@Thomas god i hope so
question of the day
@hafnia@weirder.earth thanks!
& yeah i’d say for food preservation the average person knows like, vaguely that it exists & also can put things in a freezer so it’s not hard to be above average 😂 but I learned canning from my grandmother & some cultured methods through my parents (yoghurt, sourdough bread, & kombucha are all homemade staples at their house) plus like, candymaking just for fun. So i think i do pretty well there!

@hafnia@weirder.earth also cooking! in particular adapting things to accommodate disabled/chronically ill peoples dietary restrictions & also a whole variety of types of food preservation
Food is something I do seem to have a knack for, but mostly I credit starting at a young age & having lots of opportunities to practice in a wide variety of contexts
@edebill we only plant fall crocuses fortunately haha
@ljwrites Carto is such a fun little game! I also really enjoyed having a canonically nonverbal protagonist instead of the more common ‘silent protagonist’ who is nonetheless implied to speak
@technomancy @ljwrites well there’s gaymer but that ones not always applicable for other reasons
@cassolotl@queer.party “I am shamed by something” is the closest you’re going to get I think?
There are a lot of emotions where “thing makes me feel [x]” can’t be expressed with the “I ___ something” framing, which does kinda make sense, because generally direct objects are things the subject is acting on, not responding to! Eg. happy, excited, unsure, pride, worry, nervous, etc all require at least one extra word (frequently “about”) to make that construction work
covid (good news)
@RussSharek kinda hoping people proudly announcing their flu shots continues after the pandemic ends

@Cyborgneticz i love that setup
@edebill we’re closer to late march/early april weather wise but it’s fooled the cherry trees at least

@greyor no it’s fine! Thanks for the link, I’ll check it out
@greyor the goofy shit is more fun to translate I’m sure :D
And it’s cool that he’s written enough stuff that you can have like, an ongoing translation relationship? I imagine there are all sorts of writing quirks of his that you’ve gotten used to since you started
food - not veg
@Cyannin nice! Do you portion & freeze after you grind or?
@greyor well let us know if you figure it out! I’m definitely curious now
