What is the worst thing you've eaten lately?

[(Anonymous)]

I just ate the worst trail mix I have ever tried. I spit out it.

I made some oatmeal a couple weeks ago that was really really good, with cocoa and peanut butter. But it was maybe just a little too sweet, so I thought to offset that with some sea salt.

Somehow accidentally dumped about half a tbsp of salt into the very small bowl.

Ate it anyway because I probably needed salt too, but man. I wished I had left well enough alone.

Vegetable soup with some kind of nameless sludge, hopefully pureed veggies, in the bottom of the mug. One mouthful was more than enough.

[tabaqui]

Damn. That's bad trail mix!

I was making mushroom goulash. I forgot I was making mushroom goulash. It turns out that burned mushrooms are not very tasty at all.

Chinese food from a restaurant near work that made me really nauseous.

My Mum's version of a Victoria Sponge cake that was cut up into squares and thrown into a bowl with a dollop of jam. She keeps thinking she can bake - like I would never tell her that it was bad, but it's become impossible to avoid eating them and would end eating them stale after a week.

The coffee I had this morning because I was so sleepy that I didn't notice the milk was chunky until it was too late.

Some burnt up, freezer tasting Sonic. I ate it because Sonic is expensive now.

Weekend Plans

[kaijinscendre]

What is everyone doing this weekend?

I am visiting my sister. We are going to hopefully buy the plane tickets and hotel room for our trip to Philly and DC in October. We'll also play some video games and maybe do some shopping.

Re: Weekend Plans

[pantswarrior]

Never been to Philly (yet) but mmm DC. I want to go back there sometime and actually look around, I went there for all of a weekend a couple years ago and just the couple blocks around my hotel was neat.

This weekend...probably staying close to my bun-bun who has taken a turn for the worse. Every so often I have to calm him down so he stops rolling over in a panic, then get him settled on his feet again. Did that all night the last two nights so I haven't slept and am not in any shape to go anywhere anyway. Got a lot of fanfic editing done today though and am about to upload the epilogue to one story... think I may try to finish another story I started about 7 years ago when my health was so distracting I could only manage about a paragraph at a time.

Re: Weekend Plans

[(Anonymous)]

My sister's bridal shower is this weekend, so I have to grab a box of chocolates or something to gift her for that. Other than that I am way behind on some writing work I picked up, so I'll probably be doing that the rest of the weekend.

Re: Weekend Plans

[philstar22]

Lots and lots of sleep and rest. Between my 10 block walk to and from court on Wednesday and then packing and carrying two heavy suitcases down a flight of stairs on Thursday, my back is really painful. It has been spasming all day. So 'll be taking lots of meds and staying in bed as much as possible.

Spending time with my kitty.

And then watching episodes of Babylon 5 and Doctor Who. Not sure what eps yet, just some of my favorites.

Re: Weekend Plans

[greghousesgf]

going back to my favorite karaoke bar on Sunday after a very long covid induced absence. (I have to wait till Sunday because the only thing I don't like about this place is one guy who works there, but he never works on Sundays.)

Re: Weekend Plans

[(Anonymous)]

I'm going to a yarn store that's having a yard sale tomorrow - lots of stuff for two bucks a pop.
Afterwards, I will have lunch out.

Re: Weekend Plans

[(Anonymous)]

Trip planning is always fun, i hope you can book your things :D

I'm going to the cinema for the first time since covid, to watch jungle cruise. I'm fully vaccinated so I should be fine. Watching in original dub, so hopefully not a full theater.
Sunday is my godsons 10th birthday Party

Favorite Fan-animations?

[(Anonymous)]

be it animatics or fully done animated videos.

Re: Favorite Fan-animations?

[(Anonymous)]

I've been watching and re-watching a LOT of GameGrump animations, even though I very rarely ever watch their full gameplay episodes.

My favorites rewatches are:

Toad Wars

Laura Schmitt sitcoms (me and my friend quote this one a stupid amount)
https://youtu.be/wTimGt-e73g?t=7

Sugar Crisps bear video

This bioshock one!

Re: Favorite Fan-animations?

I like James Farr's work (it's on YouTube) when it happens. His Nintendo/Star Wars parodies are funny, and he sometimes animates JackSepticEye's or ZackScottGames' let's plays (I was greatly amused by his animation for ZSG's Animal Crossing, since I had been following his AC playthrough)

Re: Favorite Fan-animations?

"Switch" by Tyson Hesse.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a6GEEi67atc&noapp=1

Really funny animated short about indecision and its consequences.

Does Red vs Blue count? Because Red Vs Blue.

Why Am I So Jaded ABout Books

[(Anonymous)]

Why is it so had to find books that sound interesting to me? Particularly newly published books, and especially science fiction and fantasy (my favorite genres that I've been reading since I was a kid). I browse bookstores or Goodreads looking for recommendations and so many books just seem so predictable, or just fundamentally uninteresting.

Like, with science fiction - it feels like most books can be slotted into a small handful of categories. There's the self-consciously literary science fiction, often slipstream-influenced and dealing with contemporary issues of identity. There's the near-future science fiction, the books about astronauts in realistic near-earth spaceships or about ecological collapse. And there's the endless adventure riffs, which rarely have any really original ideas and just move the same tired science-fictional concepts around in slightly different configurations, each time with snarkier protagonists. And all of it is just totally uninteresting to me. I just don't care. And the same patterns are true, with some details changed, with fantasy.

It's just such a slog. And it's frustrating because it feels like there must be the kinds of books that I want to read out there still - it feels like they're just buried under this pile of things I fundamentally don't care about, but that apparently dominate the tastes of the reading public.

I don't even know what I'm asking for here - just complaining, I guess. Bah humbug get off my lawn, etc, etc, etc.
