yeasted sourdough, 10 percent rye, 40 percent wheat, rest white flour. 1 cup of discard, 2 t of yeast, 2 cups water, 1T salt. 90 minute first rise, 45 minute free form second rise. No stress yums.

Was out on a long-ish for me bike ride in the glorious sun today and started to bonk; stopped for coffee and a pastry at Blue Ridge Coffee House (yum) and got a quick selfie with this bad bunny. Smiled all the way home.

baking as therapy.

ran out of cranberry beans so am being forced to use navy beans, only because I couldn't find the Marine Corps beans at the store.

DAY 1 of induction range: ooh, don't want to scratch the surface with my cast iron, i'll use this mat designed for that. Day 2 seems like it works! Day 3 sear salmon. Spouse: I smell plastic burning. Me: can't be. Me: cleaning up after dinner staring at badly melted mat....ugh.

never seen wordlebot whiff like this.

Still standing. Did not totally botch the leak soup thing. Appreciative this thread is here and not on Instagram which could have been bad.

i do not often cook with leeks, reflections. 1. Leeks are very dirty little veggies and they hide the dirt well, even when you think they are clean you will start slicing and discover they are not. 2. Thinly slicing leeks makes for a lot of leeks, much more than expected, i hope they cook down?

Today I learned that if you leave a GU packet in your cycling jersey and then run it through the wash, the packaging will not rupture and destroy the washer and force you to disclose your mistake to your spouse. Thank you GU packaging team.

"we dream. we love. we jump. and sometimes we fall. sometimes our hearts are broken....I tried. I dreamt. I jumped." what a great message from a phenomenal athlete/human being.

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.

ngl, this looks like pretty good advice (my mom just gave me her original better homes and garden cookbook from i dunno 65 years ago). If you find me laying on the floor of my office you now know why.

by far the best ad came via Marshawn, not even close.

This is the way.

am i the only blue sky elder who now wonders if Alf would have crushed the ski jump. World record hog for sure.

The incredibly inspiring response on the ground in Minneapolis is reminding me of John Berger's magnificent long-ago manifesto for the avenging heroes among us www.themarginalian.org/2024/11/19/j...

For Liam.

I dunno, if I had a house 'law' that no snacks were allowed in rooms and my kid had snacks in their room and they said I need money to go to a school dance so I promise to not have snacks in my room, would i let them go?

This is lovely.

Ugh

It's a sourdough bagel kind of morning

My mom was born in St. Paul. So i get it. Go get 'em Minnesota.

For the last few months I've watched a bunch of Microsoft engineers explore what they could do with this CLI, to include building an MCP server to connect to WorkIQ, and then having a bit of fun. youtu.be/q8wGUe3L3hs is one example from @scott.hanselman.com developer.microsoft.com/blog/bringin...

have had some fun playing with this github.blog/news-insight...

19 quarts

First seven

Every time I get ready to can soup stock I remember the time I ran out of Bell lids and panic buy more lids. I will can 20 or so quarts tomorrow, I think I will be OK. 😂

Just having a spot of tea.

It was a Monday, but at least it ended with me laughing like a hyena at all the great Aaron Rodgers jokes on Bluesky tonight, 10/10, no notes, you people are great.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

going from watching the niners/eagles to the golden globes is a bit of whiplash tbh

i have emerged victorious following a massive home networking battle where I had to defeat both a synology router, a TPLink Switch and most importantly Centurylink DNS.
