Not op, but imma be honest with you, I’m currently drunk at an airport bar and I appreciate the absolute fuck out of this tldr

Semolina is a type of flour, made from durum wheat

Not op, but for small quantities, volumetric is usually more accurate. I know a teaspoon of yeast weighs about 3 grams, but most cheap kitchen scales can’t really be trusted until you’re measuring 10 grams or or more. A teaspoon of dried oregano is so light it probably doesn’t even register on most cheap kitchen scales.

Bread is probably the least time consuming thing on that list though. There’s a whole slew of no-knead recipes out there, and it takes about 5 minutes to measure out and mix together the ingredients. After that it’s just waiting for it to rise, another 5 minutes to shape the loaf, proof it, toss it in the oven and wait till it’s done. For 10 minutes of active prep time, you can have a nice loaf of crusty white bread that’s nearly as good as something you’d find in some bougie bakery. Granted it takes a couple seconds of pre-planning since the rise/proofing times are long, but most basic no-knead recipes are super forgiving on that, and if something comes up before you’re able to bake it, you can toss your uncooked dough into the fridge for short term storage, or freeze it for long term.

There’s a variety of lunches that are cheap and insanely easy though:

• Stir fry with leftover rice, an egg, and some frozen veggies
• Sandwich with a piece of fruit or some veggies
• Leftover soup heated up on the stove (or in the microwave if ya nasty)
• Cold pasta dishes like pasta salad with leftover protein thrown on top
• Charcuterie plate with cold cuts, crackers, cheeses, and jams
• Salad with cold leftover proteins
• Leftover fried chicken straight out the fridge, as God intended

Like sure, some of these things rely on having leftovers laying around to dress up a bit, but I think that’s a reasonable thing to expect of most people.

Thanks for the explanation, that makes sense. I’ve never though of the concept of “adopt don’t shop” being a “vegan friendly” option for pet ownership, I’ve just always thought it was an obvious choice, but I get the connection now.

What does adopting vs. buying from a breeder have to do with this person’s point?

It feels like something some weird misogynist douchebag would draw up though

It’s exfoliating!

Don’t they need different space suits to board the Dragon capsule though? I thought I read something the other day saying they’d need to wait for Dragon-compatible suits to be brought up to them for that to be an option.

Yeah that isn’t what they said though

For cicadas their screaming is basically 100% “ANYONE WANNA FUCK?!?!?”

It comes in pints?!

Who hasn’t?

I don’t have a specific brand recommendation, but if you want to absolutely max out your coffee experience, try to find a local roaster or coffee shop that stocks freshly roasted whole beans. Most places like that will offer to grind beans for you too, if you don’t have your own grinder at home.

The main problem with those giant pre-ground tubs is that they’re almost certainly stale. The longer coffee sits, the more it loses flavor, or develops off-flavors, and pre-round coffee stales even quicker than whole beans. So if you can’t find anything locally roasted near you, look for whole beans with a roast date somewhere on the package, ideally within the last two weeks or so.

For those who have had the pleasure of never seeing the referenced commercial: https://youtu.be/uMwFWDIFVCU?si=NhgQ2NVTGxV1XeI2

Also the follow up parody that isn’t all that far of a stretch: https://youtu.be/CKgKPGBa9EQ?si=Brw1QPCopPMB5KOl

That’s not instant, those are tubs of pre-ground coffee.

I’d take instant over those brands made in a drip machine though.
