These chilli oils are generally designed to be tasty but not necessarily very hot. I used to eat lao gan ma out of the jar and this stuff is probably not as spicy (this brand appears to be marketed at westeners).
I did get one made locally brand at some Asian shop a couple years ago that was definitely on the much hotter side. Wish I remembered the name. Took me over a year to finish it. Strong onion presence which I love
For real. I estimated I saved about $20 on a 3/4 refill. Worth the detour. Especially if you're doing long drives. Hopefully the cycle will be coming down next time you need to fill up! I'm kind of annoyed because I thought low crude oil prices = low fuel prices overall but nope, they're still going to go up when the petrol station cartel decides to...
I filled up yesterday after I forgot on Wednesday and a whole chunk of places had upped their prices overnight. 20c is one thing but 50-60c is an easy minimum $20 saving on a full tank. Luckily there was no queue at the place yesterday, I once went to fill up at the last cheap station in the western suburbs a few months ago and it took 20 mins just to get to the fuel pump. Tensions were running high with traffic blocking the side street and what have you.
I have managed to shift to a more comfy position and get the joy of stroking her and ruffling her chin every so often. This is life 🥰
Success, I am now trapped on the couch by a warm and purry feline. ... I'm just not in the most comfortable position to hold but I mustn't move the cat.
I gave her a Churu knockoff earlier to improve the mood all around, I think I might actually steal her cat bed and wear it to see if she'll come snuggle on the couch
The blues are here even with soxcat around. Some sad news lately that just seems to put a damper on things and my lack of progress lately on the thesis ain't good.
Try again tomorrow... Gonna disappear into a chip packet for now and ponder AI taking over everything again after watching some VEO 3 clips.
Also I can't get over how unbelievably soft sox's fur is. And she still smells like baby powder. Even though she only eats dine crap at home...
I don't think soxcat would be very nutritious as she is about 90% fur. But yeah some snuggles would be nice (although not helping me actually address part of the cause of my malaise which is not finishing this stupid thesis)
whimpers into the void instead as the void is scary and can retaliate at times
(and pizza won't make me feel better :c back to feeling not really keen on food...)
Yes, I don't think she was too happy at all about having to move and was certainly upset about it at the beginning. But I think food and warmth trumps a lot of misgivings and she definitely remembers me now even though I'm not in the same place.
brief lap shot
When she was younger and she lived in the same apartment complex at me she was pretty chilled out even on the first day, though it took her longer to get comfy enough for lap time.
This time around she's started off hot but then gone a lot further. I guess there's not much else for her to do in this tiny apt either...
Do you think that might be heritage lichen?
