Mac & cheese is AMAZING w/truffle (anything).

Second the eggs, but also, egg salad is *super* tasty with truffle bits.

If one has a way to grind them up, then it’s good as a sprinkle on popcorn, crisps, potato or veg.

(I love “lowbrow” truffle mashups, & especially white truffle anything!)

So stressful! This was supposed to be a quiet week, but it’s been a LOT of literal & figurative headaches.

subgirl @inkygeek.com · 1d

You too!

It’s been a very universally exhausting time, I think.

BTW Curling has started.

I was feeling a little sad after the BBC Sumo thing was over & next basho is Nov. Canada to the rescue!

Despite the triggeringly bad “cold” the announcer has, Curling Canada on YouTube is live streaming Pre-Trials all week & I fucking love it.

I managed to get into the lab & blood drawn in under 15 mins before @buttplug.engineer had to take the car for an appointment, so I didn’t have to get a Lyft home.

Haemo appt took several months to get in, so I totally forgot about the labs requirement.

I am still up on ~4 hours of sleep. Ug.

I had a serious sudden-awake panic attack at 3:30am. I had completely forgotten to get blood-work done for new Haematologist appt on Monday. It’s usually ordered for a week before. I made a a lab appt online & since then the whole day has been jam-packed idiocy & frustration.

I’m *tired*.

I LOVE Tones on Tail.

I’m the ridiculous weirdo who put Slender Fungus on almost every mix tape & CD I made between 1996-2005.

I still need to see them (they don’t really tour, but did a festival in LA last year. IIRC Kevin Haskin’s daughter is in now.)

www.brooklynvegan.com/watch-bauhau...

Watch Bauhaus offshoot Tones on Tail play their first show in 40 years at Cruel World 2024 (full video, setlist)

Daniel Ash and Kevin Haskins, plus Haskins' daughter Diva Dompe on bass, played as Tones on Tail for the first time since 1984 at Saturday's Cruel World festival...

I’d love to see a study on how nurses & docs in chemo & infusion clinics (for example) now refuse to wear respirators/masks around their most vulnerable patients & how the lack of basic PPE mandates for HCPs affects outcomes.

Wish we didn’t need these studies, but good to know vaccination helps!

I need to check it out again. I had a couple levels that were just consistently un-beatable unless I had VERY overpowered power-ups. Only have ever gotten a second goblin in … many, many hours of play.

Hoping they re-weighted things or updated it.

As it is, poop photos are banned on all the (appropriately moderated) Crohn’s/IBD forums, can’t imagine the tech support/learning models for this - someone has to soft through literal shitloads of images to train any automated models for these things.

I am on the ostomy subreddit (I have one myself) & someone posted asking about the usefulness of something like this for ostomates (but then was hostile when people pushed back on the obvious privacy issues). 1/2

I would have bought it without knowing, too! It’s so pretty!

Such a novel bit of engineering, I really dislike clips (ambivalent on roll stops - depends on the implementation), so the ability to choose nub or no-nub is super ingenious! Best of both worlds! And it looks cool!

This was my thought too, but so disgusted with the language I can’t really form a coherent comment on it.

It’s PINK! Very cool! I saw the roll stop on IG and it’s brilliant!

How did I miss that?! Anyway, hi!

Posting a picture covered in text without taking the time to include alt-text means that I probably will not reskeet it.

Please do better.

I was THREE when it came out & my parents took me & my older sister to it. I *still* can’t watch it. I try again every few years when I have a free week to not sleep.

I know it’s beautiful, but I was WAY too young.

I blocked them all individually (so I wouldn’t be beholden to a list) and most of them didn’t even bother to change the bios from quoting Twitter.

So stupid.

Amazing! Contamination OCD can be soooo limiting!

Also, how awesome to get fibre straight from the source?! “I love your fibre garment!”

“Thanks, it’s Francis!” (Or whatever the alpaca’s name was)

Since we can’t rely on the HHS, CDC, or FDA to say it, I will:

MAKE SURE YOU ARE VACCINATED AGAINST MEASLES. GET YOUR MMR.

Measles cases have reached their HIGHEST point since the disease WAS ELIMINATED from the United States in 2000. We are at the tipping point for the return of ENDEMIC measles.
