You always believe the latest thing presented to you, no matter how ridiculous. It was obviously the very same time travelers who masquerade as pyramid building aliens, whom are also responsible for Winnipeg, the Harlem shake, and the noble platypus. Getting all willy nilly with the coconuts, fuckin degens.

Dried beans. Their cheap AF. Nutritious AF. I make up a pot of soup every couple of days. Soak you beans the night before. Boil next day.

Start a new pot off with butter. Sauteed up onion, carrot, and/or celery(all cheap AF, all optional). Add In meat if you like. Sear outsides but don’t worry about cooking all the way through. Add chicken stock (or water) and boiled beans. Simmer covered 30 min-ish. Add in frozen spinach, cook another 5. Salt and season to taste.

Congrats! You just made a pot of bomb ass soup. For like 3$! You can eat for days off that pot. Delicious AND nutritious. Your gut likes variety, give it to it.

Rotted fruit in a barrel of brine. Our ancestors did what they had to to get by, but it’s a different age now.

Like the French and snails. Don’t tell me that’s fancy eating. Twas a plate developed by and for starving fucking peasants. When do you eat a snail? When the alternative is somehow worse.

Olives are barbarism.

What book to read?

Favorite recipe featuring beans?

Also from no country:

Carla Jean Moss: The coin don’t have no say. It’s just you.

Anton Chigurh: Well, I got here the same way the coin did.

I just want to plug criterion. They have essays on all their films that are really well done, often with the directors themselves. Also the criterion channel is amazing!

I always keep one streaming service subscribed so as not to be a total scrub, and I have a hard time imagining going back to Netflix or whatever.

They’re usually denser, often foreign films that require and reward undivided attention, but worth it imo. They often come with commentaries and interviews with the directors. Martin Scorsese for example has a bunch of content up on it.

Some teasers of curated collections they have

The router mounting is just perfection. Change nothing.

I have USI for the first time after having delt with charter my whole life. It just worked. I plugged my router into the wall and the cat5 jack that was already laid in, and it just worked. Within seconds of opening my account. As advertised.

Usually charter sends some asshole who’s definitely sober and not on any lists to do awful things to your wall. Then the speeds you do get are just straight criminal.

Love my USI. It’s the way an ISP should be. Now if we could just slice the price to something more reasonable.
