“Your face doesn’t match how you say you feel”

Wow that looks amazing!

Oh nice! I’m having to be careful with money at the moment, otherwise I’d have bought tickets for their UK tour too. I managed to see them last year with Pijn though, and they were great.

It’d be real nice if we could celebrate the fact that this is good news on an “uplifting news” community rather than devolving into whataboutism.

Oh sorry, a hob is a stove!

First off, I’m really sorry. There are a lot of things you can do just using a hob and one or two pans. One of my recent go-to meals involves frying up some vegetables (courgette/zucchini, peppers, some sweet potato etc), flavouring with some spices (cumin, dried chili) and herbs (thyme, basil) and then stiring that into some rice that’s been cooked in a saucepan with the lid on.

Add some egg and stir the rice through the vegetables in the frying pan if you want to make it egg-fried rice.

Microwaves are very efficient at heating food. Much more so than an oven or hob. They may not win awards for making things taste great but they’re incredibly useful when trying to cook with a limited budget.

I think this absolutely belongs here. Great band, great track. I love what Skindred do.

Looks like Lejek finally got their own human. Good job Lejek!

I didn’t intend to be dismissive and if my response sounded that way then I apologise.

I agree it’s difficult to be on the receiving end of vague signals, but my perspective is if there’s any annoyance or frustration it should be directed at the violent/angry men who have caused women to feel unsafe.

Helping women feel safer by tackling the violence and misogyny directed at them by men will benefit everyone.

While it might feel rough for you, it’s worth remembering that a lot of women have faced very real threats of violence for their upfront honesty.

If you’re only getting vague signals then maybe that’s the sign that she’s not fully into you.

I’d second this suggestion, I’ve used borg with rsync.net for the past 4 years and it’s been great.

I’m with you on that. I can’t listen to it too regularly because it’s emotionally draining. But this album makes me feel all the feelings.

My one greatest egret…

Glad you like it!

Thank you, I like this a lot. Will keep my eye out for the EP.

Edit: if anyone else is curious, the EP can be preordered from the band’s Bandcamp.

I’m really sorry, I had colitis and it was awful. I really hope you find some relief from it.

I thought that was just so the pocket didn’t sag during storage/display. Aren’t you meant to break that stitching? I have been 😂

My go-to *sonic/navidrome client on Android is Symfonium. It’s not free but it’s well-maintained and has all the features I need (smart playlists, artist radio, gapless playback and replaygain).

I remember when I first heard it, it didn’t immediately grip me and I put it away for a while. But when I came back to it I was blown away, now it’s one of my favourite albums. Along with You Fail Me it’s an absolute masterpiece.
