I've been playing with this Garnish technique I saw on Chinese cooking videos where you cut a 3 inch section of green onion, flatten it with your knife, then cut it along the short edge to form long strands of green onion. A few of those delicately placed atop a dish, especially one lacking green, really makes it pop

You're so right that it's satisfying to dice green onion and get that beautiful gradient.

Have you tried mincing meat by hand? I get incredible satisfaction wielding two cleavers and going to town on some chicken. It's amazing how quickly it turns from chunks to a fine paste. Plus the sound is astounding. My roommates legit gather because it makes such a ruckus and apparently I get a huge smile on my face whenever I do it.

Mine still tasted great, for what it's worth! Chopped em up into noodle soup in the morning, sliced some into some quick pickles or blended em into sauces.

I had similar results with my potted thai chilis. I got picture perfect results when I had them in the ground, so I figure they just need more soil.

This game looks interesting. After playing the demo, I think they got something really solid on their hands if they can figure out how to keep the procedurally generated events and alternative storylines interesting

The trick is standing in juuuuuust the right place so the water is flowing down both your backs but you ain't getting waterboarded when you're going down on them.

It's an art, really.

Doesn't look like it solves the main issues with showers, tricky for different height partners to fuck in

This is the primary barrier to technological and social progress. We all know shower sex is hotter than bedroom sex, despite the difficulties involved. Any device hoping to pioneer the future of hygiene must resolve this crucial issue humanity faces.

Someone who has actually had an American experience. Someone who's been homeless, who's worked more than one job just to barely make rent. Someone who's viewed home ownership as a pipe dream. Someone who's waited tables. Someone that's done drugs just for an escape. Someone who's lost friends and family to those same drugs. Someone who's had a total stranger express hate for them just for being outside the in-power group.

No more of these disconnected rich pricks who don't really know how the average person lives.

Would you mind submitting it with comment so I can understand the grievance?
