How do you cook the livers? I’ve tried doing it once before, but the texture was not my favorite like mushy and grainy in the wrong ways. Is that normal or did I just not prep them right?

I want to like this and get it from a local butcher, but I’m willing to accept that liver isn’t my dish. I just feel like I messed up the sourcing/freshness or preparation.

I can definitely understand this as it was my opinion until I had a great bowl of pho. Any “good” bowl of pho is just as good as a bad bowl, but a great bowl is one of the most comforting noodle bowls IMO.

Also, I think pho with expectations going in is probably gonna disappoint. I started searching for good pho on my own before I really had an interest in ramen. Whenever I was taken to ramen shops on a recommendation I was mildly disappointed. Had some great ramen when I had no expectations at a place I went to on a whim.

Last thought, the toppings for pho go with my palate better than ramen toppings. So, my unpopular opinion is pho toppings are better than ramen toppings and fish cake is not good. 😅

Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer.

The book felt like a constant epiphany. I wanted to rekindle my relationship with nature and it helped me understand land stewardship in a way that I wasn’t able to grasp. The author connects nature and science so well that nature’s magic doesnt get lost in the scientific rigour. It also doesn’t shame the reader for their past or background, and was thoughtful and optimistic. The audio book is also read by the author which is great.

Is that a 3d printed lamp mod for the middle one? Does it work well enough to read by?

Thanks for the info! An “interview” process makes me nervous.

When younger I was so confused by the Lynch version, but the visuals of gluttony, purity, capitalism, and overall vastness in the scenery fascinated me.

I do hope someday we figure out interdimensional travel so we can find a universe where the Jodorowsky film was made. Still we have some art by H.R. Giger, that looks incredible, from the effort.

I’ve really enjoyed Jerbora! It does crash some, but it felt very natural to me and curating a good sub page has made me really love scrolling.
