“…and can you explain your ‘drive Republicans into the fucking sea’ campaign?”

“Why, yes, I’m glad you asked! You see, it’s based around the primary importance of the fact that we need to drive Republicans into the fucking sea”

"what's your pedagogical style?"

me:

A canvas learning management system discussion post has the instructions "Post your questions on this week's course assignments to discuss with everyone. Or email them to me. Or don't. I'm not your boss."

"They weren't always like this"

25 years ago, Republicans were joking about killing gay people, torturing Muslims and Arabs, and deporting Latinos, only obviously that wasn't what they called them

You want to tell me that the folks buying Liberal Hunting Permits at gun shows weren't like this?

For this week’s cooking adventure: l’m making rice and gravy. It’s not one of the southern recipes my mom ever made

The triple deglazing is very neat, if time consuming

Step 1. Prepare rice according to package directions (I briefly cook some garlic paste in butter before adding the rice and salt, cooking that a bit, and finally the water)

Step 2. Liberally season bite-size pieces of cheap stewing beef with salt, pepper, and Cajun spice

Step 3. Add a little oil to a cast iron pan and cook to brown the meat. We want to fully cook it, render out the juices, and then reduce those to nothing. Then you add 1/3rd of cup of water to deglaze the pan, cook that until evaporated, then add 1/3rd c of water and cook away, then add a final 1/3 c water and cook away again. The meat and juices should become darker and more flavorful each time, we’re building “gradoux,” the base of the sauce, and the darker it is the more flavorful each the dish will have

Step 4 (while or before the meat browns). Prep veggies. 2 medium yellow onions, 1 large green bell pepper, an entire bulb of garlic, 2 bunches of scallions. Mince them all so they cook and dissolve into gravy, faster

Step 5. Add the minced onions and cook until softened and browned, then add the minced garlic and cook a few minutes until it smells sweet, not sharp. Then cook in the bell pepper for a few minutes.

Step 6. Add enough water to cover the meat, bring to a boil, reduce to medium, and simmer until the meat is tender, veggies fall apart, and the gravy is thick

The audition requirements ask that you prepare “30 seconds of badassery (dance, martial arts, etc.)

Me:

Mister Fantasdick @geekyjp.bsky.social · 3d

This morning’s questions:

• do I audition for As You Like It?

• should I just mark I want Jaques or Touchstone only?

• how gauche, exactly, is it to audition with a soliloquy from the play (“All the world’s a stage…”)

Silver lining of nobody local being on here, I can gossip with y’all. Some details…

Angel: new arrival from the Deep South. Has many tats, the cutest little accent, and says he’ll cook for me

Gladiator: history/philosophy teacher with a perfect body

Spider-Man: a fave. So sweet, incredible ass

Mister Fantasdick @geekyjp.bsky.social · 3d

TBH: costumes were slutty, but was cock-blocked by friends. But it was still a good time 😅

But the angel, the gladiator, and the Spider-Man are gonna be pursued, separately
