@Lady ban and bann are related to boon and not bonus which makes sense once u know about the rest of this

@njion interesting! i imagine it produces a much cooler foam than a traditional steam wand, since all the air you are adding is room temp

i’ve used similar hacks to whip cream so i suppose it logically makes sense it works for milk foaming also but i’d never considered it

@njion okay tell me more about your french press milk foaming technique! i’ve never heard of this one

@rabbithearth spuds are potatoes in our dialect and i am also familiar with fried cornmeal balls being called hushpuppies, so i would assume it was a similar dish but made with potato instead of corn? but i’ve never actually heard it used that i can recall

@soph_sol @kate yeah it’s difficult to find r-values for non-construction materials but wikipedia cites cotton batting insulation as having an r-value of 3.7 per inch which is roughly concordant with the r-values this quilter provided: https://quilting-tidbits.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-choosing-the-best-quilt-batting-for-your-project/

no idea what one needs as a minimum r-value for a trivet tho so i’ll leave that part of the math to you 😅

@infernusgoatus looks like some sort of bagworm moth, they’re known for building their cocoons out of plant matter like that

@weirdestate okay besides the staircase, which ontop of being glaringly unsafe is also weirdly organic, like when you pour wax down an anthill? this house is actually super cool! hope it goes to someone who appreciates its character
