@skinnylatte my hotpot sauce of choice is cut chilies (I guess they're usually thai chili) in light soy sauce.

None of my friends get it but it's easily S tier chili sauce for me.

@skinnylatte that looks so freakin good. What grocery store did you find it at?

@skinnylatte honest question — when does the relief start with painful massages?

When they hit my calves it hurts so much I am literally on the verge of kicking them on pure instinct.

@anna @aral i like your chopsticks!

@aral @anna #mastomigoreng

@aral @anna look at what ya’ll made me do!

It was scrumptious though. 🤤

@aral @anna glad you were able to track it down (locally it seems?) and nice work on a first time prep! A lot of people make the mistake of making it a little too watery the first time.

Some options to make it fun:

1. Add a runny yolk fried egg
2. Chili crisps for extra heat
3. Green onions for a little veg freshness

@aral @anna a double! A class choice my good sir.

@aral @anna I prepare two packets of indomie at a time for myself very moderately 😋

@aral @anna since you mentioned, it’s not nearly the same thing at all but indomie’s mi goreng which can be found in most places reeeealllly hits the spot for Malaysian/Indonesian when the cravings come to wreck my day.

@aral @anna I’d imagine they’d maintain their streak of being around for a bit longer 😊. London’s malaysian food scene is entirely unlike the rest of Europe!

@anna @cendawanita @happydisciple @spacehobo @clanwilliam we stopped by London on our euro tour honeymoon nearly 8 years ago and I’m so glad to hear Roti King still exists and in the same hole in the wall location! We’re going to visit again soon and I’m saving ALL of these suggestions! (I’ll squeeze in a jacket potato meal somewhere in there 😉)

@rbellinger IME, Marketplace is roughly 50% less spammy/scammy than Craigslist 🤷.

@mekkaokereke “I agree with Musk on…” is my preferred way of expressing this.

@molly0xfff @usul Is this true even with tools like Sendy that uses Amazon SES?

@liztai secondary question — why isn’t it more normal outside of SEA to eat rice meals with a spoon AND fork?

How do you push every grain of rice on your plate into your spoon?

My takeaway is that Americans just don’t clean their plates.

@liztai Freddi Fish 3: The Case of the Stolen Conch Shell.

Still the hardest game I’ve played to this day.

@liztai a tornado just hit Houston and I'm incredibly grateful that I have family here I can stay with while our power's out.

In the moment, I didn't even have to think twice about this privilege. Meanwhile there are thousands of people who are having to find their way to temporary cooling centers in the city to avoid heat stroke.

@heycaseywattsup why not just use any old newsletter service and send people ICS files semi-manually?

Eventbrite also doesn't require signup for attendees, though RSVPing is a bit more involved since you have to "buy" tickets.

@annika 🤣🤣 I haven't seen anyone with the sword post-event. Must've taken at least $200 to get it.
