I have a spray nozzle attachment on my sink. It has enough hose to reach the other side of the sink—about 6 feet short of the stove. In my kitchen, even if the stove was right next to the sink I couldn’t fill a pot from there.

I mean, the boiling part is pretty easily solved by waiting for it to cool down. Otherwise, there’s always the option to use a jug of some sort to empty most of it. Of course the opposite is true, where you can use a jug to fill the pot—something I did last night because I didn’t want to slosh around 3 qts of water in…

Sounds very familiar... almost like we heard that about some sort of federal response unit back in 2018.

Ironically, once I pull the meat out of the bag I lose the patience I had just displayed waiting for it to cook for several hours. If I’m searing more than one steak, it’s getting a half assed effort at that point.

I use food saver rolls with my vacuum sealer, and because I’m woefully lazy, I don’t try to reuse them, but I see no reason why you couldn’t, so long as you make a nice clean cut when opening them. There are also silicone bags on the market that seem to work just fine. Possibly a little tougher to get as much air out,…

Yeah, the toughest part with cooking steak sous vide is that most home stoves don’t generate enough heat to get a good, hard sear quickly enough to enjoy the benefits of the cooking method. I know mine doesn’t, much to my chagrin.

Steaks are good to cook sous vide if you’re a novice cook and bought a really expensive cut that you don’t want to screw up. Or if you have a really thick one that you want to make sure gets cooked through. Otherwise for something like a NY strip, it’s kind of a waste.

My high school chemistry teacher taught me that, by simply eating some chalk.

The craziest thing is that I can fully believe he was anti-trans before then, but only decided to be an outspoken dipshit about it because he’s pissed at her. Unlike other people on the right who somehow can only develop the tiniest amount of empathy when it affects them personally (like the Cheneys and same-sex…

I just googled that one, and as much as I hate the NY Post, that did lead me to another story that explains a lot. Apparently this summer one of the other children that same mother raised came out as transgender, and the reasoning she gave on her petition to change her name was “ Gender identity and the fact that I no…

When I schedule a doctor’s appointment, I always schedule it for first thing in the morning, that way I don’t have to burn a full day of sick time, and so I can get TB breakfast.

Never heard about this one. Normally I’d say that’s absurd and it couldn’t have happened, but it is Elon we’re talking about.

What it really boils down to, like most things, is curation. Some people go out there and follow every account they come across (usually in hopes they follow back so they can up their followers), which inundates you with nonsense—the amount of threaded replies I see that say something like “that just earned you a…

Sure, if I had an air fryer*, or if I was waiting to get home to eat Taco Bell rather than in my car.

How convenient that right after Twitter backtracked their efforts to remove Elonjets’ visibility, there was a “stalker” after him. What are the odds, despite all the information Musk provided-that-totally-isn’t-doxxing, no one ever finds this person because Musk paid for it to happen?

I actually like the breakfast burritos they serve, but the only TB near me that serves breakfast doesn’t open until 9--an hour after I’ve already started working, and almost two after I would have been able to hit them up.

The seasoning’s pretty good, but the fries themselves aren’t particularly great--usually limp and soggy. But what really matters is that they’re basically a means of conveyance for nacho cheese, and that’s the reason to get them.

I just block the account of any ad I see for free.

I was at a Guardians game this summer, and went to buy a hot dog. The concession stand closest to me would only take orders made and paid for on a mobile device, or orders made in person and paid for in cash. It was incredibly dumb. Instead of being able to order the stupid thing from the guy standing right in front…
