When I think about it, I've had many more of these experiences than I realized before.

Asides just flying out to the Aleutian islands which is always a risk. I'll have to go with being attacked by a mother moose when I was 14 or so with my grandma. We gave it a wide berth, did everything right but she must have been terrorized recently (it was near a shitty city). We were charged on a narrow trail. I had to choose between pushing my grandmother over to run faster, or getting trampled. She was an active elder and everything. But not as fast as a 14 year old. So obviously I got trampled.

I remember the force knocking me flat, sliding forward on my back, and the huge silhouette of moose belly against the cloudy sky. Before she started stomping and spinning, which I just went fetal position.

She ended up stomping through my thigh that first stomp, didn't break anything (idk how). She missed my nethers by about 3 inches and missed my artery by about 1/4 an inch.

Luckily my grandmother was a calm cool collected doctor. She knew it missed the artery and assured me I wouldn't die the ten minute walk back to the car. Didn't really calm me down.

That's one of the predominant experiences 🙃

I've always heard great things, and i loved him in fight club, and more importantly Tenacious D; Pick of Destiny. I am looking forward to looking up this album, because i would describe my music interests as similar as yours.

They kind of do, but it really adds to it. Sort of like a corn dumpling almost. But it's best to just crumble them up and mix them in slowly from the top of the soup. Then only the bottom ones get soggy, and you get a little crunch left from what you pull off the top of the pile.

I personally started pressing my own tortillas recently, and they're a little thick and they turn into literally corn dumplings.

I second the taco soup. I call it tortilla soup and do it a little differently, as they stated. It is really simple and really quite delicious.

I make it with a whole chicken which is fairly cheap, in a slow cooker, hard to mess up. But just the other night i made it with some plain chicken breasts i picked up that day. Butterfly cut them seared them off and finished them in the soup.

Three or four cups of Chicken stock.

I omit the taco seasoning and just use healthy amount of cumin and a little chili powder. Salt (depending on salt content of chicken stock), pepper, garlic powder.

Cans of corn, black beans, garbanzo beans, roasted tomato.

I recently started sauteeing a heap of mushrooms chopped to bits and adding that too.

Finish with a squirt of lime, some cheese, and tortilla chips, or i sometimes crisp up some regular corn tortillas and cut them up in it.

Super simple, tasty. I personally can eat it throughout the week.

I cannot, for the life of me, get my picture to post of my favorite tree. I resized it as low grain as possible and cropped it, then screen shot it...still won't post. It is simply a birch tree, a great big mother in front of my cabin. Sadly when they relocated my driveway, they dug out a portion of her roots, and she is now dying. It's also not a great season to show off her girth and beauty. But i wanted to share, my literal favorite tree.

Aw too bad, just curious. Looks heartbreaking!

Wow, that crescendo was very striking. Like a frozen spike grew right next to my spine. From 1:30 to 2:00 it started as a splinter and grew. Tragic.

Have you seen this movie? I'm curious.

I was taught its only in relation to spending. You can be a conservative democrat, if you believe in traditional democratic values but also believe we should spend money conservatively A liberal believes we should spend money liberally to achieve those results. It's like two spectrums overlayed. A graph of political identity.

Sure especially these days where everything is extremism in American politics it doesnt seem that way. Everything is right wing or left wing.

I remember when it was rude to talk about politics or religion. Everyone was allowed to believe what they want and still be friends with each other. Crazy.

Not taking a stance, just saying what i was taught at least. Times have changed since i was educated.

 

Any Community fans out there? How did i do?

I spent way too long making his face, but i think it turned out pretty good. It was also a fun play through, role playing as Abed. Just really wish you could have at least like three vocal ranges you could pick.

Bless you, you wonderful human being.

That's why you gotta pay them the big bucks, because they care. I'll happily pay them to do things right.

 

It seems every month I am discovering a new food allergy attacking my gut biome. I am getting nervous that my next step is going to be to axe the gluten.

I am already lactose-intolerant. Most acidic things as well (i.e. tomatoes, pineapple, onion family including garlic). The latest is animal fat, no more lamb, oxtail, ribs, or ribeye steaks.

I'm fairly diverse and I'd call myself an accomplished home cook. I typically eat pretty well rounded I would say. No breakfast, or maybe a swig of kefir. Sandwiches for lunch everyday. Not big on sweets. No soda, lots of water. Dinner of meat and rice, with a side of sauteed veg is a typical easy night. I'll make my own pasta, stews and soups are fairly regular too. Try to eat one vegetarian dinner a week.

Is there any hope to have anything good left if I was forced to cut out gluten as well? Or am i doomed to blandness?

Does anyone have any foody websites they visit with such dietary restrictions? It seems i can't find anything quite niche enough that doesn't go full vegan (I understand I have to substitute some things myself in any recipes. But when 80%< is substituted I don't think that counts as following the recipe)

Or is there any cuisine in particular that seems to be easier to make gluten free?

Just looking for help in general here, any advice.
