      Sorry, you are BOTH interesting AND cool. All that’s required for that is for people to find you so, and we do. HA HA.

      More seriously, we’ve all fucked up. Well, almost all of us. Some of us in bigger ways than others. I hope you can forgive yourself sooner, rather than later.

      did you hear that

      I AM COOL AND INTERESTING.

        My landlord just texted me to let me know I owe them a few hundred bucks in late fees that have been accumulating since November 2020 that they just hadn’t thought to mention before today. I must be driving past a farm, because I’m getting a whiff of the old bullshit.

            So. At my job – I hit my mental health oh they can only be a workhorse for so long limit. However, as I’m also a patient goblin, I also play one mean long-game that appears to be playing out in my favor. Otherwise, I was going to quit by singing during a zoom call. I really and truly was. I’ve made myself desperately needed by my job in a way that will allow me to keep my benefits but take time to breathe and it feels good.

            Edit: OR - or I can coddle an interview and get a whole new job.

            they | them

              Nextdoor is by far my LEAST favorite social media platform. That said, I do keep up with it because every once in a while I get something useful from it.

              Even when some absolute sewer shit of a person posts “Anyone want a cat? I might have to give mine up.”

              Don’t worry, I’m not jumping to judgement. Someone else asked, “What happened?” and this person replied, “I have a friend who has severe allergies who comes to visit once in a while.”

              A) Screw you, that was your cat’s place first.
              B) I did immediately send your name to the person in charge of our shelter and you are banned from ever adopting us.

              Kudos on you for not having done it, but SHAME SHAME SHAME for even CONSIDERING IT for that reason.

                Today I found out about the existence of onion rings “breaded” in hamburger and wrapped so completely in bacon that no beef shows through. Fuck off with that.

                    @bear_necessities The only thing worse than not getting to eat that for health reasons is other people being healthy enough to eat them.

                    Also every child should be crippled with unpayable student loan debt because I was and I want everyone to suffer as much as me.

                        @bear_necessities Nothing to be sorry for. I do find it gross, but I’d still eat at least one.

                          Just to be sure they’re as gross as you think they are? And then maybe a second to confirm your initial assessment. But it takes 3 results to really prove something.

                            @TNP I mean, obviously. Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a pattern.

                              This reminds me of my husband and kids finding the Twisted (@JungleTwisted, I guess) Facebook page with its ridiculous recipes, and I’ve not been able to keep myself from preparing several with just that thought in mind.

                              I don’t remember all of them, but the first one I made was a grilled cheese sandwich with bacon and breaded cheese sticks inside, along with like three cheeses and parmesan-crusted buttered bread outsides. I don’t know, there were probably breaded onion rings in there, too.

                              Now I want another one.

                                @eye8urcake My go-to for “that sounds wretched, I think I’ll make one” is a grilled cheese sandwich with mozzarella cheese, white chocolate, and raspberry jam.

                                        This isn’t a true peeve since I think it’s really funny.
                                        A friend of mine from my early vampire WoD mush days pinged me to tell me she heard a diaper subscription service ad for a company called Coterie and momentarily had to think for a moment as to whether that was the adult kind or the kid kind. So very old.

                                          Dunno what I did wrong, but the spaghetti sauce is sour. Maybe it’s from not using sausage grease as the base.

                                            @GF A good spaghetti sauce doesn’t /need/ sausage, but when my dishes go wrong the first culprits I usually shakedown are salt and fat, whether too much or not enough. These form the basis for a lot of how flavors are brought out in food. If it isn’t those, I start eyeballing how hot and for how long I’ve cooked it.

                                            I would recommend separating a small portion into a cup and blending in a little baking soda to see if it can neutralize some of the sourness, if that doesn’t work, sometimes just a touch of sweetness can do the same thing if the sodium content is already where it needs to be.
