Almost as if it’s some kind of federated space…

Oh yeah that’s right. Been a couple years since I had a moto but still those motions were genius.

I def miss the twist for flashlight. I have a pixel now which I hate but it has a feature to tap the back twice. I use it for my flashlight but it doesn’t compare

I actually know Martin in real life and worked with him for almost a year and he’s almost exactly like his Guilfoyle character. He probably was Bill as a young person lol. The only difference is he’s super sweet but still has that dead pan sense of fuck you humor.

Unreal was def in rotation but quake was always our preference.

Did not know that. That makes sense.

Martin Starr is too cool now lol. Freaks and geeks might be hilarious with all the same actors now.

Moto 5g stylus has both. I just bought my daughter one for Christmas. The downside is using a moto phone which have gone downhill imo since the Nexus 6. But my daughter is 10 and just wants a phone with a stylus for drawing stuff and it was only $99 with my fi plan so why not?

I loved the expanse, maybe more than books. But even the books just got drawn out and I lost interest. With how closely the show followed the books I’m worried the show would just fall off for me like the books.

Quake 3 arena on Dreamcast. 4 player split screen with low gravity and unlimited ammo turned on was something that controlled me and my group of friends lives for years. Not the best game ever to some but definitely to me. Also to get the low gravity and ammo unlocks you had to play a huge maze on the vmu screen. We spent hours mapping out those mazes 1 square inch at a time. They were literally enormous but you could only see 1 inch at a time on that tiny but genius vmu. We even carried our controllers everywhere just in case a game broke out at a party. Each controller was customized with sharpies and shit too. Miss those days so much.

French History blog. Been reading it for years.

He’s big in Japan

I actually grew up near where blind melon were from. Got to see them a few times in small clubs. Drugs are fun until they’re not…

Been doing it every morning for 42 years

I’m back on “Robbin the hood” from sublime. Old but fantastic.

About 7 for myself although I’ve actually eaten 15 and not had the same experience. Depends on the strength which is hit or miss

Honestly? Ate enough mushrooms to annihilate my ego and realized my self worth. I don’t recommend that technique but it worked for me.

That’s fair then. I’m just blown away at that price tag though.

That’s what I suspected. Definitely put them back in the pot after draining over low heat for like ten minutes. That will remove the moisture. The butter and milk are the only moisture you want really. I also melt the butter and whisk it into the milk then add them together slowly as I mash. That way you can get the consistency where you want. You can’t be certain how much water is still in them so sometimes it takes a bit less than you planned but this way the ratio of butter to milk is consistent no matter how much or little you needed.

Measure everything. I use a fancy cooking scale I got for Christmas and I weigh the potatoes after peeling and then adjust my usual amount of ingredients to the weight of the potatoes. Plus you might be over or under boiling the potatoes. You don’t want them mushy but also not too hard. I usually test it with a fork. If I can stab the chunk in the water with a fork and pick it up it isn’t finished, but if I stab it and almost falls apart then it is good. I also soak them in water for hours before cooking to remove some of the starch, might help, might not but I do it. I also cut them in to consistently sized chunks before boiling so each potato is of similar consistency. Also gotta use the right type of potato. Golden will get mushy easily but russet is more forgiving.

Also, this is important. After you drain the potatoes put them back in the pot and cook over low heat to remove the excess moisture. That’s prolly why they’re gooey. If you immediately start mixing them after draining they’ll have too much water.
