archive.ph will get you around the paywall too, if that’s more your style.

NYT cooking tends to have recipes with short descriptions and very little narrative.

THANK YOU for actually doing this by weight instead of by volume. It makes it so much easier to scale. I can’t stand when fermentation books use volumetric measurements for the brine. It makes no sense.

I’ve made mushroom stroganoff before. It’s not the same as beef, but still very tasty. Just bump up the amount of mushrooms you use and throw in some meatier varieties like shiitake, oyster, chicken of the woods, lions mane, etc.

Cooking. It gives me a chance to be creative, plus I need to do it multiple times a day. Also, you get to share the fruits of your labor with friends/ family. Definitely helps that I don’t have any friends who are picky eaters.

I was thinking of it purely as a means to unwind, but you’re right. I kind of forgot about the documentary How Beer Saved the World, even if it is a bit exaggerated at times.

Appreciate it

I can do those too! Hooray, I’m valuable

Brewing beer. It might not be “essential,” but the apocalypse is gonna be bad enough, might as well have beer.

The white background cover versions are the ones I used to constantly checkout from my school library. It’s like mainlining nostalgia for me.

I used to love the Eyewitness books as a kid.

I’m a member of the SRA. I’m not saying lefty gun owners don’t exist. I’m just saying a lot of people don’t see them.

Not even close. About 3000 miles east

We definitely exist, but to the average American, a lefty gun owner is a unicorn.

Samurais (AKA Jimnys) are the shit

Guns. People assume I’m a Republican
