not Roman

Koln: am I a joke to you?

Ya exactly this. When used well it enhances the boss. When overused it becomes annoying and cliched.

Is O’Brien going to beam up a Q, store his powers in the buffer, then finishing beaming his leftover mortal coil to the holodeck with no safety protocols to fight to the death against Worf’s Skeletor? I want to say yes.

This looks really really good, crusty on the outside and soft on the inside.

Reminds me of those thin rustic slices with big sugar that you see at fancy brunch joints.

Not sure what they’re called but this is the best picture I could find.

This is how I know how to make it, however the Latin market now sells tomato sauce packets that are about 200 grams and I plan to adjust the recipe to use them and skip all the freezing/thawing of the extra tomato sauce.

1 cup rice

1 drizzle of oil

half can of tomato sauce (these cans are 14.5 ounces)

2 1/2 cups chicken broth

1/2 medium onion, minced

1-2 garlic cloves, minced

1 boneless chicken thigh, cut up or cubed

3/4 tsp salt, sprinkle of white pepper

  1. Pour the oil into a medium sauce pan over medium low heat.
  2. Once oil warms, add rice and stir to get rice coated in oil.
  3. Once a few grains begin to brown, add the onion and stir to get the onion coated.
  4. Once a few onions begin to sweat, add the garlic and chicken and stir to get everything coated, then increase heat to medium
  5. Stir regularly until you can't see raw chicken; ideally everything is glistening with some light browning.
  6. Add the tomato sauce and stir until coated Use the chicken broth to rinse tomato sauce out of the can
  7. Pour the broth and tomato sauce mixture into the pan and bring to a boil (increase to medium-high or just wait)
  8. Add the salt and pepper now.
  9. Once at a low boil, put a lid on it and move it to a back burner on lowest heat for 25 minutes.

Reminds me of Absolution Gap and its insistence on brane cosmology theory. Most of the book is a side quest for a transmitter to an adjacent “brane” having the deus ex machina. I haven’t seen “brane” used instead of dimension/timeline since.

and then that Cato MFer ups and kills himself just before I was gonna kill him with kindness. Can you believe that? What a dick right?

How I imagine Caesar retold the story over dinner.

I made it 🙂

Use soft butter put 1-2 tbsp of it into a small bowl, depending on how big your bread is etc.

From an old jar of dried thyme leaves I’m trying to use up, I sprinkle some into my hand and rub it together until it gives a smell again. Tastes way better with fresh if you have it.

Incrementally add enough rubbed thyme into the butter and stir it until it looks good. Then stir in some Parmesan cheese, but not so much that it stiffens up (I just add more butter when that happens).

No one ever think to give him the nickname of Sybian Soong?

I’ve made a terrible mistake

Doppelsöldner has entered the chat 😎

Doppelsöldner ("double-mercenaries", "double-pay men",[1] from German doppel- meaning double, Söldner meaning mercenary) were Landsknechte in 16th-century Germany who volunteered to fight in the front line, taking on extra risk, in exchange for double payment.

Chili looks really good. I can see the little bits of onion and tomato glistening in the sauce 🤤

 

The emperors of the late fourth and fifth centuries then proceeded to invite people into the house, promising its shelter, if only they would help them light one more fire – and then when the house was burned down and everyone was left on the cold ground, they tried to shift the blame onto the very guests they had invited.

I hope this works, the file didn't upload the first time I tried. These are the cool weapons I've used up to chapter 4: wintry rapier, azure dragon crescent glaive, booster glaive, and etiquette.

This game is great 🤌

At least irregular verbs are drifting away, that’s a pleasant surprise.

B5 gang, you're my only hope.

 

why's it so hard 😭

 

I swear I remember they cut directly to Obrien and Data with incredulous "did he just say saucer sep" looks on their faces.

 

One of my absolute favorites and I'm hoping folks want to talk about it.

Hands down my most reread book. Me, an atheist, never imagined a twisty/puzzly novel about the life and times of future space jesus would speak to me so deeply.

The prose is multidimensional and layered with meanings that only come into focus once you know where it's going.

Some of my favorite examples:

  • The title of chapter 1
  • Severian first finding his dog.
  • Thecla's story of a fortune teller predicting she would sit on a throne.
  • The ending of book 1
  • The ending of book 2

Any other trek fans delighted by Group of Seventeen in book four, realizing it was 10 years ahead of the TNG episode "Darmok"?
