this makes me wonder how much longer a towel could be used if it were promptly dried after use, rather than put up on a hook where some of it dries sorta and the rest of it clumps.

even when you are clean from showering, you are still covered in delicious skin, refreshing moisture, and things that thrive in the presence of both.

can we put the extra 30 hours on the end of each year as a formless blob of ‘time off’?

nah hold on it has to be

Could you give some details? Maybe an invite link? I can only seem to find expired links to any EV Nova discord that google turns up.

if you ever feel so inclined, all you need to make your own tortillas at home is:

1. masa flour aka specially treated corn flour

2. a stovetop and a pan for cooking

3. a plastic food storage bag

4. something with a flat bottom, ideally transparent

5. water

the bag of flour typically has instructions for how much flour and water to mix. you can mix it by hand and form it into balls by hand. the size of the balls only matters if you care about the tortillas being “the right size”.

From there, you press a ball flat, toss it on an already hot pan over medium heat, flip it after a couple of minutes, and remove it after a minute more. to press the ball flat, place it under your flat-bottomed transparent thing and mash on it until it looks tortilla-shaped enough for you.

the plastic food storage bag is optional/recommended to stop the tortilla balls sticking when you press them. cut the food storage bag open along its seams and remove its zipper if it has one. what you have left is a single sheet of plastic with a seam/hinge in the middle.

it might be sounding like a lot but it’s really just:

• mix flour into wet balls

• mash flour in your “press” made of random flat dishes and a plastic bag

• cook the thing a little

• eat

if you iterate on those 4 steps a dozen times, you’ll be out like 50 cents of flour and you’ll have produced at least one satisfactory tortilla. and it’ll be so, so much better than store bought, you’ll think about it every time you have store bought tortillas therafter.

it’s hard to know the extent to which the comment represents the marriage. otoh, if one were to read their comment and leave thinking “sounds like a normal, healthy marriage to me”, that imo would be a premium red flag on the reader.

Hello Games had a similar issue with No Man’s Sky.

Having played at release, Hello Game’s issue was much less “large scope games take long to make” and much more “we explicitly lied about features that are strictly not in the game”.
