apparently it has been 1,052 days since the Lions have lost two games in a row

@vaporeon_ it was a social media platform whose popularity fizzled out really quickly for some reason, I don't remember why. The point was that you could only engage with people within a five mile radius from you

It was very popular on college campuses

@vaporeon_ masto, i think?

@amy I don't use Bluesky so I can't comment. However, I will suggest that you are Yik Yak because its popularity was, I would say, short-lived

@aescling thanks for the explanation, nerd

@aescling we didn't get too deep into it it was just explained as ideas in combat with each other

@vaporeon_ you built and hosted a website that works on netscape you are not stupid

@vaporeon_ reported for telling lies

the edfn voice chat is crazy because one minute im hearing the dumbest shit i ever heard in my life (affectionate) and then the next im being taught the basics of Hegelian dialetics

@aescling I was once explaining to her the formulation of classical mechanics from Landau & Lifshitz' book and she followed along and asked engaging questions that reflected true engagement and like, girl. I spent years learning this shit, at least pretend to be struggling

@coriander "16 years ago" jesus fucking christ

my genuine reaction when @aescling explains to me a very simple linguistics concept:

@maple for such a kind gesture your report has been retracted.

@maple in this case, that place is the trash bin

@maple sorry, i think it's terrible. also, reported for not thinking it's terrible

@maple yes c++ slander on my timeline, inject it into my VEINS ​

@vaporeon_ this time before I added minced garlic I sauteed some turkey sausage I needed to get rid of and that was an excellent addition

@vaporeon_
1) boil 2-3 servings of spaghetti noodles in a quart of water for about a minute less than time said on the box (I just use 1/3 of a box of noodles)
2) beforehand (or if you're confident in your knife skills, as the water is boiling) mince 6-12 cloves of garlic depending on your amount of patience and motivation at the time. Or just use 3-4 tbsp of jarred garlic
3) save a ladle's worth of pasta water before draining noodles
4) melt 1 tbsp butter in a pan on medium heat, once it starts bubbling add red pepper flakes to taste and minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds or so. Don't let it burn
5) crank heat to low. add various umami sauces/sources. My favorite combo is marmite + nutritional yeast, but any combination of soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, and maybe even white miso works. Use a total of 1.5 - 2.5 tbsps to taste.
6) add pasta water and noodles and stir til reduction and even coating.
7) add noodles to bowl. Crack 5-10 cracks of black pepper and a squeeze of half a lemon (1-2 tbsp lemon juice). If you have green onions add that.
8) add shredded parmesan cheese until you're worried you've added too much, and then add more
9) yum

I am so glad I learned about garlic noodles
