My family does a green jello with sour cream spread on top. More than one new person to holiday dinner has thought it was whipped cream and got a bit of a jump scare. Easier to tell something is funky when we fully commit and put shredded cheddar cheese on top…

Aye

Entirely joking and half hoping to find people who were also hyped for new music, sorry if that didn’t come across. Missing the r/muse subreddit but I can’t go back to that site. The connection to Twilight/50 Shades doesn’t bother me, I don’t even mind Neutron Star Collision and that’s explicitly for Twilight lol.

If you want more of this energy from MCR check out what they did for the When We Were Young festival in 2022. Merch, old age makeup, and an encore consisting of “Vampires Will Never Hurt You” followed by “Vampire Money.”

Don’t you dare come for Muse while I’m hyped for a new single coming soon 😭

I hadn’t heard about Tokyo yet, thanks! Immediately wishlisted it.

I loved Coffee Talk! I’ve got the sequel downloaded and ready to go. Va-11 Hall-a is also great and in a similar style.

I always forget how cursed pre-beard Riker looks 😶

Yeeeep. I did this. Very disheartening after spending the time with a Dremel to modify the back panel enough for it to fit.

My childhood cats hated their bells so much they learned how to abuse the breakaway safety clasps on their collars and get them off entirely. Sneaky indeed.

I think it might be a bell, but definitely some kind of collar accessory thing.

That was a fascinating read, thank you for sharing! The fact that Tolkien’s world can be analyzed to this degree and still make sense is absolutely mind boggling to me.

I was thinking very finely ground parsley or basil would make that color. But I’ve never seen either that powderized.

I’ve been driving myself insane for 10 minutes over this; what is the garnish?

I’m close! SES Song of Eternity is happy to meet a sibling, if not a twin.

Yeah it’s #2 I have the problem with. If I’m not there when it happens the smell diffuses out into the house and lingers even once the source is disposed of. I think half the problem is my cats make no attempt to bury it with the pellets where before with the litter they would entirely cover it. I’m surprised to hear people had problems with smell with clay litter, never noticed it myself. It was the dust that drove me to switch (plus cost and environmental stuff, but if I’m being honest the dust is what finally got me to research alternatives)

Do you have a good solution for the smell? I recently switched to wood pellets and I swear I can’t enter the room if my cat has recently used the box.

This is probably on the right track, but just wanted to add a little detail. Elastic deformation is when something fully springs back to its original shape. Plastic deformation has some spring back, but some portion of the deformation remains after the force is removed. Unless of course you bend it to the point of breaking. I’d imagine that means that in the brittle zone in the image there’s virtually no deformation, just force applied until a break occurs.

Excellent username! I needed a reminder that losing is Fun™️ this morning.

Can’t wait to see if the negroni encased in a giant fake ice cube was the climax of that bit or if there’s something even more delightfully unhinged waiting for us.
