I still haven’t seen the last one with Napoleon Dynamite, but I have seen and enjoyed the rest. I love the camp, what can I say 😎

Can I just get a solid sequel or reboot on tremors?

Don’t get me wrong, I love the camp it descended into, but the first one was great because half of the magic is that the characters were so ordinary and mundane (instead of wisecracking graboid hunters).

Fuck it what am I even saying, slap that face hugger on el blanco and giddy up!

the government is not allowed to provide a service for free that a company can charge for

I am beyond mildly infuriated by such an idiotic stance, but it tracks with what I’ve seen.

RIP postal service you’re next.

Haha that’s me. I wasn’t at all interested in dying over and over and I only tried it to prove I was right.

But damn it’s a full spectrum experience, especially all the dirty and cheap stuff that other games are afraid to do (TWO grafted scions on the ceiling!?) makes the victories all the sweeter.

But we why know he belongs here haha.

Worf sends son away disappointed he’s not Klingon enough. Son comes back with his Klingon cranked to 11. Worf now disappointed son is not an orthodox Klingon warrior cast in his image 🤷‍♀️

Plus he’s also a super shitty brother 👌

This statement is something that I dont understand

I’ll try to help fam. The hungry deserve to eat and they have the moral high ground over the ownership class that would rather that person starve and the food they stole destroyed.

Gonna agree with you for opposite reasons. The combat in the postgame dungeon, Costlemark I think. The one where you can’t use any healing items, it was a worthy challenge.

The other postgame dungeon, the platforming one was, was way better than many final fantasy challenges like jumping rope and dodging lighting.

Special mention for the incredible soundtrack, the Matoya’s Cave remix especially.

But ya everything before the postgame, the umm main game I guess, was ridiculously short. Imagine FFIV ending when you drill into the underworld, or FFVI ending when the the world breaks, that’s what the story in FF15 feels like. As soon as you depart to the next continent you get rug pulled by a time jump that takes you to the final boss 🫠

Xbox was so great when it launched. Thanks for bringing us decent length controller cables, hard drives, and Riddick Escape from Butcher Bay 👌

Nowadays, uhh thanks for making an unnecessary media center I guess 🤷‍♀️

The mediocrity as I understand was from the rift that developed in the team about the vision of the game being a sandbox vs a campaign.

However, I witnessed a new divide among the team which was less well-known; as more core game developers (such as myself) were recruited to help finish the game, a cultural gap emerged between the newer ‘gameplay’ team and the older ‘Sim’ team. The former group (which went on to spearhead Darkspore) was primarily concerned with how Spore played as a game. Were the mechanics engaging? Did the player’s choices matter? Was the game replayable? In contrast, the ‘Sim’ team carried the traditional Maxis DNA and was more comfortable with Spore as a toy box. Could the players express themselves? Was sharing one’s creations with other players meaningful? Did the game spark the imagination?

These cultural divides ruined Spore’s chances to be a focused, cohesive experience.

It’s like double the effort, but I really like Kenji style potatoes where you parboil and toss them to build a slurry coating then roast that coating into crispy goodness.

Next time I do I want to try a Parmesan finish 😎

German must have its own share of disappointing terms.

Pferd comes to mind as an example. I really expected something more metal like horzdraken or comical like hoofenstreider. But no, just a boring Roman loan word.

Gah what a fucking tool.

Well at least he isn’t getting paid when I rewatch Ace Ventura 2 on plex 😎

This looks really really good, crusty on the outside and soft on the inside.

Reminds me of those thin rustic slices with big sugar that you see at fancy brunch joints.

Not sure what they’re called but this is the best picture I could find.

This is how I know how to make it, however the Latin market now sells tomato sauce packets that are about 200 grams and I plan to adjust the recipe to use them and skip all the freezing/thawing of the extra tomato sauce.

1 cup rice

1 drizzle of oil

half can of tomato sauce (these cans are 14.5 ounces)

2 1/2 cups chicken broth

1/2 medium onion, minced

1-2 garlic cloves, minced

1 boneless chicken thigh, cut up or cubed

3/4 tsp salt, sprinkle of white pepper

1. Pour the oil into a medium sauce pan over medium low heat.
2. Once oil warms, add rice and stir to get rice coated in oil.
3. Once a few grains begin to brown, add the onion and stir to get the onion coated.
4. Once a few onions begin to sweat, add the garlic and chicken and stir to get everything coated, then increase heat to medium
5. Stir regularly until you can’t see raw chicken; ideally everything is glistening with some light browning.
6. Add the tomato sauce and stir until coated Use the chicken broth to rinse tomato sauce out of the can
7. Pour the broth and tomato sauce mixture into the pan and bring to a boil (increase to medium-high or just wait)
8. Add the salt and pepper now.
9. Once at a low boil, put a lid on it and move it to a back burner on lowest heat for 25 minutes.

I made it 🙂

Use soft butter put 1-2 tbsp of it into a small bowl, depending on how big your bread is etc.

From an old jar of dried thyme leaves I’m trying to use up, I sprinkle some into my hand and rub it together until it gives a smell again. Tastes way better with fresh if you have it.

Incrementally add enough rubbed thyme into the butter and stir it until it looks good. Then stir in some Parmesan cheese, but not so much that it stiffens up (I just add more butter when that happens).

Chili looks really good. I can see the little bits of onion and tomato glistening in the sauce 🤤

it hasn’t been totally frustrating and time-consuming, so far

If you like the taste I encourage you to try a batch using a tortilla press with smaller pieces of parchment. Should give you the same effect, but faster and without large unwieldy sheets. It’s what I do when I make corn tortillas, it’s way faster than mastering the hydration and finesse required for making them by hand. Plus you can prep an entire stack layered between parchments and then cook them all in one go.

As for me, having to wash that pan every time isn’t sustainable. I’m just too lazy haha.
